II. Body of Paper


Some of the impact of the Dieses corona virus on the agricultural sector, one of which
is the price of agricultural commodities experiencing disruption. One of the agricultural
commodities that experienced disruption was the increase in garlic. the price of garlic in
traditional markets in various regions was recorded to rise. Alleged rise in the price of garlic
related to the prohibition meant agricultural products from China due to the Corona virus. in
Indramayu Regency, West Java, the price of garlic jumped from Rp 35,000 per kg to
Rp.80,000 per kg, the reason being that the stock was running low. The price of garlic in
Medan, North Sumatra, has also increased from Rp. 25,000 per kilogram to Rp. 50,000 per
kilogram, said a trader at the Medan Petisah traditional market, lena. this is imported garlic,
maybe because of the Corona virus, so the supply there is reduced, said trade minister Agus
suparmanto Monday (3/2), said it would stop importing food and beverages originating from
China in addition to food and beverages the government would also stop garlic. Pihasto said
that garlic is also the most horticultural commodity imported from China, about 90% of the
national garlic needs are still met by imported supplies. the majority of imported garlic is
imported from the bamboo curtain country because of its large size and low price.
The impact caused by other Corona viruses in the agricultural sector is the demand
for drones to soar. several new technology companies in agriculture have increased demand,
including specialized agricultural drones. in the first 2 months of 2020 we sent 4000 units,
the newly released agricultural drone said Justin Gong, one of the founders of XAG, the
maker of agricultural drones as quoted from (NBC, Wednesday (11/3/2020). Besides XAG,
the company through the chief marketing officer , Liu Zhou said the company and projected
revenue jumped four times this year to over 30 million yuan / 4.31 million US dollars or 602
billion. (exchange rate of Rp. 14,000 per US dollar) while the buyers of this agricultural
drone were agricultural companies. large, local governments and distributors of agricultural
products are done as a substitute for human labor that is vulnerable to corona outbreaks.
Another impact caused by the Corona virus in the agricultural sector is the disruption
of farmers' health. farmers are a relatively older population compared to the general working
population. the 2017 census of Agri actors shows the average age of agricultural operators to
be 58- at least 10 years older than work in some other sectors. unlike other industrial
workers agricultural operators 26% at the age of 65 years and over. data from other countries
that have done more extensive testing shows that covid-19 has a much higher severity for
those in their 60s and older who means that prevention and protection recommendations
from the CDC and state (and local public health experts are very important to the agricultural
population in the United States. because the immune of more vulnerable farmers and their
work that is always outside the home will facilitate covid-19 farmers, plus again the current
welfare of farmers is very low and fear of this event and the lack of work safety and
inadequate personal protective equipment as a result of the current demands by the health
industry that the supply of N95 respirators is very limited this concludes a very high concern
in the community agriculture.

III. Conclution
So it can be concluded that the corona virus has a large impact on the agricultural sector not
only in Indonesia but in the world including the price of agricultural commodities has
increased, the demand for drones for agriculture has risen, the health of vulnerable farmers
and so on. against the spread of the Corona virus.
