Organic products are products that are currently the main choice for consumers who care about their health. In addition, organic products also reduce the impact of environmental damage and are healthier than conventional products. However, in some previous studies that examined the model of attitudes and intentions in behavior of the organic product consumption has shown there are no consistent results yet. The aim of this study was to gain insight into consumers' purchase behavior, to determine the influence of health concern, environmental concern, product quality and knowledge on attitude, purchase intention and how that can effect an actual purchase behavior of consumers' toward organic product in Aceh. This study was conducted on 310 consumers that consume organic product in Aceh. The sample were taken using purposive sampling technique and the sample data were statistically analyzed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The result shows that attitude and purchase intention was significantly affected by health concern, product quality and knowledge but not by environmental concern. Then, attitude was have a significant direct effect on purchase intention, and this significant result has an impact on actual purchase behavior, in which attitude and purchase intention significantly affected actual purchase behavior of consumers' toward organic product.
Indonesia mengalami perkembangan industri yang sangat pesat, salah satunya adalah industri Pariwisata. Salah satu subsektor industri pariwsata yang paling banyak dikunjungi adalah ekowisata. Pengembanagn ekowisata dapat berperan sebagai model pengembangan pariwisata berkelanjutan yang memperhatikan aspek ekologi, sosial, dan ekonomi serta bagian dari kebijakan lokal. Maka dilakukan kajian potensi pengembangan ekowisata dengan analisis deskriptif kualitatif dengan pendekatan SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat) yang digunakan untuk menyusun potensi pengembangan ekowisata di Kecamatan Rumbia. Analisis deskriptif dimulai dengan identifikasi potensi ekowisata, aksesibilitas, dan fasilitas yang merupakan bagian dari lingkungan internal (IFAS) untuk mengetahui berbagai kemungkinan kekuatan dan kelemahan dengan. Adapun analisis lingkungan eksternal (EFAS) untuk mengetahui berbagai kemungkinan peluang dan ancaman diperoleh persepsi stekholder, masyarakat dan wisatawan terhadap potensi pengembangan ekowisata Kecamatan Rumbia. Berdasarkan hasil yang diperoleh bahwa Kawasan Ekowisata Kecamatan Rumbia ini merupakan daerah yang sangat potensial untuk dikembangkan sebagai wisata dilihat dari kapasitas ekologi berupa daya tarik, kapasitas sosial, dan kapasitas ekonomi, namun kapasitas sarana prasarana belum memadai yang harus direncanakan baik. Strtegi priorotas dalam mendukung pengembangan Kawasan ekowisata Kecamatan Rumbia dengan cepat adalah mengembangankan paket perjalan pada Kawasan Ekowisata, membangun akses dengan pusat ekonomi, Pendidikan, dan pemerintahan, melakukan kerja sama dengan Pemerintah Provinsi Sulawesi selatan dari segala aspek, dan melakukan promosi melalui sosial media.
One of the causes of decrease forest functions is deforestation. Deforestation is a nonforest cover change activity that affects the decrease function of forest ecosystems. South Sulawesi and West Sulawesi Provinces are two areas that have experienced high deforestation. The area of forest in South and West Sulawesi in 1990 amounted to 2,550,946.13 ha. The number decreased in 2019 amounted to 2,213,628.88 ha. This study aims to identify and understand the spatial model of deforestation based on biophysical driving factors in South Sulawesi and West Sulawesi Provinces from 1990 to 2019. Materials used in this study were Statistics Data Centers in 1990, 2000, 2010, and 2019, Deforestation Profiles at South Sulawesi and West Sulawesi, literature supporting research. Data analysis used PCA (Principal Component Analysis) method. The results of this research explain that the driving factors the occurrence of deforestation in each location of the most influential research is the factor of the road, the closer the forest area to the road the higher the public desire to penetrate the forest area in addition, facilitate agricultural activities to distribute forest products and logs felling. River factors also have a role in the occurrence of deforestation, the community is very dependent on water needs primarily for agricultural land and plantations. In addition, the slope and altitude factors are also quite influential on the occurrence of deforestation due to the clearing of land in a fairly flat area with low altitude as in the Regency Bone and North Luwu, South Sulawesi province is very visible influence over the topographic areas of mountains and steep as in the Regency of Mamuju and Mamasa Regency, West Sulawesi Province. Areas with such topography, have a low level of accessibility so that the pressure and disturbance are low enough from the community.
The community has used the land throughout the area without exception in the forest area. The function of forest areas also varies based on the biophysical conditions of a land. The Maros River Basin has a complex forest area function ranging from production forest, protection forest to conservation forest (National Park). In addition, the Maros watershed also has its own uniqueness in the form of a karst ecosystem and biodiversity. This requires information related to activities, and the role of forests for people who use land in forest areas to meet their daily needs. Based on this, this study aims to analyze land use patterns, and socio-economic characteristics of the people in the Maros River Basin. This analysis begins with spot image analysis, and land use interpretation. The second analysis conducts detailed observations of land use in the field based on the results of land use interpretations that indicate community activities in forest areas. The last analysis is the socio-economic conditions, and the influence of the role of the forest on the community in using land in the forest area. The results of the analysis show that each area function is dominated by land use patterns in the form of dry land mixed with shrubs, rice fields, plantations, plantation forests, and secondary forests. Land use in the form of dry land mixed with shrubs is used as seasonal crops such as corn and horticulture. The use of plantation land, the community gets results in the form of candlenut and coffee. The use of plantation forest land is used to obtain pine resin, while the community uses the secondary forest as non-timber forest products such as honey bees and bamboo. The level of education of people who use forest areas is still low and the average income from the use of these areas is Rp. 1,372,679, - lower than the minimum wage in South Sulawesi Province.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
