The research method used in this research is a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data collection techniques used interviews, observation, and documentation studies. Analyzed with data analysis techniques through data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Data validity testing is done through triangulation, membercheck, and ethical consideration. The focus of this research is on the Implementation of the Sustainable Food Yard Program (P2L) in Curug District, Serang City, Banten Province. The results showed that the implementation of the Sustainable Food Yard (P2L) program in Curug District is still not running optimally. This is because there are still some shortcomings and obstacles that occur such as the lack of program assistants, the cessation of planting activities in some KWT, the decline in member activeness, the availability of minimal facilities and infrastructure, poor land loan agreements, inadequate cash availability. Therefore, the Sustainable Food Yard program in Curug District, Serang City requires improvement and this is done by collaborating between various parties, both DKP3, extension workers at BPP, and KWT as program beneficiaries, so that the implementation of KWT can run</em> <em>well.</em></p> ifda roflianti, Suwaib Amirudin, Tiwi Rizkiyani Copyright (c) 2025 NIAGARA Scientific Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 http://kampus.stiabanten.ac.id/ojs/index.php/niagara/article/view/218 Fri, 11 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000 EVALUASI PROGRAM PRAKTISI MENGAJAR TAHUN 2024 DI SEKOLAH TINGGI ILMU ADMINISTRASI BANTEN http://kampus.stiabanten.ac.id/ojs/index.php/niagara/article/view/224 <p><em>The Teaching Practitioner Program is part of the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka program of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology of the Republic of Indonesia.

The aim of this research is to gain an in-depth understanding of the factors causing low discipline in village officials. The reference used is the opinion of Sutrisno (2010: 89-92) which states that the factors that cause work discipline are compensation, leadership example, definite rules that can be used as a guide, leadership courage in taking action, management supervision, attention to employees and habits. - habits that support the establishment of discipline. The results of the research concluded that the low level of discipline of village officials in Lebak Regency, Banten Province was caused by a compensation system that was not yet performance-based, a lack of exemplary leadership, the absence of technical and operational regulations that could be used as a guide, a lack of leadership courage in taking action, a lack of leadership supervision, There is not yet full attention to village officials and there is not yet a strong organizational culture that supports the upholding of discipline.</em></p> <p><em>&nbsp;</em><em>Key words: discipline, government, village.</em></p> Rusito Rusito Copyright (c) 2025 NIAGARA Scientific Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 http://kampus.stiabanten.ac.id/ojs/index.php/niagara/article/view/225 Fri, 11 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000 a PENGARUH BEBAN KERJA DAN LINGKUNGAN KERJA TERHADAP KEPUASAN KERJA KARYAWAN DI PT FREYJA TELEMA KONSTRUKSINDO TANGERANG SELATAN http://kampus.stiabanten.ac.id/ojs/index.php/niagara/article/view/226 <p><em>This study aims to find out whether there is an influence of workload and work environment on employee job satisfaction at PT.

This study adopts a quantitative approach, with the method of selecting respondents using purposive sampling technique. A total of 204 respondents were collected as a representative sample. Primary data was obtained through questionnaire distribution and analysed using multiple linear regression method. The results of the analysis show that both tax administration reform and tax knowledge have a significant influence on the level of WPOP compliance, both separately (partial) and together (simultaneous). Interestingly, tax knowledge has a greater contribution than administrative reform, indicating that adequate understanding of the tax system is more effective in shaping compliance behaviour than system changes alone. The regression equation obtained in this study: Y = -30.222 + 0.650X1 + 0.907X2, with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 52.5%, meaning that more than half of the variation in taxpayer compliance can be explained by the two variables. This finding strengthens the argument that the success of fiscal policy relies heavily on the integration between structural reforms in tax administration and the improvement of people's tax literacy capacity. Both are important foundations in encouraging voluntary and sustainable compliance.</em></p> Kevin Adiyatma, Juliannes Cadith Copyright (c) 2025 NIAGARA Scientific Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 http://kampus.stiabanten.ac.id/ojs/index.php/niagara/article/view/252 Fri, 11 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000 DAMPAK SOSIAL EKONOMI CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR) PT.

Indomarco DC Tangerang in terms of social and economic activities and socialization procedures that are still hampered and felt to be less comprehensive to the surrounding community. The purpose of this study was to determine the social impact and economic impact of Corporate Social Responsibility of PT. Indomarco Prismatama at the Distribution Center in Tangerang Regency. The research method used in this study is to use a descriptive research type using a qualitative approach. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) of PT. Indomarco Prismatama has had a real positive impact on the social and economic aspects of the community in Tangerang Regency. In the social aspect, the public facility renovation program, distribution of basic necessities, and skills training have succeeded in improving community welfare and empowering local communities. However, the scope of this program is still limited, and the lack of socialization hinders community participation. On the other hand, the economic aspect shows significant results through support for local MSMEs and absorption of local labor, which helps reduce unemployment and encourage regional economic growth.</em></p> <p><em>Keywords: Implementation, Corporate Social Responsibility, Social and economic.</em></p> <p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> jumanah Jumanah, Thalitha Islamey Assyifa Copyright (c) 2025 NIAGARA Scientific Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 http://kampus.stiabanten.ac.id/ojs/index.php/niagara/article/view/253 Fri, 11 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000 EVALUASI KEBIJAKAN KURIKULUM MERDEKA BELAJAR DI SMK NEGERI 3 PANDEGLANG http://kampus.stiabanten.ac.id/ojs/index.php/niagara/article/view/264 <p>ABSTRACT</p> <p>Curriculum is the main key to success in learning.
