ABSTRACT

The objectives of conducting research on the acceleration of the development of superior agricultural commodities are to make an inventory and a map of the leading commodities in the agricultural sector in Maybrat Regency, West Papua, Indonesia, as well as designing and formulating a model for accelerating the development of superior agricultural commodities by taking into account the criteria for leading commodities. The analysis tool is the Model Composite Performance Index (CPI). From the results of the analysis, it was found that the commodities analyzed are commodities that farmers have cultivated for a long time, but some commodities are introduced by outsiders in Maybrat Regency, West Papua, Indonesia. In addition, it was found that the five main aspects of developing superior agricultural commodities in Maybrat are: increasing local government interventions, improvement of production facilities and infrastructure, increasing market opportunities, encouraging an increase in business capital, and production continuity improvement. The low application of agricultural zone development programs, the lack of implementation efforts to produce fresh competition, and the implementation of harmonious agricultural zone industrial ties hinder the development of agricultural zones. So that the role of the government in accelerating the development of superior commodities in the agricultural sector becomes important and strategic; without government intervention, efforts to accelerate the development of superior commodities will run in place. However, it should also be understood that farmers/breeders/fishermen as business actors in the agricultural sector also have a strategic role in the intended acceleration effort.
