Abstract

Asahan Regency is a major oil palm production center in North Sumatra Province, showing a continuous increase in planted area and production that significantly shapes the regional agricultural economy. This study aims to analyze farm income of smallholder oil palm farming in Asahan Regency. The research was conducted purposively across three sub-districts, utilizing a multistage sampling method combined with proportional quota sampling to select 130 respondents. The economic results showed that smallholder oil palm farming is highly profitable, with an average net income of IDR 143,907,718 per year. To optimize regional economic growth and farmers' welfare, local governments should implement price controls on agricultural inputs and strengthen credit access to lower production costs.
