“…In developing, nations such as Malaysia have felt the heat of this rice demand (Barik et al 2019 ; FAO 2019 ; Jamal et al 2014 ). The agriculture minister specified that Malaysia imported 740,000 tons of rice last year, which cost them RM1.18Billion (Thestar 2019 ).…”

“…Paddy or rice is unique among the world’s major food crops by the advantage of variety as well as its adaptability to a broad range of climates, edaphic, and cultural conditions (Jamal et al 2014 ). Its unique ability to grow and produce high caloric food values per unit area on all types of land, combined with its adaptation to a wide variety of climates and agricultural conditions, makes rice the most important cereal crop in Malaysia (Salehi et al 2015 ).…”

“…Conversely, development assistance policymakers, media professionals, and opinion-shapers have often looked for different ways to use communication systems to achieve social change among farmers about environmental risks (Jamal et al 2014 ). The concern for the environment has challenged the education of the environment to move ahead toward a more socially critical role which involves challenging bias; whereas, this kind of rational decision-making process is to analyze the solutions and the potential for change which can be supported by the farmers (Rabu and Shah 2013 ).…”

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in more than 4.3 million confirmed cases and more than 2,90,000 deaths worldwide. It has also given rise to fears of an imminent economic crisis and recession. Social distance, self-isolation, and travel restrictions have led to a reduction in the workforce across all economical sectors and have led to a loss of many jobs. Schools have closed down, and the need for commodities and manufactured goods has decreased. On the other hand, the need for medical supplies has increased significantly. The food sector is also facing increased demand as a result of panic buying and storing food products. In response to this global outbreak, we summarize the socioeconomic effects of COVID-19 on the various aspects of the world economy. In Malaysia, the COVID-19 epidemic has checked the resilience of the agriculture sector. Especially the Malaysian paddy industry as country imports 30% of its overall consumption from different parts of the world. The real price of rice triplicating for the consumers, which was alarming for nations in this pandemic situation. The Government of Malaysia introduced the National Agrofood Policy 2011-2020 (NAP4) in 2010 as a guidance document for the implementation of agricultural sector development programs and projects in Malaysia. The NAP4 's 10-year term is to be finished by the end of 2020. Several sectors demonstrate substantial success after approximately 8 years of introduction, while the other classes often lag behind the goal and progress quite slowly. Agricultural sector performance is affected by many problems and challenges. In acknowledgment of the poor success of this field, the Ministry of Agriculture and Agri-Based Industry has launched new approaches, policies, and programs that can change the agricultural sector more rapidly. The new direction is aimed at ensuring national food security and boosting farm and revenues. The authorized government agency needs to revise the policy formulation where Malaysia needs to set stages to revolutionize and modernize the rice farming to address the problem faced by the paddy sector in this pandemic situation to adopt GF. In this study, the researcher focuses on the improvisation of the policy to increase the paddy production sustainably.

“…Keputusan petani membudidayakan jenis tanaman sayuran didorong oleh keuntungan ekonomi, efisiensi penggunaan lahan dan tenaga kerja, dan ketersediaan sarana produksi, serta daya beli petani (Indraningsih, 2013). Preferensi petani tersebut juga dipengaruhi oleh dukungan kelembagaan (Jamal et al, 2013) dan karakteristik petani seperti pendidikan formal dan non formal, pengalaman bertani, dan pemanfaatan teknologi (Dewi et al, 2017).…”

“…Hal ini berarti bahwa semakin banyak petani memperoleh informasi melalui dialog, semakin besar peluang mereka untuk mengadopsi inovasi pertanian bioindustri. Hasil penelitian Jamal et al (2014) menunjukkan bahwa komunikasi di antara petani dapat mendorong adopsi suatu inovasi dan dipengaruhi pengambilan keputusan petani. Umumnya petani berkomunikasi dengan petani lain dalam jaringan sosial untuk membantu mereka membuat suatu keputusan.…”

ABSTRAK Penerapan inovasi pertanian bioindustri integrasi serai wangi dan ternak sapi bertujuan untuk meningkatkan produktivitas lahan dan mengurangi pemanfaatan input dari luar. Namun, penerapan inovasi tersebut oleh petani cenderung lambat. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan PENDAHULUANPemanfaatan inovasi dalam pembangunan pertanian berkelanjutan bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat tanpa mengabaikan kelestarian sumber daya alam dan lingkungan serta kebutuhan masyarakat, baik untuk generasi saat ini maupun generasi mendatang (Saptana dan Ashari 2007). Pembangunan pertanian berkelanjutan merupakan paradigma pembangunan pertanian yang saat ini dianggap sebagai solusi alternatif untuk menggantikan paradigma pembangunan pertanian sebelumnya yang berorientasi pada peningkatan produksi.
