Abstract

Many coffee producers in Indonesia carry on organic certification to warrant their production and processing standards. One of them is Nunggal Roso Farmers Group Association (Gapoktan) which performs state-financed organic certification on their robusta coffee products. This research aims to describe farm activities and organic certification applications on Gapoktan Nunggal Roso and analyze its income and profit in 2020. As many as 60 randomly selected respondents consist of 30 organic coffee farmers and 30 non-organic coffee farmers. The organic certification impacts were analyzed using income and profit analysis and then tested for their differences statistically. These research results signify that coffee farms in the research location which has been undertaken in polyculture with shading trees and intercropping plants do not change considerably by the presence of certification. Besides, also known from the research that the return to family labor in each working person-day of organic coffee farmers is lower than that of non-organic coffee farmers.

Introduction

Customers’ demand on high quality and safe agro-industrial product is constantly increasing (Will and Guenther 2007). The global markets increasingly require standardized products, whether on its production or processing. On the other hand, the marketing of agricultural products is now increasingly impersonal so that the relationship between producers and consumers is no longer intensive(Schmid 2007). These conditions cause the exchange of information between producer and consumer not running smoothly which can lead to an uncertainty and relatively higher transaction cost(Zorn, Lippert, and Dabbert 2009). Product standarization in the form of product certification could be an alternative to resolve the problem by minimizing product fraud and protect consumer from unfair competition.

In the context of Indonesian agriculture, product certification is mostly applied on coffee commodities.Coffee is an important commodity for Indonesia because of its significant contribution to Indonesia’s economic growth, reducing the trade balance deficit, and helping to solve some of the problems of poverty, especially on rural areas(Wahyudi et al. 2020). One of the certifications applied on Indonesian coffee is organic certification.Through the organic certification, the coffee produced is guaranteed to meet standards in terms of production and procesing(Zorn, Lippert, and Dabbert 2009).

Organic coffee which is classified as specialty coffee has export opportunities when there is an excess supply of conventional coffee in the international market(Drajat, Agustian, and Supriatna 2007).Although still relatively new, the specialty coffee market has grown rapidly in recent years(Lewin, Giovannucci, and Varangis 2004). This growth was due to the industry interest and as well as high consumer demand.Apart from being of better quality, specialty coffe also targets a market niche that is competitively different market than the conventional coffee so that it can have a higher selling price.

There are several regions in Indonesia that has developed organic coffee as well as its certification. One of them is Temanggung Regency in Central Java Province.Temanggung is the biggest robusta coffee producer in Central Java. Of the many coffee producers in Temanggung, there is only one producer that has an organic certificate, namely Nunggal Roso Farmer Group Association (FGA) located in Kalimanggis Village, Kaloran District

Organic certification could be an alternative to address increasing consumer demand for food quality and safety in an increasingly impersonal market. In addition, certification is also expected to increase the selling price. However, to be considered organic, a product must go through a rigorous and high-cost certification process

This study aims to anaylse the impacts of organic certification on coffee farming income. The article will first describe how data were collected and what statistical method employed to analyse the data. A descriptive analysis of coffee farming activities in the studied area and the implementation of organic certification will then be provided. Results, discussions and conclusion drawn from the study are presented in the later parts of the article.

Methods

Research location and duration

This research was conducted on Gapoktan (Farmers Group Association/FGA) Nunggal Roso in Kalimanggis Village, Temanggung District, Temanggung Regency, Central Java Province. The location selection was purposively choosen with the consideration that Gapoktan Nunggal Roso is the only producer in Temanggung Regency that had obtained organic certificate on their coffee farming.A structured questionnaire was used and field interviews were carried from March to June 2021.

Income and profitability analysis

Descriptive analysis is used to explain the farming activity and the implementation of organic certification. The analysis of income and profit measures (Soekartawi, Dillon, and Hardaker 1984)was carried out to determine the effect of organic certification on coffee farming income (Table 1). Furthermore, the application of organic certification will be tested with the Mann-Whitney U Test to determine statistical differences in the existence of the certification.

Figure 1.

Data collection

This study uses primary data derived from 60 respondents. A total of 30 respondents from 46 populations of organic farmers were selected using random sampling method. The 30 respondents from non-organic farmers were selected by snowball sampling because there was no sampling frame

Results And Discussion

General description of the research area

Kalimanggis Village is one of the villages in Kaloran District, Temanggung Regency. Topographically, the area is located on a plateau in the form of undulating hills with an altitude between 690 m to 1150 above sea level. Based on the soil type map issued by the Temanggung Regency Government (BAPPEDA 2021), the soil type at the study location is yellowish-red latosol

The number of households in Kalimanggis Village is 891 with a population of 3050 people(BPS Kabupaten Temanggung 2016).When viewed from the histogram of population composition, the village can be categorized as an area with a stationary population(Figure 1). Most of the population are farmers who cultivate food crops, horticulture, plantations, and animal husbandry. In terms of plantation crops, the residentof Kalimanggis Village cultivate a lot of coffee, vanilla, ginger, cubeb, and kapok plants. The form of farming style that appears from the people of Kalimanggis Village is commodity diversification or polycultural cultivation.

