Analysis of Leading Sector Clusters in Regencies / Cities in the Province of Yogyakarta Special Region for the Period 2017 - 2021

Abstract

Development in an area aims to address inequality – inequality that can increase poverty in the region. One of the things that can be done by local governments is to recognize the potential of the main sectors that are superior in their regions so that they can encourage and increase economic growth which ultimately improves the welfare of the community. This study aims to identify the leading sectors in the Regencies/Cities, Provinces of the Special Region of Yogyakarta by using secondary data, namely the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GDRP) production method for the period 2017 - 2021 obtained from the Central Regional Statistics Agency. The analysis used is the location quotient method and the regional specialization method. The results obtained are varied where each regency / city has its own superior sector. Kulonprogo Regency with Mining and Quarrying, Bantul Regency, Processing Industry sector, Gunungkidul Regency with Mining and Quarrying sector, Sleman Regency for Corporate Services sector and Yogyakarta City with Financial Services and Insurance sector. As for the analysis of regional specialties, there is no inter-district/city sector specialization. This is because the sector value between the Regency/City and the provincial sector value is close to zero.
