Abstract: The imposition of a 25 percent import tariff for cane sugar in Indonesia has rose a controversy. Sugar producers have persistently pressured the government of Indonesia to increase the tariff level to sufficiently protect domestic sugar industries. On the other hand, the government has not showed an indication to change the tariff level. This study was conducted to formulate import tariff levels as alternatives to solve the controversy. An alternative approach, called compromise approach, was used in this study. On the basis some objective factors, such as number of producers and consumers, price elasticities, and government policy bias, three alternatives of import tariff level, namely, neutral, bias to producer, and bias to consumer, are propused. The impacts of these import tarriff levels on government revenue, provenue price, and retail price are also discussed.
