Research by Universitas Islam Malang interviewed 40 Banjarsawah farmers about their decision to continue shallot farming.
Banjarsawah Village, Tegalsiwalan District. Researchers from Universitas Islam Malang collected data from 40 shallot farmers in November–December 2022. They used interviews, observations, and questionnaires to trace farmers' decisions to plant in the following season.
In the research analysis published in 2024, income and the level of cultivation difficulty were related to farmers' decisions at the significance threshold used by the authors. Participation in farmer groups, experience, and education did not show a significant relationship in the model. These findings apply to the research sample, not a portrait of all farmers in Tegalsiwalan District.
