- Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the factors affecting productivity in oil palm farming. The study was conducted in Desa Air Hitam, Pondok Suguh District, Mukomuko Regency, Indonesia. Desa Air Hitam in Pondok Suguh District has an area of 10,165 ha (9.87%) of the total area of oil palm plantations in Mukomuko District. In order to increase the productivity of oil palm farming, the use of large production factors results in increased costs incurred by farmers and can have an impact on reducing the benefits they will receive. Productivity and increased use of production inputs can be detected by knowing which factors significantly influence the increase in palm oil production. The determination of the location of this research was carried out intentionally (purposive), because this area was once a transmigration settlement and has now turned into the majority of oil palm plantations. Respondents were oil palm farmers who own land from a population of 304 people, respondents were set at 20% of the total farmer population. 61 respondents were selected with the assumption that their conditions were almost the same. Primary data were collected using a questionnaire that contained all the variables measured in the study. Secondary data collected from; reports, and research results of several agencies related to this study. In analyzing the factors of production of oil palm farming, the Multiple Regression Analysis was used. The result of the study indicates, factor affecting oil palm productivity was land area, which has a very significant effect on the productivity of oil palm farming in Desa Air Hitam.
