Abstract We are very happy to bring you the proceedings of the first International Conference of Agriculture, Natural Resources, and Rural Development (ICANaRD). This conference is intended to maintain knowledge exchange on policy support that allows for improving resource management for agricultural competitiveness towards progressive, self-reliance, and modern agriculture. The theme of 1st ICANaRD is “Enhancing Agricultural Competitiveness through Better Resource Management for Farmers’ Welfare” to address critical issues, innovative methods, and accountable measures to formulate strong policy support for sustainable an inclusive agricultural development. The conference was held virtually on 27-28 July 2021, hosted by the Indonesian Center for Agriculture Socio Economic and Policy Studies (ICASEPS), Ministry of Agriculture. The conference was organized in collaboration with the Indonesian Society of Agricultural Economics (ISAE). Agriculture and rural sector remain to be major economic drivers at which agricultural producers and rural economies need to be supported through appropriate policies. Policy support should allow a fair agricultural product competitiveness, both for local markets and for global trade. With all challenges faced by stakeholders in rural areas, the availability of resources needs to be inclusively managed to meet the right balance between economic growth, poverty reduction, and environmental sustainability. High recognition on this condition would lead to key elements as foundation to recreate appropriate policy, institutional role, and financial support to promote agricultural resource competitiveness for sustainable and inclusive development of rural sector.

Content of the concept of the rural sector as a socio-territorial subsystem of society is revealed. The key features of the subsystem are habitation of people in rural areas and their relationship with production and processing of agricultural products. It is proved that opportunities of rural residents and persons engaged in agriculture are limited in comparison with other citizens in terms of meeting their vital needs. Evolution of the term “inclusive development” in the context of its relationship to “inclusive growth” and “inclusive welfare” is considered. From the standpoint of inclusiveness, the socioeconomic situation in Ukraine’s agriculture in the Soviet period, in the years of active market transformations and at the present stage is characterized. It is shown that the extractive development of agriculture and rural areas gained an advantage at all stages, despite the declaration by political forces of the intentions to protect the interests of rural residents and producers of agricultural products, as well as the recommendations of scientists on realization of these interests. The extractive development was accompanied by resource-exhausting nature of management and restriction of real access of peasants to productive resources and distribution of benefits from their use. The necessity of transition to inclusive development in domestic rural sector is substantiated and conditions for this transition are revealed. Important factors in this should be: (i) Ukraine’s implementation of measures to ensure the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals proclaimed at the UN summit in 2015, and (ii) support and implementation of the ideas of the Declaration of the Rights of Peasants and Other People Working in Rural Areas, draft of which is being discussed at the United Nations Human Rights Council.

The Impact

Income inequality may hinder rural development and education is seen an important tool in rural development processes as well as it become an effective way in reducing rural income inequality. Human capital theory suggests that higher education can increase income, and it will decrease income inequality. The first objective of this study is to examine the effect of education on rural income inequality in Indonesia. This study also examines the relationship between environmental deterioration and rural income inequality. Studies about the impact of higher levels of inequality on environmental deterioration are not new, but the opposite studies are rare. Therefore, the second objective of this study is to examine the effect of environmental deterioration on rural income inequality in Indonesia. This study applies panel data from 32 provinces in Indonesia during 2012 to 2018. The results show that higher education resulting in lower rural income inequality in Indonesia. Furthermore, the finding also shows that the efforts to reduce environmental deterioration resulting in lower rural income inequality in Indonesia. This study suggests that it is vital to improve education level and to apply nature-friendly approaches to reduce income gaps in rural areas so the rural development goals can be achieved.

The article considers the essential features of rural development as a multi-vector process, which not only involves economic growth in rural areas, but also requires its adaptation to human behavior, social and political structure of rural communities and their involvement in development processes. It also reflects systemic positive changes in rural areas, which are initiated "from bottom" and supported "from top". In this concept of rural development, inclusiveness is inherent. The authors show that the development of the concept of "inclusive rural development" took place in the process of enrichment and specification of the theoretical concepts of sustainable development, inclusive growth and inclusive development in relation to the rural sector of society. This concept denotes a development whose result consists in the creation of proper conditions for the rural population for such purposes as: the use of land and other local resources in the economic activities; adequate distribution of the results of economic growth in the agriculture and other sectors of the rural economy; and participation in social and public life for the consolidation of communities and observance of human rights. Such development leads to the reduction of poverty, overcoming the economic, social and political exclusion of people residing in rural areas. It is pointed out that ensuring the inclusive development is a function of the state regulation of national economy. To implement it in Ukraine, it is necessary to ensure, first of all, the implementation, in the regulatory and legal framework, of the global goals of sustainable development and the objectives for their achievement. That could be realized by adopting the Law on the Strategy for Sustainable Development until 2030, and, in the part of inclusive rural development, also the Law on the Basic Principles of the State Agrarian Policy and State Policy of Rural Development.

