Coffee has been one of the mainstay products for Indonesia's exports to Germany since the last time and the frequency continues to increase. This reflects that Germany's need for coffee continues to grow. This study aims to measure the position of Indonesia's coffee export competitiveness in Germany. The method used in this research are Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) and Constant Market Share (CMS). The results showed that Indonesia's coffee exports were not competitive in Germany and had a downward trend. The export performance of Indonesian coffee in Germany also shows a downward trend in each period. Several things that need to be improved so that the competitiveness and performance of Indonesia's exports can increase is by disseminating information regarding the use of cultivation technology to increase the productivity of Indonesian coffee.

The termination of the employment relationship between the farmers and the company has changed the shrimp farming pattern in Bratasena Adiwarna. Prior to termination of employment, Bratasena was the largest shrimp exporter in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the competitiveness of Bratasena shrimp exports, after the termination of employment between farmers and companies. In addition, this research also aims to see the contribution of Bratasena shrimp exports in an effort to support the increase in shrimp exports in Lampung Province following the target of Lampung as the National Shrimp Granary. Data obtained by reviewing several primary and secondary documents and in-depth interviews with several sources, namely farmers, the head of the export division of PT. Central Pertiwi Bahari, as well as the Head of the Office of Marine Affairs and Fisheries in Lampung Province. This study uses a quantitative approach with the calculation of RCA (Revealed Comparative Advantage) to find the value of Bratasena shrimp export competitiveness and market share analysis to see the contribution of Bratasena shrimp exports to the increase in fisheries exports in Lampung Province.

Traditionally Handloom sector was the backbone of Indian industry and the essence of Indian civilization and culture. After the evaluation of industrialization the handloom industry is facing stiff competition with power loom and consistently upgrading technology and other industries, nevertheless, the handloom industry has the significant contribution in the India’s international as well as intra-national trade. With this background, the present paper will examine the comparative advantage of Indian handloom industry with respect to global economy by applying the Ballasa (1965) index of Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) and also examine the export competitiveness by using Porter Export competitiveness model, using highly disaggregated data from 2004 - 2013 by using WITS (World Integrated Trade Solution) WTO data set and the export performance of Indian handloom products during 2013-18 from the handloom export promotion council data set. Under the International classification of commodities at six-digit level, there are 21 groups are classified as the handloom products. This paper has calculated and analyzed the Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) of all handloom commodities at disaggregate level. Result shows that India has high revealed comparative advantage in almost all the handloom products, it’s in total 22 hand product India has high comparative advantage in 15 products and having a slight disadvantage in only 6 handloom products in studied and analyzed period of subsequent year 2004-2013. However, the export competitiveness indices show also the export advantage edge in handloom products. It shows that there is high potentiality of growth in handloom industry but lagging under capacity it lies behind it. This paper suggests government initiatives for the realization of handloom sector at its optimum level.

<p>In this research paper a Constant Market Share (CMS) approach was employed to learn export performance dynamics of Indian seafood (shrimps and cephalopods) in the major export destinations (EU, USA and select Asian countries), which accounts for a sizeable market for Indian seafood. The Constant Market Share model was used to disintegrate the growth in exports of seafood into market size effect, market composition effect and competitiveness effect. The analysis was performed for the seafood exports for a span of 12 years from the year 1996 to the year 2007, the period during which India had to face severe challenges from evolving food safety regulations in the EU and USA. The analysis was extended to account for the competitiveness at dis-aggregated commodity level. In the present study we observed enhanced competitiveness in the case of cephalopods while shrimp exports were less competitive. To a certain extent it shows that trade facilitating as well as trade restricting effects can coexist as an impact of strict food safety regulations.</p>


This research Paper examines the export competiveness of oilseeds. The main and huge production in agriculture is oilseeds which make India on the first number in Production of oilseeds in the world. Oilseeds compose one of the significant groups of cash crops in Indian agriculture. India has a proportional benefit in agriculture and there is a considerable potential in raising farm returns and employment by stepping up agro base exports. The constant market share (CONSTANT MARKET SHARE) study framework is used to decompose changes in India’s share of the worldwide market for goods export in to competitiveness and structural consequence over 2001-2017. The CONSTANT MARKET SHARE Method is universally used to observe empirically the country’s export performance. This paper is addressed to examine the regions export performance by applying CONSTANT MARKET SHARE Method.

