One of agriculture subsector is food crop whereas paddy, corn, and soybean are food crop commodities that have important and stategic roles in development.

This research employs secondary data. Secondary data used West Java Input-Output Table 2010. Secondary data analysis applies input output anaylisis to answer objective of this research among output structure analysis, gross added value structure analysis, linkage analysis, final demand impact analysis. The results showed that the food crop’s output structure and gross value added structure tends to low. Food crop also does not show strong linkage with its upstream sectors and downstream sectors.
