Agriculture

Nowadays, many people have realized that agriculture is much more important than as the supporting tools in economic development. In Indonesia, agriculture should be the priority of development because of some good reasons.

First of all, the agriculture’s contribution in the beginning of the development is highest among the other sectors. At present, almost half of total Indonesian labors are working in agriculture sector, but the contribution of agriculture sector does not reach 30 percent.

Second, agriculture sector is expected to fulfill the need of food in a country. As the number of population increase in an alarming rate each year, food supply must also increase. But in developing countries, food production and agricultural production per capita never increase more than one percent each year, and in some extreme case, it even stagnant.

Last but not least, without agricultural development, the growth of industrial sector will be hampered because the growth that comes from industry will bring a wider gap into the internal economy in that country. In turn, this gap will create serious poverty problem, wider inequality of income distribution, and increase unemployment.

Based on the above discussion, it is obvious that the government should put agriculture as the priority of national development.

Questions
2. What is the further effect if we have poor development of agriculture?

T. Azzahra · Accepted Answer

Jawaban untuk soal di atas adalah "The further effect if we have poor development of agriculture is that it causes the emergence of the inequality that creates poverty and increases unemployment."

Soal ini menanyakan apa dampak selanjutnya jika kita mengalami perkembangan pertanian yang buruk.

Pada paragraf keempat disebutkan "without agricultural development, the growth of industrial sector will be hampered" yang artinya "tanpa perkembangan pertanian, pertumbuhan sektor industri akan terhambat."

Kemudian terdapat kalimat "In turn, this gap will create serious poverty problem, wider inequality of income distribution, and increase unemployment" yang artinya "Pada gilirannya, kesenjangan ini akan menciptakan masalah kemiskinan yang serius, ketimpangan distribusi pendapatan yang lebih luas, dan meningkatkan pengangguran."

Berdasarkan kalimat tersebut, dapat disimpulkan bahwa  perkembangan pertanian yang buruk akan menghambat sektor industri sehingga timbulnya kesenjangan yang menciptakan kemiskinan hingga pengangguran.

Dengan demikian kalimatnya menjadi "The further effect if we have poor development of agriculture is that it causes the emergence of the inequality that creates poverty and increases unemployment" yang artinya "Dampak lebih lanjut jika kita memiliki pembangunan pertanian yang buruk adalah menyebabkan munculnya ketimpangan yang menciptakan kemiskinan dan meningkatkan pengangguran."

Jadi, jawaban yang tepat adalah "The further effect if we have poor development of agriculture is that it causes the emergence of the inequality that creates poverty and increases unemployment."
