Desa Karangrau di Kecamatan Banyumas memiliki lahan subur yang sebagian besar ditanami durian hasil persilangan lokal dan Musangking. Pertanian, terutama budidaya durian, menjadi mata pencaharian utama warga. Para petani tergabung dalam Gapoktan Sumber Makmur dan KWT Setia Tani yang berperan dalam pengelolaan hasil panen. Namun, terdapat beberapa kendala seperti keterbatasan pengetahuan teknik budidaya modern, perawatan tradisional tanpa dukungan teknologi, serta sistem irigasi yang belum optimal. KWT Setia Tani juga menghadapi tantangan dalam pengolahan produk turunan durian akibat minimnya pengetahuan diversifikasi. Padahal, durian berpotensi diolah menjadi roti, selai, tepung, hingga pemanfaatan limbah sebagai bahan bakar alternatif. Melalui peningkatan pengetahuan, teknologi, dan inovasi pengolahan, Desa Karangrau berpeluang menjadi sentra durian unggulan yang mampu meningkatkan nilai tambah dan kesejahteraan masyarakatnya.Desa Karangrau di Kecamatan Banyumas memiliki lahan subur yang sebagian besar ditanami durian hasil persilangan lokal dan Musangking.

The development of food commodities in Banten province, with geographical conditions where the area is mostly agricultural and with a fairly large population, has an important role, one of which is as a food buffer on the island of Java. Many harvests are distributed directly outside the region, after which they enter the market through distributors and agents, so this is a point of weakness and deficiency for policy makers in regulating and distributing rice commodities. This research was conducted with the aim of knowing the rice distribution model using the Powersim application. The method used to create a food policy model/design for Banten province is the Dynamic System. The results of this research are that the output obtained from the rice food distribution model simulation is that each rice stock in the Gapoktan warehouse sends according to the amount requested in each district/city, with a total capacity that can be obtained at the food distribution center of 109,682 tonnes/yr, or 2,742 tons/harvest. Then, after carrying out a simulation model using Powersim software, it can be concluded that the rice food commodity in Banten Province can still meet demand. With the Banten Province Food Distribution Center, it can control the availability of rice.

This research aims to analyze the costs, income, profits, and level of sensitivity of citronella farming in the Kalumpang Saiyo farming group in Solok City. The method used in this research is a case study. The sampling method is purposive sampling, where farmer groups are selected based on specific criteria. The data analysis used is quantitative analysis to analyze the costs incurred for activities starting from investment costs, production operations, and financial analysis used to determine whether or not farming is feasible using investment feasibility criteria, namely Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Benefit Cost Ratio (B/C Ratio). Sensitivity analysis is used to determine the level of business sensitivity to changes in parameters used in increasing production costs (10%, 15%, and 23.36%), decreasing benefits (10%, 15%, and 18.36%), as well as increasing production costs and reduced benefits (10% and 10.46%). The research showed that the citronella farming business that was run survived up to an increase in production costs of 23.36%. The farming business also survived up to a decrease in benefits of 18.96%. It survived up to conditions of an increase in production costs of 10.46% and a reduction of benefits of 10.46%, coinciding.

Brebeg Village has great potential for producing Siamese oranges. Large areas of land have the productivity to produce more oranges, oranges can be harvested on average 18 tons per year. The large potential of orange fruit can improve the economy of orange farmers, the government Department of Agriculture provides assistance in the form of training on the care and rejuvenation of orange trees as well as providing training on processing orange fruit products in collaboration with UNAIC. The problems faced by Gapoktan are a lack of knowledge regarding planting oranges, an irregular irrigation system. The problems faced by KWT are lack of knowledge regarding orange-based products, product management and marketing. The method used is coordinating with all partners, providing knowledge and skills in creating orange cultivation facilities and orange-based food processing, implementing and evaluating activities. The results of Kosabangsa's research are able to provide benefits for community empowerment in this case, namely improving the economy through empowering Siamese orange farmer groups to become functional food-based processed products in Brebeg Village, Jeruklegi District, Cilacap Regency.

Agriculture is an activity of managing biological natural resources with the help of technology, capital, labor and management to produce agricultural commodities which include food crops, horticulture, plantations and or livestock in an agro-ecosystem. Most of the Indonesian people's livelihoods are as farmers, so the agricultural sector is very important to develop in this country. Poktan Beno Raharjo in Glonggong Village, Madiun Regency has a problem, namely the absence of an information system that is useful for managing agricultural production data, managing farmer data, managing village granary data, recording planting of food crops and horticultural crops, managing subsidized fertilizer assistance. The mobile-based Poktan information system was created using the dart programming language with the flutter framework using the waterfall method and testing using the black box testing method.

Penyelenggaraan penyuluhan pertanian belum cukup optimal, sehingga belum mampu mewujutkan sumber daya manusia pertanian yang profesional, kreatif, inovatif, dan berwawasan global. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis faktor-faktor penghambat kelompok tani di Kabupaten Manokwari Papua Barat.

Data yang telah dikumpulkan dianalisis secara deskritif dan ditampilkan secara tabel (tabulasi), dengan perhitungan frekuensi dan rataan skor. Hasil penelitian menerangkan bahwa Kemampuan kelompok dalam pemanfaatan sumber daya dan pelestarian lingkungan belum mencapai hasil yang maksimal, hal ini menyebabkan pengetahuan petani rendah. Keaktifan penyuluh dalam memberikan bimbingan kepada petani masih terlihat sangat kurang, disebabkan terbatasnya jumlah tenaga penyuluh dan luasnya wilayah kerja serta jumlah kelompoktani banyak, waktunya terbatas. Kemampuan kelompok dalam bekerjasama dengan mitra usaha yang mendukung kegiatan usaha tani baik dibidang sarana produksi, pengolahan, pemasaran dan permodalan.    

Technological developments encourage changes in the way decisions are made. In terms of stopping the application of urea fertilizer, farmers still rely on BWD observations. In this study, using the RnD method by directly observing the research location in the farmer group Gapoktan, in the village of Tosari, Kendan district and analyzing the problem then making a prototype which will be tested by experts. In this study, a tool was made using NodeMCU with TCS3200 sensor to detect color, which was then sent via the internet to the database using IoT technology. In this study, using several trials with different parameters of urea fertilizer use and the results of the TCS3200 sensor can detect colors according to what is on the BWD and send data to the database via the internet. In this system, farmers can recommend the use of suitable urea fertilizers outside a certain area so as to minimize errors in the observation on BWD, this will make the use of urea fertilizer to be the right dose.  

Recent technological developments determine humans to be creative in creating tools that implement technology in it with the aim of facilitating human tasks in daily activities. Inappropriate use of fertilizers can cause losses, both losses on fertilizer, on plants, as well as on the soil and the environment around fertilization. Losses on plants such as unhealthy plant growth and susceptible to disease pests, plant yields are not as expected or low. From the background above, the writer found an idea to create a system or tool that can help farmers in determining the dose of Nitrogen fertilizer in their rice plants, through the storage of the dosage data of each land. The user did five scans, from each scan producing RGB values, each RGB value from five samples was then matched with the BWD dose color indicator. The sample dose results are then sent by the NodeMcu microcontroller to the webserver database. Based on the assessment of the test conducted by 10 Users by Gapoktan Farmers Group of Tosari Kendal Village, the total value of 372 that has been averaged to be 37.2 is between 31 - 40 which is classified in the category of "Very Valid or Very Effective".
