Overview
• Bioeconomy
• Emerging value chains within the bio-economy
• Global value chains in the agriculture sector
• Coffee Value Chains
Bioeconomy
Introduction
• Bioeconomy is a major opportunity for regional and local communities.
• Agricultural growth is central to poverty reduction in rural areas, and one
opportunity for such growth lies in increasing exports of agricultural
products from poor countries to global markets.
• The potential of Indonesia to develop a bio-based economy based on local
resources remains largely untapped.
• The solution is to develop technology options or business models for local
deployment.
• Raising awareness activities, knowledge development (studies), clustering,
and networking are needed to support new bio-based value chains and
business models.
Definition of scope
• BioEconomy (BE): food and feed industries (agriculture, forestry,
horticulture, fisheries and aquaculture, plant and animal breeding,
the nutrition and beverage industry) + biobased economy
• BioBased Economy (BBE): non-food industries – chemical, material,
medicine, pulp+paper and wood industries + bioenergy (including
biorefineries)
• BioBased Industries (BBI): individual sectors of industries – food,
biochemical, biomaterial, biomedicine, pulp+paper and wood
processing
• BioENergy (BEN): electricity, heat, transportation biofuels, gaseous
and solid energy carriers

Bioeconomy Value Chain
Bioeconomy Value Chain
Complex value chains
• The conflicting pressures of differentiation and
interdependence in a supply chain:
• Actors have different opinions on problems and solution but no
one is in charge.
• The problems of coordinating supply and demand
• The issues of uncertainty and risk:
• Actors admit that they cannot solve the problem, or that they
can solve it only partially.
• Parameters of uncertainty include demand, supply, resource
capacity, production costs, exchange rates, transportation (lead
times and costs), duties, prices (product and raw-material), and
extreme events.
• The risks along the value chain, from input to output.
• Market failures
• Market failures arise when free markets fail to develop,
or when they fail to allocate resources efficiently
• Government failure
• This occurs when government intervention in the
economy causes an inefficient allocation of resources
and a decline in economic welfare.
• Bioeconomy, like many other industries, is interdependent in the complex value chains.
• A global supply chain network involves various factors related to internationalization, such as
tariffs, income tax legislation, transfer prices, government policies, trade barriers, and competition.
How to cooperate?
• interaction and negotiation
• Incentives to reach consensus
Responses to Complex Value Chains
• Understanding the different stages and complexity of the value chains and an
innovative, collaborative approach is required to ensure the building of resilient
value chains.
• In the highly volatile agriculture landscape, different countries can create industry
coalitions and partnerships to unlock their potential by leveraging their combined
agri-food market.
• Innovation and private sector involvement are crucial to improving the future
competitive position.
• The agri-food sectors can attract private investors with fair risk-sharing and
smarter allocations of capital, which in turn can foster innovation.
• Making a difference: policy options for agribusiness and poverty reduction
Major opportunities of the bioeconomy
• New business models for agriculture and forestry
• To tap the emerge of new business model, it needs to set clear goals
to catalyze private and public investment and enhance the
competitiveness in the agriculture sector.
• Value Chain Development offers a tool to deepen and widen value
chains, explore synergies between chain actors, facilitate connectivity
to the global markets, invest in science, technology and innovation,
and ultimately build resilience for the future of the agricultural sector.
Value Chain Solutions:
Development of Bio-based value chains and Acceleration of the
transition to a bio-based economy
• Building new value chains based on the development of sustainable biomass
collection and supply systems with increased productivity, and improved
utilisation of biomass feedstock (incl. co- and by-products), while unlocking
utilisation and valorisation of waste and lignocellulosic biomass.
Building new value
chains
• Bringing existing value chains to new levels, through optimized uses of
feedstock and industrial side-streams, and offering innovative added value
products to the market, thus creating a market pull and reinforcing the
competitiveness of EU agriculture and forest based industries.
Bringing existing value
chains to new levels
• Bringing technology to maturity through research and innovation, and
through upgrading and building demonstration and flagship biorefineries that
will process the biomass into a range of innovative biobased products.

Bio-based value chain
An industrial value chain is defined as stages of value creation by enterprises and other
organizations as part of the process of designing and delivering goods and services for their users.
VCA has been used in the bioeconomy sector for three purposes:
1. to try to understand the structure of the chain to assess whether it is operating effectively and
efficiently, from the perspective of the various interested or involved actors;
2. to calculate financial effects on actors in the chain, usually farmers and consumers, of improvements in
the chain; and
3. to assess the consequences on the chain of a shock or disruption to the system.
Multistakeholder decisions and the value added chain
A, B, and C are agents along the
value-added chain: each of them
expects a share from bio-based
added value. They negociate this
share with other egents as the total
value is limited by the market price.
Each agent has an attribute which is
its perception of fair share.

