Agribusiness analysis of seed producer supports increased soybean production in East Java production centre areas by Ruly Krisdiana, Dian Adi Anggraeni Elisabeth, Moh Saeri, Yanti Rina Darsani, Rusli Burhansyah, Juliana Carolina Kilmanun, Umi Karomah Yaumidin, Made Jana Mejaya, Didik Harnowo, Arief Harsono

“…Threats faced by soybean seed producers include suboptimal post-harvest handling and the rapidly decreasing soybean seed germination. The strategy in developing soybean seed producer that can be proposed are: growing soybean seed farmers at each production centre location to meet the needs of seeds on time, quantity, variety, agroclimate, quality, and price, so as to meet the need of local farmers quickly, and reduce the risk of rapidly decreasing seed germination.…”
