Abstract

As the impact of Covid-19 arises, world economic development is severely being distressed, the agricultural sector in Indonesia, as previously proven in facing economic disturbances, is expected to be resilient. The objective of this study was to analyse comprehensively the impact of covid-19 to the agricultural sector in Indonesia. This review analysed and interpreted literature, government reports, and other secondary data to understand how the negative impact of covid-19 affected the agricultural sector and what solution should be taken into account. The result showed that covid-19 caused increased risk and uncertainty, disturbed the food supply chain, and decreased farmer households’ income. Meanwhile, the political will of the government to support agricultural development is essentially important, such as setting production priority across regions, distribution of agricultural products, and relief package for farmers exposed to covid-19. This finding is expected to push agriculture to be more resistant in dealing with any emergencies this country might face in the future. Furthermore, this study identifies that factors affecting farmers signifies their importance and must be considered by the government in the pre and post cases. It is; therefore, suggested that resolving and mitigating mechanism might be adopted to keep agricultural growth moving forward.
