The palm oil industry has emerged as one of the leading producers and exporters, as supported by data from the Central Bureau of Statistics in 2021, which indicates that Indonesian palm oil exports reached an impressive value of USD 18.44 billion, or IDR 258 trillion, in 2020, marking 18.43 percent growth compared to the previous year. Furthermore, the domestic markets for palm oil and palm kernel oil remain substantial despite improvements in export quantities. Various industries, including cooking oil refineries, specialty fats, shortening, margarine, bath soaps, and oleochemicals, present potential markets for palm oil (CPO) and palm kernel oil (PKO). The palm oil industry encompasses four related subsectors, namely growers, millers, refiners, and oleochemicals, forming an integrated value chain from upstream to downstream. The current focus on environmental, economic, and social sustainability drives companies to adopt internal green activities and expand their efforts toward sustainable supply chain management (SSCM). Implementing SSCM practices is often seen as economically beneficial, as research has demonstrated their positive impact on corporate performance from a resource perspective. Many green management applications are utilized in the palm oil industry. This study examines and highlights existing sustainable management practices across the entire palm oil supply chain, focusing on producing high-quality palm oil. This study utilized a systematic review methodology. A total of 62 articles were analyzed, which involved an extensive review of the relevant literature to identify research trends, gaps, and issues. This study contributes to the body of knowledge by expanding the theory of organizational readiness to prepare globally competitive palm oil products. The research findings hold practical significance for practitioners and academics by providing a comprehensive road map for implementing green management applications at the organizational level in the palm oil industry’s upstream-to-downstream chain.

The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed weaknesses in traditional supply chain finance systems, highlighting the need for digital change. Blockchain technology, with its ability to create secure and transparent records of transactions, offers a potential solution. This study uses bibliometric analysis and a literature review to examine research on blockchain-enabled supply chain finance, drawing on a database of 446 articles from ScienceDirect and Scopus. The findings show a growing interest in how blockchain can improve transparency, efficiency, and security in supply chain finance, addressing challenges like information asymmetry. This study suggests future research should focus on real-world applications of blockchain, how it can be used with other technologies, regulations and governance, and the social and environmental impacts of blockchain-based supply chain finance. This research also highlights the different priorities of the Global North and South in blockchain-enabled supply chain finance. The North focuses on efficiency and traceability, while the South emphasizes adding value and transparency. A lack of research on fair pricing, especially in the Global South, points to a critical gap that future research needs to address to ensure fairness in global trade.

Further analysis shows that the completion of studies is closely related to external factors originating from outside such as education services and environmental factors, including a clean and green campus environment, a quiet and comfortable learning environment. Responsiveness to feedback from the counselor to immediately correct the thesis in an intense and timely manner is internal.Keywords: complete a study, postgraduate, external, internal, factor analysis

Economic Policy Analysis for Port Development in Province of AcehPort development was becoming a major issue in promoting national and regional economic competitiveness. However, the development of public ports in Aceh province has not been significantly caused by low port economic activity. This research used Linear Programming, qualitative description, and Analytical Hierarchy Process method. The result showed the main economic policy of port development in Aceh Province was to developing economic growth centers in hinterland by developing sectors producing goods such as agriculture, forestry and fishery sector, mining and quarrying sector, and industrial sector. The another policy was strengthen connectivity port-hinterland logistics network by improving the quality connectivity infrastructure, enhancing cooperation between port operators with exporters and logistics service providers, and build the dry port.Keywords: Economics Policy; Port Development; Hinterland; LogisticsAbstrakPengembangan pelabuhan saat ini menjadi isu utama dalam mendorong daya saing perekonomian daerah dan nasional. Namun demikian, perkembangan pelabuhan umum di Provinsi Aceh belum signifikan yang ditandai masih rendahnya aktivitas ekonomi pelabuhan. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu Linear Programming, deskripsi kualitatif, dan Analytical Hierarchy Process. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kebijakan ekonomi utama pengembangan pelabuhan di Provinsi Aceh adalah membangun pusat-pusat pertumbuhan ekonomi di wilayah penyangga dengan mengembangkan sektor pertanian, kehutanan dan perikanan, sektor pertambangan dan penggalian, serta sektor industri. Kebijakan lainnya yaitu menguatkan konektivitas jaringan logistik pelabuhan-wilayah penyangga dengan cara meningkatkan kualitas infrastruktur penghubung, meningkatkan kerja sama antara operator pelabuhan dengan eksportir dan penyedia jasa logistik, serta membangun terminal barang.
