SUMMARY
JUNISKA MURIA. Competitiveness Analysis of Corn Cultivication based on Mechanization and Conventional. Supervised by AMZUL RIFIN dan ROKHANI HASBULLAH.
Productivity corn in Indonesia still unable to complied the domestic market. To improve productivity corn can be done by applying mechanization technology in the cultivation process. This study attempts to: 1 ) know the state of competitiveness cultivation corn conducted in mechanization and conventionally, 2 ) know influence sensitivity to competitiveness cultivation corn conducted in mechanization and conventionally, 3) give recomendation for PT XYZ and farmers to increase the competitiveness of whether mechanization corn and conventional. The study is done in two locations, PT XYZ located in Berau district for cultivation mechanically and Demak district for cultivation conventionally. The method of analysis to know competitiveness of corn cultivating based on mechanization and conventionally used Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM )
The results showed DRCR value of mechanization less than 0,545, which means it has comparative advantage and PCR value is 0,495, meaning it has a competitive advantage amongst others in the same industry. While DRCR value of cultivating konvensionally is 1,02 which means it has not comparative advantage without government policy. And PCR value of konvensional cultivication is 0,74 which means it has competitive advantage. Output policy application makes Nominal Protection Coefficient of Output (NPCO) value of mechanization is 1.19 and 1.12 for corn cultivation konvensional. This shows that the government influence makes domestik market price is above than world prices. Nominal Protection Coefficient on Input (NPCI) value of corn mechanization is 1.08 while the konvensionally is 0.64.
This shows the protection of the government for konvensionally cultivication with the implementation of subsidies and taxes. EPC value indicates the influences of government policies which is more protective or hinder domestik production. Both of mechanization and konvensional cultivication haveEffective Protection Coefficient (EPC) value more than one, that means the policy implemented by the government has been running effectively. Another indicator is the value of Subsidiy Ratio to Producers (SRP). SRP value for mechanization is 0,12 and 0,27 for konvensional cultivication. SRP value of konvensional cultivication is higher than mechanization, it’s because subsidies implementation for konvensional cultivication.
PAM used dynamic price, so its need to conduct sensititivty analysis based to reduce the weakness of PAM. Sensitivity analysis performed with price changes simulation. Sensitivity analysis results shows that price changes simulation proved sensitive and affects the competitiveness of mechanizations and conventional cultivicating.
