Downstream palm oil industry development through concept application of cluster in North Sumatra province is become the hope of government to increase added value and competitiveness of product, but whether this concept can boost the competitiveness of the palm oil industry, remains a challenge. This is mainly related to the diversity of actors in the supply chain industry and competition in a global market that include environmental aspects. Therefore, industry cluster analysis from perspective of the supply chain of palm oil processing industry to be interesting. This study uses a qualitative exploratory approach, and primary data obtained by in-depth interviews of actors in the supply chain of palm oil processing industry in North Sumatra province in 2013 up to 2015. The analysis showed that smallholder plantations have a considerable contribution in supplying raw materials Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) for palm oil processing industry, hence the existence of smallholder plantations can not be excluded in the development of downstream palm oil industry. Furthermore, the results of this study also indicate that they need to encourage the establishment of governance structures industry palm oil supply chain, improvement strategies, distribution, and justice so that the distribution of benefits for the actors in the supply chain can be awakened. In this regard, efforts to promote sustainable plantation industry business is still very necessary, especially to preserve biodiversity and benefit all actors in the supply chain of palm oil industry.

The palm oil processing industry in which produces Crude Palm Oil (CPO) generally uses boilers. The combustion process with a boiler will produce pollutants in the form of particulates (dust), and gases such as NO2 and SO2. There are two palm oil processing industries in Muaro Jambi District that use different fuels: coal and oil palm shell. The purpose of this study was to determine the ratio of SO2, NO2 and particulate concentration in industries that use coal and oil palm shell.  Primary data taken in the form of concentrations of SO2, NO2 and particulates also meteorological data. Secondary data taken in the form of map area, height and diameter of the boiler, and production capacity. Sampling time is in the morning, afternoon and evening which is repeated in 3 times. The results showed that the comparison of NO2 and SO2 concentrations produced from coal-fired boilers was higher than shell-fired boilers, but both were still below the quality standard. Particulate concentrations in the palm oil processing industry that use coal-fired boilers are above the quality standard, while shell-fired boilers still meet quality standards.

<p><em>Abstrak</em> - <strong>Masalah umum yang dihadapi dalam pengembangan agroindustri di Indonesia adalah bahwa potensinya belum sepenuhnya mampu diwujudkan secara berdaya-guna dan berhasil-guna karena keterbatasan sumberdaya permodalan, hambatan teknologi dan rendahnya efektivitas kelembagaan yang terkait. Juga terdapat ketimpangan antara sisi hulu dan hilir pada rantai nilainya. Untuk komoditas kelapa sawit keuntungan terbesar terdapat pada sisi hilir pada para pengusaha dan eksporter dan distributor produk turunannya seperti minyak goreng, olein, dll. jauh melebihi tingkat keuntungan para petani di sisi hulu. Sangat perlu dilakukan upaya penyetaraan tingkat keuntungan sepanjang jalur rantai pasok untuk menjamin kelangsungan hidupnya, karena seluruh aktor rantai pasok saling membutuhkan, dan runtuhnya salah-satu mata rantai karena rugi atau bangkrut akan meruntuhkan keseluruhan rantai pasok. Pada makalah ini penulis menyusun model matematis dari keuntungan pada jaringan rantai pasok kelapa sawit dengan pendekatan kesetaraan rasio benefit terhadap cost (=B/C) yang diuraikan oleh Tarigan pada disertasinya (2008). Kelayakan usaha mensyaratkan bahwa Rasio B/C harus &gt; 1, dan pada seluruh aktor rantai pasok nilai ini diupayakan setara dengan mengubah-ubah nilai harga beli bahan/produk atau biaya-biayanya.</strong></p><p><em><strong>Kata Kunci</strong> - Agroindustri, Kelapa Sawit, Rantai Pasok Distribusi, Rasio B/C.</em></p><p><em>Abstract</em> - <strong>The general problem in the development of agroindustry is that its potencial has not been fully utilized effectively and efficiently due to the constraints in the financial and technology resources, and institutional weaknesses. Another major problem is the financial imbalance between the supply, distributor, retailer and consumer sides. In the palm oil industry the highest profit margin enjoyed in the downstream of the chain, the producers, exporters, and distributors of products derivatives like frying oil, olein, etc, far exceeding the profit received by the farmers in the upstream. It is imperative to balance the profitability levels along the supply chain to ensure the survival and continuity of the chain, otherwise the whole chain will collapse if any of the dependent actors suffer losses or go bankrupt. In this paper the writer endeavour to develop the mathematical model of the profit in the palm oil supply chain network using the balancing of B/C ratio approach described by Tarigan in his dissertation (2008). Feasibility analysis of a project dictates that B/C ratio should be &gt; 1. To obtain a fair balance of profitability overall value of B/C ratio should be the same along the way. This may be achieved by adjusting the selling/buying prices of the raw materials or the costs and expenditures.</strong></p><p><em><strong>Keywords</strong> - Agroindustry, Palm Oil, Distribution Supply-Chain, B/C Ratio.</em></p>

