Trade and Food Security Implications from the Indonesian Agriculture Experience by Nicholas Rada Pdf
This report evaluates the impact of Indonesia¿s transition from a food-first focus to an export-oriented development strategy on its agricultural production, productivity growth, consumer food demand, and lifestyle. Shifting production and consumption patterns have led to improving agricultural trade patterns and food security, which in turn have contributed to increased export opportunities for U.S. agricultural suppliers.

Trade and Food Security Implications from the Indonesian Agricultural Experience by Anonim Pdf
As the Indonesian Government transitioned from a food (rice) self-sufficiency focus to an industrial export-oriented development strategy in the mid-1980s, the agricultural sector responded by diversifying production to include cash crops. Sharp currency devaluation and trade liberalization following the Asian financial crisis in 1997 provided incentives for Indonesian agricultural producers to assert their comparative advantage in tropical perennial crops. This report evaluates the ensuing impact on Indonesia's agricultural productivity growth and consumer food demand and lifestyle. Shifting agricultural production and consumption patterns have led to improving agricultural trade patterns and food security. These developments have contributed to increased export opportunities for U.S. agricultural suppliers.
Modernizing Indonesia’s Agriculture by Aditya Alta,Adithya Prabowo,Ahmad Heri Firdaus,Arumdriya Murwani,Azizah Nazzala Fauzi,Bustanul Arifin,Donny Pasaribu,Ely Nurhayati,Felippa Amanta,Ibnu Budiman,Indra Setiawan,Iqbal Dawam Wibisono,Rachma Auliya,Risti Permani,Samuel Pablo Pareira,Maria Monica Wihardja,Muhammad Pudjianto,Mukhammad Faisol Amir Pdf
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.

International Trade and Food Security by Michael Ewing-Chow,Melanie Vilarasau Slade Pdf
Food security is one of the greatest challenges of our time. The food price crisis of 2008 exposed the vulnerabilities of the global food system. Governments across Asia acerbated the crisis by imposing export restrictions based on a policy of self-sufficiency. This book assesses whether self-sufficiency is an adequate response to the food security challenges we face. Pricing volatility drives isolationism at a time when climate change and increasingly uncertain weather patterns make it difficult for any single nation to guarantee adequate food production for itself. Through a collection of commissioned studies which draw upon the experience of leading experts and scholars in trade, investment, law, economics, and food policy, this book analyses the impact of this trend on the most essential crop in the Asian region - rice. It suggests that food security policy should be reconceptualised: from the national to the regional and even the global level. It also provides its own proposals as to how this new paradigm of collective food security should be understood and developed. The book calls for a new conversation in the region, acknowledging that the challenges we face are global and the solutions must be found in collective action. This state-of-the-art study will appeal to lawyers, economists and political scientists, as well as food security specialists by providing expert analyses and enlightening solutions for the future.
Global Agriculture by Marvin R. Robertson,Jeffery I. Schmidt Pdf
This book explores the developments, issues and research outlook of global agriculture. Topics discussed include the trade and food security implications from the Indonesian agricultural experience; the remarkable growth in China's apple juice concentrate exports since the 1990s; the U.S. and Mexican dry bean sectors; and Peru as an emerging exporter of fruits and vegetables.
Following recent price spikes, food policy will continue to be of crucial concern to developing countries for the foreseeable future. Governments are trying to manage their food issues, but would need critical economic policy analysis to do so appropriately. The aim of this invaluable book is to present economy-wide but detailed information that will facilitate state-of-the-art economic agricultural policy analysis in the light of future threats, and stimulate the formation of better policies for Indonesia's, Vietnam's as well as other countries' longer-term visions of food security, productivity and social welfare. The scope of the book is comprehensive, analysing a range of key food security issues (self-sufficiency, stocks and industry development), policies and futures, with unified presentation of several key and captivating commodity case-studies (rice, livestock and dairy). This is achieved through state-of-the-art evidence-based economic policy analysis, drawing at times on a mix of Asian countries' relevant experiences and hence having broader relevance. Contents: Crucial Food Security Analysis in Brief (Ray Trewin)Growth in Emerging Economies and Food Security by 2030 (Kym Anderson and Anna Strutt) Regional Rice Stocks, Prices, Trade and Food Security: Implications for ASEAN (Nur Rakhman Setyoko, Ray Trewin and David Vanzetti)Indonesian Livestock Policy: Lessons for Self-Sufficiency (Risti Permani, Nur Rakhman Setyoko, Ray Trewin and David Vanzetti)Drink More Milk: Policies Supporting the Indonesian Dairy Industry (David Vanzetti, Rina Oktaviani and Nur Rakhman Setyoko) Rice Production and Food Security in ASEAN: Time for a Change (David Vanzetti and Dung Pham) Safe Food Trade, and the Roles of Governments and Markets: The Case of Vietnam Pork Trade (Ray Trewin, David Vanzetti and Tran Cong Thang) Agricultural Labour Productivity and Poverty: An Indonesian Case-Study (Joe Dewbre) Policy Design and Industry Development Plans: Dairy Industry Experiences in Asia and Australia (David Harris) Readership: Students, researchers and the general public who are interested to understand the economic agricultural policy in Asian countries. Key Features: The book differs from many competing titles in that it considers the broad definition of food security in contrast to most Asian countries' narrow self-sufficiency ones and applies state-of-the art quantitative methods in the policy analysis. The book undertakes a distinctive treatment of certain topics through application of evidence-based policy analysis that has not been comprehensively applied to Asian agricultural policies, or in other countries as well. The book contains much novel material developed in various institutions during the life of the underlying research project.

