DISCUSSION OF THE MATERIAL


1.      AGRICULTURAL SECTOR IN INDONESIA
Agriculture is one of the sectors which is the use of biological resources to produce a foods, industrial raw materials and energy sources. Agriculture in the broad sense include agriculture, fisheries, livestock and plantations. Development of the agricultural sector aims to meet the food and nutrition and increase income (welfare) society.

a.       During the period 1995-1997 agricultural GDP (livestock, forestry and fisheries) decreases and other sectors on manufacture increases.
b.      Before the financial crisis, the growth rate of the agricultural sector output < of ouput non-agricultural sector.
Indonesia is an archipelago with a vast land so that the livelihood largely on the agricultural sector. Agriculture is a huge potential in the four forms of contribution to national economic growth and development, namely:
a.       Expansion of the economic sector is highly dependent on the growth of output in agriculture, from both the demand and supply as sources of raw materials for production purposes in other sectors such as manufacturing and trading.
b.      Agriculture plays a very important source of growth in domestic demand for products from other sectors.
c.       As a source of capital for investment in other economic sectors.
d.      As an important source of trade surplus (source of income).

The low growth in agricultural output due to:
a.       Climate
b.      Land
c.       Quality of HR
d.      Use of Technology

2.      EXCHANGE OF FARMERS
Exchange is an item that has a fixed exchange rate with other goods. For example :
If the price of product A and product B Rp 10 to Rp 20, the exchange value of the product A to B = (PA / PB) x100% = 1/2. This means 1 product A product exchanged ½ ½ B. The unit B can swap one unit A. The cost opportunity is 1 unit A For making ½ unit B.



Basis Swap (DT)
a.       DT in the country: the exchange of two different goods in the country with national currency.
b.      International DT / Terms Of Trade: exchange of two different goods in the country with an international currency.
Farmer (NTP)
The difference in price of agricultural output at a price of inputs (the ratio of price index received by farmers dg index of prices paid). The higher the Farmer, the better.

Farmer each region is different, it depends on :
a.       Inflation each region.
b.      The distribution system for agricultural inputs.
c.       Differences in the agricultural commodity market equilibrium each region (D = S). If D> S prices will rise, where if D <S prices will decline.

Explanation of the Farmer in general :
1.      NTP> 100, means that farmers have a surplus. The rise price of production is greater than the increase price of consumption. Farmers' income increased faster than expenditures.
2.      NTP = 100, mean farmers suffered even. Increase / decrease in the price of production is equal to the percentage increase / decrease in the price of consumer goods. Farmers' income equals expenses.
3.      NTP <100, meaning farmers deficit. The increase in the price of production is relatively small compared to the rise in prices of consumption goods. Farmers' income drops, smaller than its expenditures.


3.      INVESTMENT IN AGRICULTURAL SECTOR
     The agricultural sector is saving a huge potential to be developed and could be the leading sectors in Indonesia. Indonesia is so vast land spread from Sabang to Merauke, and has fertile soil anyway. But until now the agricultural sector can not be maximized due to the lack of investment in agriculture so that the development of minimal done.

     Through agribusiness in Indonesia is very large because there are many who can not be fully utilized, policies, regulations given by the area to the public, especially potential investors both domestically and abroad, as well as facility investment planning. It is expected to further encourage prospective investors to invest in the field of agribusiness in Indonesia.

Identify the Cause of Agricultural Investment
a.               The agricultural sector has risks and uncertainties that are very high compared to other sectors.
b.               The lack of support provided to be one factor that makes investments in agriculture increasingly unattractive. As already known, the current agricultural inputs such as irrigation, for example in the area, there are some relics of the new order that have been increasingly unkempt.
c.               If wanted to establish a farm that has economies of scale large enough, so that it becomes less attractive.
d.              Still not the stability of the investment climate in Indonesia.
e.               The existence of discretion otanomi area sometimes overlaps with central government policy.
f.                There is an assumption that agricultural investment is not attractive compared with other sectors.
Impacts of Agricultural Investment
Increased investment will boost agricultural production directly, which its turn will have economic and social impacts. The expected economic impact is the increased production of various agricultural commodities and increasingly Pharmaceutics national food security, as well as the higher incomes of businesses, including farmers, foreign exchange, and agricultural GDP.

Meanwhile, the expected social impact is increasingly high employment, both in companies and businesses individual who make investments, as well as in rural areas in general. Other social impact is the declining number of poor people in rural areas. So, the rate of urbanization is adding to the problems in urban areas can be reduced.

Investment is not the only way to increase agricultural production. Another ways that can be used are agricultural technology innovation and the development competence of human resources that can improve agricultural productivity. With the increase in agricultural productivity, the rate of increasing in demand for agricultural land can be reduced, and production costs per unit of output will be more competitive. The investment should be accompanied by technological innovation and improving the quality of agricultural human resources.

Government policies to solve the problems as well as encourage investors to invest in the agricultural sector :
a.       Creating political stability (majority and minority), social stability (social inequalities and sara), economic stability (prices, rates, currency exchange rates, inflation, bank interest rates).
b.      Building a clean government free from corruption, consistency, clarity and certainty in government policy in the long term, as well as a more efficient bureaucracy, especially in terms of time and cost to permit investment.
c.       Conduct training for more skilled labor force, disciplined and have a high work ethic along with a system of reward and punishment is clearly to achieve higher labor productivity.
d.      Encourage the development of investment-based regional advantage, among others, the primary, secondary and tertiary in order to create job opportunities.

With this policy, investors are getting an investment policy certainty so that they are easier to make investment decisions. Governments also need to make efforts to approach investors for invest in agriculture.


4.      RELATIONSHIP WITH AGRICULTURAL MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY
     One of the causes of the economic crisis that is an error that isn’t based on the industrialization of agriculture. It is seen that the growth rate of the agricultural sector (+) although small, while the manufacturing industry (-). Japan, Taiwan and Europe in advancing the manufacturing industry revolution begins with the agricultural sector.

Reasons must be strong agricultural sector in the industrialization process :
a.       Strong agricultural sector, food assured, no hunger, political and social conditions stable.
b.      Angle Demand, a strong agricultural sector, real income per capita rises, the demand by farmers to product manufacturing rose industry that means developing and manufacturing industrial output becomes the input agriculture.
c.       Angle offer, demands for agricultural products as raw materials by manufacturing industry.
d.      Excess output of the agricultural sector is used as an investment the manufacturing industry such as small industries in rural areas.
The reality in Indonesia of dam agriculture production linkages manufacturing industry is very weak, and both sectors are highly dependent on imported goods.
