DAYA SAING UDANG SEGAR DAN UDANG BEKU INDONESIA DI NEGARA TUJUAN EKSPOR UTAMA
Abstract: Fishery is one of
the sub-sectors holding role in the national economy. Fresh and frozen shrimps
are the superior fishery export commodities contributing to Indonesia as the
shrimp exporting country. Nevertheless, the volume of shrimp exports in
Indonesia is still relatively low compared to that of other exporting
countries. This is due to low productivity of shrimp farming in Indonesia. This
study aimed to analyze the competitiveness of Indonesian fresh and frozen
shrimps in the main export destination countries as well as to analyze the
factors influencing the competitiveness in those countries. The data used in
this study were series of timeline for 120 months, from January 2005 to
December 2014. Thus, the analysis of the competitiveness of Indonesian shrimps
was conducted by using Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), while the analysis
of the factors influencing competitiveness of Indonesia shrimps was performed
by using the Error Correction Model (ECM). The results showed that the
competitiveness of fresh shrimps of Indonesia in its export destination
countries is still low compared that of frozen shrimps. One of the factors
affecting the competitiveness of fresh shrimp exports from Indonesia to
Malaysia in the short term is its total production. The competitiveness of
Indonesia frozen shrimps in the United States is influenced by the level of
competitiveness of the frozen shrimp exports to America on the previous period,
export prices of Vietnamese frozen shrimps, and frozen shrimp production in
Indonesia.