The relatively weak competitiveness of agricultural-based processed products is the reason why Indonesia is known as an importer of manufactured food, because it is still an exporter of agricultural-based raw materials. The comparative advantage of primary products only relies on the abundance of natural resources and uneducated TK so that they are still dominated by raw products. In the era of globalization, free trade demands highly competitive processed products, to be able to meet the high quality requirements and global market competition. Using a qualitative descriptive method, this paper aims to comprehensively describe the importance of increasing quality and competitive processed food products, supported by institutional development related to processed products. The technology development program and investment through the development and improvement of the performance of the agricultural-based processing industry in rural areas is predicted to be able to become the "engine" of strong economic progress. As a solution for efficiency, effectiveness, continuity and continuity of the process of procuring raw materials, labor and financing (capital) for processed products, if the processing industry is around the raw materials produced (agriculture in rural areas). Development of the role of industrialization to increase the added value of products, including diverting primary agricultural products (raw materials) into processed products as an effort to reduce imports. The role of the institution functions in line with the development programs implemented to be able to drive rural industrialization, create jobs and increase income in rural areas.

Palm oil industry in Indonesia has been growing rapidly. But, unfortunately the growth is only effective on upstream industry with low value products, such that potential downstream value added are not explored proportionally. The government is therefore in the process of developing an appropriate policy to strengthen the national palm oil downstream industry. This paper proposes that an approriate policy for developing palm oil downstream industry could be derived from the maps of value chain and existing technology capability of the industry. The result recommends that government policy should emphasize on the supply of raw materials, infrastructure and utilities, as well as developing the missing value chain industry, especially ethoxylation and sulfonation.

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to develop a model that will explain the impact of government policies to the competitiveness of palm oil industry. The model involves two commodities in this industry, namely crude palm oil (CPO) and refined palm oil (RPO), each has different added value. Design/methodology/approach: The model built will define the behavior of government in controlling palm oil industry, and their interactions with macro-environment, in order to improve the competitiveness of the industry. Therefore the first step was to map the main activities in this industry using value chain analysis. After that a conceptual model was built, where the output of the model is competitiveness of the industry based on market share. The third step was model formulation. The model is then utilized to simulate the policy mix given by government in improving the competitiveness of Palm Oil Industry. Research limitations/implications: The model was developed using only some policies which give direct impact to the competitiveness of the industry. For macro environment input, only price is considered in this model. Practical implications: The model can simulate the output of the industry for various government policies mix given to the industry. Originality/value: This research develops a model that can represent the structure and relationship between industry, government and macro environment, using value chain analysis and hierarchical multilevel system approach.

Heriyanto et al, 2018. Analysis of the Production Factors of the People's Palm Oil According to the Land Typology in Indragiri Hilir Regency, Riau Province. JLSO 7(1): Palm oil commodities are one of the plantation sub-sector commodities that increase the income of farmers and the community, provide processing industry raw materials that create added value. The land cultivated by independent oil palm farmers consists of land land, tidal peatlands, coastal peatlands and coastal land. The difference in typology of this land will contribute to different production. The research aimed to analyze the oil palm production and the dominant factor affecting oil palm production according to the typology of land in Indragiri Hilir Riau Province. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and built multiple regression models with the dummy variable method of Ordinary Least Square (OLS). The results of the study showed that the production of oil palm cultivation on land is the highest compared to the typology of tidal peatland, coastal peat and coastal land. The dominant factors affecting palm oil production in Indragiri Hilir Regency were the amount of fertilizer use, labor, age of plants, herbicides and dummy typology of land. In order to obtain optimal production, this study recommended doing oil palm farming in accordance with the correct cultivation techniques in accordance with the characteristics of land typology. Besides that the use of balanced fertilizer (elements of N, P, and K) in accordance with the recommended needed to be applied.
