<p>Indonesia is currently still the world’s prime exporter of nutmeg. Meanwhile, the quality requirements demanded by the world market continue to increase that needs Indonesian intention seriously. This article reveals the performance of Indonesian and global nutmeg production, competitiveness and potential, challenges and opportunities of Indonesia to survive as the major world’s producer and supplier of nutmeg. In 2019, Indonesia produced 37 thousand tons and exported 20 thousand tons to fill 52 thousand tons of the nutmeg world market, with India (12 thousand tons), Sri Lanka (3 thousand tons), and other countries. Unfortunately, Indonesian nutmeg price is lower than Grenada and India, even European Union (EU), the USA, and Japan rejected Indonesian nutmeg 54 times from 2014 to 2016. Indonesia’s potential as a major producer of nutmeg is still good because this commodity is an indigenous plant of Indonesia, the land and climate are suitable for the nutmeg development, and the cultivation method is in line with GAP (Good Agricultural Practices). The challenge is that the quality standard of nutmeg products is getting higher, so be necessary to develop the farmers to meet the standard. The strategy to maintain Indonesia as the world’s main nutmeg producer and supplier is; 1) increasing the intensity of assistance to improve farmers knowledge regarding quality, health, food safety, and sustainable production as well as post-harvest technology, 2) improving professionalism, skill, and adequacy of assistant officers, 3) continuing to encourage nutmeg cultivation following GAP, and 4) lessons learned from the country of Grenada in policy intervention to improve quality, product diversification, and product safety of nutmeg.</p><p>Keywords: Myristica fragrans, production, export, quality</p><p> </p><p><strong>Abstrak</strong></p><p><strong>STRATEGI MEMPERTAHANKAN INDONESIA SEBAGAI PRODUSEN</strong><br /><strong>UTAMA PALA DUNIA</strong></p><p>Indonesia saat ini masih berstatus sebagai eksportir utama pala dunia. Sementara itu, persyaratan mutu pala di pasar dunia terus meningkat yang perlu mendapat perhatian serius agar Indonesia tetap menjadi produsen utama pala. Artikel ini mengungkapkan tren produksi pala Indonesia dan dunia, daya saing, potensi, tantangan, dan peluang untuk bertahan sebagai produsen dan pemasok utama pala dunia. Pada tahun 2019 Indonesia menghasilkan 37 ribu ton pala dan mengekspor 20 ribu ton untuk mengisi 52 ribu ton pasar pala dunia, bersama India (12 ribu ton), Srilangka (3 ribu ton), dan beberapa negara lainnya. Sayangnya, harga pala Indonesia lebih rendah dari pala Grenada dan India, bahkan pada tahun 2014-2016 terjadi 54 kasus penolakan ekspor pala Indonesia ke Uni Eropa, Amerika Serikat, dan Jepang. Potensi Indonesia sebagai produsen utama pala masih baik karena komoditas ini merupakan tanaman asli Indonesia, lahan dan iklim sesuai untuk pengembangan pala, dan cara budi daya sejalan dengan GAP (Good Agricultural Practices). Tantangan yang dihadapi adalah semakin tingginya standar mutu produk pala di pasar dunia sehingga perlu pembinaan petani untuk memenuhi standar tersebut. Strategi untuk mempertahankan Indonesia sebagai penghasil dan pemasok utama pala dunia adalah sebagai berikut: 1) meningkatkan intensitas pendampingan agar petani lebih paham terhadap aspek mutu, kesehatan, keamanan pangan, keberlanjutan produksi, dan pengelolaan pascapanen untuk memperbaiki mutu pala; 2) memperbaiki profesionalitas, kecakapan, dan kecukupan petugas pendamping; 3) mendorong petani untuk mengikuti budi daya pala sesuai GAP; dan 4) mengambil pembelajaran dari Grenada dalam mengintervensi kebijakan untuk meningkatkan produksi, mutu, diversifikasi, dan keamanan produk pala.</p><p>Kata kunci: Pala, produksi, ekspor, mutu</p>

