The agricultural sector is an important sector in West Sumatra because more than 50% of the population works in the agricultural sector. West Sumatra is one of the provinces in Indonesia that has the best rice producing potential in Indonesia, but the large number of conversions of rice fields to other uses has caused the West Sumatra region to experience a decrease in land area from year to year. This study uses the Input-Output Analysis method, which is a form of inter-sectoral analysis by analyzing transactions of goods and services between sectors. The entries along the rows of the I-O table show the allocation of output produced by a sector to meet intermediate and final demand. This study aims to determine the backward linkages (Backward Linkage) and forward linkages (Forward Linkage) and determine the leading sectors (Key Seckor) of agriculture in West Sumatra. The results of this study: the leading agricultural sector, meaning the forward linkage and backward linkage values are >1. These sectors are rice,
corn, tuber crops, peanuts, legumes, rubber, oil palm, coffee, cinnamon, and chocolate

THE IMPACT OF INFLATION ON THE BUSINESS CYCLE AND ECONOMIC GROWTH: AN EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS

Tue, 17 Jun 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This paper investigates the complex relationship between inflation, business cycles, and economic growth, focusing on both theoretical and empirical perspectives. The primary aim is to understand how inflation impacts key economic variables such as investment, consumption, employment, and productivity and to identify effective policy responses. Specifically, the study’s objectives are to examine the mechanisms through which inflation affects the business cycle, quantify its impact on long-term economic growth, and evaluate policy strategies for managing
inflation’s adverse effects. Methodologically, we employ panel data analysis using econometric models across a sample of countries from 1990 to 2021. This approach allows for cross-country comparisons and controls for country-specific factors, providing robust estimates of inflation’s impact on GDP growth, unemployment, and investment. The findings indicate a statistically significant negative relationship between high inflation and GDP growth, especially when inflation rates exceed 10%. Additionally, inflation is shown to reduce investment levels and increase unemployment, aligning with Phillips curve implications in the short term and supporting inflation neutrality in the long run as expectations adjust. Theoretically, this study contributes to existing literature by confirming the threshold effect of inflation on growth, where moderate inflation may coexist with growth but high inflation disrupts economic stability. Methodologically, the use of panel regression models highlights the efficacy of country level fixed effects in capturing inflation’s diverse impacts across different economic contexts. Practically, the research underscores the importance of inflation-targeting frameworks, counter cyclical fiscal policies, and structural reforms to enhance resilience and support sustained economic growth. These insights offer valuable guidance for policymakers seeking to balance inflation control with economic stability.
