Abstract

This research was motivated by a decline in Indonesia's export rating due to several problems such as limited capital and technology, a decrease in plantation area, the amount of coffee production, and the productivity of coffee plants, as well as the low quality of coffee produced had an impact on international trade in Indonesian coffee.  This study aims to 1) analyze the condition of coffee agribusiness in Indonesia, 2) analyze the competitiveness of Indonesian coffee both comparatively and competitively, and 3) analyze and formulate the right strategy to improve the competitiveness of Indonesian coffee. The data used is secondary data from 2015-2019.The results of the descriptive analysis showed that the marketing subsystem found that the coffee business chain in Indonesia has not been effective because the marketing flow at the farmer level is still long and causes large price margins. On the other hand, financial institutions as support have also not supported coffee agribusiness activities, especially in providing financing support to farmers. Based on the results of the comparative competitiveness analysis of Indonesian coffee in the international market using the RCA method, it produces an average value of 5.76 which shows that Indonesia has comparative competitiveness. However, when compared to the average RCA value of other coffee exporter countries, Indonesia is the lowest. This shows that Indonesia is still less competitive. Based on the analysis using the Porter Diamond System, shows that Indonesian coffee has competitiveness competitively because four of the six main pairs of components have mutually supportive links. Based on the SWOT matrix, the focus of the S–O strategy (using the main force to seize the opportunities at hand) obtained five strategies to increase competitiveness.

Abstract

             This research is backgrounded by the need for environmentally friendly agricultural management, namely by implementing organic agriculture. The International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM) has developed a way of group certification through the implementation of the Internal Control System (ICS) to address the issue of the cost of farmer group-scale certification. The Simpatico Gapoktan located in Thetically Regency is a Gapoktan that has implemented ICS since 2008. However, behind the success of the certification, some farmer groups did not pass the certification, so the number of members decreased from year to year. The unsuccessfulness of farmer groups in certification needs to be analyzed, one of which is by analyzing the performance of farmers in the application of ICS. This study aims to analyze the expectations and performance of Simpatik Gapoktan members in the application of ICS to organic rice cultivation systems and risk control management, as well as the application of organic internal standards, ICS documentation, and training. The results of this study showed that the level of suitability in the application of the organic rice cultivation system obtained an overall average statement of 87.41%. This is not appropriate because the performance achievements of farmers have not met expectations.  The level of conformity between the expectations and performance of farmers members of the Simpatik Gapoktan in the implementation of risk control management with a total conformity level VI value of 84.58% is considered to have not met the expectations of farmers. The level of conformity between farmers' expectations and performance in the implementation of organic internal standards with a conformity level of 74.24% has not met farmers' expectations. For ICS documentation, the total conformity level value of 73.6% has not met the expectations of farmers, and training with a conformity level value of 84.25% has also not met the expectations of farmers.
