  • Oil Palm Expansion Among Indonesian Smallholders – Adoption, Welfare Implications and Agronomic Challenges
    Oil palm expansion among Indonesian smallholders – adoption, welfare implications and agronomic challenges Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades der Fakultät für Agrarwissenschaften der Georg-August-Universität Göttingen vorgelegt von Michael Andreas Euler geboren in Bad Kreuznach Göttingen, März 2015 D 7 1. Referent: Prof. Dr. Matin Qaim 2. Korreferent: Prof. Dr. Bernhard Brümmer Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 13.05.2015 Summary III SUMMARY Oil palm has become one of the most rapidly expanding crops throughout the humid tropics. Over the last two decades, the area under oil palm has almost tripled and its production more than quadrupled. This development is mainly attributed to the rising demand for vegetable oils and biofuels, favorable government policies in producer countries, as well as oil palm´s superior production potential and profitability compared to alternative land uses. Over 85% of the world´s palm oil production originates from Indonesia and Malaysia, which offer favorable agro-ecological growing conditions with relative abundance of cultivable land and agricultural labor. While the early expansion of oil palm was mainly driven by large scale private sector plantations, the more recent expansion of oil palm is largely driven by smallholder farmers. The first oil palm smallholders participated in government-supported out-grower schemes. Whereas such schemes still exist, most of the oil palm growth among smallholders is now due to independent adoption. At present, smallholders account for 41% of the total oil palm area and for 36% of the total fresh fruit bunch (FFB) production in Indonesia. If current trends continue, smallholders are expected to dominate the Indonesian palm oil sector in the near future.

  • Analysis of Rubber Price Differences in Jambi Province Mirawati Yanita, 1*, Ernawati Hamid2, Zulkifli Alamsyah3
    Advances in Engineering Research, volume 205 Proceedings of the 3rd Green Development International Conference (GDIC 2020) Analysis of Rubber Price Differences in Jambi Province Mirawati Yanita, 1*, ErnawatI Hamid2, Zulkifli Alamsyah3 1 Agribusiness Department, Agricultural Faculty Universitas Jambi 2 3 Magister Agribusiness, Universitas Jambi *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Rubber is the most valuable export crop produced by small scale agriculture and plays a crucial role in inclusive economic development. Rubber becomes very close to the farmers because of cultivation and processing techniques and provides economic value directly. Jambi Province also one of the third rubber producers in Indonesia. Although rubber plays an essential role as a source of farmers' income, they always get low prices and are different from other regions in the Jambi province. This research aims to describe the rubber marketing pattern from farmers to the Crumb rubber factory in Jambi Province. Secondly, it aims to analyse the rubber price differences in Jambi Province. The survey method was used at the Region with the highest price in Sarolangun District and the lowest price in Muaro Jambi District. The data collected were primary and secondary sources. The result showed that the pattern of rubber marketing in regions with low and high rubber prices has three marketing channels, but there are only high prices. Marketing institutions involved in marketing rubber produced by farmers are middleman, wholesalers, and crumb rubber factories, where efficient marketing channels are the shortest channel, both in areas with high and low prices. The high difference in rubber prices between the two districts is the difference in the quality of rubber materials, the marketing mechanism, and the frequency of rubber sales.

Abstract. Boundary dispute is a new phenomenon that occurred in the era of regional autonomy followed by the expansion of the region. One of them occurred between Kepulauan Riau and Jambi Provinces related to Berhala Island ownership. Settlement of disputes between these two provinces took quite a long time and also caused tensions between two provinces. Actually, the government through the Ministry of Home Affairs has issued a regulation to solve the boundary problem of this area namely the Minister of Home Affairs Regulation No.1 in 2006 and No. 76 in 2012 on Guidelines for Confirmation of the Boundaries, however, is still less effective because although it has been done in such a way the party who feels aggrieved still take another way that is by testing the legislation to the Supreme Court or Mahkamah Konstitusional (Constitutional Court). An example is the boundary dispute between Kepulauan Riau and Jambi Province which was resolved through the examination of legislation to the Supreme Court and the Constitutional Court. In the case, there were 3 decisions, namely Supreme Court Decision No.49P/HUM/2011, Decision of the Constitutional Court No. 32/PUU-X/2012 and the decision of the Constitutional Court No. 62/PUU-X/2012.