The world industry is on a threshold of a new development cycle which is characterized by emergence of breakthrough technologies: distributed ledger technology, drone-type devices, 3D printing, virtual reality, Internet of things, augmented reality etc. Due to these technologies fundamental changes will take place in the majority of economic branches. The automotive industry is not an exception. This industry plays one of the key roles in economy in a great number of countries and changes occurring in it lead not only to creation of new products, technical processes but these changes also entail improvement of the industrial base which has been already created. The Republic of Belarus considers an automotive industry as one of key industries for its economy and its efficiency has a high dependency factor pertaining to speed of innovation emergence and implementation that is strategically important aspect of increase in competitiveness both on current sales markets and on potential ones. The paper pays a special attention to two main trends arising in the course of forming a new industrialization: increase in environmentally-friendly fuel systems and digital transformation. Problems of world ecology have exerted a considerable impact on developments in the field of alternative energy sources. Speed of development and promotion of electric vehicles considerably exceed “breakthrough” innovation developments of the past. However a great number of factors can have a significant effect on the future of electric vehicles and two of them are thoroughly considered in the paper: cost of energy (batteries) and price of oil (at the price of about 20 USD for barrel the development rate will considerably decrease). Besides the matter of environmental friendliness the paper pays attention to services of digital transformation. The world has already presented examples pertaining to usage of remote control for dump trucks, telematics etc. Such an approach makes it possible for organizations to optimize substantially an expenditure budget and doing so we increase resource use efficiency. The paper also contains a review of innovations in the automotive industry of the Republic of Belarus: BelGee electric cars, Belkommunmash electrobuses, developments of large industrial equipment.


This paper aims to analyze the challenges and opportunities that are facing developing countries in the process of creating the digital economy. Digital economy is characterized by high added value, faced with numerous obstacles, many developing countries cannot adequately respond to the demands of the digital economy. The digital economy is also referred to as the Internet Economy, New Economy, or Web Economy. The largest players in the world market are digital economy companies – Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon and others, which are among the most expensive companies in the world in terms of market capitalization. The Fourth Industrial Revolution is rapidly driving transformational disruption across every sector. An estimated 70% of new value created in the economy over the next decade will be based on digitally enabled platforms. Digital technologies should be a driving force for innovations in the Ukrainian economic system. Digitalization of the economy and life spheres will create new jobs, make Ukrainian business more competitive and less resource oriented, attract new investors. Digital transformation is a daunting task. Countries that have reached the highest level of digital maturity have had to deal with complex cultural, organizational, and technical issues, and only counting of all these factors have made these transformations successful. The widespread use of digital technologies, extensive digital infrastructures are contributing to the economy digitization.

Coal Bed Methane (CBM) is an unconventional resource that shows great promise, particularly in Indonesia, whose CBM reservoir is relatively thick. Gas reserves of CBM are estimated at 450 TSCF in Indonesia, which makes it, the 6th largest CBM-containing country in the world. However, regulatory and technical limitations slow the progression of the exploitation of this resource. One of the fundamental technical problems is related to the length of gas production due to the duration of the dewatering time. Many studies have been developed related to the production of CBM, and this paper discusses several characteristics, patterns and techniques regarding the production of methane gas from coal through the use of a sacrifice well. Several scenarios are analysed with the use of a simulator. The results show that the production of a thick CBM reservoir, with some sensitivity patterns of production through the use of a sacrifice well, have an influence on the production of gas and water for the exploitation of CBM resources. In other words, the use of new techniques that are discussed in this paper have an impact on reducing the dewatering time and are effectively implemented in Indonesia, which has thick CBM formations.