Indonesia in a Reforming World Economy by Kym Anderson,Erwidodo,Randy Stringer Pdf
In the mid-1990s a joint research project was established between CASER (Bogor), CIES (Adelaide), CSIS ( Jakarta) and RSPAS (at ANU, Canberra) to examine interactions between agriculture, trade and the environment in Indonesia. Funded by the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR Project No. 9449), the specific objective of the project was to assess the production, consumption, trade, income distributional, regional, environmental, and welfare eff ects in Indonesia of structural and policy changes at home and abroad. Particular attention was to be paid to those structural and policy changes that could aff ect Indonesia's agricultural sector over the next 5-10 years. The implications of national and global economic growth, of regional and multilateral trade liberalisation initiatives, and of Indonesia's ongoing unilateral policy reforms were the initial focus of the study. However, with the onslaught of the financial crisis that began in the latter part of 1997, the project leaders added that issue to the research agenda.

Small Farmers for Global Food Security by Thomas Reuter,Graeme MacRae Pdf
Food systems in Indonesia and worldwide have experienced major transformations in the wake of agricultural modernisation. Once intact eco-systems have declined dramatically, along with human diets, long term food security and social cohesion. Using long-term ethnographic research, we documented this loss of traditional food systems in Java, Bali, East Timor and India, but also a recent revival and reinvention of sustainable production methods and community-based distribution systems. A growing movement of small farmers now reject the dominant paradigm of aggressive capitalist development, and are re-creating food systems based on moral ecology – a new concept we introduce to characterise food systems that regenerate the natural environment and serve the common good, rather than maximise profit. Small farmers like these already feed two thirds of humanity using only a third of agricultural land. With proper support, we argue, they could feed the entire world, using sustainable and socially responsible approaches to eradicate world hunger.
The WTO and Food Security by Sachin Kumar Sharma Pdf
This book examines the public stockholding policies of selected developing countries from the perspective of WTO rules and assesses whether the provisions of the Agreement on Agriculture (AoA) could hamper these countries’ efforts to address the challenges of food security. Further, it highlights the need to amend the provisions of the AoA to make WTO rules just and fair for the millions of people suffering from hunger and malnutrition in developing countries. This book highlights that 12 countries namely China, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Jordan, Kenya, Morocco, Pakistan, Tunisia, Turkey, Zambia and Zimbabwe are facing or will face problems in implementing the food security policies due to the provisions under AoA. These provisions need to be amended for permitting developing countries to address hunger and undernourishment. Progress in WTO negotiations on public stockholding for food security purposes are also discussed and analysed. The findings of this study greatly benefit trade negotiators, policymakers, civil society, farmers groups, researchers, students and academics interested in issues related to the WTO, agriculture and food security.
