The Death of Competitive in Comparative Advantage: The Importance Analysis of Public Policy - Case Study of Chicken Farming in Blitar Regency, East Java Province, Indonesia
Abstract
Transformation of public policy for chicken farming
in Blitar Regency, East Java Province, Indonesia was very
important. Blitar Regency was able to supply chicken’s eggs as
many as 70% for province and 30% for national in 2010. But,
reality showed that the farmers often got loss and they always
were pressured by their partner. Focus of this paper is to
describe what and why these conditions occur and to consider
what policy which is needed to solve these problems. Results of
this research showed that chicken farming in Blitar had
comparative advantage which was able to export to other regions,
but the competitiveness was still low. In terms of public policy,
central and local government only supported the preliminary
stages but they didn’t provide further regulation to protect the
farmers from the exploitation of their partner and broker who
made them be loss.
