<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>

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.

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.

The green supply chain (GSC) can effectively reduce the waste of resources and avoid environmental pollution. For a closed-loop supply chain network consisting of multiple manufacturers, multiple retailers, and multiple consumer and recycling markets, we assume that retailers are responsible for the recycling of used products, manufacturers use raw materials to produce new products and recycled products for remanufacturing, and government departments subsidize all manufacturers and retailers for GSC technology investment. Then, the equilibrium conditions of manufacturers, retailers, demand markets, and recycling markets are obtained by using the variational inequality method, complementarity theorem, and Nash equilibrium theory, and the variational inequality model of the closed-loop supply chain network multiphase equilibrium is established. Based on numerical simulation, the optimal technology investment decision of green supply chain under different government subsidy rates, and the influence of market structure and enterprise cost asymmetry on the equilibrium solution of supply chain network are analyzed. The results show that government subsidies can effectively promote enterprises to upgrade their level of GSC technology investment. The intensification of enterprise competition and the asymmetry of enterprise costs will affect the composition of enterprise profits and the allocation of profits between enterprises, and the former will weaken the effect of government subsidies.

The oil palm plantation can be found throughout West Africa and palm oil has contributed significantly towards the Nigerian exports. However, the palm oil industry in Nigeria was declining to 36.4% in 1969 and 13.2% in 1974 in spite of being the largest global exporting country at the beginning of 20th Century. Since then, domestic consumption has increased, slow growth in palm oil production and low output was delivered. The equipment of production is considered obsolete, the plantations are aging, the technology access is very little, and financing is insufficient. This indicated a threat and inefficiency of Nigerian palm oil industries to cater for the needs of people regardless of the increase in oil demand locally as the  palm kernel oil is becoming important food and raw materials. Due to this problem, Nigeria remained to receive palm oil from Malaysia even though the seedlings was originated from Nigeria. Other large importers include from Benin, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Togo. This issue has caused Palm oil production in Nigeria to be more expensive and not competitive if compared to other countries like Malaysia and Indonesia. Hence, the objective of this paper explores the challenges facing palm oil industry in Nigeria using qualitative data through document and thematic analysis. The semi-structured interview was analysed by utilizing Atlas ti 8 software. The findings of the paper shows that there are challenges facing palm oil industry in Nigeria such as lack of good planting materials, poor funding, improper milling and lack of technology. From this, it is confirmed that there are numerous challenges facing palm oil industry in Nigeria which requires aids from the government from allocation of huge amount of its budget to agriculture and establish better policies for the palm oil industry that will attract more public and private investment.

In many multi-stage manufacturing supply chains, transportation related costs are a significant portion of final product costs. It is often crucial for successful decision making approaches in multi-stage manufacturing supply chains to explicitly account for non-linear transportation costs. In this article, we have explored this problem by considering a Two-Stage Production-Transportation (TSPT). A twostage supply chain that faces a deterministic stream of external demands for a single product is considered. A finite supply of raw materials, and finite production at stage one has been assumed. Items are manufactured at stage one and transported to stage two, where the storage capacity of the warehouses is limited. Packaging is completed at stage two (that is, value is added to each item, but no new items are created), and the finished goods inventories are stored which is used to meet the final demand of customers. During each period, the optimized production levels in stage one, as well as transportation levels between stage one and stage two and routing structure from the production plant to warehouses and then to customers, must be determined. The authors consider “different cost structures,” for both manufacturing and transportation. This TSPT model with capacity constraint at both stages is optimized using Genetic Algorithms (GA) and the results obtained are compared with the results of other optimization techniques of complete enumeration, LINDO, and CPLEX.

Reliability of supply chain networks is an important issue affecting customer satisfaction and profitability of organizations. However, occurrence of disruptions such as flood, earthquake and fire could ruin performance of supply chains. Uncertainty of parameters is another important factor that could lower quality of long-term plans of companies. Hence, uncertainty of parameters and disruption strike are important issues adversely influencing reliability of networks. Also, responsiveness of supply chains is a significant matter that should be considered carefully while designing distribution networks. Responsiveness could increase customer loyalty and satisfaction that could result in increasing market share of companies and their long-term planned benefit. Regarding alluded matters, the aim of this paper is designing a reliable forward-reverse supply chain network that minimizes total costs of network design along with maximization of total responsiveness of distribution network. Extended closed-loop network is capable of considering environmental issues by caring about end-of-life products. Designing reverse supply chain network aside with forward ones could decrease bad environmental impact of end-of-life products. Notably, to cope with adverse effects of disruptions, a scenario-based approach is suggested that enables considering partial and complete disruption of capacity of facilities. Additionally, an effective possibilistic programming method is applied to appropriately control uncertainty of parameters. As quality of raw materials is important to produce high-quality products, minimum acceptable quality level of raw materials is considered in extended model to maximize customer satisfaction. Finally, it should be noted that designed test problems show appropriate performance of suggested model and its applicability in real world case studies. Extended model is solved regarding different risk-aversion levels and sensitivity analysis is performed for different parameters of network design that shows effectual performance of proposed model.

The problem faced by the palm oil industry today is the instability of the Crude Palm Oil (CPO) yield.  The condition of Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) starting from the time of harvesting to transporting to the factory, including during stockpiling at the palm oil mill, is an influential factor affecting the yield of CPO.  This study aimed to find the factors causing instability of CPO yield in the palm oil industry.  I-MR control maps and fishbone diagrams were used to analyze the factors that cause low CPO yields.  From the data analysis for three years, the evidence of CPO yield was not statistically controlled.  The causative factor of CPO yield instability included the quality of raw materials, production equipment, character of workers, and environmental conditions, with the dominating factor was the low quality of raw materials.
