Partnership Impact on Production and Income of Indonesia Rubber Farmers

Abstract

In Indonesia, many rubber farmers carry out partnership-based cooperation. Obviously, this activity gives benefits and impact for both parties. Regarding this idea, this research aimed to determine a partnership pattern found in rubber farmers, partnership impact on the production of rubber farmers in Indonesia, and partnership impact on rubber farmers’ income in Indonesia. The study used descriptive and analytical methods. Meanwhile, to determine the problems related to the partnership impact on production and income, the researchers used an independent t-test. However, owing to abnormalities in the test, this study used the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The result showed that the partnership pattern of rubber farmers in Indonesia was the KOA pattern. In terms of partnership impact on production, there was no significant difference between the production of non-partnered and partnered rubber farmers. Meanwhile, the income measure had a small difference between the two respondent farmers. Following this, rubber farmers should make partnerships due to high profits compared to non-partnership farmers. The bargaining power of farmers is better when they are in a cooperative system, so the price offered is better. This also makes the government’s program successful related to the partnership recommendation by farmers.
