Abstract
This study used the Porter’s Diamond Model as the theoretical underpinning to examine the
competitiveness of Kelantan paddy industry. The model examined six (6) factors that were factor conditions,
demand conditions, farmers’ strategies and supporting industries, chances and government’s roles. A total of
344 farmers were involved in this study. The farmers were required to answer a set of questionnaires which
were adopted and customized from previous study. Partial least Square (PLS) SmartPLS M2 Version 3.0 was
used for data analysis. The result showed that only four variables were significant and able to explain the
competitiveness of paddy industry in Kelantan. They were factor conditions, demand conditions supporting
industries and chances.