The purpose of the article is to generalize theoretical approaches to defining the essence of balanced rural development through the prism of the evolution of theories of spatial and inclusive development and the concept of sustainable eco-socio-economic growth. Research methods. The methodological basis of the research was general scientific and economic research methods, scientific works of Ukrainian and foreign scientists on sustainable rural development and the evolution of scientific thought regarding this problem. In particular, the research used the following methods: abstract-logical (when proposing a hypothesis, making generalizations, formulating conclusions and proposals); analysis and synthesis (in the study of the evolution of theories of spatial and inclusive development and the concept of sustainable eco-socio-economic growth); induction and deduction (to study the essence of the category of balanced rural development). Research results. The evolution of the main economic theories of sustainable rural development, which, developing gradually according to the laws of dialectics, inherited the scientific developments and predictions of scientists of several generations, is revealed. Scientific novelty. Scientific approaches to the interpretation of the category "sustainable development of rural areas" were further developed, which was proposed to be understood as a process of improving the level and quality of life of the rural population, which, in turn, contributes to a variety of types of agricultural and non-agricultural activities, productive employment, diversification of incomes of rural households and filling budgets of local communities, social protection of residents, modern infrastructural development of the settlement network, preservation and enhancement of soil fertility, protection of landscapes and biological diversity. Practical significance. The study of the theories of spatial economics, inclusive growth and sustainable development can be-come in the future a scientific and methodological basis for the balanced (sustainable) development of rural areas, which will contribute to the restoration of human-centered socio-economic and ecological equilibrium in conditions of destabilizing internal and external factors.

The present chapter aimed at making out the possibility of sustainable rural development by husbanding precious resources in the rural areas, particularly the rural areas of the Central Karakoram zone in Pakistan. For this purpose, a qualitative research design was manipulated in order to decipher the maximum chance of attaining rural sustainability in these areas through a thorough perusal of various relevant past studies. Hence, the information, gleaned from the archival sources and elucidated hermeneutically, signified a high level of effectiveness of the economical use of natural resources for retaining sufficient and passable degree of sustainability in the rural areas. Consequently, the hermeneutic assertions, made by the researcher of this study, accentuated the inculcation of numerous assorted customary husbandry methods, adopted and employed by the pure traditional rural communities, among the modern rural population of the Central Karakoram zone in Pakistan as well in order to enhance the possibility of arriving at the rural sustainability in these areas. Recognizing the value of certain reliable husbandry practices, the study deemed and estimated a maximum accomplishment of targets set out for attaining sustainable rural development all around the world, particularly in the Central Karakoram zone in Pakistan.

