One of its efforts is by establishing an e-commerce based e-commerce system in agriculture. E-commerce based ecommerce system can be used as an alternative for farmers, used as a media campaign, communication and information and can cut the distribution chain of agricultural products marketing. The benefits felt by farmers and consumers directly and indirectly give a positive influence, especially from the broader marketing channels of agricultural products can increase production demand and spur the procurement of production among farmers and also the price offered to consumers will be cheaper so that sales in agricultural products can be more increased and profitable for farmers

Based in part on previous research reported in the marketing channels literature, an approach for measuring interfirm power is developed which centers on power's hypothesized sources. Within a dyadic channel relationship, the role performance of a firm in its primary channel responsibilities is seen to drive the level of the other firm's dependence in their relationship. This dependence, in turn, determines the former firm's level of power over the latter firm. Empirical results from a study in a franchise channel system are used to evaluate the reliability and construct validity of the proposed measures.
