STRUKTUR PRODUKSI DAN POLA KONSUMSI PADA BUDIDAYA JAGUNG DAN KEDELAI: ANALISIS INPUT-OUTPUT

Employing the Indonesian input-output tables both as data sources and as method of analysis, this paper discusses production structure, consumption pattern and the role of maize and soybean in the Indonesian economy. The production structure is discussed by showing the structure of input in producing these commodities; the consumption pattern is indicated by the pattern of output distribution; while the role of these commodities in the national economy is indicated by input-output multipliers. Finally, concluding remarks are provided at the end of the paper.

THE IMPACT OF TECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESS ON INDONESIA’S GLOBAL COMPETITIVENESS: A TIME SERIES PATH ANALYSIS

This paper analysis direct and indirect impacts of technological progress on Indonesia’s global
competitiveness, with economic growth and human development as moderator variables. Time
series data on technological progress, economic growth, human development and global
competitiveness of Indonesia were collected many sources and employed in a path analysis
model. The results showed that technological progress had a negative and significant direct
impact on the global competitiveness. Technological progress had also negative and significant
direct impact on human development. Furthermore, technological progress had a positive and
significant direct impact on economic growth, and economic growth had positive impact on
human development and negative impact on global competitiveness. Indirectly, the impacts of
technological progress on global competitiveness varied depend on the path. At P43-P31, indirect
impact through human development, the impact was negative and significant. At P43-P32-P21,
indirect impact through human development and economic growth, the impact was positive and
significant. Finally, at P42-P21, indirect impact through economic growth, the impact was
negative and significant. These findings confirm other research by Author using cross-nations
data.

KANDUNGAN IMPOR PRODUK-PRODUK PERTANIAN, PETERNAKAN, KEHUTANAN DAN PERIKANAN

employing input-output model, this paper provides and discusses import components of agricultural, animal husbandry, forestry and fishery sectors in the Indonesian economy. Using the model, it is possible to trace the initial, direct, indirect and consumption induced requirements of imports of these sectors. One can then examine which. sectors have the highest total import components, not just initial or direct import requirements. The result of analysis shows that import components of these sectors are generally low. Only 6 among 26 sectors observed in this study are classified as those that have high import components. It is interesting to note that 3 of those 6 sectors have low initial requirements of import.
