Abstract

In spite of its stated objectives in agriculture towards self-sufficiency drive ever since becoming independent, Indonesia remains reliant to importing rice for domestic needs. As the international rice market becoming more volatile in recent years, it is imperative to fundamentally analyse the dynamics between trade policies and domestic market equilibrium. By employing a qualitative-descriptive approach, this study aims to provide a specific picture of the situation, phenomenon, or social symptoms of the role of government rice importation in domestic rice market activities, including price transmission and community production. We find that the increase of import in times of high prices are not necessarily reflected on consumer prices, instead they tend to depresses prices on farmers level. Price movements correlate more strongly with a surge in supply during harvest periods. Through the findings, we suggest reassessment of trade policies, farmer-oriented policies, logistical infrastructures, and support mechanisms for domestic production and import management.

Abstract

Participation in Global Value Chains (GVCs) has the potential to enhance firm productivity, a critical issue given that Indonesia’s manufacturing productivity still lags behind several Asian economies. However, the level of participation of Indonesian firms in global production networks remains relatively limited, and empirical studies that specifically examine the relationship between international trade participation and manufacturing firm productivity in Indonesia are still scarce. This study aims to analyze the impact of firm participation in GVCs, proxied by international trade activities, including exporting, importing, and simultaneous exporting and importing, on the productivity of manufacturing firms in Indonesia. The analysis employs cross-sectional data from the 2017 Industrial Survey (SI/IBS) conducted by BPS-Statistics Indonesia. The Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method is used to estimate firms’ Total Factor Productivity (TFP). The estimation results indicate that all forms of international trade participation are positively and significantly associated with firm productivity. The largest effect is observed among import-only firms. These findings suggest that firm engagement in international trade, particularly through the use of imported inputs, is linked to higher productivity in Indonesia’s manufacturing sector. Therefore, policies aimed at enhancing trade integration and improving access to imported inputs may serve as important channels for boosting manufacturing productivity.