The aim of this study is to examine the export performance and competitiveness of Pakistan's toy exports by using different indices of revealed comparative advantage. The data were looked at from the International Trade Centre (ITC) for Pakistan’s toys exports during 2004-2020. The results of this study show that Pakistan enjoyed a comparative advantage in exporting toys to the world market during 2004-2020, because the RCA index is greater than 1. The positive values of RSCA and LnRCA indicate that Pakistan had a CA in the concerned sector during 2004-2020. The study also observed that Pakistan had a competitive advantage by employing Vollrath index (RCA#). In addition, the revealed competitiveness index (RC) indicates that Pakistan experienced competitiveness in the toy export sector. The RMA index shows that Pakistan also enjoyed a comparative advantage in the imports of toys during 2004-2020. This means that Pakistan also imports these products from other economies of the world. The index of RTA describes that Pakistan had a net comparative advantage in this sector during analysis. TBI illustrates that Pakistan is the net-exporter in the toys and games sector in the global economy. Pakistan's toy manufacturers need to find new innovative and technologically advanced methods to stimulate domestic toy production and exports.

<strong>English</strong><br />The average growth rate of Indonesia’s CPO  exports was 11.94% per year, far below those of Thailand, Malaysia, and Colombia with growth rates of 59.55%, 25.19%, and 20.35% per year respectively in the 2001–2015 period. That condition was worsened by higher tax enforcement on Indonesian CPO in EU countries in 2012 causing Indonesia shifted its exports to India, China, and Pakistan. This study aims to analyze comparative advantage of Indonesian CPO compared to Malaysia, Thailand, and Colombia using the Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) analysis. The study also analyzes Indonesia’s CPO export performance in the world markets, especially in India, China, Pakistan, and Netherlands compared to other CPO producers using the Constant Market Share (CMS) approach. RCA analysis showed that Indonesia, Malaysia, Colombia, and Thailand had comparative advantage on CPO. Thailand had the highest RCA index followed by Malaysia, Colombia, and Indonesia. CMS analysis indicated that Indonesia’s CPO export performance was poorer than Malaysia in terms of growth rate, market distribution, and competitiveness, but was better in product composition. Increasing comparative advantage requires synergic policies which include establishing preferential trade agreement, constructing CPO stocking terminals in major importing countries, improving distribution and increasing market penetration.<br /><br /><br /><strong>Indonesian</strong><br />Rata-rata laju pertumbuhan ekspor minyak sawit mentah (Crude Palm Oil/CPO) Indonesia tahun 2001–2015 adalah 11,94% per tahun, jauh di bawah Thailand, Malaysia, dan Kolombia yang tumbuh masing-masing sebesar 59,55%, 25,19%, dan 20,35% per tahun. Kondisi ini diperburuk dengan pemberlakuan pajak tinggi atas CPO Indonesia di Uni Eropa pada tahun 2012 sehingga mendorong Indonesia mengalihkan fokus ekspor CPO ke India, China, dan Pakistan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui keunggulan komparatif CPO Indonesia dibandingkan dengan Malaysia, Thailand, dan Kolombia dengan menggunakan analisis Revealed Comparatif Advantage (RCA) dan mengetahui kinerja ekspor CPO Indonesia di pasar dunia terutama di India, China, Pakistan, dan Belanda dibandingkan produsen CPO lainnya dengan menggunakan pendekatan Constant Market Share (CMS). Analisis RCA menunjukan bahwa Indonesia, Malaysia, Kolombia, dan Thailand sama-sama memiliki keunggulan komparatif pada CPO. Thailand memiliki nilai indeks RCA tertinggi diikuti oleh Malaysia, Kolombia, dan Indonesia. Berdasarkan analisis CMS, kinerja ekspor CPO Indonesia lebih rendah dibandingkan Malaysia dalam aspek pertumbuhan, distribusi pasar, dan daya saing; tetapi lebih baik dalam aspek komposisi produk. Peningkatkan keunggulan komparatif CPO memerlukan kebijakan ekspor sinergis antara lain dengan mengadakan kesepakatan perdagangan preferensial, membangun fasilitas penampungan CPO di negara-negara importir utama, memperbaiki distribusi, dan meningkatkan penetrasi pasar.

Malaysia, one of the global major fish producers, has highly traded fisheries products given its many water bodies. Nonetheless, it faces a serious fish trade deficit, implying that the Malaysian fisheries sector might lose its competitiveness in the global market. This paper adopts a modified constant market share (CMS) analysis, which incorporates a net-share approach index and geometric framework, to measure the export competitiveness of the Malaysian fisheries sector. The findings reveal that half of the fisheries products exhibit optimistic export competitiveness. Malaysia reflects the strongest competitiveness in exporting frozen fish and the least competitiveness in the export of crustaceans. Additional effort and attention on those less competitive groups of aquatic invertebrates, live fish and crustaceans are required to improve the export performance. Application of the modified approach is highly proposed as it is not only a simple measurement that gives relatively more accurate results but also succeeds to overcome inconsistency in the traditional approach. The findings provide evidence of unrealised fish export potential regarding product categories, which helps policymakers, traders and marketers to develop their long-term strategic plans and enhance the export competitiveness of the fisheries sector in Malaysia.