Respondents in this study consisted of 52 male respondents (86.7%) and 8 female respondents (13.3%). The average age is 56 years for organic farmers and 53 years for non-organic farmers. In this study, it was found that 2 respondents did not attend school, while others attended school for 3 years (did not graduate from elementary school) to 17 years (bachelor). The main occupations of the respondents are farmers (93.3%), government employees (5.0%), and factory workers (1.7%). Most of the respondents had family dependents of 5-7 people (46.7%)and less than 5 people (46.7%), followed by respondents who had more than 7 dependents (6.7%).

Family income data is approximated by monthly expensesdata. In this study, most of the expensesareclassified as food expenses(59.8%). The amount of spending on food in Engel's theory indicates that most of these families are still not prosperous (Widyaningsih and Muflikhati 2015).

Farming activities related to coffee carried out by respondents are weeding, pruning, tillage, fertilizing, rejuvenation; harvesting; as well as post harvest processing. Those activity was carried out by respondents while taking care of their food or horticultural crops so that in general coffee plants have not been maintained intensively.

Organic coffee certification

The organic certification carried out at Gapoktan Nunggal Roso is included in the Ministry of Agriculture program called 1000 Organic Farming Villages. This program is in line with the Go Organic Program that was started by the Ministry of Agriculture since 2010. During the leadership period of President Joko Widodo and Vice President Jusuf Kalla, there was an Agenda Nawacita which consists of 9 priority agendas. In this case, the 1000 Organic Farming Village program is included in the 6th point of the 12thaction program, namely Indonesia Go Organic! with a pilot project in the form of 1000 organic villages which are planned to be established until 2019(Widodo and Kalla 2014, 37–38).

Regarding organic certification, most of the respondents did not understand the concept of organic certification. Most of the respondents' knowledge was limited to growing coffee without using chemical fertilizers and drugs. Under these conditions the implementation of certification may be carried out with the assistance of the local Agricultural Extension Officersor the PPLs. Organic certification itself was only carried out at the research location in 2019 with a registration fee of 25 million rupiah and a surveillance fee of 15 million annually. In the research area, there existsonly an organic coffee purchasing post that is under the auspices of Gapoktan and is tasked with buying coffee from organic farmers.

One of the impediments facing farmers in implementing organic certification is lack of market rewards for certified products.Initially, the existence of organic certification was expected to increase selling price. However, in reality buyers do not differentiate prices between organic and non-organic produces. Buyers pay more significance to coffee bean quality in determining their buying prices.

Total expenses

Coffee farming inputs consist of fertilizers, medicines, labor, equipment (depreciation), and other expenses such as Land and Building Tax (PBB), and farmer group dues. Related to the dues, Gapoktan members have yet to agree on the mechanism for sharing the fee burden, whether it will be charged per kilogram of coffee produced, divided equally for each Gapoktan member who is registered as an organic farmer, or a combination of both. Table 2 presents a breakdown of coffee farm production input per hectare of land for the year of 2020.

Figure 3.

Total farm expenses is analyzed by looking at the expenses structure formed during the coffee production process (Table 3). These expenses are then grouped into cash and non-cash expenses together with other expenses such as depreciation of tools and form the structure of farming expenses (Table 3). Expenses in the form of Family Labor, Land and Building Tax (PBB) according to Soekartawi et al. (1984)are excluded from this expense and are calculated later in the net income and net income sections

Table 3 shows that organic coffee farmers need to expend greater resources than their non-organic peers.The biggest components in organic coffee farming include manure (non-cash), equipment depreciation, and nursery transplant or scion (non-cash). For non-organic farmers, the biggest expenses are manure (non-cash), equipment depreciation, and chemical fertilizers.

It is interesting to note, even though they have received organic certification in 2019, in 2020 several organic farmers will still be found using agrochemical inputs in the form of synthetic chemical fertilizers and pesticides. This violation cannot be tolerated by the certification agency and can be subjected to sanctions for in the form of revocation of organic certification in the next planting season for farmers who violate it.

