Access to information on innovative agricultural practices is essential for farmers to implement procedures that support farming. Although active participation can take various forms, physical involvement is not the sole determinant of successful participation. Peatland honey pineapple cultivation has been a long-standing practice, and its production has experienced fluctuations over the years. The decline in honey pineapple production from 2017 onwards poses a challenge for both farmers and the district government, given the crop's potential for development in Galang Village, Mempawah Regency. This research study utilized a sample of 73 individuals and collected data through interviews, observations, and available references. Both quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted to examine the level of farmers' participation in the development of honey pineapple commodities across three stages: participation, implementation, and evaluation. The study revealed that farmers' participation in the development of honey pineapple commodities at the participation stage fell into the independent category (1.43 >1.96), while at the implementation and evaluation stages, it entered the independent category, with values of 5.29 (>1.96) and 2.96 (>1.96), respectively. Age, education level, and length of farming experience were identified as factors that influenced farmers' participation in the development of honey pineapple commodities.","PeriodicalId":319612,"journal":{"name":"Agriecobis : Journal of Agricultural Socioeconomics and Business","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132755733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Product quality and price are two significant factors that influence consumer purchasing decisions. Understanding the influence of these factors is crucial for businesses seeking to improve their sales and meet the expectations of their customers. This study aims to investigate the impact of product quality and price on consumer purchasing decisions for honey at PT Kembang Joyo Sriwijaya Malang. The study employed a quantitative research design, using accidental sampling to select consumers who had purchased honey from the store more than once. Data was collected from 75 respondents, and structural equation modeling (SEM-PLS) was used to analyze the data. The analysis involved examining the relationship between product quality and price with consumer purchasing decisions. The findings of the study showed that product quality and price had a significant positive effect on consumer purchasing decisions. Product quality had a positive relationship with purchasing decisions, influencing 20.6% of the variance (path coefficient=0.206, t-statistic=2.410, p-value=0.016). Price had a stronger positive relationship, influencing 65.4% of the variance (path coefficient=0.654, t-statistic=10.534, p-value=0.000). These results suggest that both product quality and price are essential factors to consider when seeking to improve sales and meet customer expectations in the honey market at PT Kembang Joyo Sriwijaya Malang.","PeriodicalId":319612,"journal":{"name":"Agriecobis : Journal of Agricultural Socioeconomics and Business","volume":"142 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128584885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the COVID-19 pandemic has presented a unique challenge due to the invisible nature of the virus, its social transmission, and the resultant threats to human safety. Small businesses have undergone several changes, including altered consumer behavior, production patterns, and product marketing, primarily due to their reliance on crowds and direct interactions between sellers and buyers. Consequently, many small businesses have either shut down or faced difficulties in maintaining their sustainability. To gain insights into the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic for small business actors, we conducted a qualitative phenomenological study in Lebak Regency, Banten Province. Our findings suggest that the informants viewed the pandemic as a crisis that tested their adaptive capacity. This capacity encompassed not only the ability to adjust to changing economic conditions but also a sense of gratitude for the outcomes of their business activities. The quality of these attributes together determined the sustainability of their business.","PeriodicalId":319612,"journal":{"name":"Agriecobis : Journal of Agricultural Socioeconomics and Business","volume":"620 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134482859","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Formal organizations recognize this possibility and are strategically incorporating informal organizations into their selling operations. The broad objective of this study was to examine the effect of street trade on small and medium enterprises performance with a specific focus on the operators in Ilorin metropolis. Therefore, the study’s specific objectives were to: determine the relationship between street entrepreneurship transformative measures and market share of SMEs and evaluate the effect of transformative measures on the transformation of street entrepreneurship into SMEs. Since the study population was large and unknown, Cochran sample size formula was used to determining the sample size of 385. A questionnaire was designed using structured questions to obtain primary data from the respondents in Ilorin metropolis, Kwara State. A total of three hundred and eighty-five (385) copies of the questionnaire were administered, out of which three hundred and sixty-eight (368) copies were properly filled and returned. The formulated hypotheses were tested using multiple regression analysis and correlation with the aid of SPSS version 21. The findings of the study revealed that; the strong positive relationship between street entrepreneurship transformative measures with socio-cultural factor as the highest correlation coefficient of .946, multiple regression analysis established that transformative measures have an effect on the transformation of street entrepreneurship with an R2 value of .987. Hence, the study concluded that all transformative measures of street entrepreneurship have a significant effect on market share and that transformative measures have a significant positive effect on the transformation of street entrepreneurship into SMEs. It was recommended that street entrepreneurs should not underestimate the potential of relationship marketing, which may increase a company’s financial performance. Moreover, street entrepreneurial ventures should concentrate on changing their enterprises into SMEs by gaining a deeper understanding, learning skills, and developing a working knowledge of all aspects that may impact their operations and thwart their transformative aims.","PeriodicalId":319612,"journal":{"name":"Agriecobis : Journal of Agricultural Socioeconomics and Business","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125347639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
