Integrated Program

<p>As a region with the largest oil palm plantations in Indonesia, Pelalawan Regency is highly potential to develop a program of oil palm-cattle integration. Pelalawan has implemented the program legitimated by Regent Decree Number KPTS./524/Disnak/2012/472 regarding Zoning Regulation on the development of Oil Palm-Cattle Integration. The program of oil palm-cattle integration itself has been the basis for the Decree of the Minister of Agriculture Number 105 Year 2014 regarding the Integration of Oil Palm Plantation and Beef Cattle Farming. Moreover, the integration system of oil palm-cattle gives a lot of benefit to farmers, for example the utilization of manure as organic fertilizers could reduce farmer’s expenses for chemical fertilizers and the cattle can be an asset for them. Products made from the integrated program are solid manure, liquid organic fertilizer, fodder, biogas, and beef. To improve the competitiveness of those activities, we can analyze the value chain which includes product design, inbound logistics, operations, outbound logistics, marketing, sales, services and supporting activities. By using a value chain analysis, this study aims to provide recommendations for strengthening programs which could be implemented to improve the value-added of the products.</p><p> </p><p>Keywords: oil palm-cattle integration, value chain, value-added, industrial cluster</p>

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) is of strategic importance to the Ghanaian economy. It is the second most important industrial crop after cocoa and is used widely in local food preparation as well as in industrial processing. In spite of its importance, however, oil palm has consistently underperformed since the early twentieth century. This paper conducts a value chain analysis of the crop, foregrounding the political economy factors that shape the performance of the sector. It draws on a combination of in-depth interviews conducted in March 2020 with a variety of value chain actors and a review of the secondary literature. Additionally, between late May and early June 2020, twelve further interviews were conducted as part of a rapid market survey to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the value chain.

Chilgoza pine forests offer a significant source of income for owners especially for smallholder farmers in southeastern Afghanistan. In 2019/2020 season, on the basis of kernel, from total global production of the pine nuts (17220 MT), only 9% (1500 MT) was produced in Afghanistan. Southeastern region of the country (Paktia, Paktika and Khost provinces) is a known and rich region of the pine nut where roughly 86% (37,785 hectare) of total forest lands exist and approximately 120600 families take directly advantage from Chilgoza products with 250-360 million US dollars income per year. Therefore, this study was conducted at southeastern region of Afghanistan during 2019-2020 to investigate the entire value chain of chilgoza pine, analyze production capacities and identify main producers and traders. This study was based on interviews, questionnaires, direct observation, and literature reviews. Analysis of community level surveys revealed if the current unsustainable value chain practices not altered will result in continued decline of existing chilgoza forest stands, will lags significantly behind its major global competitors in international market and will lose chilgoza (Black Gold) concept opportunity. The findings of the current study revealed that for better handling of chilgoza pine nut, the forest regeneration and entire value chain program will be effective resolution. Establishing modern chilgoza pine nut processing factories in remote areas needed to be balanced with road conditions, water and electricity are vital requisite and urgent need.

Abstract IntroductionMilk production in Ethiopia is done largely by the smallholder farmers in the high lands and in low land areas of the country. However, the Ethiopian dairy production and market systems face severe constraints like poor genetics, insufficient access to proper animal feed and poor management practices all contribute to the low productivity levels. Similarly, dairy producers and downstream actors in the value chains face many challenges in getting milk to market. Hence this study analyzes dairy products value chain. MethodsValue chain analysis framework and financial analysis were used. Result and conclusionThe dairy value chain is complex involving multiple actors and their interaction. The major direct actors include input suppliers, small holder farmers, village collectors, cooperatives, semi processors, hotel and cafés and consumers. Besides indirect actors such as supportive and regulatory service providers are also involved. Though all actors have positive profit margin, the largest share goes to hotel and cafés. The financial analysis along the entire value chain shows that Producing and marketing of dairy products is profitable and creates higher value added. Concerned body should improve access to services and collective actions to enhance local value additions and Smallholder milk producers must be organized into dairy cooperative groups and subsequently into dairy unions.

Semarang City Public Works Department is a state-owned enterprise that works in the area of public services in the city of Semarang. Most of the technological conditions in the Public Works Department are still in manual data management, which is hampering business processes from going well. Therefore this research was conducted to design an Information System at the Semarang City Public Works Department using the Enterprise Architecture Planning (EAP) method which includes a SWOT analysis and Value Chain analysis. The existing framework in the Enterprise Architecture Planning (EAP) method can help align the data architecture and application architecture to get the expected results, which is achieving the business objectives of the City of Semarang Public Works Department so that business functions can run by the desired business processes. This research resulted in several proposals for the development of Information Systems and Information Technology in organizations including the development of several applications in the next 5 years.

This research was taken in Ambon (Latuhalat and Laha) and in Central Maluku Regency (Waai) in May – July 2018. It was aimed at mapping the value chain of small pelagic fish in Ambon through: 1) mapping of product, financial and information flows and 2). analysis of percentage distribution of small pelagic fish caught. The data used in this study was primary and secondary data, and analyzed by using value chain analysis. The results show that small pelagic fish marketing chain in Ambon consisted of six models with five actors. Each chain is formed due to the conditions and situation of market, resulted by the influencing of catches of fishermen and traders' capital. The broker plays an important role in marketing small pelagic fish in the market and obtaining 10% of the fishermen's catch that can be distributed, both to retailers and cold storage. Fish caught by the fishermen is still fresh in general when arrives in the consumers, because the fishing area is not too far, the market distance with the production centers is also quite close and in general fishermen and traders have understood the importance of maintaining product quality. Even so, the role of the Government in providing marketing facilities and infrastructure is needed so that modern market conditions can be applied in marketing fresh fish in Ambon.
