Abstract

Agriculture is one of the important contributor sectors to the implementation of sustainable economic growth, especially in East Java. Apart from absorbing a large portion of the workforce, agriculture is also a sector that drives other sectors such as trade, especially for food products. However, the increase in food prices is often a polemic in the community which is very detrimental to households. This study aims to analyze the function of household food consumption demand in East Java using the Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand System (QUAIDS) and Compensating Variation approaches to identify the impact of price changes on changes in household welfare in East Java, especially in farmer households. The data used in this study were obtained from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) in 2000, 2007, and 2014. The results showed that consumption of various food commodities in the form of staple foods, fruits and vegetables, sugar, oil, milk, meat will be greatly affected by changes in prices, expenditure/income, and household demographic characteristics. The results of price and expenditure elasticity vary between household groups. Based on the analysis of changes in welfare, due to the increase in food prices, in general, households in East Java will experience a decrease in welfare. However, the decline for poor rural households and farming households is lower than for urban poor households and non-farmer households. The regional government of East Java province is expected to encourage and optimize the role of the agricultural sector to achieve sustainable household welfare in general and farmers in particular.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the spatial patterns and determining factors influencing the number of Micro and Small Industries (MSIs) in rural areas of East Java Province. Using 2024 PODES data from 3,225 rural villages, a spatial econometric approach is applied through Moran’s Index, Local Indicators of Spatial Association (LISA), as well as estimations of the Spatial Autoregressive (SAR) and Spatial Error Model (SEM). The results reveal significant positive spatial autocorrelation in the distribution of MSIs, with the identification of High-High clusters concentrated in several regencies such as Pamekasan, Sumenep, and Bojonegoro. Regression model estimations indicate that the number of village markets, the presence of public transportation, cooperatives, internet signal availability, access to microcredit, and social capital are positively associated with the number of MSIs. These findings underscore the importance of local infrastructure, digital access, economic institutions, and social networks in promoting rural microeconomic growth. The proposed policy implications include the development of MSI-based cluster areas, strengthening of connectivity infrastructure, and empowerment of village-level economic institutions with a spatial focus.
