This study aims to investigate the vector direction of the relationship between agriculture performance, employment in agriculture, and education in Indonesia. This research uses the vector analysis method. where the dependent variable and the independent variable take turns to see the direction of the relationship of each variable to each other. All data used in this study are sourced from the world bank data. We found that labor absorption in the agricultural sector in Indonesia continues to decline very sharply, it becomes a threat to agriculture performance in the future. Because there is a decline in performance in the future due to labor shortages and it is possible that the agricultural sector will be completely destroyed when there is a shortage of labor in this sector if the interest of the Indonesian youth in the agricultural sector is not invested.

In this blog post originally published on the World Bank Development Impact blog, BITSS and the JDE Editorial Team reflect on lessons learned from the first year of pre-results review and offer perspectives on the future of pre-results review at the JDE and in the discipline as a whole. Given the high interest among authors and the largely positive experiences so far, the JDE has decided to make pre-results review a permanent track for article submission at the journal.