Global value chains in the agriculture sector
Bio-economy: Agriculture
• Ensure food security, enhance nutrition and improve health and enable job creation through
expansion and intensification of sustainable agricultural production and processing.
• Strategic projects:
• Crop/livestock improvement both for biotic and physical stresses associated with climate change (including
indigenous crops)
• Agro-processing initiatives
• An integrated food nutrition research program
• Animal vaccine capabilities
• Energy-crop initiatives
• Biocontrol and bio-fertilisers
• Aquaculture
• Soil conservation
• Water resource management
• Build high-value skills and capacities to enable agro-innovation
• Co-funding initiatives for innovation
Global value chains in the agrifood sector
• Global agricultural markets have become increasingly complex because of
concentration at all points in the value chain and the increasing scope and
complexity of food standards, particularly those relating to food safety.
• Therefore, realizing the potential benefits of agricultural export growth for
poverty reduction requires careful analysis of trends in global markets and
the policies that will unlock the potential for growth and poverty reduction.
• Trends in global agribusiness and their consequences for strategies to
eradicate poverty through increasing export growth are analysed using the
GVC perspective.
• This perspective analyses inter-firm linkages in global agribusiness, placing
agricultural production and processing in developing countries in the
context of the dynamics of the broader global agribusiness and agrifood
systems.
Main issues within the agriculture
Codification of knowledge in value chains
Actor (supplier) competence
The costs of governance
Power asymmetries
Concentration
• The value chain perspective has highlighted issues of codification of knowledge in value chains, supplier
competence, strategies to reduce the costs of governance, power asymmetries, and concentration.
• These issues are decisively affected by the two major trends in agribusiness value chains, namely the increasing
importance of standards and increasing concentration.
GVC analysis applied to agribusiness
• The metaphor of the “chain” highlights the fact that most goods and services are
produced by a sequence of activities which are carried out by multiple
enterprises.
• These types of linkages refer to “vertical coordination” or “supply chains” to
distinguish them from arm’s-length market relationships or the vertically-
integrated enterprise.
• Coordination through direct exchanges of information between firms is usually
referred to as “value chain governance”.
• GVC analysis then poses four questions about this governance:
1. Why does governance arise? [non-standard products/customization, performance risks]
2. Under what conditions is governance possible? [instructions, sanctions]
3. What different forms does governance take? [markets, networks, and hierarchy]
4. How do firms try to reduce the cost of governance? [the division of labour, coordination
power, market power, contractual agreements]
VC Governance
GVC analysis then poses four questions about this governance:
1. Why does governance arise?
• non-standard products/customization, performance risks
2. Under what conditions is governance possible?
• instructions, sanctions
3. What different forms does governance take?
• markets, networks, and hierarchy
4. How do firms try to reduce the cost of governance?
• the division of labour, coordination power, market power, contractual agreements
Standards
• Standards are agreed criteria by which a product or service’s
performance, its technical and physical characteristics, and/or the
process and conditions under which it has been produced or
delivered can be assessed.
• Standards operate at multiple points along the GVC and are created,
adopted, applied and verified by different actors.
• Standards impact in two particularly direct ways:
1. the extent and codification of information required to sustain transactions
2. their impact on supplier competence.

Standards from a GVC perspective:
Food safety and quality control in the fruit, vegetable, and fish supply chains
Source: “Global Value Chains and Production Networks: Prospects for Upgrading by Developing Countries”, by John Humphrey and Olga Memedovic (2006), UNIDO
The impact of standards upon information flows in value chains, and hence on value chain governance, takes two distinct forms.
1. Standards increase information requirements: process control
2. The level of competence required from suppliers
Concentration in agribusiness value chains
• The importance of increasing concentration relates to input supplier
concentration; production concentration; processing; and consumer
outlet concentration.
• In terms of the value chain, concentration matters for two reasons:
1. concentration at one point of a value chain, often leads to concentration at
other levels
2. concentration at particular points in the value chain creates oligopolies and
inequalities in market power.

Policy issues for developing country governments and
other agencies concerned with export agribusiness
1. ensuring the continued access of agribusiness producers to global
markets and supporting the competitiveness of the sector
2. increasing revenues from agribusiness, particularly through adding
value to exports
3. enhancing the poverty alleviation impact of export agribusiness.
