AUTHOR Nugrahini Susantinah WisnujatiSuwandi S. SangadjiGancar Candra Premananto DESCRIPTION The use of pesticides in the agricultural sector has become a major concern today, especially with the increasing worries about environmental, health, and sustainability impacts. A similar situation is also a focus in Indonesia, known as an agrarian country. Therefore, the objective of this research is to comprehend farmers’ intentions in using pesticides through the planned behavior theory perspective. The method employed in this study is quantitative, utilizing a questionnaire as the research instrument. The questionnaire was developed from 25 research indicators using a seven-point Likert scale. This research adopts the “rule of thumb” formula to determine the sample size, recommending that the sample size should be more significant than 10 times the number of manifest variables. Consequently, the resulting sample size is 250 respondents. The data analysis technique in this research employs Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the SmartPLS software. The findings of this study highlight a strong relationship between knowledge, attitude, and perceived behavioral control with the intention of pesticide use. In this context, knowledge plays a central role in shaping a positive attitude, while perceived behavioral control is also significant. Although subjective norms do not significantly influence individual intentions to use pesticides, subjective norms remain an essential element in understanding individual behavior because they essentially reflect social pressure and norms accepted by individuals from their environment.

AUTHOR Zalfa KarinaGancar Candra Premananto DESCRIPTION This study aimed to evaluate and calculate the social impact value from the “Rise A Voice, Airlangga Got Talent” Program. The program was a Creating Share Value activity carried out by Master of Management students at Airlangga University for orphanages in Surabaya. It was held to provide a platform for the orphanage children’s creations and direction related to good orphanage management. However, after the implementation of the program, there were no measurement results related to the social impact received. Therefore, this research was conducted to calculate the value of the social impact using the Social Return on Investment (SROI) approach as a research method. The result showed that the Program produced an SROI value of 36.04. It can be inferred that every 1 Rupiah invested in the “Rise A Voice, Airlangga Got Talent” Program was able to generate return of Rp. 36.04. Meanwhile, the payback period can be gained in 1.7 months. This program can be categorized as successful because it is able to exceed a ratio of 1 in SROI. The calculation of SROI is important to evaluate and develop strategies for the program sustainability as an illustration for investors who are willing to invest in the same program.
