<p align="left"> </p><p><strong><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Abstrak </span></strong></p><p>Indonesia merupakan negara produsen tempe terbesar di dunia dan menjadi pasar kedelai terbesar di Asia. Sebanyak 50% dari konsumsi kedelai Indonesia digunakan untuk memproduksi tempe, 40% untuk tahu, dan 10% untuk produk lain (seperti tauco, kecap, dan lain-lain). Dukungan yang diberikan pemerintah untuk mendorong daya saing produksi tempe kedelai salah satunya adalah dengan menetapkan Standar Nasional Indonesia (SNI) tempe kedelai yaitu SNI 3144:2009. Kesesuaian produk tempe dengan standar dapat melindungi kesehatan konsumen, menjamin perdagangan pangan yang jujur dan bertanggung jawab, diversifikasi/pengembangan produk dan mendukung perkembangan industri tempe kedelai. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kemampuan produsen tempe dalam memenuhi persyaratan SNI 3144:2009 – tempe kedelai. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan cara mengujikan 55 sampel produk tempe di laboratorium yang terakreditasi oleh KAN. Penentuan jumlah sampel dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode Slovin terhadap jumlah Primkopti yang ada di masing-masing wilayah. Sedangkan untuk teknik samplingnya menggunakan teknik acak lengkap sederhana. Kesimpulan yang peroleh dari penelitian ini adalah masih banyak produsen tempe yang belum dapat menerapkan SNI 3144:2009 untuk parameter kadar air, kadar lemak, kadar protein, dan serat kasar. Parameter kadar lemak menjadi parameter yang paling sulit untuk dipenuhi oleh produsen tempe kedelai.</p><strong><strong></strong></strong><p>Kata kunci<strong><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Arial; font-size: xx-small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Arial; font-size: xx-small;">: produsen tempe kedelai, SNI 3144:2009, penerapan standar. </span></span></span></strong><strong><strong><em></em></strong></strong></p><p>Abstract</p><strong><em></em></strong><p>Indonesia is the largest soybean tempeh producer in the world and the largest soybean markets in Asia. As many as 50% of Indonesian soybean consumption is used to produce tempeh, 40% for tofu, and 10% for other products (such as tauco, ketchup, etc.). The supports given by the government to boost the competitiveness of soybean tempeh one of which was established the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) for soybean tempeh that is SNI 3144: 2009. Conformity of tempeh to standard can protect the health of consumers, ensure fair and responsible food trade, product diversification/development and supporting the development of soybean tempeh industry. This study aims to analyze the ability of producers to meet the requirements of SNI 3144: 2009 - soybean tempeh. This research was done by testing out of 55 samples of soybean products in laboratories accredited by KAN. Determination on number of samples is done by slovin methode against number of Primkopti in each region. As for the sampling technique used was simple random sampling technique. The conclusions obtained from this study is there are still many tempeh producers who have not been able to implement SNI 3144: 2009 for these parameters: water content, fat content, protein content, and fiber. fulfilment of fat content is the most difficult parameters to be met by the producers.</p><strong><strong></strong></strong><p>Keywords<span style="font-family: Arial,Arial; font-size: xx-small;"><em><span style="font-family: Arial,Arial; font-size: xx-small;">: soybean tempeh producers, </span></em></span><span style="font-family: Arial,Arial; font-size: xx-small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Arial; font-size: xx-small;">SNI 3144:2009</span></span><em><span style="font-family: Arial,Arial; font-size: xx-small;">, standard implementation. </span></em></p><em></em>

The Impact

Subject Global hunger crisis. Significance UN agencies have warned of increasing global hunger due to the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Some 135 million people faced ‘crisis’ levels of hunger in 2019, of which the majority were located in just two regions: 73 million in Africa and 43 million in the Middle East, according to the World Food Programme (WFP). The 2019 figure, already a four-year high, could nearly double to 265 million by end-2020. Impacts Disruptions to agricultural input supply will negatively affect future planting seasons. Establishing national strategic food reserves will become more attractive, although these distort food markets. Automated food handling and fruit-picking will become more popular but technological challenges persist. Movement restrictions, especially at ports and transport hubs, will disrupt food trade throughout 2020 and possibly beyond.

Abstract During the past decades, agricultural trade is enormously expanded. One of its driving factors is the World Trade Organization. However, regional agreements can give further trade opportunities for the participating countries. Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) is one of them. This article aims to give a detailed overview of ASEAN members’ agri-food trade by using the world and regional level data. The country level competitiveness is calculated by four different Balassa-type indices and highlights whether the agri-food trade (practice) of these countries is in line with the revealed comparative advantages/competitiveness of the different product groups (theory). According to the results, commodities with the highest comparative advantages overlap with the most important export products. This confirms a tight connection between theory and practice. It should also be noted that world level values are generally higher than that of the regional levels. Moreover, countries with significant agri-food production (Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Malaysia) can be characterized by higher comparative advantages compared to the other ASEAN member states. These results can help to better understand these countries’ trade specialization and international trade performance.

