Study of the Performance of the Organic Robusta People's Coffee Agribusiness Supply Chain in Pasuruan Regency

Abstract

Indonesia is a coffee producer and also an important consumer of coffee commodities.  As a producer, Indonesia ranks fourth after Brazil, Vietnam and Colombia, and as a consumer it is in seventh place (International Coffee Organization, 2019). Organic farming is the answer to the green revolution promoted in the 1960s which caused reduced soil fertility and environmental damage due to the uncontrolled use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Agricultural systems based on high energy input such as chemical fertilizers and pesticides can damage the soil which can ultimately reduce soil productivity, resulting in the development of organic farming. According to (Pebrianti et al., (2020), the enthusiasm of coffee-based businesses is increasing so that coffee and its various product derivatives are increasingly popular in the country. Coffee consumption has now become one part of the lifestyle and daily lives of the world's people and the most important trading commodity after oil. Indonesia is one of the fourth largest producers in the world.

This research aims to analyze the performance of the organic robusta people's coffee supply chain in Pasuruan Regency. The data used in this research includes primary and secondary data. Research locations include Tutur, Purwosari and Prigen Districts in Pasuruan Regency. The data collection process was carried out using knowledge directly provided by researchers to 150 organic robusta coffee farmers. The data analysis method used in this research uses the stochastic frontier production function to answer supply chain performance and farmer's share for marketing.