Most of Gapoktan Nunggal Roso's coffee farming expenses are non-cash expenses, namely 91.6 percent for organic farmers and 60.2 percent for non-organic farmers. Research by Fatmalasari et al.(2016)on organic certified coffee farming in West Lampung Regency also showed a ratio of non-cash expenses to total expenses that was greater than the ratio of cash expenses, namely 55.3percent for certified farmers and 52.1 percent for non-certified farmers. The large non-cash expenses ratio shows that the coffee farmers in Gapoktan Nunggal Roso still rely a lot on internal inputs and little on external inputs.

Figure 4.

Gross farm income

The production of coffee plants can be sold directly in the form of red coffee cherries, or further processed into coffee green beans or roasted coffee beans. In this research, productivity and selling price measure uses production results in the form of green beans only by converting red coffee cherries (0.25 rice coffee beans) and roasted coffee beans (1.25 coffee green beans). Productivity, average land area and selling price of coffee can be seen in Table 4.

Figure 5.

This productivity is lower when compared to the productivity of robusta coffee in other areas in the Kaloran District and the Temanggung Regency (BPS Kabupaten Temanggung 2020b; 2020a). The productivity of coffee farmat the research location,which is lower than the surrounding area,indicating that the management of coffee plantations is not yet intensive, both for organic and non-organic farmers.

It is important to note that organic coffee cultivation at Gapoktan Nunggal Roso has not changed with the presence of organic certification. Therefore, the low productivity of organic farmers is not a decrease in productivity due to conversion from non-organic cultivation to organic. The results of this study are in accordance with the findings of Berry et al.(2006)which states that the production yields of organic gardens are often 20-40% lower when compared to conventional gardens. Therefore, in its use it is recommended to add legume plant compost (beans) or synthetic chemical fertilizers from nitrogen sources such as urea(Williams et al. 1993).

When viewed from the average age of coffee plants and the number of plants per hectare, organic coffee farmers have older coffee plants (21.2 years) and fewer in number (1402 plants/ha) than coffee plants owned by non-organic coffee farmers which is younger (17.0 years) and greater in number(1764 plants/ha). The combination of older and fewer plants is one of the reason why the organic coffee farmers had lower productivity.This finding is consistent with the results of Risandewi's research (2013)which found that the number and age of coffee plants affected robusta coffee production in Temanggung Regency. Up to a certain point, younger and greater in number will be translated into a higher production.

The selling price of coffee beans for organic coffee farmers is higher than for non-organic coffee farmers. The average price for organic coffee farmers is IDR 22,787 per kilogram, higher than the price for non-organic coffee farmers, which is IDR 21,691 per kilogram. In this price discovery, organic certification has not played a significant role. The Gapoktan’s purchase post for buying organic coffee is only able to buy an average of 2300rupiah per kilogram higher than non-organic coffee. The price difference is higher than the price difference for organic farmer certification in West Lampung Regency, which is IDR 2,000 (Fatmalasari, Prasmatiwi, and Rosanti 2016)and 4C and Rainforest Alliance farmer certification in Tanggamus Regency, which is IDR 320 and IDR 200, respectively(Incamilla, Arifin, and Nugraha 2015). However, not all organic coffee can be collected by organic coffee purchase posts due to their limited capital. Similar cases are also found in the certification of Fair Trade and organic coffee farmers in Central America and Mexico (Méndez et al. 2010).

Furthermore, regarding the price of certified coffee and its impact on farmers' income, there is research by Beuchelt and Zeller (2011)in Nicaragua and Jena et al.(2012)in Ethiopia. Beuchelt and Zeller suggest that although the price of certified coffee at the farm level is higher than that of non-certified coffee, the benefits and the consequent effect on poverty levels are not clear. Jena et al.(2012)also stated that certified coffee as a whole has a low impact on the income of small-scale coffee farmers due to their low production, insignificant price premiums, and constraints on access to credit and information

The average total gross income of organic coffee farming is slightly lower, namely IDR 11,374,438.71, while the average non-organic coffee farmers earn IDR11,436,615.01 (Table 5). For both of organic and non-organic farmers, the majority of sales are in the form of green bean. The income results in this study were lower when compared to the Incamilla et al. (2015)which shows that certified farmers earn a gross income of IDR 20,694,082.00 and in Fatmalasari et al.(2016)research of IDR 20,104,348.29.

Figure 6.

Net farm income

Net farm income is the difference between gross income and total expenses of the farm. Net farm income measure the return that received by farmer family from using the factors of production, management, and own capital or loan capital which are invested on their farm(Soekartawi, Dillon, and Hardaker 1984). However, net income alone is not able to accurately show the appearance of farming. Farm performance can be more precisely measured by including the measure of net farm earnings and returns to family labor.

