Book Description
Excerpt from Agriculture in Indonesia Indonesia has two distinct agricultural sectors-the estate sector, using advanced capital-intensive techniques, and the smallholder sector, using traditional labor intensive methods. Before World War II, the estate sector was the main producer of agricultural export crops, but by 1965 it was contributing only one-quarter of all foreign exchange earnings. The estate sector was hard hit by the Second World War and the revolution which followed. Since the nationalization of the estate industries, which began in 1957, export earnings from the estate sector have declined still furth er-a result of the loss of technical and managerial personnel as well as of investment capital. Meanwhile the smallholder's share of agricultural exports (mainly rubber) has been steadily rising and has reached well over 60 percent. Java and Madura support more than two-thirds of Indonesia's population on less than one-tenth of its land, and grow mainly subsistence food crops such as rice, corn, and cassava. Farming plots on Java and Madura are very small, and it is estimated that 60 percent of the small farmers are share croppers. Implementation of legislation for land reform has met with many obstacles. The intensive cultivation of Java and Madura (mainly wet-rice) contrasts sharply with that of the Outer Islands, where the soil is not as rich and shifting-field agriculture occupies much of the arable land. Although some estates are on Java, most of the great plantation industries are located on Sumatra. Rice growing occupies more than one-third of Indonesia's total area in crops. In 1965, rice production, estimated at 14 million metric tons, was up almost 7 percent over the previous year, and the outlook for 1966 was even higher. However, the Government has recently had severe difficulties in procuring sufficient rice for the vast rice distribution program to which it is committed, particularly for military and civil service personnel living in the cities. As a result of this as well as the rapidly increasing population (at least percent annually), rice imports rose by about 52 percent between the periods 1955-59 and 1960-64, and by 1964 were exceeding 1 million tons annually. Although rice imports fell sharply in 1965 as a result of President Sukarno's rejection of trade and aid from the West, they were expected to recover somewhat in 1966. Thailand and Burma usually have led as sources of rice, and during the past 10 years, the United States, as a result of p.l. 480 shipments-espe cially of rice but also dried skim milk, wheat flour, and tobacco-has also become a leading supplier.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Agricultural Economy of Indonesia The Japanese invasion of Indonesia m 1942 brought to an abrupt end more than 300 years of Dutch hegemony in these East Indian islands. Under Dutch rule the Netherlands East Indies had been one of the most profitably and efficiently run colonies in Asia. They are said to have contributed annually one-sixth of the Dutch national income. Because of their financial dependence on the Indies the Dutch concentrated on economic penetration of the islands and exercised comparatively little cultural influence. A paternalistic administration deliberately sought to preserve the traditional structure of Indonesian society as a barrier against the spread of nationalistic aspirations among the people. Politi cal parties, trade unions, free press, and liberal education were tolerated only to a minor degree. Individuals and organizations that openly espoused the cause of Indonesian nationalism were repressed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
