Market behavior indicates correlation values 0523 and 0515 transmission elasticity analysis. Appearance market views on marketing margin is relatively large and is dominated by the great results and uneven. Apart from it can be seen also from the uneven distribution margin, the share price received by farmers is still relatively low and the ratio of benefits and costs to farmers is still low. In addition, the bargaining power of farmers is weak because prices are determined unilaterally by traders, especially on the channel I and channel II while the third channel is relatively better because of the level of efficiency is lowe

Prospek dan Tantangan Petani Kelapa Sawit Swadaya di Desa Air Hitam Kecamatan Ukui Kabupaten Pelalawan dalam Menghadapi Sertifikasi ISPO

Increasing demand for palm oil and palm oil derivative products has triggered demand for oil palm fruit. This phenomena has been responded by Indonesian oil palm growers by increasing oil palm production through land expansi on. Land expansion has been claimed as the source of deforestation, land degradation, biodiversity loss, greenhouse gas emission, and land conflicts. The Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil has been established to promote sustainable oil palm production. However, the implementation of the certification program face various problem, especially at the smallholder levels. The objective of this study is to analyze the performance of independent oil palm smallholders, to assess the application of good agricultural practices in relation with the ISPO standards and to analyses prospects and chalenges toward certification ISPO. The study use agribusiness income analyses, scaling method to measure the smallholders practices based on the ISPO standard and descriptive method to analyze prospects and chalenges faced by smallholders to obtain ISPO certification. The result shows that the oil palm smallholder profits on average are above the regional wage standard. However, the smallholders compliance to the ISPO standards is only 43.5%. Certification ISPO would promote better acces to independent smalholder in market acces, financial acces and endorse sustainable production of oil palm. However, independent oil palm smallholers face various chalenges to obtain certificate of ISPO. This figure shows that there will be lots of effort to be done to get the ISPO certification

Analisis Efisiensi Produksi Usahatani Kelapa di Kecamatan Pulau Burung Kabupaten Indragiri Hilir

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis efisiensi produksi USAhatani kelapa. Pada penelitian digunakan metode Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), yang merupakan metode non parametrik berbasis pada Linear Programming. Hasil survei menunjukkan bahwa USAhatani kelapa di Kecamatan Pulau Burung belum menggunakan teknik budidaya sesuai standar. Sebagian besar USAhatani kelapa tidak menggunakan pupuk dan pestisida. Begitu juga dengan aktivitas pemeliharaan tanaman relatif tidak dilakukan dengan baik, seperti pembersihan lahan dan pembumbunan. Aktivitas USAhatani yang aktif dilakukan hanyalah pemanenan dan penanganan pasca panen. Berdasarkan analisis efisiensi produksi dapat disimpulkan bahwa: Pertama, sebagian besar USAhatani kelapa tidak efisien secara teknis, ditunjukkan oleh penggunaan tenaga kerja yang sudah melebihi dari kapasitas yang seharusnya. Kedua, sebagian besar USAhatani kelapa juga tidak efisien secara alokatif, ditunjukkan oleh harga input yang dibayar petani lebih besar dari harga output yang mereka terima. Ketiga, sebagian besar USAhatani kelapa yang tidak efisien secara teknis dan alokatif, mengindikasikan sebagian besar USAhatani kelapa tidak efisien secara ekonomi. Untuk mewujudkan USAhatani kelapa yang efisien secara ekonomi, maka perlu intervensi pemerintah untuk memotivasi petani agar melakukan USAhatani kelapa sesuai dengan rekomendasi teknik budidaya kelapa. Disamping itu perlu upaya pengendalian harga input dan peningkatan harga output. Mengingat struktur pasar yang bersifat monopsoni mengakibatkan harga kelapa yang diterima petani lebih rendah dari yang seharusnya

All oil palm growers have to comply with the Principle and Criteria of RSPO to be included in the global market. However, the smallholders are the most vulnerable party to meet the standard because of their limited access to various inputs, finance, and information. Certification is a new challenge for smallholders in a global oil palm supply chain. The objective of this study is to analyse farmers' perception on RSPO certification.

Finally, the scheme smallholders applied good agricultural practices more than the independent smallholders

Studi Komparatif Perkebunan Kelapa Sawit Rakyat Pola Plasma dan Pola Swadaya dalam Menghadapi Sertifikasi Rspo

In the last decade, there has been a spate of interest in how to reduce negative impacts of rapid oil palm plantation expansion caused by increasing demand for crude palm oil and fresh fruit bunches. Some International institutions proposed a certification program to ensure a sustainable oil palm production. However, certification become a huge challenge for oil palm smallholders. There are some barriers that the farmers face in accesing inputs, financial and marketing. The purpose of the present study was to analyse oil palm smallholders' performance and challenges toward certification issues in palm oil supply chain. A survey was conducted to collect data in two types of smallholders, i.e. scheme and independent smallholders. The number of samples selected from the population is 150 samples consist of 70 independent smallholders' samples and 80 scheme smallholders' samples. The study assessed the existing performance of the smallholders plantation including farm income, oil palm productivity, and best practices in oil palm production. The study used household income analyses, comparative analyses, and assessment on the application of RSPO standards. The result shows that the performance of scheme smallholders are better than the Independent smallholders. There would be an increasing farm costs to comply with the RSPO standard. However, there would be no guarantte on premius price