Interest on farmer's capital is a reward for the capital owned by farmers. In this study, farmers do not have buildings and special tools used in coffee farming, so that farmers' capital interest is only in return for land as measured by the land rental value and Landand Building Tax (PBB), which according to Soekartawi (Soekartawi, Dillon, and Hardaker 1984) can be considered a form of land rent. paid to the government. Respondent farmers in this study did not borrow capital so that the interest rate on loan capital was zero and there was no difference between net income and net earnings.

The net income of organic farmers is lower than that of non-organic farmers (Table 5). Although in the previous section it was known that the gross income of organic farmers is higher, their expenses are also high, resulting in lower net income. With net income minus the interest on the farmer's capital, there is the return for family labor, which results are also lower in organic farmers.

When the return is divided by the number of working person-day (WPD) spent by the farmer, the return for each WPD will be known. This measure can be interpreted that in organic coffee farming the farmers still benefit when the labor wage prevailing at the local location at the time of the study is less than IDR 61,383.34 and suffer losses when the labor wages are above. As for non-organic coffee farming, the farmers will benefit when local labor wages are below IDR 149,715.93 and suffer losses when labor wages are above. If we look at Table 5, the returns per Redford non-organic farmers, apart from the result of higher net income, are also caused by the lower number of HOK. From these calculations it can also be concluded that when the labor wage is more than the value of the return for the family labor, it is better for farmers to work as farm laborers rather than working on their farm because it is more profitable

Family-owned farm according to Suratiyah (2006)aims to increase the farmer's income so that when the farmer's income is still positive, the farming shall continue. Calculations using the farmer's income approach are considered to be more appropriate to the situation of the farmers because in fact, until now the coffee farming at Gapoktan Nunggal Roso is still running. In contrast to the profit approach which is not necessarily positive (loss), even though in reality the farming is still carried out by farmers.

Mann-Whitney U test

A mean difference test was conducted to determine statistical differences in the value of gross income, total expenses, net income, and return to family labor for each WPD between organic and non-organic coffee farmers. The authors employed the Mann-Whitney U test with a five percent significance level (0.05)to test the following hypotheses

H0: there is no difference between the medians of the farmer groups with regard to the variables: gross income, total expenses, net income, and return to WPD.

H1: there is difference between the medians of the farmer groups with regard to the variables: gross income, total expenses, net income, and return to WPD

If the difference in the significance value or a symp. Sig. (2-tailed) is less than five percent (0.05), the H0 is rejected, and vice versa. In this study the U test was carried out using the Statistical Packages for the Social Sciences (SPSS)program.

The results of the difference test in Table 6 show that the Mean Rank value of organic coffee farming in the gross income, total expenses, and net income variables is greater than that of non-organic coffee farming. Only for the return to family labor for each WPD the Mean Rank value of organic coffee farming is smaller than non-organic coffee farming. Meanwhile, the significance value of the variable gross income, total expenses, net income, and return to family labor for each WPD is 0.322; 0.117; 0.647; and 0.941. The four significance values are greater than 5 percent (0.05) so accept H0. It can be concluded that statistically gross income, total expenses, net income, and return to family labor for each WPD are not significantly different at the95 percent confidence level. Thus the difference in the size of farm income and earnings in nominal terms in the previous discussion is not statistically different.

Figure 7.

Policy Implications

The results show that organic certification does not lead to an increased income for small holder coffee farmers. The expenses that must be paid by organic farmers are even greater, while their productivity is lower. Because both organic and non-organic coffee share the same distribution and market channels, no price premium is given to organic produces. Without a price premium, organic farmers have no incentives to continue organic certification program.

To address the problem, the authors propose the following policy recommendations: (a) to increase productivity. Robusta coffee productivity in the study area is still lower than that of its neighboring areas. (BPS Kabupaten Temanggung 2020b; 2020a). Increasing the number of coffee plants to reach the optimal number of ±1600 plants (plant spacing of 2.5 m × 2.5m),pruning, and more efficient weeding are recommended. Apart from reducing harvesting labor, pruning also increases the production by maintaining productive branches and pruningun productive branches (Sianturi and Wachjar 2016).The authors observed an excessive weeding called besrik which can be made more efficient; (b) the Gapoktan needs to work with specialised organic coffee buyers to ensure premium prices, as is done by coffee farmers in West Lampung (Fatmalasari, Prasmatiwi, and Rosanti 2016); (c) the Ministry of Agriculture needs to show greater commitment to organic coffee development program and to intensify collaborations with relevant Ministries and coffee industries, including international and local brands, to promote organic coffee.
