WorldBank(2007)TomatoValueChainWestJavaFarmsJakartaRetail-Annex5.pdf

This value chain analysis is an Annex of a larger report examining supermarket development in Indonesia. The analysis encompasses production in West Java through to retailers in Jakarta and reports on five main market chains: farmer-specialised wholesaler-supermarket; farmer-farmer group-specialised wholesaler-supermarket; farmer-traditional wholesaler-traditional wholesale market-traditional retailer; farmer-traditional wholesaler-specialised wholesaler-supermarket; and farmer-collector-traditional wholesaler-traditional wholesale market-traditional retailer. The role and function of each value chain participant is outlined. The report also contains a comparison of the five value chains in terms of the value added with the supply chains to supermarkets adding the most value (35-57%). The value chain analysis report also includes a summary of the econometric analysis (undertaken in another section of the larger report) comparing the share of the consumer price captured by farmers. The farmer group captured the highest share of consumer price (30%).

IFC SADI Agri sectors: value chain analysis for the NTB shallot industry

sudo — Mon, 09 Feb 2015 09:35:52 +0000

NimmoBell(2007)ValueChainAnalysisNTBShallotIndustry_IFC_SADI.pdf

This report presents a sector profile and value chain analysis of the shallot industry in West Nusa Tenggara, identifying potential areas for SADI program support. The research shows that shallots are a profitable but potentially high risk niche crop in some parts of the province, particularly Bima. Apart from assisting with the problems of financing the relatively high value of inputs, such as seed, fertiliser, water, weed and pest control, the SADI program could seek to research seed varieties and the most economical way to produce propagation materials (bulbs) locally, potentially saving significantly on input costs and improving yields and bulb quality. The analysis also shows that there is potential to better link production with markets elsewhere in Indonesia. However, further research is required to explore possible linkages between end users or processors (in Java, Kalimantan and Makassar) and cooperative groups, which could be developed to improve marketing, buying and financial service activities.

Farm demand for quality potato seed in Indonesia

sudo — Mon, 09 Feb 2015 09:35:52 +0000

FuglieEtAl(2006) FarmDemandQualityPotatoSeedIndonesia.pdf

One of the major constraints facing crop production in developing countries is a lack of low-cost, quality seed. In this paper, Fuglie et al. present a model of the market for seed, in which clean seed is treated as a capital good providing benefits over several seasons. To determine the farm demand for clean seed, they then apply this model to potato seed in Indonesia. The research uses data gathered from a survey of 182 potato farmers in the major potato growing areas of the country. Findings show that Indonesian potato farmers are well aware of the value of quality seed in potato production, but the high cost (three to four times the price of seed purchased through the informal system) remains a major constraint. Nevertheless, marginal returns to disease-free seed appear to significantly exceed marginal costs, indicating that improving supply of quality seed will contribute strongly to productivity growth in potato. The authors discuss several policy options to encourage supply and utilization of quality potato seed, asserting that the potato seed system cannot be isolated from support for potato breeding and crop improvement generally.

Analysis of price volatility in the Indonesia fresh chili market.

sudo — Mon, 09 Feb 2015 09:35:52 +0000

Webb-Kosasih(2011)AnalysisPriceVolatilityIndoFreshChiliMarket.pdf

The extreme volatility of Indonesian chili prices has been a focus of government and public concern. This paper examines whether monthly chili prices over a 10-year period (2000 to 2009) for five cities on Java Island can be estimated with sufficient accuracy to make it economically feasible to build a short term storage activity into the chili marketing system. The findings show that in all locations prices respond to the previous month's price or relative prices. For Jakarta and Bandung, prices also respond to chili production levels in other key production areas, as well as seasonal fluctuations for Ramadan and October. Results also show that traders implementing a one-month cold storage strategy using forecasted prices could generate annual returns of 25 per cent over the cost of storage. The authors conclude that if the use of cold storage was more widespread, they would expect to see less volatile price movements in the fresh chili market. This would lead to lower risk premiums for traders and other middlemen and ultimately narrower farm-retail price spreads and a more efficient market for chilies. However, further research is needed to explore why cold storage is not being used more widely.

Do chili traders make price volatility worse? A qualitative analysis of East Java trading practices

sudo — Mon, 09 Feb 2015 09:35:52 +0000

WebbEtAl(2012)ChilliTradersPriceVolatilityQualitativeAnalysisEJavaTradingPractices.pdf

In this paper, Webb et al. examine the trading practices of market intermediaries in the Indonesian chili market and how they affect the transmission of chili market information through their effect on prices. The research involves a series of structured interviews with chili traders and wholesalers to investigate five potential impediments to an efficient market: market structure impediments to competition; lack of scale economies; market intermediary value-added functions; post-harvest losses; and price risk premiums. This was followed by an analysis of vertical price transmission using monthly data for farm, wholesale and retail prices in the Kediri district of East Java. Results show a competitive market environment, only small post-harvest losses, and no stockholding at any level of the marketing chain. They also reveal that price margins in East Java are positively and statistically related to farm price levels. The authors propose two policy options to address the price volatility—imports of fresh chillies from other countries or government subsidized investment in cold storage facilities to reduce the amplitude of price fluctuations and give farmers more time to respond to tight market conditions.

