Palm oil is one of Indonesia's sources of foreign exchange, derived from government, private, and smallholder plantations. However, palm oil production from smallholder plantations is relatively poor due to low-quality seeds, non-standard technical culture, low soil fertility, and a lack of attention to the topography and slope of the ground during planting. Therefore, this research aims to characterize the growth and production of oil palm based on soil and plant nutrient content on various land slopes. The research was conducted on an oil palm plantation in Baru Village, Siak Hulu District, Kampar Regency, Riau Province, Indonesia. Oil palm plants have been in production for seven years. The methods used in this research are survey methods, observation, and laboratory analysis. The research design used a non-factorial randomized block design. The research factor is the land slope, with three treatment levels consisting of flat land (0–8%), land slope 8–18%, and land slope 18–28%. The parameters observed in this research include land topographic characteristics, physical and chemical properties of soil, plant nutrient content, and agronomic characteristics of oil palm plants. The observation results showed that trunk circumference, number of fruit bunches per tree, and weight of bunches per tree gave better results on a slope of 8–18%. This is due to soil conservation measures in the form of rather deep depressions around the plant plates. However, the P and K nutrient levels of oil palm plants in this research area are included in the deficiency category. As a result, this research can help make decisions about fertilizer management and land usage in oil palm plantation areas with sloping topography.

The protected forest area managed by Perum Perhutani in Sukalaksana village is dominated by pine trees (Pinus merkusii) and rasamala trees (Altingia excelsa). Coffee farmers in Sukalaksana village grow arabica coffee using an agroforestry system under pine and rasamala stands within the framework of joint forest management. So that the arabica coffee commodity can have optimal economic value, coffee farmers in Sukalaksana village need to observe the productivity of arabica coffee plants. The research location is in the protected forest area of Sukalaksana village, Talegong district, Garut Regency. The object of observation was the soil in coffee plantations, Timtim varieties of arabica coffee plants, planted using an agroforestry system with rasamala trees and pine trees as shade. Data were analyzed descriptively using an uncorrelated t-test and linear regression analysis. Descriptively, there is no difference in the fertility level of coffee planting soil on land shaded by rasamala and land shaded by pine. The productivity of coffee plants under the rasamala shade is higher than that of coffee plants under the pine shade. This is caused by significant differences in the branch-free bole height of shade trees. The rasamala shade has its first crown branch, which is higher than the pine shade.

Several factors, including the less-than-optimal altitude of Arabica coffee planting influence the low productivity of Arabica coffee in Temanggung Regency. The lack of rejuvenation of production plants means that old coffee plants have low productivity; apart from these two factors, farmers do not have good plant management skills. This research further examines the influence of altitude on Arabica coffee production. This research was carried out in Temanggung Regency, with the sub-districts that were the sample for this research being Ngadirejo District, with an altitude range of 900-1150 m asl, Parakan District, with an altitude range of 1150-1400 m asl, and Kledung District with an altitude range of more than 1400 m asl. The sampling method employed in this study is a purposive sampling technique; the researcher directly determines the location and source of research information. A total of 28 participants responded to this study, with an assessment sample taken of 5% of the population of Arabica coffee plantations that bear fruit. The analysis used the linear regression method of a fixed variable, namely height, and independent variables, namely production, productivity, and evaluation, with a significance level of 5%. The research results show that altitude does influence productivity. If altitude increases, productivity will also increase.

Kajian Keberhasilan Implementasi Kebijakan Online Single Submission Risk Based Approach (OSS-RBA) di DPMPTSP Kabupaten Ketapang pada Perusahaan Perkebunan

Online Single Submission Risk Based Approach (OSS-RBA) is a risk-based business licensing service system that is carried out online. It is important to know about the application of the OSS-RBA Policy because it relates to the country's national achievements in simplifying the business licensing process and attracting foreign investors. The plantation business sector, especially oil palm, is important to pay attention to. The high contribution of the country's foreign exchange originating from this industry is one of the reasons the government has made the business licensing process smooth. For this reason, this research aims to measure the level of success in implementing the OSS-RBA Policy in the Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Service (DPMPTSP) Ketapang Regency, especially in plantation companies. This research uses a mixed method with purposive sampling. In this study, respondents were divided into two groups, specifically 4 respondents from the policy implementer and 35 respondents from the oil palm plantation company. The George Edward III Policy Implementation Model used theory, which determined four indicators that influence implementation: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The research on communication indicators showed that there had been a clear and consistent transmission of information from policymakers to policy implementers and business actors. Meanwhile, equipment and authority resources have been fulfilled in the resource indicators. For disposition, licensing services have been provided optimally. Finally, regarding bureaucratic structure indicators, DPMPTSP Ketapang Regency has done SOPs for services and licensing activities.

In oil palm growth, planting density has a sustainable impact on its productivity. To enhance the long-term growth and production yield of oil palm, it is crucial to consider the establishment of appropriate planting densities during the initial planting phase. This research explores the relationship between planting density and productivity, highlighting the importance of determining optimal plant densities for optimal yields. The study was conducted at the Muara Tawang Estate (MTNE) in Kapuas Hulu Regency, West Kalimantan Province. Two blocks of oil palm land with three different planting densities (130, 136, and 143 plants per hectare) were observed to understand the relationship between planting density and agronomic characteristics. Measurements were taken on plant height, frond length, petiole width, number of male and female flowers, and sex ratio. The analysis unveiled consistent trends in oil palm production, which varied based on planting density. Planting densities of 130 and 136 showed superior production trends compared to 143, with 136 demonstrating production increases ranging from 19.8% to 29.8% relative to density 143, alongside enhancements in plant height and frond length by 4.6% and 5.4%, respectively. Additionally, petiole thickness and width were notably lower in density 143, experiencing reductions of 8.0% and 11.0%, respectively, compared to density 136, while the sex ratio exhibited a similar pattern, declining by 34.0% in density 143 compared to 136. This highlights the importance of determining appropriate planting densities to enhance oil palm productivity.

The post-harvest coffee process is vital in determining the quality and quantity of coffee production. Problems that often occur in the post-harvest coffee process are incomplete or overcooked fermentation, improper drying process, high water content, improper roasting process, and inappropriate use of resources. For this reason, it is important to carry out proper processing in the post-harvest coffee process so that the quality of the coffee can be optimal. This research aims to analyze the post-harvest process of robusta coffee and identify post-harvest coffee facilities and infrastructure at P4S Kopi Gunung Ikamaja. The types of data used are primary data and secondary data. The data collection methods used in this research are expert interviews and active participation observation. The results of the study show that there are post-harvest coffee processes that do not comply with the provisions for post-harvest processing according to Minister of Agriculture Regulation Number 52/Permentan/OT.140/9/2012. In natural processing processes, those that are appropriate are the sorting, drying, horn stripping, roasting, and fine grinding stages, while those that are not appropriate are the packaging process. Honey process processing is in accordance with Minister of Agriculture Regulation Number 52/Permentan/OT.140/9/2012. The full wash process is not by Agriculture Ministerial Decree Number 52/Permentan/OT.140/9/2012 at the fermentation stage. Facilities and infrastructure based on building location are not yet appropriate; however, based on tools and machines and based on containers and packaging, they are by the provisions of Minister of Agriculture Number 52/Permentan/OT.140/9/2012.
