This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With both achievements and persistent challenges over the last few decades, ensuring food security remains a priority for policymakers and development efforts in Indonesia. Setting aside some backsliding resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic, Indonesia’s poverty reduction journey has come a long way since the Asian financial crisis to less than 10% by 2019. Likewise, meaningful progress has been seen in daily calorie consumption and a declining stunting rate. But despite these gains, many challenges are evident. On the production side, agriculture struggles to promote productivity, community livelihood, and sustainability—a challenge made more pronounced by increased extreme weather events, climate change, and emissions . Meanwhile, on the consumption side, not everyone enjoys access to food and nutrition security equally. Modernizing agriculture is seen as a potential response to challenges in agriculture. Increased investment in agricultural mechanization and digital technologies provides a critical avenue to transform the sector into a more inclusive, efficient, and sustainable system. With the expected increase in productivity and income—including for smallholder farmers—agricultural modernization will help Indonesia’s economy structurally transform and finally shift off-farm toward higher-paying, higher-productivity sectors outside of agriculture. The challenges facing Indonesia's food security and modernization efforts in agriculture set the broad context for this book. While solutions to food insecurity are complicated and involve many stakeholders, this book focuses on optimizing the private sector’s role in improving food security. The Center for Indonesian Policy Studies (CIPS) has gathered expertise on a range of topics related to improving Indonesian agriculture and food security and the private sector’s contribution. CIPS is an independent, non-profit, non-partisan think tank advocating for practical policy reforms informed by evidence-based policy research and analysis. CIPS presents this book as part of its commitment to empowering Indonesians to lead prosperous and peaceful lives by supporting open food trade and agriculture markets to ensure food security and sustainable livelihoods.

This book was released on 2019-10 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides analysis and policy recommendations on the investments needed in Indonesia's agriculture sector to boost food security and enhance economic development. Agriculture continues to play a vital role in Indonesia's economic development. The sector contributes significantly to the country's gross domestic product, provides jobs for nearly 30% of the workforce, and has the essential function of providing food security. The report assesses the country's agricultural investments and policies, and evaluates the economy-wide impacts of alternative agricultural scenarios. The results show that Indonesia can virtually end hunger by 2030 with an appropriate mix of investments in agricultural research and development, irrigation expansion and water use efficiency, and rural infrastructure. The report makes key policy recommendations to support government efforts to mobilize these investments, which will also contribute to the country's economic growth.

Download or read book Indonesia s agriculture sector performance during the COVID 19 pandemic Towards a resilient agrifood system written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2023-10-24 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on food security in Indonesia. Ensuring food production and availability is a major concern for policymakers. The Indonesian government has historically made various efforts in this regard, encouraging and providing facilitation to farmers as the main producers of food, such as through the supply of agricultural inputs. In responding to the pandemic, the Indonesian government designed several programmes to protect farmers as food producers. The government was already carrying out these programmes before COVID-19 broke out but it increased their number and frequency during the pandemic. This paper examines the situation for several agricultural commodities as a result of the travel restrictions implemented under COVID-19. These restrictions affected the flow of goods, including of agricultural inputs and outputs. In addition, the paper compares conditions before and during the pandemic, assessing this within the broader context of government actions to address the challenges posed by COVID-19. It employs descriptive analysis, trend analysis and comparative analysis. The paper ends with an analysis of the adequacy of food consumption and food security in Indonesia and of the Social Safety Net (Jaring Pengaman Sosial – JPS) programme. As a result, the agriculture sector in Indonesia has withstood the shocks of the COVID-19 pandemic and its early restrictions relatively well. This can be seen in the economic growth (year on year) of the Indonesian agriculture sector, which was consistently positive for eight quarters (from the first quarter of 2020 to the fourth quarter of 2021) while at the same time total GDP growth in 2020 was negative. Specifically, the performance and relative resilience of the agriculture sector during the pandemic can be observed on several indicators, such as production, productivity, prices and trade in a number of main commodities, described below. During the COVID-19 pandemic, for all six commodities studied, no major shocks were observed on several indicators, including production, productivity, prices and trade. There were also no major shocks to food resilience. Responsive policies and assured provision of inputs were very important in facing the threat of food stock uncertainty. Indonesia’s government implemented several social safety net programmes, which suppressed the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on food security. Policy recommendations for the government, to ensure the continued stability and resilience of agriculture and the food system.

