d management is important in future. (6)To investigate the socio-economic change under globalization, three types of in-depth field research were done in three agro-ecologically different areas in Malang District of East Java.
This field research examined to what extent and how those policy changes did have impacts on rural economy and social system. The field research was done in collaboration with two research institutions in Malang, i.e. ILETRI (Indonesian Legume and Tuber Crops Research Institute) and Faculty of Economics, Brawijaya University. Land institutions, labor practices and products market were investigated. These rural institutions with being transformed have coped with or absorbed the impacts of globalization, urbanization, industrialization and of various government policy reforms. Large scale agribusinesses such as feed companies have extended their impacts on rural economy. New demand of agricultural products induced the change of market structure. In such areas, new types of local traders came into being and have transformed marketing channels. Traditional rural institutions which have related to land and labor transaction have loosened their accompanied role of social safety net for the poor. The government needs to pay large attention on such separation between production mechanism and safety net mechanism in rural villages. Less
