Economic Valuation on Water Management in Urban Area

Agustyarum Pradiska Budi , Mugi Rahardjo, Evi Gravitiani

Abstract

Densely populated areas need special attention in water management considering the rate of land conversion the years. Economic valuation can help the city government in providing solutions to minimize land conversion to maintain the sustainability of water supply or future drought threats. Urban water management is needed to regulate the sustainability of water supply. The lack of water catchment areas in urban areas is a threat to the control of water supply. Applications of infiltration wells, retention basin (embung), and greening are alternatives for urban water supply control. This study uses benefit-cost analysis to measure and assess costs and benefits of making alternatives given from the economic side. The results of this study are Net B/C, NPV, IRR, and PBP are feasible on economic analysis.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the problems and find the economic value of mangrove forest restoration program utilization of village Pasarbanggi Rembang. The research of using the DPSIR analysis and cost-benefit analysis methods which include Net Present Value (NPV), Interest Rate of Return (IRR), Net B/C Ratio, and Payback Period. DPSIR analysis results known that human activity is divided into two types, namely constructive and destructive. constructive activity derives from the awareness of local people who have had a positive outlook towards the sustainability of mangrove resources and desire to contribute to conservation.

Farmers’ willingness to pay for the environmental restoration of the critical land at North Kalimantan

S R Pratiwi, E Purnomo, S Usman and E Gravitiani

Abstract.

The agricultural sector is affected by climate change along with intensive farming. This thing causes land degradation and land productivity decline. This study aims to measure the level of willingness to pay (WTP) of farmer community for environmental improvements due to land degradation and to analyze the factors influencing the WTP. The research was conducted at Sempayang Village, Malinau District, North Kalimantan in March 2018. This location was chosen because it has the most critical land with an area 541.08ha, 77% of the total area of degraded land at North Kalimantan. By considering the limitation of time, cost and human resources, then in conducting the primary data collection it was only on 51 respondents using random sampling method. Contingent valuation method (CVM) used to determine the farmers’ willingness to pay (WTP), while ordinary least square analysis used to analyze the factors affecting the WTP. To suppress the damaging effects of the critical land, farmers of the farmer community willing to pay IDR.21,296 per one production period, where the highest WTP was IDR.50,000. The factors affecting the WTP are the age, education, length of stay, status of land ownership and plan to move. Meanwhile the income, marital status, number of family members, main profession and soil conservation had the negative effects on WTP.

E Gravitiani, S N Fitriana, and Suryanto

Abstract

Climate change has an adverse effect on the coastal area. When sea level is rising, it will leads to more frequent sea tides, flood, and abrasion. This condition will make the coastal communities, especially fishermen and traders, become vulnerable. This research aims to examine the social-economics vulnerability of coastal communities, especially fishermen and traders in Northern and Southern Java coastal area, which related to climate change. The data is collected from 216 respondents from the coastal area. The data is analysed using Livelihood Vulnerability Index (LVI) and, Livelihood Vulnerability Index – Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change (LVI-IPCC). LVI analysis shows that the condition of coastal communities can be considered as vulnerable. However, based on LVI-IPCC analysis, the coastal communities are not vulnerable.

Climate change impact to socio-economy vulnerability in northern Java coastal area

E Gravitiani, S N Fitriana, R Bernadeta1 and S R Pratiwi

Abstract

This study aims to identify the north Java coastal areas that are affected by abrasion, to presents the result in a map, and to calculate the level of socio-economic vulnerability of people in the north Java coastal areas. Abrasion in the coastal area is an impact of the uprising will affect sea level. This condition will threaten the coastal communities’ life. The research methods were geographical information system (GIS), Livelihood Vulnerability Index (LVI) and Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA). GIS needed to determine the characteristics of areas with bad climate condition. GIS basically is a special type of information system that considers the representation and manipulation of geographical realty. LVI consists of seven main components to calculate the vulnerability level. CBA used to formulate policy scenario. People in the north Java coastal areas have a high level of socio-economy vulnerability. Mitigation on abrasion
needs community awareness, both of people who live there and people who sale along the beach. The government also has a responsibility to mitigate the impact of abrasion in coastal areas.

Environmental Performance and Agricultural Productivity: Assessing the Convergence and Divergence of Demand-Driven Agricultural Extension

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and evaluate the implementation of agricultural extension on bridging the critical point between environmental performance and agricultural productivity based on community needs and the role of agricultural extension in increasing productivity, reducing the number of poor and environmental degradation. This research uses sequential mixed method with stakeholder analysis and descriptive statistics. This research was conducted on 31 samples of farmer groups in Kejajar Subdistrict, in Dieng plateau area, Central Java Province. The results showed that the level of effectiveness of farmer group participation was classified as medium. The role of stakeholders and academics is still low, but the role of agricultural extension officers is relatively high because they are more responsive to the farmers’ needs. The implementation of agricultural extension in Dieng area has not fully utilized demand driven basis due to institutional and regulatory factors that have not fully supported the role of agricultural extension officers in the field. In addition, it is also found that the competence of agricultural extension officers is still low so that they have not been able to carry out demand-driven extension function.

Social Engineering Strategy of Entrepreneuship Behavior of Indonesian Migrant Workers During the Placement Period

Abstract

Purpose: The main objective of this research is to formulate a social engineering strategy of entrepreneurship behavior of Indonesian workers.
Design/Methodology/Approach: The study used a sequential mixed method with regression by analyzing (1) factors that influence their entrepreneurship behavior, (2) factors that influence their remittance delivery, and (3) social networking patterns that influence their characteristics and motivation to be independent.
Findings: The results showed that training, marital status, and work experience in the home country were factors influencing entrepreneurship motivation, while training, remittance recipients, origin and determinants of remittance utilization affected the amount of remittances sent. In addition, social networking shows that motivation to be independent is influenced by training in both hard and soft skills and assistance in both institutional and capital.
Practical Implications: This research is expected to be able to provide input to the government, especially the central government as the regulator to formulate regulations in the form of legislation, especially for increasing the human capital of Indonesian migrant workers from the time of pre-placement, placement and through to post-placement.
Originality/Value: The social engineering model proposed that is integrated with the structured curriculum and materials followed by ongoing mentoring with a learning group system or Community Learning will encourage migrant workers.
