The income level of smallholder farmers can only meet their daily needs due to the location's remote location and the difficulty of communication access. Based on this, the Government seeks to formulate policies that are expected to have a real impact on increasing the productivity of smallholdings and improving the welfare of farmers. One of the efforts made is the Primary Member Cooperative Credit (KKPA). The purpose of this research is to examine the impact of the partnership program at the Windu Nabatindo Lestari (WNL) company in the KKPA scheme, a program to improve the welfare of plasma farmers. The research method is descriptive analysis with a qualitative approach using purposive sampling. Research respondents were 60 plasma farmers. Data collection techniques include field observations, in-depth interviews with questionnaires, and analysis of company documents. The results showed an increase in the welfare of plasma farmers after the partnership program. The partnership program at the Windu Nabatindo Lestari (WNL) company under the KKPA scheme positively impacts the welfare of plasma farmers in Pundu Village, Cempaga Hulu District East Kotawaringin, Central Kalimantan. The frequency of the number of plasma farmers who experienced increased income before and after the KKPA program was 83.3%.

“…The current findings confirm that collecting CSR information contributes to CSR initiatives and constitutes a valuable asset (Gallardo-Vázquez & Sánchez-Hernández, 2014b), including the beneficial results that this strategy produces (Duff, 2017;Ghouri et al, 2019). Concurrently, the present findings confirm that the development of social and environmental initiatives contributes positively to CSR dissemination, which agrees with numerous authors' results (e.g., Brunton et al, 2017;Thijssens et al, 2015).…”

“…More recent studies have found the CSR information possessed by innovative companies whose leadership engage in behaviors focused on sustainability-as defined by interest groups-has become a key factor in generating greater confidence and legitimacy. These strategies have also generated more economic benefits (Duff, 2017;Ghouri, Akhtar, Shahbaz, & Shabbir, 2019). However, some SMEs (i.e., mostly family-owned) still do not have as much CSR information as large organizations, which prevents these SMEs from implementing CSR initiatives and puts these companies at a disadvantage (Cabeza-García, Sacristán-Navarro, & Gómez-Ansón, 2017; Steinhöfel, Galeitzke, Kohl, & Orth, 2019).…”

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategies have become an important research topic in recent years as they can generate numerous benefits for organizations, especially when an adequate market orientation (MO) has been defined. In this sense, several research questions arise: do companies have enough CSR information to implement appropriate strategies? Does the information that they have gathered allow them to define a complete set of CSR activities (response) based on the triple bottom line approach? And, once they have carried out their initiatives, do these companies ensure adequate dissemination of the results to stakeholders?. In order to answer the above questions, this study sought to examine companies’ CSR orientation from a MO perspective. Working with data on a sample of 165 firms in Spain, during January 15th and February 15th, 2017, structural equation modeling was used to test a set of research hypotheses. The results reveal an important link between information, response, and diffusion and help extend the MO strategy concept. CSR information has a positive, direct influence on the development of initiatives covering three dimensions (economic, social and environmental). In addition, a direct relationship exists between the development of social and environmental initiatives and CSR disclosure. This research’s findings contribute to the literature on interest groups and business sustainability. Also, they confirm that the development of social and environmental initiatives contributes positively to CSR dissemination and to the generation of competitive advantages. This way, collecting CSR information constitutes a valuable asset. With respect to the limitations of the study, the answers reflected each SME leader’s subjective opinion, the variables’ measurement was dealt with through reflective models using the PLS technique based on variance and only Spanish companies already oriented toward CSR participated in the study. Las estrategias de responsabilidad social corporativa (RSC) se han convertido en un tema de investigación importante en los últimos años, ya que pueden generar numerosos beneficios para las organizaciones, especialmente cuando se ha definido una orientación adecuada al mercado (OM). En este sentido, nos surgen varias preguntas de investigación: ¿disponen las empresas de suficiente información de RSC para implementar adecuadas estrategias? ¿la información que poseen les permite definir un conjunto de actividades de RSC (respuesta) basadas en el enfoque del triple bottom line? Y, una vez que han llevado a cabo sus iniciativas, ¿estas empresas aseguran una adecuada difusión de los resultados a los grupos de interés?. Con el fin de dar respuesta a las anteriores cuestiones, este estudio buscó examinar la orientación de la RSC de las empresas desde una perspectiva OM. Trabajando con datos de una muestra de 165 empresas en España, durante el período comprendido desde el 15 de enero al 15 de febrero de 2017, se utilizaron los modelos de ecuaciones estructurales para probar un conjunto de hipótesis de investigación. Los resultados revelan un vínculo importante entre la información, la respuesta y la difusión y ayudan a extender el concepto de estrategia de OM. La información de RSC tiene una influencia positiva y directa en el desarrollo de iniciativas que cubren las tres dimensiones (económica, social y medioambiental). Además, existe una relación directa entre el desarrollo de iniciativas sociales y ambientales y la divulgación de la RSC. Los hallazgos de esta investigación contribuyen a la literatura sobre grupos de interés y sostenibilidad empresarial. Además, confirman que el desarrollo de iniciativas sociales y ambientales contribuye positivamente a la difusión de la RSE y a la generación de ventajas competitivas. De esta manera, la recogida de información de RSE constituye un activo valioso. Con respecto a las limitaciones del estudio, las respuestas reflejaron la opinión subjetiva de cada líder de las Pymes, la medición de las variables se trató a través de modelos reflectivos utilizando la técnica PLS basada en la varianza y solo las empresas españolas ya orientadas hacia la RSE participaron en el estudio.

“…Their theoretical basis is the theory of social identity, the theory of change management and the theory of social exchange. When describing social innovation in most publications, the following main aspects are highlighted: first, the cooperation of companies in the development and implementation of social innovations, including the joint creation of a system of social values, as well as their role and contribution to the sustainable development of ecosystems [20]; second, taking into account the results of the implementation of social innovations in assessing the ongoing social changes and the results of the functioning of global value chains [26][27][28]; third, the formation of social partnership between all participants in innovation processes, including researchers introducing innovations of employees of enterprises, managers and other stakeholders [29].…”

In age of sustainable development, strategic innovations have become the most important factor in the adaptation of national economies to dynamic global changes, encompassing trade and economic relations between the leading and developing countries of the World. At the same time, the task of this study was to reveal the complex and contradictory role of strategic innovations in the development of national economies against the background of the transformation of global value chains (GVCs). Main methods for solving the problem were empirical methods of comparative and structural analysis, as well as econometrics. The study analyzed 44 countries classified by the World Bank in the group of countries with per capita incomes below and above the average, as well as with high income. Results of the calculations made it possible to establish a highly differentiated relationship between the share of products manufactured by foreign companies operating in the host countries, on the one hand, and indicators of the dynamics of foreign direct investment (the number of researchers engaged in R&D, the number of technical specialists involved in research and development (R&D), the cost of research and development in the territory of the host countries), on the other hand. This made it possible to determine the role of strategic innovation in the adaptation of national economies. The established dependencies expand the understanding of the role of strategic innovations in the formation and further development of global value chains and their significance in evolution: from process and product innovations of individual companies to the formation of global innovation ecosystems.
