“…The non-land-based development was considered to improve during the coming years, due to high economic growth in Yogyakarta (impact score +1.8) (e.g., [16,28,35]). Nevertheless, it was mentioned that the increasing development of settlements in the most developed district of Yogyakarta (Sleman District) towards the Merapi volcano would bring a higher risk for possible drawbacks and urban devastations due to natural hazards.…”

“…Positive arguments referred to improved and intensified agricultural practices that may be reasonable if new techniques will be introduced [41]. With regard to infrastructure, developments were expected to be positive (impact score +1.5), and the main argument was that the government, due to Yogyakarta's rapid economic development, will increase investments into road and transportation projects [35]. Again, some stakeholders mentioned that natural hazards may cause serious damage to high-risk development sites, particularly in those which are close to the Merapi volcano.…”

This paper presents the results of a sustainability impact assessment (SIA) of policy induced land use changes in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The regional problems include rapid expansions of urban areas, due to high population pressure, and the conversion of paddy fields and forests into settlements. The objective of this study was to assess the impacts of two land use policies on social, economic, and environmental Land Use Functions (LUFs) in Yogyakarta. The following scenarios were developed for the SIA: a forest protection scenario (S1), a paddy field conservation scenario (S2), and a counterfactual (no policy) scenario of ‘Business As Usual’ (BAU). The Framework for Participatory Impact Assessment (FoPIA) was applied to conduct an expert-based impact assessment. For the specification of the regional sustainability context, a set of nine key LUFs and associated indicators were developed, including three social, three economic, and three environmental sustainability criteria. The resulting scenario impacts of the assessment differed considerably, with positive impacts of the S1 and S2 scenarios on seven of nine LUFs, and negative impacts of the BAU scenario on six LUFs. The perception of the FoPIA method by the regional stakeholders was positive. We conclude that this method contributes toward an enhanced regional understanding of policy effects and sustainability, particularly in data-poor environments

“…In Indonesia, diversification of rural economic activities received increasing attention after the recent economic downturn, economic liberalisation, and the re-migration of millions of people to their rural homeareas after temporary employment in urban areas. Finding alternative employment and stabilising household incomes for the rural poor are crucial issues in current policy discussions (Kusago, 2002;Tambunan, 2000). In eastern Indonesia, in the dominantly rural provinces of Nusa Tenggara Barat (NTB) and Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT), more than six million people are practically without commercial layer egg producers.…”

Entry Barriers in Rural Business

Market liberalisation should ideally enhance the chances for development of rural business. Yet, entry barriers in poor areas are still high and local resources like land and labour, remain underutilised. This article searches for reasons behind entry barriers in one specific business, in rural Indonesia, namely layer egg production. In Indonesia, the poultry business is strongly concentrated in Java, and the huge populations on other islands are practically without commercial egg producers. Egg prices in these regions are therefore high and quality is low. The research is based on fieldwork in five of Indonesia's islands: Java, Bali, Lombok, Sumbawa, and Flores. Traditional entry barriers, like capital costs, economies of scale, brand loyalty, and technological development, are found to be low. Main explanations for the lack of entry by small-scale entrepreneurs are: limited information and knowledge; uncertainties due to the concentration and market dominance by powerful business groups. The gap is wide between those who know and control and those who do not. Lowering entry barriers into layer egg and feed production is mainly a matter of increasing competence at the household level, but institutional changes are also required. Government institutions should play a stronger role in competence development, and local cooperatives could facilitate stable supply of quality feed.
