Indonesia is the largest archipelagic country in the world and has various marine resources. Fishery development is one of the priorities of East Java Province Government and the selection of the superior fishing commodities becomes important to fishery growth. The objective of this research is to select the superior fishing commodities in Southcoast of East Java Province, including eight Districts: Pacitan, Trenggalek, Tulungagung, Blitar, Malang, Lumajang, Jember, and Banyuwangi. Both Location Quotient models in quantity and value are developed and the fishing data during 2013-2017 are adopted in the study. As results, the superior fishing commodities by quantity, by value, and by both quantity and value are selected for the whole Southcoast of East Java Province and eight districts respectively. The result shows that the most fishing commodities quantities of production are Scads, Fringe scale sardinella, Short bodied mackerel, Indian oil sardinella, Skipjack tuna, Anchovies, Big eyes, Kawa kawa, Frigate tuna, and Hairtail. The biggest production is scad. The most valuable fishing commodity in Southcoast of East Java Province is hairtail with 154,324.8 million rupiah, while Tuna and Skipjack generate value amount 484,652.43 million Rupiah each year. Finally, policy implications and strategies are proposed for the superior fishing commodities in Southcoast of East Java Province.
Through the dataset from APO (Asian Productivity Organization) comprising 22 countries in Asia from 1980 to 2015, this study is to investigate the growth pattern, decomposition, and determinants of structural transformation in Asia. A decomposition method measuring within-effect, between-static-effect, and between-dynamic-effect was adopted to explain the structural change within sectors of agriculture, industry, and services. The results show that the agriculture sector of all countries in Asia declines slowly. The agriculture sector is no longer the largest contributor to GDP in all Asian countries even though it still has the largest labor in Asian developing countries. Workers moving from the agriculture sector to the services sector as the productivity of the service sector is higher than agriculture. The structural changes positively contribute to productivity growth in Asia as a result of the positive static reallocation effects and negative dynamic reallocation effects. Overall, the structural changes contribute to a large part of labor productivity growth. The important determinants of structural transformation are the employment share in agriculture and trade. Final, the policy implication was proposed for structural changes.
Regional development is an important aspect in improving the regional economy, and its relationship with the national economy. East Java Province is one of the regions with the most potential agricultural sector and is the highest national granary area in Indonesia. Maximizing the potential of the resources owned by East Java will accelerate the development process and increase the regional and national economy. For the economic growth,this study aims to examine the crops performance to estimate the pattern of regional economic growth in East Java. The time series data of East Java Central Bureau of Statistics from2008 to 2017 are adopted. The location quotient analysis and shift-share analysis with three indicators, namely regional economic growth, proportional shift growth, and differential shift, are used.The results showed that crops such as corn, green beans, peanuts, soybeans, rice, sweet potatoes, and cassava in 29 districts and 9 cities of East Java have crucial performance and economic growth patterns. As the results, to consider and identify priority policy plans to accelerate regional economic development and growth are suggested.
