In recent years, there is a significant decline of cocoa beans in terms of exports value and share after 2010. Several studies claimed that this downward trend was caused by the introduction of an export tax on cocoa beans in 2010. Nevertheless, there are limited studies on the impacts of decreasing cocoa beans exports to the Indonesian economy. Therefore, this study aimed to simulate the impacts of the imposition of export tax on cocoa beans to the economy as well as unemployment. Methodology of this study utilised the Input-Output Table. In particular, this study calculated the impacts of export tax on cocoa beans to the changes of output, primary inputs, and unemployment in several scenarios. The main result of this study was that at extreme scenario, where the cocoa beans sector’s export was eliminated, the impacts on the whole economy and unemployment were insignificant. Moreover, this study found that the impacts on value added such as decreasing of profit were relatively higher than decreasing ra te on the output and others value added such as salary and wages and indirect taxes. On the other hand, this study argued that even though the introduction of export tax effectively reduced raw cocoa beans exports, there was an increasing on the exports’ value on the down stream industries.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the potential benefit of Indonesia cocoa farmers in the global value chain inclusion. The fact that there is a gap between international price and farmer's price is due to existence of power asymmetry especially on supply side. This paper uses global value chain perspective and the existence of internet innovation in food supply chain network by reducing the power asymmetry with a benchmark from developed and emerging market. We recommend some issues need to be intervened and resolved by the government, before the farmers could benefit on global value chain inclusion by internet adoption. On the other hand, telecommunication infrastructure deployment and increasing internet penetration are the necessity, and education on benefit of ICT inclusion in daily operation is becoming the next step. This conclusion supports the role of ICT in agriculture which is providing access to the market, financial inclusion, and access to technology.
