This study aims to analyze the effect of price changes of agricultural commodities, which consist of shallots, cayenne peppers and tomatoes on the welfare of farmers in North Sulawesi Province during 2013-2017.  This study uses farmer exchange rate in measuring the welfare of farmers.  The results show that the overall changes in the three crop prices would lead to changes in the farmer exchange rates with the adjusted R2 showing that 93.2 percent variance in farmer exchange rate could be explained by the change in price of crops.  Partially, the change in tomato prices is the only measure that predicts the changes in farmer exchange rate with the significant and positive effect, while changes in the prices of shallot and cayenne pepper do not significantly affect farmer exchange rate. The results suggest that the increase in tomato price contributes to welfare of farmers.  This is not surprising as North Sulawesi yields more tomatoes than shallots and cayenne peppers.  Therefore, it is recommended to farmers with relatad government assistance to increase tomato productivity. To farmers who still have suitable land for shallots and cayenne peppers, it is recommended to plant them to improve the welfare of North Sulawesi farmers. Keywords: Agricultural commodity, ayenne pepper, farmer exchange rate, farmers’ welfare, horticultural crops, price changes, shallot, tomato Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh perubahan harga komoditas pertanian jenis tanaman hortikultura yang terdiri dari bawang merah, cabai rawit dan tomat terhadap kesejahteraan petani di Propinsi Sulawesi Utara tahun 2013-2017. Kesejahteraan petani diukur dengan nilai tukar petani. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa secara keseluruhan perubahan harga komoditas tanaman hortikultura berpengaruh signifikan terhadap nilai tukar petani dengan nilai koefisien determinasi adjusted R2 menyatakan ada sebesar 93.2 persen variasi pada nilai tukar petani dijelaskan oleh perubahan harga komoditas hortikultura. Namun, jika dianalisa secara parsial, ditemukan hanya perubahan harga komoditas tomat yang berpengaruh signifikan positif terhadap nilai tukar petani sedangkan perubahan harga komoditas bawang merah dan cabai rawit tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap nilai tukar petani.  Hasil ini menyatakan, bahwa kenaikan harga tomat berkontribusi signifikan terhadap kesejahteraan petani.  Hal ini tidak mengherankan, sebab untuk Sulawesi Utara hasil produksi tomat lebih banyak dibandingkan dengan bawang merah ataupun cabai rawit.  Direkomendasikan kepada petani Sulawesi utara dengan bantuan pemerintah terkait untuk meningkatkan produktivitas tanaman tomat untuk dapat meningkatkan kesejahteraan petani.  Kepada petani yang masih memiliki lahan pertanian yang cocok untuk tanaman bawang merah dan cabai rawit direkomendasikan untuk ditanami agar dapat meningkatkan kesejahteraan petani Sulawesi Utara.

The Relationship

Fairness in income distribution is a factor that both motivates employees and contributes to maintaining social stability. In Vietnam, fair income distribution has been studied from various perspectives. In this article, through the analysis and synthesis of related documents and evidence, and from the perspective of economic philosophy, the author applies John Rawls’s Theory of Justice as Fairness to analyze some issues arising from the implementation of the state’s role in ensuring fair income distribution from 1986 to present. These are unifying the perception of fairness in income distribution; solving the relationship between economic efficiency and social equality; ensuring benefits for the least-privileged people in society; and controlling income. On that basis, the author makes some recommendations to enhance the state’s role in ensuring fair income distribution in Vietnam.
