Recently, independent smallholders faced the crucial challenges of  certification requirements, i.e. The lack of farmers’ organization, the cost barrier; doesn't possess the mandatory legal documents; don't use appropriate best practices or keep records; and lack of skill and knowledge. Therefore, the understanding of the discrepancy between knowledge and competence was urged to overcome the critical issues in certification for achieving the sustainable development of palm oil production. The analyzed data using in-depth interviews of 150 respondents that is structured base for Indonesian sustainable palm oil (ISPO) with non-hierarchical clustering methods. The result proved that the largest discrepancy between knowledge and competence level was sustainable business improvement aspect, while, farmers’ organization and farm management aspect were the smallest in overall clusters. Thus, an affordable information intervention, extension and target groups through the required motivation for self-improvement and evaluate the pattern of information for  minimizing the gaps.

Abstract

Penelitian dilakukan di kabupaten perbatasan melalui wawancara mendalam terhadap 120 petani swadaya dalam kerangka Minyak Kelapa Sawit Berkelanjutan Indonesia (Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil/ISPO), mencakup aspek hukum, pengelolaan dan pemantauan lingkungan, organisasi petani dan aspek manajemen untuk mewujudkan kompetensi strategis menggunakan diagram sungai dan diagram tangga. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa target inisiatif kinerja kompetensi terkait aspek legalitas dan manajemen lingkungan serta aspek pengawasan adalah mempelajari dan menerima praktik pengetahuan secara bertahap dalam semua kelompok petani, termasuk pengetahuan terkait tindakan pencegahan dan pengendalian kebakaran dan peningkatan bisnis secara berkelanjutan. Selain itu, target inisiatif kinerja kompetensi terkait aspek pencegahan dan pengendalian kebakaran dan keanekaragaman hayati adalah menerima transfer pengetahuan. Namun, daerah yang memiliki kompetensi lebih tinggi atau kesenjangan kompetensi yang lebih rendah dapat menjadi penyedia penerima pengetahuan dengan mempertimbangkan adopsi teknologi dan metode motivasi yang sesuai. Oleh karena itu, upaya mengatasi pengetahuan dan kompetensi petani rendah atau kesenjangan yang tinggi antara pengetahuan dan kompetensi dilakukan dengan pendekatan menangkap pengetahuan dengan cara memastikan bahwa semua petani belajar dan dapat mengakses layanan dan inovasi; dan pendekatan berbagi pengetahuan melalui program pendidikan dan pelatihan, praktik budidaya yang tepat, sertifikasi, dan kemitraan dengan universitas, perusahaan, pemerintah dan masyarakat.

Abstract

Farmer institutions along with regulatory, normative, and cultural cognitive aspects have important roles in social cohesion to achieve the food security of independent palm smallholder farmer households. However, some dysfunctionalities and external challenges affect the structure of their institutions. This paper aims to find ways to change the behavior of independent palm smallholder farmers by identifying the internal and external factors of their behaviors in their institutions. The data were collected from 100 smallholders in West Kalimantan using Structural Equation Model (SEM). The results indicate that the internal factors do not influence farmers’ behavior because of lack of social influences on their relationships, exceptional characteristics of the region, and a mismatch between perceived risk sources and risk management strategies. Meanwhile, the external factors (the surrounding environment, institutional information, the extension roles, ISPO, reward, and family encouragement) show positive influences on farmers' behavior. Therefore, to optimize the behavioral changes of independent palm smallholders in their institutions, knowledge exchange is necessary through formal or informal communication networks. Also, they need to have the connections with institutional buyers and potential agro-processing entrepreneurs and the connection with appropriate formal saving schemes, and financial products in their value chains.
