Abstract
English
The value chain of the agricultural sector of developing countries, including Indonesia, is part of a global value-chain, especially for the value chain of plantation products that are traded globally (for example, coffee, cocoa, tea, and palm oil). Many researchers use a global value-chain perspective with a focus on evaluating the relationship between multinational companies (which are considered the main actors) and other actors (including producers and consumers) in international trade. However, the argument that developing countries need to have more control over global value-chains deserves attention. Therefore, this study aims to identify potential strategies for upgrading the value chain as a whole and in a more systematic manner; thereby strengthening its position and influence in global value-chains. The research objective is achieved by reviewing the literature specifically on the value chain, but also by expanding the review to literature on politics, economics and management. In addition, this research is also strengthened by the results of empirical research as 'cases' or 'examples' related to the proposed strategies. The results of the study indicate that upgrading the value chain is achieved through a combination of strategies, for example increasing product value added and improving chain governance. In addition, this study concludes that, in the era of the liberalized market, the role of the government should be more visible. The liberalized market does not always achieve an optimal equilibrium, and therefore the government must be able to correct it with relevant regulations and/or policies.
Bahasa Indonesia
Rantai nilai sektor pertanian negara berkembang, termasuk Indonesia, merupakan bagian dari rantai nilai global, terutama untuk rantai nilai produk perkebunan yang diperdagangkan secara global (misalnya kopi, kakao, teh, dan kelapa sawit). Banyak peneliti menggunakan perspektif rantai nilai global dengan fokus mengevaluasi hubungan antara perusahaan multinasional (yang dianggap sebagai aktor utama) dan aktor lain (termasuk produsen dan konsumen) dalam perdagangan internasional. Namun, argumen bahwa negara berkembang perlu memiliki kendali lebih besar atas rantai nilai global patut mendapat perhatian. Oleh karena itu, studi ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi strategi-strategi potensial untuk meningkatkan rantai nilai secara keseluruhan dan dengan cara yang lebih sistematis; sehingga memperkuat posisi dan pengaruhnya dalam rantai nilai global. Tujuan penelitian dicapai dengan meninjau literatur secara khusus tentang rantai nilai, tetapi juga dengan memperluas tinjauan ke literatur tentang politik, ekonomi dan manajemen. Selain itu, penelitian ini juga diperkuat dengan hasil penelitian empiris sebagai 'kasus' atau 'contoh' terkait dengan strategi yang diusulkan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan rantai nilai dicapai melalui kombinasi strategi, misalnya peningkatan nilai tambah produk dan perbaikan tata kelola rantai. Selain itu, penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa di era pasar liberalisasi, peran pemerintah seharusnya lebih terlihat. Pasar yang diliberalisasi tidak selalu mencapai ekuilibrium yang optimal, oleh karena itu pemerintah harus dapat memperbaikinya dengan peraturan dan/atau kebijakan yang relevan.
