“…Since the majority of materials published in this category are related to the review on the impacts on climate change in Indonesia, this paper examines deeper on those literature ( Figure 5). It is shown that the impact on crops production, mainly on rice has been the majority of those researches (Caruso et al, 285 2016;D'Arrigo et al, 2011;D'Arrigo and Wilson, 2008;Kawanishi and Mimura, 2015;Keil et al, 2009;Naylor et al, 2001;Sano et al, 2013;Shofiyati et al, 2014). This is strongly related to the examination of too much water which can cause flood Marfai et al, 2015Marfai et al, , 2014Muis et al, 2015;Neolaka, 2013Neolaka, , 2012Sarminingsih et al, 2014;Shrestha et al, 2014)or too little water which can or have caused drought in Indonesia (Aldrian and Djamil, 2008;D'Arrigo and Smerdon, 2008;D'Arrigo and Wilson, 2008;D'Arrigo et al, 2006;Keil et al, 290 2009;Keil et al, 2008).…”

Abstract. Indonesia is one of the most vulnerable countries from disasters and climate change. While there have been a proliferations of academic publications written on issues related to natural hazards, disasters and risk reduction, and climate change risk in Indonesia, there have not been any review done systematically to determine the progress, key topics discussed and which topics needed to be researched further. The author did a systematic literature review on related publications that 10 are indexed within SCOPUS database with the timeline from 1900 to 2016. The findings are outlined in two parts. The first part focuses on the research topics. It is found that the publications can be categorized into three major topics of (1) natural hazard, risks and disaster assessments (HRD), (2) disaster risk reduction (DRR), and (3) climate change risks, vulnerability, impacts and adaptation (CC). More than half are on HRD, focusing on volcanic eruption, tsunami and earthquake. Research on DRR focuses on governance, recovery and reconstruction, early warning systems. Those on CC are mainly on emission 15 reduction, forestry, governance, and impacts. The second part focuses on roles of Indonesian researchers and organizations in these researches. Findings show limited progress in research, publications and collaborations. International/ nonIndonesian authors dominate the number of researchers and only half of the publications are co-authored by Indonesians.Moreover, international collaborations took place only by limited Indonesian organizations. This could be contributed by limited experiences on collaborations, power play amongst researchers, lack of capacity for research, weak English academic 20 writings capacity, and lack of incentives for international collaborations and publications within the Indonesia higher education system.

“…To promote agricultural development and food security, and to mitigate risk against crop‐yield loss due to pests and disease outbreaks, earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, and droughts, the Ministry of Agriculture developed the pilot Asuransi Usaha Tani Padi (AUTP) insurance program for the planting season of 2012–2013 (Pasaribu and Sudijanto, ) . AUTP was an indemnity‐based crop insurance program given to a group of farmers (kelompok tani/POKTAN) in East Java and South Sumatra Provinces that covered risk resulting from pests, diseases, flood, and drought (Kawanishi and Mimura, ). Under AUTP, insurance claims were determined by measuring loss or damage in the field soon after the damage occurred, then the damage measured in the field was applied to the agreed sum insured for the crop (Bryla‐Tressler, )…”

This article analyzes the effect of multiperil crop insurance policy for risk-averse Indonesian rice farmers located in Tuban and Gresik Regencies of the East Java Province. Based on the model, comparative static analysis of a change in policy variables (coverage levels and premium subsidies) on input use through the coupling, wealth, and insurance effects are presented. The comparative static results are largely ambiguous and left as empirical questions. Consequently, the model is numerically simulated to quantify the effects of different coverage levels and subsidy rates on input use, expected net insurance payments, and certainty equivalents. The empirical analysis shows that MPCI crop insurance results in a decline in expected yield for coverage levels above about 82.5% for both regencies. Furthermore, higher subsidy rates amplify the reduction in input use and yield. Therefore, incomplete coverage with relatively low premium subsidies is the best policy to minimize the impact on input use and yield. However, from the farmers' perspective, the optimal policy combination results from the highest coverage level and subsidy, which offer the largest expected net insurance payments and certainty equivalent.

“…Research will be needed also to determine the best form of insurance to implement in regions where damaging floods might occur with increasing frequency. The compensation payments for damages claimed by farmers holding indemnity policies might easily exceed the premiums paid in some years, particularly if the premiums are subsidized by a government agency [151]. Weather index insurance might be preferable to indemnity insurance in some areas.…”

Managing Water and Soils to Achieve Adaptation and Reduce Methane Emissions and Arsenic Contamination in Asian Rice Production

Rice production is susceptible to damage from the changes in temperature and rainfall patterns, and in the frequency of major storm events that will accompany climate change. Deltaic areas, in which millions of farmers cultivate from one to three crops of rice per year, are susceptible also to the impacts of a rising sea level, submergence during major storm events, and saline intrusion into groundwater and surface water resources. In this paper, I review the current state of knowledge regarding the potential impacts of climate change on rice production and I describe adaptation measures that involve soil and water management. In many areas, farmers will need to modify crop choices, crop calendars, and soil and water management practices as they adapt to climate change. Adaptation measures at the local, regional, and international levels also will be helpful in moderating the potential impacts of climate change on aggregate rice production and on household food security in many countries. Some of the changes in soil and water management and other production practices that will be implemented in response to climate change also will reduce methane generation and release from rice fields. Some of the measures also will reduce the uptake of arsenic in rice plants, thus addressing an important public health issue in portions of South and Southeast Asia. Where feasible, replacing continuously flooded rice production with some form of aerobic rice production, will contribute to achieving adaptation objectives, while also reducing global warming potential and minimizing the risk of negative health impacts due to consumption of arsenic contaminated rice.
