People of Pasuruan Regency seize market opportunities for fishery commodities by conducting fish pemindangan (processing) businesses. The study aims to analyze factors that affect income of the fish pindang business in Mlaten and Kedawang Village, Pasuruan Regency. The research respondents were all fish processing business actors, totaling 24 business actors in Mlaten Village and 26 business actors in Kedawang Village. Data collected through interviews with respondents, and analyzed with multiple linear regression models. The results showed that income of the business in Mlaten Village was simultaneously influenced by price of raw materials, business experience, number of workers, education, processing facilities, firewood, and amount of salt. Partially, the income was significantly influenced by business experience, number of workers, and processing facilities. In Kedawang Village, simultaneously, all of these variables also have a significant effect on the income. But partially, business experience, processing facilities, and the amount of salt have a significant effect on the income. Most dominant factor is processing facilities.

Vannamei shrimp farming on a mini-scale plastic pond ("busmetik") in Pasuruan Regency has been implemented since 2015. This study aims to analyze financial feasibility and potential for busmetik development in this region. The research was conducted in three sub-districts with a population of 120 farmers. Sample was determined by simple random sampling and 37 farmers were selected. Data collected through interviews, and analyzed by financial feasibility and SWOT. The results showed that busmetik vannamei shrimp farming in Pasuruan Regency was feasible to be developed based on investment criteria: R/C and B/C greater than one, short payback period, BEP price and production lower than real price and production, positive NPV, and IRR is higher than bank interest rate. Sensitivity analysis on the decline in production and prices by 20% resulted in the conclusion that this business is just feasible. Analysis of internal factors (IFE) and external factors (EFE) resulted in six strategies for developing vannamei shrimp farming business with busmetik technology. Those strategies were to classify product sizes based on quality; increase production volume with optimal land use; integrated production management; product differentiation; training program planning; and work with third parties for assistance. Government and investors can promote the business by supporting financing, providing integrated production management training in order to increase production and income of farmers.

Livestock businesses have various risks of death that can occur due to accidents, natural disasters, and disease outbreaks. To anticipate the risks that occur, the government seeks to help farmers through agricultural insurance, including the cattle and buffalo business insurance program (AUTSK= Asuransi Usaha ternak Sapi/Kerbau). This study aims to analyze the implementation of the AUTSK program and the factors that affect the income of dairy farmers. The research was conducted in Ngajum District, Malang Regency with the consideration that this area is a center for dairy cows. Data were collected from 40 dairy farmers obtained by simple random sampling. Furthermore, the data was edited and compiled, and then analyzed using the multiple linear analysis method (which was transformed from Cobb Douglas function). The results showed that implementation of the AUTSK program in Malang Regency tended to be less attractive to farmers because the fulfillment of claims was not timely (the period of disbursement of funds was too long). Farmer education, livestock ownership and the cost of concentrate feed have a significant effect on the income of dairy farmers. Government needs to re-evaluate implementation of livestock insurance so that farmers can continue their business. Limitation of this study is difficulty of separating cost of production facilities for each cow, so that the expenditure for lactating cows is also difficult to calculate correctly.

Efficient marketing will prosper the actors in each marketing agency, producers and consumers. Efficiency will be created if marketing costs can be minimized so that the percentage of producer prices to consumers is not too large, and there is no gap in the profit ratio to marketing costs between marketing agencies. The study aims to analyze marketing efficiency of tangerines and siamese in Gadingkulon Village. Data were collected from 87 citrus farmers who were selected by simple random sampling. Traders were determined by snowball sampling, consist of 17 collectors, 5 wholesalers, and 7 retailers were selected. Data were edited in the field, tabulated, compiled, then presented in tabular form, analyzed and described. The results showed that tangerines and siamese in Gadingkulon Village had an imperfect competitive market structure which was monopolistic. Marketing of the two types of oranges involves four channels i.e. collectors, retailers (inside and outside Malang Regency), and wholesalers. Oranges marketing system is not yet efficient, where wholesalers have larger profit margin ratio than other market players. Marketing channels I and II for tangerines are more efficient than channels III and IV. Meanwhile, marketing channel I for siamese is more efficient than channel II, III, and IV.

Oranges are favored by consumers, especially during pandemic covid-19, because they contain high vitamin C. Gadingkulon Village, located in Dau District, Indonesia, is one of the largest oranges producing villages. Mainstay plantation commodities of the village are tangerines and siamese. Agricultural commodities generally fluctuate in price and production. The study’s purpose was to evaluate feasibility of farming tangerines and siamese. Data were collected from 87 farmers who grow both types of oranges. Farmers were selected by simple random sampling, where the number is determined using slovin formula. The data were analyzed using investment criteria of revenue cost ratio, benefit cost ratio, break event point for price and production, payback period, net present value and internal rate of return. The results show that tangerine and siamese farming were feasible to develop because investment criteria number exceeds some criteria. Payback period is less than five years, price and production break event point were lower than that received by farmers, net present value is relatively large and positive, rate of return on capital is higher than social opportunity cost of capital. Oranges farming was feasible yet, even though prices have fallen by 10% and production by 30%. Siamese were more profitable than tangerines.

Farmers in Sumberejo Village cultivate vegetables simultaneously during certain seasons on their land. This study aims to analyze potential for increased production vegetables during Covid-19 pandemic. Data collected from 45 randomly selected farmers were analyzed using Cobb Douglas production function. The analysis showed that land area had a very significant effect and positive on the production of celery, mustard greens and red chilies. Seeds did not have a significant effect on celery and mustard greens production, but had a significant effect on red chilies. Fertilizers did not have a significant effect on the vegetables yields. Labor had a significant effect in different directions on celery production (positive) and pakcoy (negative), but does not have a significant effect on red chili. Pesticides only had a significant effect and positive on celery, while the mustard greens and red chilies have no significant effect. During a pandemic, the expansion of production vegetables included in category increasing return to scale, because sum of input coefficients was greater than one. These results can be a signal for farmers to increase their production. Government should regulate distribution of these commodities and the prices stability because people must keep their distance.

At present, business of people's dairy cows in Ngantang District is still carried out traditionally. Commonly, the feeds provided are concentrates, additives and forages (elephant grass, corn stalks, field grass). This study aims to analyze efficiency of concentrate, additive and forage feed in the production of dairy cows in Ngantang District, Malang Regency. Population in this study were all dairy farmers from three villages in Ngantang District: Pandansari, Jombok and Waturejo Villages. Sample was determined by simple random sampling method of 100 farmers. Data analysis method used is multiple linear regression models. The results showed, the factors that had a significant effect on cow's milk production were forage and concentrate feed. NPMxi/Pxi = 1,704 (NPMxi/Pxi > 1) indicates that forage feeding has not been efficient so that forage feeding can be increased. NPMxi/Pxi concentrate feed is 0.053 (NPMxi/Pxi < 1), indicating that concentrate feed is inefficient so the amount must be reduced.
