... Sustainable agro-techniques, climate-robust cultivars, biointensive modules, and need-based equipment must be created for increased sugarcane yield. Reduced production costs, increased sugar content, higher product pricing, and close collaboration between sugar mills and farmers will contribute to the desired increase in productivity (Arun & Premkumar, 2022). To encourage the growth of the sugar industry, Keerthipala (2016) emphasizes the significance of eco-friendly agricultural practices ...
Indonesian sugar imports have increased due to a steady increase in sugar consumption, while domestic sugar output has increased but has not kept pace with consumption. This study aims to examine the impact of sugar consumption, income per capita, sugarcane harvested area, and sugarcane productivity on sugar imports in Indonesia. The data in this study include time series data from 1995 to 2021 that were analyzed using multiple regression. Sugar consumption and income per capita have a statistically significant positive effect on sugar import, whereas sugarcane harvested area and sugarcane productivity significantly negatively affect sugar import. Several policy options for reducing sugar imports are recommended, including reducing sugar consumption through education and healthy lifestyle programs, extending sugarcane-harvested areas, and rejuvenating and building new sugar mill.JEL Classification: F14, C22How to Cite:Inayaturrohmah, W.

To study the effectiveness of some bio-rational management tools against sugarcane woolly aphid, experiments were conducted during 2017-18 and 2018-19 at UBKV, Pundibari, Cooch Behar (WB), India. Based on pooled analysis, the cumulative efficacy of the treatments 14 days after application was in the range of 36-100%. The treatments of imidacloprid (100%) and Verticillium lecanii (68.7%) were significantly superior to other treatments. While Metarhizium anisopliae (58.4%), azadirachtin (56.8%) and Beauveria bassiana (49.9%) were moderately effective and neem oil (35.8%) was found less effective against C. lanigera.
