Utilizing yard is an alternative to increasing food security. The government is rolling out a program for using yard through the Pekarangan Pangan Lestari Program (P2L) to respond to the threat of a food crisis due to global climate change, increasing population, and land conversion. Most P2L Program recipients in Yogyakarta City do not work as farmers. Therefore, there is a need to study P2L Program evaluation candidates in Yogyakarta City. The aim of this research is to (1) evaluation a P2L Program in the City of Yogyakarta, which includes ecological, economic and social dimensions, and (2) determine sensitive attributes in the sustainability of the P2L Program. This research is exploratory, and samples were taken using the proportional random sampling method. The types of data used include primary and secondary data. This research uses multidimensional scale analysis (MDS) to assess the status and stability index of the P2L Program and to identify components that influence its stability index for each aspect by using leverage analysis. Multidimensional Scaling using Rapfish is a relevant approach that involves policies or programs. The research results show that the Yogyakarta City P2L Program has a desired index for the social dimension of 62.63%, which is quite sustainable. In the less sustainable category, the ecological and economic dimensions are 48.69% and 33.38%, respectively. For the sustainability of the P2L Program, the social dimension has the greatest impact. Sensitive attributes in the development of P2L in Yogyakarta City include the utilization of fertilizer from household waste, the beauty of yards, establishing cooperation with partners for product marketing, familiarity between members, establishing communication, absorbing labour, and saving expenses.

The consumption of animal-sourced protein food in Indonesia is projected to continue increasing. However, current issues include low average consumption levels, a significant share of expenditure, and relatively high prices of some animal-sourced protein foods. This study analyzed the demand function for animal protein food consumption to identify the factors influencing household consumption and examined own-price elasticity, cross-price elasticity, and income elasticity. The analysis used SUSENAS consumption data, including household members, income, and food expenditure, and employed the QUAIDS model. The results showed that all variables were significant at the 1 percent level, implying that animal protein food commodities were influenced by household income, own-price, prices of other commodities, and socio-demographic factors (household size, age of household head, education level of household head, and region) in East Java and East Nusa Tenggara. The animal food commodity most sensitive to income changes in East Java was milk (1.409%), followed by meat (1.252%), and fish (1.214%) as luxury goods, and eggs (0.433%) as normal goods. The Marshallian (uncompensated) and Hicksian (compensated) own-price elasticities for all commodities in East Java and NTT were negative, indicating that the demand for animal protein food adhered to the law of demand. The Hicksian (compensated) cross-price elasticity values for other commodities in East Java and NTT were positive, suggesting that these commodities are substitutes for one another.

The Forest Management Program with the Community (PHBM) is a program that provides an opportunity for communities living around forests to participate in managing forests by planting seasonal crops with the concept of agroforestry. However, there are any threats to agricultural sustainability in the form of critical land, pest attacks, institutional functions that are not running well, and non-optimal usage of technology.

The data collected by distribute the questionnaires to respondents. Respondents in consist of 67 people in total who divided into 60 farmers, and seven stakeholders. Data analysis used the MDS (Multidimensional Scaling) method and leverage analysis to see the attributes that affect sustainability. The results of the study have a sustainability index value of 53.778%, it is categorized as Sufficiently Sustainable in terms of institutional dimensions about (67.119%), ecology dimensions (61.119%), and economic dimensions (58.332%). Meanwhile, the social dimension (44.597%) and the technology dimension (37.727%) are less sustainable. The leverage analysis shows 25 sensitive attributes that affect the sustainability of farming on Perhutani's land in each dimension.

The sand mining activities leave a wide area ex-sand mining land. In Bambang Village, farmers who live in that area try to get their land back to produce agricultural activities that were used previously for sand mining. However, there are several obstacles to the sustainability of farming in this area, especially the matter of critical land issues, pest and disease attacks, unpredictability of price, and technology used still not optimized suboptimal use of technology. To analyze the sustainability index and the attributes that influence continuity of corn farming on post-mine sand land, a quantitative study was conducted used a five-dimension sustainability approach. This approach included the consist of ecological, economic, social, institutional, and technological dimensions. Data collected by distributing questionnaires to the respondents which are divided into 72 of farmers and five key informants, so that, total of respondents are 77 people. Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) and leverage analysis were used to determine the attributes that influence sustainability. The results of the research show corn farming continuity on post-sand mining land produce a sustainability index for about 54.86%. It is considered quite able to maintain in terms of the economic dimension (62.12%), social dimension (60.82%), and institutional dimension (60.27%). Though, the ecological dimension (46.88%) and technological dimension (44.23%) were classified as weak in terms of sustainability. Additionally, leverage analysis shows about 25 sensitive attributes which is influenced the sustainability of corn farming on post-sand mining land.

The intrinsic factors that have a real influence on the level of participation are income and land area, while the extrinsic factors are socialization, assistance, openness of government, program suitability and benefits. Increasing community participation can be done by improving the factors that have a real influence.

Tuna commodity turns out to be one of fishery commodities contributing to an export increase by value above the average of 18.57%. This is an opportunity for Indonesia to improve the country's economy by utilizing existing fishery resources. Thus, government policies are needed in order to support the export performance of fishery products. This research was conducted to determine the impact of government policies toward tuna fish commodities in Malang. The method used was the Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM) that aimed at knowing the impact of government policies on tuna commodities. In this study, the respondents were 30 tuna fishermen at TPI Pondokdadap. The results of analysis showed that there were subsidies, taxes, and trade restrictions in input factor. Nonetheless, in output factor, fishermen did not receive subsidies. The existence of a policy on input is very helpful for fishermen so as to reduce production costs, while in the output policy the community receives more benefits at low output prices. However, it can be seen from the DRC and PCR values that they are less than one. This means that the tuna fish commodity in Malang still has comparative and competitive advantages in competitiveness.

The purpose of this study was to investigate technical, allocative, cost and scale efficiency of palm oil companies in Indonesia. The data used cross sectional data on Indonesian Manufacturing Industries that were collected in the annual surveys by Indonesia’s Central of Statistics/BPS for 2015 which is registered under KBLI code 10431. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a nonparametric method in operations research and economics for the estimation of production frontiers. It is used to empirically measure productive efficiency of decision making units (DMUs). The input of the palm oil production system are capital, labor, materials, land and energy. While output include industrial product in terms of CPO/PKO and biogas. The finding shows that Riau Island, North Sulawesi and Papua have high score of efficiency in terms of TE, AE, CE and SE, while West Java and Banten province at low level in terms of cost and allocative efficiency. Nevertheless, on nationwide the score of allocative and cost efficiency still low. Hence, all the input efficiencies still need to be improved, and also reduce cost of production. Beside that, the companies should make an improvement by enhancing management capabilities and improving allocation efficiency.
