Water shortage problems are increasing in many water-deficient areas. Most of the current research on multi-source combined water supplies depends on an overall generalization of regional water supply systems, which are seldom broken down into the detail required to address specific research objectives. This paper proposes the concept of a water treatment and distribution station (water station), and generalizes the water supply system into three modules: water supply source, water station, and water user. Based on a topological diagram of the water network (supply source–station–user), a refined water resource allocation model was established. The model results can display, in detail, the water supply source, water supply quantity, water distribution engineering, and other information of all users in each water distribution area. This makes it possible to carry out a detailed analysis of the supply and demand of users, and to provide suggestions and theoretical guidance for regional water distribution implementation. Tianjin’s water resource allocation was selected as a case study, and a water resource allocation scheme for a multi-source, combined water supply, was simulated and discussed.

ABSTRAKKomoditas wortel telah lama menjadi andalan produksi salahsatu kelompok tani Katata yang beradadi Pangalengan, Jawa Barat. Produksinya memiliki kualitas dan kuantitas yang tidak hanya baikdalam pemenuhan lokal saja, namun juga terhadap pemenuhan Ekspor. Tujuan dari penelitian iniadalah untuk mendapatkan pengatahuan daya saing dan peluang ekspor dari dampak kebijakanpemerintah pada usahatani wortel di Kelompok Tani Katata. Penelitian dilakukan di Kelompok TaniKatata, Pangalengan, Kabupaten Bandung. Data dianalisis dengan Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM),untuk menghitung keunggulan komparatif, keunggulan kompetitif dan dampak kebijakan pemerintahdengan menggunakan harga aktual dan harga bayangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwapengusahaan wortel di Kelompok Tani Katata memiliki keunggulan kompetitif karena nilai PCRsebesar 0,062 atau PCR kurang dari satu (PCR < 1). Hal yang sama menunjukkan bahwa wortelmemiliki keunggulan komparatif dengan nilai DRC 0,060 atau DRC kurang dari satu (DRC < 1).Kebijakan pemerintah dinilai menghambat ekspor output dan adanya proteksi terhadap input lokaldibuktikan dengan nilai NPCO dan NPCI yang kurang dari satu. Secara keseluruhan kebijakanpemerintah yang berlaku saat ini masih belum mendukung dalam hal pengembangan danpeningkatan keunggulan komparatif dan keunggulan kompetitif pengusahaan komoditas wortel diKelompok Tani Katata.Kata kunci: daya saing, wortel, ekspor, Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM)ABSTRACTCarrot commodity has been each mainstay production belong to Katata’s farmer group inPangalengan, West Java since long time ago. Their production have good quality and quantitywhich have potential for locally and export. The main of this research is to know the competitivenessand impact of government policy of the commodities carrots (case study Katata, subdistrictPangalengan, county level Bandung).Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM) is the method to analyze data ofthis research to measure the comparative advantage, competitive advantage, and impact ofgovernment policy using actual price and estimation price.The result indicate that carrost in Katatahave a competitive advantage because PCR value of 0.062 or PCR of less than one (PCR < 1).Itsalso indicate that carrot has a comparative advantage with the value of the DRC 0.060 or DRC lessthan a (DRC < 1).The government policy is rated to inhibit the outpur export and protection againtslocale input by the value of an NPCO and NPCI is less than one.Overall the policy is still notsupporting development and improvement comparative advantage and competitive advantage forcarrot business in Katata.Keywords: competitiveness, carrots, export, Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM)

Demand Information

Under the current administrative system (AS) in China, the water resources governor allocates limited water resources to several users to realize the utility of water resources, leading to a principal–agent problem. The governor (referred to as the principal and she) wishes to maximize water resource allocation efficiency, while each user (referred to as the agent and he) only wishes to maximize his own quota. In addition, the governor cannot know water demand information exactly since it is the water users’ private information. Hence, this paper builds an ex ante improved bankruptcy allocation rule and an ex post verification and reward mechanism to improve water allocation efficiency from the governor’s perspective. In this mechanism, the governor allocates water among users based on an improved bankruptcy rule before the water is used up, verifies users’ information by various approaches, and poses a negative reward to them if their information is found to be false after the water is used up. Then, this mechanism is applied to Huangbai River Basin. Research results show that the improved allocation rule could motivate users to report demand information more honestly, and ex post verification could motivate water users to further report their true information, which, as a result, could improve the water allocation efficiency. Furthermore, this mechanism could be applied to the allocation of other resources.

Policy Analysis Matrix

The objective of this research was to analyze the economic impact of government intervention in the essential cereal crops for (Rice Buhooth1, and Synthetic genotype Baghdad3) by comparing the social price and private prices through adopting policy analysis matrix approach PAM and the derived parameters from it .The research was divided into two chapters; the first chapter was about field counting for the policy analysis matrix PAM and measuring the implications of the government intervention on the Rice Buhooth1. The second chapter was about explaining the field counting for policy analysis matrix PAM and measuring the implications of the government intervention impact on the second synthetic genotype Baghdad3.The research found a set of results, the most important result showed that the value of profitability coefficient was about 3.69, this indicates that the rice crop production system for the Rice Buhooth 1  takes advantage of the adopted government policy in that year, which means that there is governmental support for the product. In addition, domestic resource cost coefficient value which was about 0.72 indicates that there is comparative advantage for the Rice Buhooth 1  for the year 2012. The values of the nominal and effective protection coefficient were about 1.74 and 1.59 respectively; the value of the first factor indicates that there is governmental support for the domestic producer for the above, while the second factor indicates that the domestic producer will obtain greater returns in the investment of its resources in the existence of the government intervention from its absence. Regarding the Synthetic genotype Baghdad3, the value of profitability coefficient was about  1.75  which means that there is governmental support for the product. The domestic resource cost coefficient value was about 0.24 which indicates that there was comparative advantage for the mentioned above for the year 2012. The values of the nominal and effective protection coefficient were about 1.48 and 1.56 respectively; the value of the first factor indicates that there is governmental support for the domestic producer for the above, while the second factor indicates that the domestic producer will obtain greater returns in the investment of its resources in the existence of the government intervention from its absence. Finally, it is highly recommended that support should be increased for the varieties that the country has greater comparative advantage in order to improve the utilization of available resources and reduce wasted resources. Moreover, similar studies should be done in the future by other researchers to major cereal crops varieties at the country level in order to do comparison between them to set a mechanism for the government intervention policy in the main crop prices in the country which help both the local producer and agricultural investor in directing its resources properly.
