The Sustainability Model of Dryland Farming in Food-Insecure Regions: Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) Approach
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Agricultural sustainability is a prerequisite for reducing poverty and food insecurity. The readiness of food is closely linked to food security and the sustainability of dryland farming. It shows a vital position in food-insecure zones. This article purposes at presenting the analyses of the sustainability model of dryland farming in food-insecure regions. The research was carried out in East Nusa Tenggara Province, which is a region with a relatively high food insecurity level in Indonesia. The samples of farmers include 240 respondents taken using the combination of purposive and snowball samplings. Survey, interviews, and observation methods were applied to gather the data, which include main and supporting data. Data were examined with Structural Equation Modeling. The research model was built based on inputs, processes, outputs, food security, both directly and indirectly, affecting the sustainability of dryland farming. The outcomes of the study have shown that the sustainability of dryland farming can be improved by using government inputs and environmental inputs, reducing family resource inputs, using appropriate farming system models, utilizing government policies, increasing output, and strengthening the food security of farmers' households. Farmers are rational in making decisions about the sustainability of their farming management which is challenged with limitations.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
