Abstract

This study analyzes the economic potential and commodity production in Polongbangkeng Selatan District, Takalar Regency, South Sulawesi. The area covers 88.07 km² with low to moderate topography, has two main soil types (inceptisol and ultisol), and annual rainfall of 2,500–3,000 mm. The population growth rate of 1.49% per year with the majority of the population in the productive age (66%), supports the potential for economic development. The analysis results indicate that superior commodities such as rice, corn, and cassava, while commodities such as soybeans and mung beans have less potential. Based on Shift Share and Klassen Typology analysis, rice shows progressive growth and is a leading sector, while corn and cassava are included in the mainstay and prospective sectors. The agricultural sector dominates the regional economic contribution, followed by rattan handicrafts which show development potential with a profit margin of 28.57%. Development strategies include focusing on increasing the productivity of superior commodities, product diversification, digital-based marketing, and integration aspects that want to be implemented in production practices. The results of this study provide a strategic basis for optimizing the region's economic potential.

Abstract

Poverty remains one of the structural problems still faced by Indonesia, particularly in East Nusa Tenggara Province (NTT), where the poverty rate consistently exceeds the national average. This study aims to analyze the influence of socioeconomic factors on poverty levels in NTT during the 2017–2023 period. This study employs Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), Human Development Index (HDI), and Open Unemployment Rate (OUR) as the independent variables, while the dependent variable is the proportion of the population living in poverty. The method employed is panel data regression using fixed effect and random effect models, selected based on the results of the Chow test, Hausman test, and Lagrange Multiplier test to obtain the best estimation model. The findings show that HDI and GRDP per capita have a negative and significant effect on poverty levels, while the Open Unemployment Rate has a positive but not statistically significant effect. These findings highlight the importance of improving human capital and promoting inclusive job creation in poverty reduction efforts in NTT. This study is expected to provide empirical contributions for local governments in formulating more effective, contextual, and data-driven socioeconomic development policies.

Abstract

The city of Semarang faces significant challenges, with the open unemployment rate reaching 5.99 percent in 2023. This situation arises from an imbalance between the available workforce and job opportunities, disparities between the minimum wage and the living wage, and inflation dynamics that impact the public's purchasing power. This study aims to empirically examine the causal relationship between the open unemployment rate (OUR), the city’s minimum wage (MW), and inflation (measured through the general consumer price index, or CPI) in Semarang. The study utilizes annual time series data on OUR, MW, and inflation spanning from 1993 to 2023, sourced from the BPS Statistics Indonesia. The analysis employed the Granger causality test and the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) to assess the long-term relationships among the variables. Additionally, the Impulse Response Function (IRF) and Variance Decomposition (VD) were used to evaluate the impact of shocks throughout the analysis period.  The findings reveal: 1) a unidirectional causal relationship from unemployment to inflation; 2) a unidirectional causal relationship from UMK to inflation; and 3) a bidirectional causal relationship between UMK and unemployment.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of Economic Growth, Population, Human Development Index (HDI), and Income Inequality on Poverty Levels in Polewali Mandar Regency during the period 2014–2023. The results of the study indicate that Economic Growth has a statistically significant negative effect on poverty, indicating that improving economic performance can significantly reduce poverty levels. The Population variable shows a positive but not statistically significant relationship, meaning that demographic growth does not have a direct impact on poverty. The HDI shows a significant positive association, reflecting the complex relationship between human development and poverty incidence. In contrast, Income Inequality shows a negative correlation with poverty, a result that contradicts conventional economic theory. These findings emphasize the need for a more integrated and comprehensive strategy in poverty alleviation efforts. Therefore, it is recommended that the Polewali Mandar Regency Government formulate a development strategy that focuses on improving the quality of human resources, promoting equitable income distribution, and developing inclusive and sustainable economic growth, to address poverty more effectively.