The deep changes in the development of the Ukrainian rural sector under the influence of gaining political independence, carrying out agrarian and land reforms, full replacement of state power and phased reform of the administrative-territorial system are analyzed. It has been established that the rural sector of Ukraine covers two key components: the industrial-branch (primary production and technologically related industries) and socio-territorial (rural and small urban settlements with population, objects of social sphere and territory as spatial basis of primary production). Asymmetry of their development lies in the fact that the food complex enhances production, but this is not accompanied by an increase in living standards and quality of the rural population living environment. In recent years, the rural sector has a number of new challenges and acute problems that require in-depth research and development and implementation of measures to overcome asymmetry in its development based on a number of innovations. Among the innovations are the completion of the administrative-territorial system post-soviet reform, the gradual shift of the responsibility center for the development of the rural sector into the combined territorial and rural communities; the continuation of systemic safety methods implementation at primary production and completion farms at processing and food enterprises; Significant increase in the volume of local budgets as a result of management decentralization and the fiscal system, capitalization of natural resources and non-performing objects, introduction of local taxes; the active development of families and farms, and especially on lands that will be transferred to the jurisdiction of the united communities, and the revival of agricultural activity on abandoned lands grappling with the deserted villages, etc. The brainstorming and overcoming the consequences of destructive processes in rural areas, and especially in crisis zones, should ensure the implementation by united communities of measures to create favorable conditions for the placement of non-agrarian activities, the inclusion of small farms in production and distribution chains, the creation of professional mini-associations of food producers, agricultural production and service cooperatives for the purpose of labor-intensive production operations prompt execution, timely collection and sales of grown products, assistance in solving domestic problems of rural population, facilitating the accessibility of remote village residents to basic services, etc. Areas of research in the rural sector are systematized, in the course of which implementation of the results will ensure the strengthening of sustainable development of rural areas. Among them: methodical recommendations for assessing the productive potential of rural communities and ensuring the increase of tax revenues to the budgets of the combined territorial communities, taking into account the availability of rural assets (natural resources, minerals, other objects) and their inclusion in the economic circulation; the development of conceptual foundations, the formation of economic echanisms and tools for supporting families and farms, which will be organized on unoccupied agricultural lands, as well as on the basis of labor generations revitalization; improvement of existing mechanisms and tools for managing the development of the rural sector in order to increase the effectiveness of the new administrative-territorial organization system and self-organization of citizens; formation of an effective model of small farms involvement in the production of final food products and its promotion in production and distribution chains, etc. Key words: rural sector, industrial-branch component, socio-territorial component, rural territories, challenges and problems, asymmetry and balanced development, united territorial and rural / domestic communities, depressive zones, family and farming farms.

Methodological Approaches

The purpose of the article is substantiation of the theoretical and methodological provisions of inclusive rural development and the development of guidelines for assessing social, economic and political changes in rural areas for compliance with the principles of inclusive development. Research methods. As a methodological base for the development of the problem under study, the provisions of the concept of inclusive growth and development, as well as rural development, were used. The research used methods: analysis and synthesis (in the study of the nature and main provisions of inclusive rural development), comparative analysis (in the analysis of methods for developing integrated indices and determining their advantages and disadvantages), statistical methods (for calculating the integral index of inclusive rural development). Research results. The research improves the theoretical and methodological principles of inclusive rural development and develops methodological approaches to its measurement. The proposed methodological approach is based on the measurement of inclusive rural development in two areas: the sectoral dimension, which includes the political, social and economic components of inclusion; a component dimension that assesses inclusion at the level of access, quality and distribution of goods and services. The existing methodological approaches to the development of integrated indices that can be used for measuring inclusive rural development are analyzed. Given the advantages and disadvantages of available methods, as well as the possibility of their application for the purposes of this study, the feasibility of using the method of weighted amounts for integrated assessment of inclusive rural development is justified. The normative approach was used as a method of standardization of indicators. It is established that the lag in the level of inclusive development in rural areas is -0.073 or -11.7% of national indicators. The variation of deviations in the components of sectoral inclusion is higher than in the component inclusion. In the sectoral dimension, the largest deviation of indices compared to national indicators is observed for social inclusion (-0.122 or -16.3%), and the smallest - for political (-0.04 or -6.8%). Variation of deviations from national indicators by types of inequality in access, quality and distribution of goods and services - by component inclusion, has a smaller range: -9.2… -13.2%. Scientific novelty. Theoretical provisions of inclusive rural development are developed and a methodological approach for its assessment is proposed based on the use of a two-dimensional matrix of indicators, which includes three sectoral dimensions (political, social and economic) and three component dimensions of inclusiveness (accessibility, quality and distribution of public goods and services). Practical significance. The developed methodological approach can be used to monitor the program documents implementation in the sustainable development sphere, the implementation of rural development policies and inclusive development. The flexibility of the methodological approach as for using different sets of indicators allows it to be implemented at the UTC level, which is planned to justify and test in the following publications.

The development of Vietnam rural sector has been given attention by different orientations and policy frameworks, of which rural finance is the key tool, notably the Decree 41 on cred- it for rural sector. The Vietnam rural financial sector has been growing and making significant contribution to its rural development by a rapid expansion of outreach and available fund sources. However, there have been remaining problems that are very likely to hinder the sector from its further development. Such problems are: (1) there is a lack of responsive and adequate financial services in rural areas; (2) a significant number of the poor households still do not have access to any microfinance services, to name a few. Thus, this paper is intented to focus on two main issues. The first is to analyze the causes of such problems, and the second is to pro- vide recommendations that are strongly expected to overcome such problems to enhance Vietnam rural development in the new decade with the Development Millenium Goal.
