An examination of the variables affecting rice output and farmers' income levels serves as the driving force behind this study. One of the settlements where people live and work is this one. Using multiple linear regression methods and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), the study aims to ascertain and assess the effects of fertilizer use, capital, productivity, land, distribution, price, demand, and consumption on farmers' income levels. One hundred farmers served as the sample size. Questionnaires were sent in order to gather data, and SPSS version 24.0 was used for data processing. According to the findings of experiments conducted using hypothesis testing, farmer income is significantly impacted by the factors of production, consumption, land, and prices. Next, the variables Farmer income is not significantly impacted by fertilizer use, demand, distribution, or capital. Four factors are suitable to influence income, according to the research's findings. The first component, productivity, has a value of 0.912; the second, consumption, has a value of 0.764; the third, land, has a value of 0.848; and the fourth, price, has a value of 0.864. The Rotated component matrix value indicates that there are eight factors. The government must work to inspire and excite the people to boost the wealth of farmers in Sei Rotan village, and it is hoped that farmers would keep increasing the productivity of their rice output.

As people's consumption levels increase, the plastic waste produced will also increase. It's normal if in the future it becomes a serious environmental problem. We need a technology that is able to replace plastic waste into products that have a long life so that they do not return to waste in a short time. Making paving block products from plastic waste is another way of utilizing plastic waste over a long period of time, in order to increase utilization efficiency and reduce the environmental burden on plastic waste and form innovative products into building materials. The most important problem with plastic is plastic waste which cannot be decomposed naturally. Cleaning up plastic waste takes a very long time, and also the use of plastic can hardly be regulated. Based on the results of surveys, interviews and observations conducted on the community around Kuala Village, the community's awareness of waste processing is very minimal and there are lots of piles of plastic waste which can have a negative impact on health and disrupt the preservation of environmental functions, including residential environments, forests, rice fields, and rivers. To reduce the volume of plastic waste that is not managed properly, efforts are being made to utilize plastic waste to make paving blocks in Kuala Lemang Village. to explore the potential for using plastic waste as an alternative material in making environmentally friendly and sustainable paving blocks. Plastic waste collected from the surrounding environment is processed into mixed materials in making paving blocks. This process involves chopping, mixing with conventional materials such as sand, and testing the strength of the final product. Public acceptance of plastic-based paving blocks has proven positive, especially after trials in the local environment. This research contributes to better plastic waste management and offers new economic opportunities in the construction sector, while supporting sustainable development.

Rice imports have been demonstrated to influence the Farmer's Exchange Rate (NTP) significantly. A reduction in rice imports by 356,286.2 tons in 2020 corresponded with a decline in NTP to 101.65. In contrast, per capita, weekly rice consumption did not exhibit a statistically significant impact on NTP, as evidenced by the lowest consumption in 2019 (1.504 kg), while the NTP remained at 104.46. On the other hand, rice productivity was found to have a notable influence on NTP, with trends in productivity closely mirroring those of the NTP. The harvest area, however, did not present a significant correlation with NTP, as demonstrated in 2019 when an increase in harvest area did not prevent the NTP from remaining at a lower level of 104.46. Lastly, rice production had a significant effect on NTP, with increases in production during 2021 and 2022 leading to subsequent increases in the NTP.                  

Rice prices in Indonesia have experienced significant fluctuations from 2019 to 2023, influenced by factors such as production, consumption, imports, international prices, and crop damage. The highest rice production was recorded in 2022 at 31,540,522 tons, while the lowest production occurred in 2023 at 31,101,285 tons. The highest rice consumption was in 2023 at 30,616,081 tons, and the lowest was in 2019 at 28,930,000 tons. The highest rice imports were in 2023 at 2,715,854 tons, and the lowest was in 2019 at 6,197 tons. Global rice prices also fluctuated, ranging from Rp. 6,674/kg in 2019 to Rp. 8,667/kg in 2023. Crop damage was lowest in 2022 at 470,131 hectares and highest in 2019 at 819,444 hectares. It's important to note that the fluctuations in rice prices are intensely influenced by several factors that highlight the need for effective price stabilization policies to guarantee the accessibility and affordability of rice for the public.

