crucial issues. The conducted research will try to achieve some research objectives
as follows: Analyzing soybean farmer income in the Blitar District at the different
cropping system; Obtaining analysis on comparative advantage and competitiveness
of soybean by different cropping system; analyzing influences of social price
changes to farmers income due to public investment; and analyzing government
policy impact on farmers income due to market/actual price development. The
research uses Policy Analysis Matrix to obtain competitiveness rate, efficiency and
impact of government policy on soybean production under multi-cropping system
and different ecological zones in the Blitar district. | en_US |
