“…Policymakers should focus on integrating these resources to optimize agricultural production [9]. Developing decision support systems (DSS) can help farmers make informed decisions based on previous research results and improve their resilience to disasters and climate change [10]. Encouraging the adoption of environmentally friendly farming strategies, such as carbon-efficient agriculture or green farming, can help conserve natural resources and reduce the impact of climate change on food production [11].…”

Indonesia's status as the world's fourth most populous country underscores the importance of its contribution to global food security. However, this important role comes with a series of challenges that are exacerbated by changing climate dynamics, decreasing arable land, and the inherent inefficiencies of traditional farming techniques. Balancing the need to increase productivity with the imperative to preserve the environment is a formidable challenge that necessitates a paradigm shift in agricultural practices. However, these benefits are accompanied by barriers such as knowledge gaps, financial constraints, and infrastructure limitations, which need to be effectively addressed to utilise the full potential of these technologies. This research underscores the need for a holistic and context-sensitive approach. Effective knowledge dissemination, customised financing mechanisms, improved infrastructure, and supportive policy frameworks are essential to foster the adoption and implementation of innovative practices. In addition, the research highlights the importance of collaboration among various stakeholders, including farmers, policymakers, researchers and industry players, to collectively address challenges and capitalise on opportunities. The implications of this research extend beyond the borders of Indonesia. The findings provide insights that resonate with other developing countries facing similar challenges in agricultural transformation. By bridging knowledge gaps, promoting equitable access to technology, and fostering an enabling policy environment, countries can unlock the potential of the agrotechnology revolution to meet global food needs while maintaining the ecological balance of our planet. As the world grapples with the challenges of food security in an era of climate change, this research contributes valuable knowledge to build a more sustainable and resilient future for agriculture and humanity.

In Indonesia, the development of the poultry industry is facing numerous challenges. Major constraints include high disease burdens, large fluctuations in farm input and output prices, and inadequate biosecurity. Timely and reliable information about animal production and health can help stakeholders at all levels of the value chain make appropriate management decisions to optimize their profitability and productivity while reducing risks to public health. This study aimed to describe the challenges in the Indonesian poultry industry, assess stakeholders’ needs and capabilities in terms of generating and using poultry information for making production and health management decisions, and identify levers for improvement. Interviews were conducted with a diversity of key informants and value chain actors in five Indonesian provinces. Thematic analysis was applied with an interpretivist approach to gain an in-depth understanding of the lived experiences of various stakeholders and their opinions as to what might constitute appropriate solutions. Our findings indicate that market and political instability, ineffective management of poultry data, and limited inter-sectoral collaboration are limiting the development of the sector. Increased intersectoral cooperation is needed to implement standards for data collection and sharing across the industry, provide education and practical training on the use of information technologies for farm management, and accelerate research and innovation. Our study can contribute to the development of data-driven tools to support evidence-based decision-making at all levels of the poultry system.