Organic fertilizer is very important in efforts to improve soil fertility naturally and safely, in the broadest sense of being free from chemicals that are harmful to human health, therefore this organic fertilizer is very safe for consumption. This research was carried out in a housing complex on Jl. Tombak, Medan Tembung District, Medan City, North Sumatra. The research method used in this research is the experimental and observation method. The aim of this research is to determine the content of organic fertilizer made from mixed waste of onion skins and garlic skins with used rice water washing. And the results of the research that has been carried out show that the organic fertilizer that the researchers made failed due to several factors, such as perhaps there being onion skins that had rotted and should not be used and also the fermentation process time was too long, so it did not meet the required standards. Apart from that, when filtering to remove onion skin waste, the liquid fertilizer the researchers made smelled pungent and rotten.

Indonesia is one of the thrid largest rice producers after India and China, but Indonesia still imports to other countries because Indonesia's population countinues to increase. This study aims to determine the influience of harvested land area, pupulation, rice production, rice consumption, local rice prices, national rice reserves and cassava prices on rice imports in Indonesia. Hypotesis testing with multiple linear regression with help of eviews 12. The data used is a time series between 1980-2022 for 43 years. Research data is sourced from the Food Agriculture Organization (FAO), the Ministry of Trade, BPS, scientific journals and various other websites. The results showed that the area of harvested land, population, rice production,  rice comsumtion, local rice prices, national rice reserves and cassava prices  simultaneously have a significant influence on rice imports. Partially, the varibeles of harvested land area, national rice reserves, population, local rice prices, and cassava prices have a significant effect on rice imports in Indonesia. Variable rice production and comsumtion have an insignificant influence on rice imports in Indonesia. The implication of this study is that with the renewal of years and variables of rice subtitution goods, it is hoped that the goverment can apply effectively and effeciently, this is because it will have an impact on reducing imports, so that Indonesia does not continue to depend on other countries

This community service aims to socialize the shift in food patterns akinat gastro-colonialism in Baidub Village, Merauke. Gastro-colonialism has led to significant changes in people's food patterns from consumption of local foods such as sago, yam, and maize, to rice and processed foods. This has an impact on people's health and culture. This community service is carried out by community service methods, namely socialization to 300 residents of Baidub Village. Socialization materials include shifts in food patterns, the concept of gastro-colonialism, and the nutritional content of sago and processed foods. The results of community service show that the people of Baidub Village enthusiastically participated in socialization and began to understand the negative impact of gastro-colonialism. They are also motivated to return to eating local food, especially sago.

The Bolotomo cattle breeder group in Wingkosigromulyo Village, Nkombol District, Purworejo Regency, has been established since 2010 with the help of subsidies from the local Livestock Service. Initially, they focused on producing organic fertilizer, but switched to the feeder cattle and meat business because the selling price of fertilizer was low. Livestock management is still traditional, and concentrate feed is rarely used because it is expensive and difficult to obtain. In the dry season, food availability is limited, and rice straw and field grass are the main food sources. The service activity by Tidar University students aims to help farmer groups overcome the feed crisis with technology for making pellets from local materials. Demonstration of making pellets using a mixture of calliandra leaf flour, rice bran, pineapple peel, molasses and tapioca flour. Pellets have the advantage of improving feed quality, consumption efficiency and shelf life. Farmers also shared their experiences and expressed the need for processing livestock waste, such as biogas plants, to reduce pollution and increase income. Integration between the agriculture, fisheries and livestock sectors is the focus for sustainable development.

This research is about the analysis of ethical consumption of food and drinks (Study of students from the Islamic Economics and Business Faculty, Sharia Economics Study Program, UIN Sulthan Thaha Saifuddin Jambi). This research aims to find out more about the ethical patterns of student food and drink consumption and Islamic economic views regarding student food and drink consumption. The method used by researchers is a qualitative method. The object of this research is students majoring in sharia economics, FEBI Class of 2019-2020. The data sources used are primary and secondary data using data collection techniques in the form of observation, interviews and documentation. The results of this research show that students' consumption ethics in fulfilling food or primary blindness (dhuriyat) are seen from the type of food they consume, the way they consume it and the quantity of food they consume is not fully in accordance with consumption ethics. In terms of ethics, most students do not pay attention to ethics and manners in consuming and from the five principles of Islamic consumption there is a gap between theory and practice. Based on the principle of simplicity, students consume excessively which can lead to wastage and waste. Meanwhile, students' moral principles do not follow the rules of etiquette and ethics set out by the Prophet Muhammad SAW. Most students do not apply this principle. Judging from the way they eat, they don't pay attention to consumption ethics based on what the prophet taught, and their habit of often throwing away rice and then leaving the environment dirty because they don't clean the place immediately after they consume food.
