The local community of Sibedi Village, Marawola District, Sigi Regency, Central Sulawesi, continues to utilize medicinal plants as part of their traditional healthcare practices. This indigenous knowledge has been passed down through generations and remains an important component of daily life. Medicinal plants are obtained from surrounding environments, including forests, agricultural lands, and home gardens, either growing naturally or being cultivated by local residents. This study aimed to identify medicinal plant species and their uses, determine methods of preparation and application, and describe the habitat and growth forms of medicinal plants utilized by the community. The research was conducted in Sibedi Village using a descriptive method with a snowball sampling technique. Data were collected through field observations, interviews, documentation, and plant identification, and were analyzed descriptively using a qualitative approach. The results showed that, based on interviews with 48 respondents, the community utilized 61 medicinal plant species belonging to 35 plant families to treat 38 different ailments. Plant parts used included leaves, fruits, tubers, sap, stems, roots, stem thorns, plant water, and whole plants. Preparation methods were relatively simple, including boiling, pounding, soaking, burning, squeezing, and direct consumption without processing. The plants were administered by drinking, eating, applying, rubbing, attaching, or instilling. Medicinal plants were found in various habitats such as forests, agricultural lands, home gardens, and mountainous areas, with growth forms including trees, shrubs, herbs, and lianas

Corn is the second most strategic commodity after rice because, in several regions of Indonesia, it remains the second staple food after rice. Corn also plays an important role in industrial development as a raw material for both the food processing industry and the livestock feed industry, particularly poultry feed. As the food processing industry continues to expand in Indonesia, the demand for corn is expected to increase. Sigi Regency is one of the regions contributing to corn production in Central Sulawesi. Fluctuations in corn production in Sigi Regency directly affect the availability of corn in Central Sulawesi. The problem addressed in this study is the level of income generated from corn farming and whether corn farming is economically feasible in Bunga Village, Palolo District, Sigi Regency. This study aimed to determine the income earned from corn farming and to assess its economic feasibility. The research location was purposively selected, while respondents were chosen using the Simple Random Sampling method. The study was conducted from March to May 2022. The results showed that the average income earned by farmers was IDR 3,157,898.47 per 0.89 ha per cropping season, equivalent to IDR 3,548,200.53 per hectare per cropping season. Corn farming in Bunga Village, Palolo District, was found to be economically feasible, as indicated by an R/C ratio of 1.85. This means that every IDR 1.00 spent in production costs generated a return of IDR 1.85 per 0.89 ha per cropping season.

Population growth has increased the demand for land and water, leading to changes in land use, particularly in forest areas. These changes can affect watershed hydrological functions and increase flood risk through greater surface runoff. Therefore, conservation efforts are needed to maintain watershed sustainability and water availability. The Uwemanje Sub-watershed plays an important role as a hydrological regulator and irrigation water source for several villages in Kinovaro District, Sigi Regency, Central Sulawesi Province, including Uwemanje, Porame, Binangga, Baliase, Boya Baliase, Padende, and Sibedi. This study aimed to assess the hydrological condition of the Uwemanje Sub-watershed by analyzing its runoff coefficient (C). The research was conducted from April to June 2022 in Uwemanje Village. The Rational Method was applied using streamflow discharge and rainfall data to determine the runoff coefficient. The results showed that the watershed area covered 12,470,000 m², with a daily discharge of 12,966.57 m³ and rainfall of 0.07893 m. The calculated runoff coefficient (C) was 0.0013. This value indicates that most rainfall is still able to infiltrate into the soil, resulting in relatively low surface runoff. Therefore, the hydrological condition of the Uwemanje Sub-watershed catchment area remains stable, and the forest's function as a regulator of water flow has not experienced significant physical disturbance.

The use of seeds and labor are among the production factors that can influence the income generated from lowland rice farming. Cost efficiency of these production factors can be improved through the application of appropriate planting techniques. This study aimed to compare the income of lowland rice farming using a Rice Transplanter planting machine and the conventional planting method in Berdikari Village, Palolo District, Sigi Regency. The research was conducted from October to December 2022. A total of 20 respondents were involved in the study. Ten farmers who applied the conventional planting method were selected using simple random sampling, while ten farmers who used the Rice Transplanter were selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using farm income analysis. The results showed that the average income of lowland rice farmers using the Rice Transplanter was IDR 13,362,995 per planting season. In contrast, farmers who applied the conventional planting method earned an average income of IDR 7,942,440 per planting season. These findings indicate that the use of the Rice Transplanter provides higher farm income compared to the conventional planting method, suggesting that mechanized planting technology can improve the economic performance of lowland rice farming.

One of the issues that can affect the revenue and development of an agroindustry business is the availability of raw materials. Raw material inventory control is an activity to manage inventory according to the needs so that the agroindustry business remains stable. IKM Banua Cokelat must have a standard for the quantity of raw materials to be ordered, when to place the order, and the amount of safety stock that must be prepared. The research location was deliberately chosen at IKM Banua Cokelat, located on Otto Iskandardinata Street, Palu City, where the research was conducted from February to April 2024. The purpose of this study is to determine the order quantity, storage costs, and ordering costs of IKM Banua Cokelat’s raw materials. The number of respondents was 3 people, namely the IKM leader, the Production department, and the Marketing department. The data analysis used is the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) analysis and Total Cost (TC) and raw material storage costs. The results of the study indicate that the EOQ value of raw material inventory for IKM Banua Cokelat in 2023 is 209,334 kg, with a total ordering cost of Rp 4,800,000 and a total storage cost of Rp 2,457,000. This suggests that the procurement of chocolate bar raw materials by IKM Banua Cokelat is not yet efficient.
