Abstract

The need for evidence-based policies is very important for now and the future to make quality policies. Moreover, if these policies are strategic policies, have a broad impact, are a national scale, and involves inter-ministries/institutions. Plantation commodities are strategic commodities that play an important role in the national economy. For this reason, it is necessary to determine priority plantation commodities and their macroeconomic analysis. The method used is impact analysis (forward and backward linkage) and multiplier analysis using the 2016 Input-Output Table. The findings of this study are that the priority plantation commodities are palm oil, natural rubber, sugarcane, coconut, tea, coffee, and cocoa. In conclusion, the commodities that have the greatest ability to absorb labor force and increase people's welfare/purchasing power are palm oil, coffee, and coconut, while the commodities that have the ability to increase national productivity or have a major impact on economic growth are palm oil, tea, and coffee.