Farmer-trader relationships in the Indonesian chilli markets: the role of relationship quality in modern and traditional supply chains

sudo — Mon, 09 Feb 2015 09:35:52 +0000

Sahara(2011)FarmerTraderRelationshipsIndoChilliMarketsModernTraditionalSupplyChains_AdelaideUni.pdf

In Indonesia, chillies are a priority crop commonly produced by smallholders and, like many other cash crops, several farmer-trader issues are emerging in chilli supply chains. Current literature suggests that improving relationship quality among food chain actors enhances efficiency. This paper contributes to this literature by examining chilli farmer's perceptions of relationship quality with their buyers, using trust, satisfaction and commitment as variables. The authors use data from a survey of 602 chilli farmers selling to the traditional market channel or supermarket channel in West Java. Chilli farmers were categorized into four clusters, with differing perceptions on relationship quality, price satisfaction and chilli production characteristics. The differences across clusters suggest that targeted strategies are required to optimize farmer-trader relationships. The main limitation of the article is that the study was restricted to farmers perspectives only, thus the authors indicate that further research needs to be undertaken that measures buyers perspectives in order to develop a more in-depth understanding of farmer-buyer relationships in chilli supply chains.

Chilli (Capsicum spp.) Food Chain Analysis: Setting Research Priorities in Asia -Indonesia

sudo — Mon, 09 Feb 2015 09:35:52 +0000

MustafaEtAl(2006)IndonesiaChiliFoodChainAnalysisIndoSettingResearchPriorities_AVRDC.pdf

This study provides a comprehensive overview of the production practices, consumption habits, consumer preferences and distribution of chilli in Indonesia. Data was collected via secondary sources as well as interviews with key food chain stakeholders, including 306 chilli and non-chilli farmers from West Java, Central Java and East Java, as well as 16 market agents, 6 chili processors, and 289 chilli and non-chilli farmer housewives and 62 urban housewives. Key constraints identified by farmers were insect and pest losses (up to 63 per cent), difficulties in marketing and low yield potential. Analytical assessment of the different food chain levels highlighted several opportunities for improving chilli production and benefits for small farmers. Chilli production and income could be improved through the development of improved varieties for pest resistance, yield potential and incorporation of consumers' preferred traits (freshness, more seeds, attractive colour, pungency). Judicious use of inputs (fertilisers and pesticides) would contribute significantly to reduced production costs. Furthermore, price and negotiating power could be improved through collaborative marketing, farm level chilli processing and development of direct market links and information networks.

Multi-layer distribution system of Indonesian fruit-vegetable sector: current challenges and future perspectives

sudo — Mon, 09 Feb 2015 09:35:52 +0000

SovianaPuspa(2012)MultiLayerDistributionSystemIndoFruitVegSector.pdf

The increasing role of modern retail markets and supermarkets provides an opportunity for the Indonesian fruit and vegetable sector if supply chain issues can be resolved. This study discusses the multi-layer distribution system as it applies to the Indonesian fruit and vegetable sector and proposes more effective and efficient options. The paper outlines the advantages and weaknesses of multi-layer distribution channels. Despite being advantageous in marketing small farmers' products and providing employment opportunities as intermediaries there are various disadvantages. The long distribution channel increases risk of quality reduction and costs to maintain quality, higher transaction costs, inadequate technical requirements and limited information flow and asymmetry. Alternative systems proposed by the author include contract farming and direct collaboration with modern-supply-chain players; repositioning of existing cooperative networks to be business focused and self-reliant; creating producer organisations to achieve associated benefits (stronger bargaining position, reduced transaction costs and lobbying capacity); integrating consumer-oriented policies in all supply channels so that Indonesia can produce consumer preferred products rather than turning to imports; and creating a favourable political situation through redesign of policies.

MenegayDarmono(2007)RapidAssessmentHorticultureVegSectorIndonesia_USAID_AMARTA.pdf

This report identifies intervention opportunities to strengthen the performance of the vegetable sub-sector in Eastern Indonesia. The research is based on field observations, interviews with value chain participants and consultation with other stakeholders in West Java, East Java, Central Java, Bali, South Sulawesi and North Sumatra. The report contains a summary of the vegetable sub-sector and an outline of private and public sector roles. Critical problems and constraints limiting the vegetable sub-sectors performance were summarised as: disorganised seed industry; excessive pesticide residues increasing production costs and threatening markets; neglect of wet markets including transport and handling, health and sanitation, food safety concerns and market waste; limited relationships between farmers and supermarket wholesalers; lack of awareness and access to market intelligence; reduction in suitable vegetable producing land; lack of marketing technology e.g. packaging; and globalisation resulting in reduced production of certain vegetables. The report suggests various interventions, among them seed industry development, improved farmer buyer contracts, a pesticide focused extension program, marketplace design, market development, packaging and waste management options. It also includes location specific considerations where necessary.
