THE CAPABILITY OF MILK COW BREEDERS IN SEN’S THEORETICAL STUDY
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
The condition of commodity the milk cow breeders have has not met the standard business feasibility. Meanwhile, to support livestock business, the breeder should utilize functional commodity in order to acquire opportunity/capability/ability to do. The development of milk cow breeding business has not been maximal. The breeders encounter capability deprivation due to the presence of regulation and business habit growing within society. If they encounter capability deprivation, the breeders would acquire capability difficultly. Sen theorized that if there an ability of functioning commodity, the capabilities (opportunities) can be achieved. Similarly, if an individual encounter capability deprivation, he/she will achieve the opportunities difficultly. Two exogenous variables (functional commodity, capability deprivation) and one endogenous variable (capability) will be examined using Sen’s theory. The effect was analyzed using regression test. The data for individual variables was obtained using questionnaire distributed to 375 respondents. The respondents were selected randomly from milk cow breeder population existing in three villages. The villages were selected using cluster sampling out of thirteen villages in Getasan Sub District, Semarang Regency, Central Java. The result of research showed that cow breeders had not been able to use commodity they had to achieve opportunity. The capability deprivation occurring among the breeders make them achieve the opportunity of supporting their business difficultly. The effect of breeders’ capability deprivation level on their capability was more dominant than their functional commodity level. Although the effect of their functional commodity level contributes slightly to their capability, the effect of these two variables was consistent with Sen’s theorization that commodity functioning was done in order to have ability to do/capability. Similarly, the effect of Breeders’ capability deprivation on their capability level was also consistent with Sen’s theorization that there is a correlation between capability deprivation and capability.