Balassa Index

Intra-ECOWAS trade and food evxports have been debated and given attention in recent years. The paper uses an analytical tool, called ‘products mapping’ following some methods, such as trade balance index, Balassa index and Lafay index to analyse comparative advantages in all 46 food items (SITC 0 + 1 + 22 + 4) in trade between Nigeria and ECOWAS as well as the world. The findings suggest that Nigeria has performed better in trading with other ECOWAS countries than in trading with the overall world market. For Nigeria and the world, the findings reveal that the country’s comparative advantages reduced from 12 out of 46 (12/46) in 1995 to 8/46 food products in 2017. The notable products that reveal comparative advantages and positive TBI are cocoa (SITC 072), crustaceans (SITC 036), fruits and nuts (SITC 057); and oil seeds and oleaginous fruits (SITC 222). Contrary to Nigeria’s trade with the world, the results suggest that the country’s comparative advantages in trading with ECOWAS countries rose from 19/46 in 1995 to 26/46 food products in 2017. The notable products that show comparative advantages and positive TBI are tobacco, edible products, maize and wheat. Inversely, food products with comparative disadvantage and adverse TBI, slightly reduced from 18/46 in 1995 to 17/46 in 2017. The findings further suggest that the structure of Nigeria’s food trade with ECOWAS has started involving and improving, albeit at a slow pace. There is an urgent need to stimulate domestic food production and food processing industries for domestic consumption and exports. Regional and national agricultural policies should be dramatically implemented for self-sufficiency and more comparative advantages and the number of positive TBI to be ensured and sustained.

One of the goals of sustainable development of the world economy is to reduce per capita food waste in food trade and catering. The transformation of regional infrastructure in food trade and catering should significantly affect the solution for this problem in production and supply chains in Russia as its economy is digitalized. A study of creation and operation of a regional information platform of food trade and catering at the retail and consumer levels, which should be built using end-to-end digital technologies to provide to the consumers information about products with limited sale times from food stores and catering organizations, is becoming particularly important in this process.

Nowadays, production of goods increases hugely all over the world, resulting an enormous increasing in international trade. Trade in industrial goods grows at a large rate due to trade liberalization, while agriculture is one of the most vulnerable sectors all over the world. However, barriers of agri-food trade were reduced or eliminated; there are still many obstacles to the totally free trade of agricultural products (e.g. restrictions, safeguards, bans, limitations, etc), especially in the European Union. Besides the WTO’s liberalization pressure and its multilateral negotiations, there are a lot of countries that have signed bilateral agreements. In this study, it was examined, what kind of bilateral agreements were entered into force by the EU and how was international agri-food trade influenced by these bilateral agreements as well as by restrict measures. For this, secondary data were analyzed by different statistical methods and the effect of trade measures was characterized by using this results. From the results it can be concluded that EU has preferred different agreements with the various country groups as well as EU has applied different kind of agreements in different eras. The EU’s average growth rate of food trade and average share of food trade is highly variable by partner countries. Bilateral agreements have not always caused trade growth between the two partner regions. The EU’s restrict measurements effect the EU’s foreign trade, because these restrictions are applied to meat products and these commodities are imported the less in the EU.

- During the last twenty years world agri-food commerce shows an important growth owing to traded quantities increase and also to economic development of competitors on the world scene. This article is about agrifood commerce in European Union market. The aim of the paper is to compare the agri-food trade flows of Italy and France, two Mediterranean countries with very intense trade relations. For Italian agri-food system, in fact, France is the top import market and the second export market. On the basis of eurostat data, the paper focuses on import and export flows between Italy and the other European Union countries, on one side, and, on the other side, in the same way, between France and EU countries. The purpose is to value if - and at what extend - exchanged products are similar, to know if trade relationships between Italy and France are complementary rather then competitive. The first part of the paper consists of a brief introduction that is about the main trends of agrifood trade in the countries we examined. The most important data of agrifood balance are reported and discussed, and their trends examined over the period 1999-2006. The second part concerns more specifically the analysis of similarity. The analysis is based on three different kind of index: 1. the similarity and specialization indexes make possible the value the level of specialization and complementarity of Italy and France agri-food trade relations and their evolutional trend; 2. Finger-Kreinin and Hirshmann indexes measure structural changes in trade patterns over the period 1999-2006; 3. Balassa index gives information on compared advantages of competitors. As said above, we use eurostat external trade statistics, all data are related to intra European Union flows. In the database, for trade purposes, goods are classified according to Combined nomenclature in the European Union. The classification is based on the Harmonised Commodity Description and Coding System (hs) managed by the World Customs Organisation (wco); the hs uses a six digit numerical code for the coding of products. This article is part of a work in progress whose object is wider. The analysis will be extended to all Mediterranean countries, European Union Members and Third Countries, so our object is now to have a first discussion of the partial results we obtained.JEL Code: Q17Key words: agri-food commerce, European Union market, analysis of similarity, competitive advantage