This book was released on 2020-12-16 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the present state of agricultural value chain finance in Indonesia and suggests policies that could help expand its availability where formal financial services have been unable to meet value chain actors’ needs. We first consider the features of a policy environment needed for agricultural value chain finance to flourish. Key points related to the policy environment are: Allow interest rates for loans from the formal sector to be priced by the market; Support secure, inclusive payment systems and transaction frameworks; Develop a legal framework that supports both the use of movable collateral in loans and a warehouse receipts system; Develop a legal and/or regulatory framework that supports contract farming among smallholders; And allow for a more open, technology-driven financial architecture that facilitates market entry among nontraditional financial service providers.

Download or read book Government Policy and Agricultural Productivity in Indonesia written by Nicholas Rada and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We focus on the agricultural productivity implications of the complex of investment, price, and research policies the Indonesian government has employed since the end of the Green Revolution. In particular, we employ a new 1985-2005 provincial panel dataset together with a stochastic output distance frontier framework to examine how government policies have affected the nation's agricultural productivity, decomposing it into its technical progress and efficiency components. Government's primary contributions to technology growth have come through price and trade policies rather than public research. Most technology growth, however, appears to be due to informal technology diffusion.

Download or read book Modelling the impacts of policy interventions for food systems transformation in Indonesia written by Woolfrey, S. and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2024-03-26 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Government of Indonesia and FAO have recognized the need for thorough analysis and modelling of Indonesia’s food systems to support food systems transformation efforts in the country. This is needed to provide a better understanding of the governance context in food systems, including the political economy dynamics influencing performance, as well as to identify synergies and trade-offs across different policy goals and optimal policy mixes for achieving multiple policy objectives. In this regard, FAO facilitated a project to pilot an innovative approach to modelling for food systems transformation. This modelling approach was developed and implemented by a team of researchers from IFPRI, IIASA, IISD and Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel. It makes use of three different economic models to generate insights that can assist Indonesian policymakers in developing technically sound and politically feasible policy interventions for food systems transformation. This report provides context for food systems transformation in Indonesia and describes the overall modelling approach before synthesizing the results of the individual modelling activities and distilling these into the overall findings of the modelling. It concludes with implications from these findings for policymaking for food systems transformation in Indonesia and some suggestions for next steps. The results of this modelling and the insights drawn from these results are expected to support efforts to translate Indonesia’s commitments on food systems transformation into concrete policy interventions and to inform medium- and long-term development planning by the Indonesian Government.

Download or read book Agricultural Trade Law in the Republic of Indonesia written by Prisca Octavia Rumokoy and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Indonesia still struggles with the poverty that is prevalent in rural areas where most of the population depends on agriculture, the Indonesian government perceives the role of agricultural trade as one of the mechanisms to improve farmers' incomes. However, Indonesia's agricultural trade instruments are still deemed to be problematic. Despite the effort of the Indonesian government to support its farmers, its agricultural trade instruments are widely challenged by the international world and are often referred to as ineffective and even deemed illegal, and compliance with international trade law is expected. This study will examine Indonesia's agricultural trade laws and policies in connection with international law to discover what can be done by both the relevant international organizations and Indonesia to serve its interest but also overcome the global challenges. The methodologies that will be used in this study are documentary research and the qualitative method. Relevant laws, policies, regulations, and documents related to Indonesia's agricultural trade will be analyzed. Interviews will be conducted to obtain a comprehensive understanding of government officials and stakeholders' perspectives. The study will provide useful material that will allow Indonesian policymakers and stakeholders to develop a better understanding of the current conditions and challenges of agricultural trade law as well as which policies must be addressed. It will also serve as an alternative academic source for relevant international organizations to address concerns related to agricultural reform in light of a developing country's distinctive interests, which in this case is Indonesia.
