Abstract

This study aims to identify the leading sectors that exist in Central Java, and then those sectors are identified which sectors have export competitiveness. This study uses GRDP data on the basis of Constant 2010 Prices. The data in this study uses secondary data from the data www.bps.go.id and sumut.bps.go.id. Langkat Regency in 2017 The analysis method used in this study is the analysis of Location Quotient (LQ), Concentration Index (CI), Specialization Index (SI), Location Index (LI), and Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA).Results of Location Quotient analysis of commodity plantation base is Kec. Bahorok (Rubber Commodity, Cinnamon, Areca Palm, Aren), Kec. Serapit (Rubber, Cocoa, Areca, Pecan) Commodity, Kec. Salapian (Rubber, Coffee, Cinnamon, Candlenut, Aren) Commodity, District Kutambaru (Rubber, Cocoa, Areca, Pecan) Commodity, Kec. Sei Bingai (Commodity of Palm Oil, Cocoa, Coffee, Areca Palm, Pecan, Kapuk, Aren), Kec. Kuala (Rubber, Cocoa, Coffee, Areca Nut, Pecan, Kapuk, Aren) Commodity, Kec. Binjai (Oil Palm Commodity, Kapuk, Aren), Kec. Stabat (Commodity Cocoa, Pinang, Sugar Cane, Kapuk, Wampu Subdistrict (Palm Oil, Cocoa, Areca Palm), Batang Serangan District (Rubber Commodity, Palm Oil, Cinnamon, Kemiri, Kapuk), P Tualang Subdistrict (Rubber Commodity , Cocoa, Areca Palm, Sugar Cane, Pepper), Hinai District (Palm Oil, Cocoa, Kapuk, Aren), Secanggang District (Palm Oil, Cocoa, Areca Palm, Sugar Cane, Pepper), Tanjung Pura District (Palm Oil Commodity , Cocoa, Pinang, Aren), Gebang District (Palm Oil, Cocoa, Pinang, Aren), Sei Lepan District (Rubber Commodity, Cocoa, Kapuk, Aren), West Brandan District (Palm Oil Commodity, Palm Sugar), Besitang Subdistrict (Palm Oil Commodity, Palm Sugar), Pangkalan Susu Subdistrict (Palm Oil, Cocoa, Pinang, Aren) Commodity, Pematang Jaya District (Palm Oil Commodity, Cocoa).The sum of all the differences is positive 1. The Specialization Index (SI) is 1/100 = 0.1, this value does not show significant differences in distribution for each sector. While the total positive difference is 8.3, the Location Index (LI) = 8.3 / 100 = 0.083. Based on the calculation of the Location Index (LI) = 0, the distribution / distribution in the area for the sector is the same as the distribution of the "reference variable". Then it is relatively balanced. Based on the table above, the calculation of the RCA Index is if the value of an RCA of a commodity is more than one (RCA> 1), the commodities of Rubber Tobacco and Gum in North Sumatra Province have competitiveness above the average of exports of Indonesian Rubber Tobacco and Sap. If the RCA value is less than one (RCA <1), the competitiveness of North Sumatra Province's coffee commodity exports do not have competitiveness against commodity exports of Indonesian Coffee.
