Abstract

The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic creates both the demand and supply shocks problem that may affect the households’ food insecurity.  Among mechanisms, it ranges from the limited physical access to food due to social distancing to the drop in economic access to food due to (partial) lockdown. This study aims to lay out an early warning assessment of the food security situation in Indonesia amidst the Covid-19 outbreak. We use the cartogram analysis which visualize the geographical features throughout the Indonesia archipelago, both in the small and big island setting. The analysis involves the use of both the simple score and latent measurement-based scale of the Rasch model for the food insecurity based on the Susenas data from 2017-2019. The finding reveals that there existed a variation of the household proportion that suffers from severe food insecurity across the Indonesia archipelago. The more eastern the island, the worse the measure is. Papua and Maluku suffer more from such condition compared to the other big islands.  As the government has applied any containment measures, the surge in Covid-19 cases may potentially worsen both the existing households under severe food insecurity and even create new households under such conditions.

Abstract

Empirical analysis on the links between geography and energy access in archipelago setting is still limited. In particular, the territorial identification of energy poverty in Indonesia is still missing. Our study maps geographical location and estimates factors that determines the probability of being energy poor household in relation to electricity. We used the OLS (Ordinary Least Square) estimation and utilized the socioeconomic survey (Susenas) combined with data on terrain elevation, presence of geographic features such as mountainside, topography characteristics, ocean and forest obtained from the village census (PODES). The results show that energy poverty in Eastern part of Indonesia is larger than in the Western. In Eastern Indonesia, we estimate that 13.5% of the total households are energy poor compared to the Western which only 7.21%. Households located in the forest area was the dominant factor to influence prevalence of energy poverty among geographic constraints, with magnitude of influence at 22-23 percentage point to non-forest residents. Secondly, the presence of steep-sloped terrain is the next meaningful geographical constraint with contribution effect to energy poverty prevalence at around 18 percentage point. The result highlighted priority of locations in which resource and policy to reduce energy deprivation need to be allocated.