<p>Coal bed methane (CBM) is an unconventional energy resources in which the main ingredient is methane gas formed in the process of formation of coal (coalification). Based on research Advance Resource International inc. (ARI), the CBM resource potential is 453 Tcf spread across 11 basins in Indonesia. CBM technology is expected to be one of the alternative energy can play a role in helping to suppress the natural gas needs of oil as one of the energy commodities di Indonesia.<br />This paper discusses about a calculated initial volume of gas in place (Gas in Place) on CBM reservoir “X” field. This initial gas volume calculation first calculating the gas content is becoming an important parameter in calculating the initial volume. This content gas value can be obtained through data analysis proximate such as ash content, moisture content, volatile matter, fixed carbon which such data can be obtained from laboratory results. But there is also the calculation of the gas content which can be obtained by simply using coal density data using several methods of calculation, such as the Mavor method, Bambang, Modified Kim, and Mullen method. In the “X” field there are five wells coalbed methane drilling has been done, namely, SS-1, SS-2, SS 3, SS-4 and SS-5 and there are five layers are seam-1, seam-2, seam-3, seam-4, and seam-5. Based on the calculations were also obtained in the “X” field coal rank, the average is sub-bitminous. Of the five wells will be calculated gas content and the initial volume of gas using a method Mavor, Bambang, Modified Kim, and Mullen.<br />Using four methods then the gas content in the SS well ranged between 200-500 SCF / ton. And assuming that the well drainage area (A) covering an area of 100 acres, the obtained large volumes of coal bed methane wells SS-1 with the four methods ranged from 3-9 BSCF, the SS-2 ranged between 1-3 BSCF, wells SS- 3 are 2-5 BSCF, the SS-4 range between 1-3 BSCF and the SS-5 ranges between 1-3 BSCF.<br />We will be compared the initial gas volume in the Field “X” using the four methods with data from the laboratory result. From that analysis it can be proved that the Bambang method is the most suitable method and represents CBM field in Indonesia. So the initial gas volume in Field “X” is using the result from Bambang method, and the result are 5312.17 MMscf on the SS-1well, 2385.77 MMscf on the SS-2 well, 3330.84 MMscf on the SS-3 well, 1635.44 MMscf on the SS-4 well, and 1608.74 MMscf on the SS-5 well. And the total initial gas volume in the “X” Field is 14273 MMSCF.</p>

Indonesia has one of the largest Coal Bed Methane (CBM) reserves in the world with a potential 453 trillion cubic feet (“Tcf”), more than double the country’s natural gasreserves. The government, therefore, is planning to exploite its huge potential reserves and targetting to produce 1 billion standard cubic fee per day, or about 0.18 million barrelof oil equivalent, by 2025. Several new regulations have been passed, but non is related to protection to the environment as an impact of the development of CBM. If it is not well regulated and managed properly, the environmental impact will be enormous. This paper presents assessment results on the environmental and social impacts which likelywill be faced by Indonesia from improper development of CBM in Indonesia. Certainly, there will be very serious and unaviodable negative impacts to the environment withoutcareful plan and proper environmental regulation put in place prior to the development of CBM. The government will have to develop a specific regulation regarding CBMdevelopment in the near future before everything is too late.

The article deals with legal and economic issues of development of unconventional and hard-to-recover gas resources of Russia in comparison with other countries of the world. The emphasis is made on this type of resource due to its growing environmental relevance and technological capabilities. The following categories of this type of resource (hard-to-recover gas resources) are considered: shale gas, coal bed methane, gas hydrates. The Russian modern experience of their involvement in the economy is evaluated. The most perspective country regions in terms of reserves and their exploration are highlighted. Today development of unconventional gas resources is one of strategic objectives ofperspective national and regional sustainable resource supply. The transition moment from traditional resources to «unconventional» is determined not only by the comparability of the costs of their involvement in the economy, but also by the environmental needs of the world, national and regional level.

China's socioeconomic accumulation in the last 30 years has been probably one of the most outstanding global developments and has resulted in massive new challenges for core and periphery countries. The article examines how China's rapid and massive integration to the world market has posed new challenges for countries such as Mexico - and most of Latin America - as a result of China's successful exportoriented industrialization. China's accumulation and global integration process does, however, not only question and challenges the export-possibilities in the periphery, but also the global inability to provide energy in the medium term.
