Land degradation due to intensive agricultural practices is a serious issue threatening food security and ecosystem balance. Monoculture farming systems often lead to soil fertility decline, increased erosion, and reduced soil biodiversity. As an alternative, agroforestry has been developed to enhance agricultural productivity without compromising soil health. Agroforestry integrates agricultural crops with trees or other woody plants in a mutually beneficial system. Several studies have shown that agroforestry improves soil organic matter content, retains soil moisture, and reduces erosion and nutrient loss. This study employs a literature review method to analyze the effectiveness of agroforestry in improving soil health and agricultural productivity. Agroforestry has been found to enhance agricultural productivity through crop diversification, efficient land use, and climate change mitigation. Diversification not only strengthens food security but also increases farmers’ income by minimizing crop failure risks and enhancing nutritional value. Additionally, agroforestry optimizes land use by improving yield per unit area and reducing environmental degradation through natural resource conservation. Agroforestry also plays a crucial role in mitigating climate change by increasing ecosystem resilience, sequestering carbon, and reducing extreme weather impacts. However, the adoption of agroforestry faces challenges, including a lack of farmers’ knowledge, limited policy support, and varying environmental conditions. Addressing these barriers through improved education, supportive policies, and sustainable resource management can accelerate agroforestry adoption. With broader implementation and strong policy support, agroforestry can drive agricultural sustainability and enhance community well-being.

This study aims to analyze the level of attack by Macaca hecki on cultivated plants in Makarti Jaya Village, Pohuwato, Gorontalo. Agriculture is the main source of income for the local community, but the presence of Macaca hecki can threaten agricultural yields. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative, with data collected through direct observation and interviews with farmers experiencing the attacks. The results indicate that corn (Zea mays) is the most consumed plant by Macaca hecki, followed by cocoa (Theobroma cacao) and several other types of fruit such as bananas and papayas. The high consumption rates of these cultivated plants negatively impact agricultural results, causing significant economic losses for farmers. Therefore, it is important to understand the attack patterns and the factors influencing the behavior of Macaca hecki. This research recommends the need for more effective protection strategies, such as the placement of physical barriers and diversification of plant types. Thus, it is hoped that this study can contribute to the management of conflicts between wildlife and agriculture, as well as enhance the economic sustainability of farming communities.

Inovasi dalam pendidikan sering dipengaruhi oleh bias kognitif yang muncul dalam proses pengambilan keputusan. Bias ini mencerminkan kecenderungan berpikir irasional yang dapat menyebabkan pemilihan kebijakan yang tidak optimal serta menghambat adopsi perubahan yang lebih efektif. Artikel ini mengkaji empat jenis bias kognitif utama yaitu confirmation bias, status quo bias, overconfidence bias, dan anchoring bias yang sering terjadi dalam konteks inovasi pendidikan. Dengan menggunakan metode studi literatur, artikel ini menganalisis bagaimana bias-bias tersebut berdampak pada keputusan inovatif dan kontribusinya terhadap kegagalan atau keterlambatan implementasi inovasi yang seharusnya relevan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa bias ini dapat menyebabkan pengambilan keputusan yang tertutup terhadap masukan baru, mempertahankan pendekatan lama, dan mengabaikan data empiris. Untuk mengatasinya, peneliti menawarkan pendekatan seperti pelatihan kesadaran bias bagi pengambil keputusan, penggunaan evaluasi berbasis bukti, serta pelibatan perspektif yang beragam dalam proses keputusan. Dengan demikian, diperlukan upaya sistematis untuk mengurangi bias kognitif agar inovasi pendidikan berjalan lebih efektif, rasional, dan berkelanjutan.

This community service program aims to develop nutraceutical-based health products from temu mangga (Curcuma mangga Val.van Zip) and probiotics, called "TEMAPRO". Research and socialization were conducted in Pulau Semambu Village, South Sumatra, targeting village mothers who have limited knowledge about the benefits of herbs and probiotics. Temu mangga, which is traditionally consumed as a salad and herbal medicine, contains various active compounds that have the potential as antioxidants and anti-cancer. Combined with the probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus, this product is expected to support digestive health and increase body immunity. Implementation methods include education, training in making temu mangga extract, mixing with probiotics, and product packaging techniques. The results of the activities showed an increase in community understanding and skills in processing local materials into health products with economic value. It is hoped that "TEMAPRO" will not only improve the quality of public health, but also open up business opportunities in the village through local nutraceutical products.
