Indonesia is one of the world's tea exporters, but the decline in the volume and value of its exports to date continues to occur. This study aims to 1) analyze the production trend and export volume of Indonesian tea. 2) analyze Indonesian tea competitiveness in the International market compared to other exporter countries (China, India, Kenya, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam). 3) analyze the determining factors of Indonesia's tea export volume to 7 major destination countries (Malaysia, Russia, Pakistan, USA, Germany, Poland, and Australia). The analysis methods used are simple linear regression, Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), Trade Specialization Ratio (TSR), and data panel regression. The results showed that the production and volume of Indonesian tea export will decrease every year. Indonesian tea has a very strong comparative competitiveness, but still below India, Kenya, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam. Indonesia tends to be an exporter of tea to the international market at the stage of export expansion. Factors determining the volume of Indonesian export are Indonesian tea production, the population of importer countries, real GDP per capita of importer countries, level of trade openness of importer countries, and importer countries' inflation rate.
Tea is a popular export commodity from Indonesia. It has been exported worldwide, especially to Southeast Asia countries. However, the popularity of the tea export market attracts export competitors, which in turn served a strenuous chance to win in the market. The objective of the study was to analyze the competitiveness and factors that affected the exported Indonesian tea in Southeast Asia Market. The data analysis method applied was the Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), Trade Specialization Ratio (TSR), and data panel regression (Fixed-Effect Model). Findings showed that exported Indonesian tea had a strong level of comparative competitiveness. Analysis revealed that Indonesia tended to be a tea exporter on the export expansion stage. The real GDP of the countries of destination, exported tea price, the population of the countries of destination, and RCA index had delivered significant influence for the exported volume of Indonesian tea to the Southeast Asia countries.
