Penetapan Skala Industri Batik Rumahan Menurut Kriteria Lokal: Studi di Desa Jarum, Kabupaten Klaten

Abstract

Bayat Sub-district of Klaten Regency has been supplying batik to Yogyakarta and Surakarta since the 1960’s. The role of Bayat as a batik provider is inseparable from Jarum village, which was officially established as a tourism village by the Government of Klaten Regency in 2014. Considering that batik is produced under Putting Out System (POS) which employs home workers, the industrial scale criteria applied to formal industry is less appropriate if it will be applied to batik home-industry as a micro-small scaled industry. This research was conducted to describe the profile of batik industry in Jarum village as well as arrange criteria used by Jarum people to determine the scale of batik industry. This qualitative research data was collected by interview, observation, documentation, and literature study. The results showed that there were 19 industries producing batik cloth, 10 industries producing batik woodcraft, 1 industry producing batik T-shirt, and 1 industry producing batik painting. Based on local perception, 7 industries were categorized as large, 13 industries were categorized as moderate, and 11 industries were categorized as small. The criteria used to establish the industrial scale were production scale, number of employees, and marketing reach. Only 5 industries found to apply natural colorants for batik clothes production, while synthetic dyes were applied broadly for batik clothes, batik T-shirt, batik woodcraft, and paintings. Natural colorants less desirable by batik Juragans who use synthetic dyes because the application of natural dyes will prolong the production, limits the scale of production, tend to shows uncontrolled quality, and more difficult to sell.

Beyond the Money: A Case Study on the Benefit of Hand-Drawing Batik to Female Batik Workers in Jarum Klaten Regency

“…Workers for coloration or the dyers were paid for IDR 25,000 to IDR 75,000 per day or IDR 50,000 per day on average, while buruh nyanthing were paid of IDR 25,000 to IDR 50,000 per day or IDR 37,500 per day on average (Table 1.). Those who work in coloration were considered to work harder than those who do nyanthing, and they were paid differently due to this reason (Handayani et al, 2017). We observed that in addition to coloration, the workers were responsible for boiling and washing the clothes and put them under the sunlight for drying (Figure 4).…”

“…Based on our previous research, there are 31 batik industries in the village, 19 of which produce batik cloth, 10 industries produce batik on woodcraft, an industry produces batik on T-shirt, and another industry produces batik paintings (Handayani et al, 2017). However, we focused on batik cloth production as female homeworkers get involved in hand drawing batik, and that batik cloth industries comprise about 61% of total batik industries in Jarum.…”

“…The data was collected from entrepreneurs of seven batik home industries in Jarum Village. Based on local criteria, five of those industries are classified into large industries, one of which is a small industry, and the rest is a moderate-scaled industry (Handayani et al, 2017). In the next discussion, the batik entrepreneurs will be called as juragan.…”
