Judul: Feasibility of Oil Palm Plantation Business Partnership PT SNP with KUD SM
Abstrak: Kelapa sawit adalah salah satu komoditas perkebunan andalan yang memiliki peran strategis dalam membangun perekonomian Indonesia. Perkebunan kelapa sawit terbukti dapat meningkatkan tingkat kesejahteraan masyarakat dan menekan angka pengangguran. Kemitraan PT SNP dengan KUD SM adalah kemitraan perkebunan kelapa sawit yang didirikan pada tahun 2013. Salah satu permasalahan yang ada pada kemitraan ini adalah lahan yang tidak sesuai dengan kriteria kesesuaian lahan dan jumlah tanaman per hektarnya yang rendah (96 pohon). Kesesuaian lahan dan jumlah tanaman per hektar adalah salah satu faktor penting yang mempengaruhi produksi. Selain itu, faktor kesesuaian lahan menyebabkan besarnya biaya operasional yang dikeluarkan pada kemitraan ini. Produksi dan biaya pada kemitraan ini mempengaruhi kelayakan finansial dari kemitraan ini. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah melakukan evaluasi dengan menganalisis kelayakan usaha perkebunan kelapa sawit PT SNP dengan KUD SM. Metode analisis data yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah metode kualitatif dan metode kuantitatif. Analisis kualitatif digunakan untuk menentukan kelayakan ditinjau dari aspek pasar, aspek manajemen dan hukum, serta aspek sosial dan lingkungan. Analisis kuantitatif dilakukan untuk menentukan kelayakan ditinjau dari aspek finansial menggunakan kriteria penilaian investasi (NPV, Net B/C, IRR, dan PP). Hasil analisis yang didapatkan menunjukkan bahwa usaha perkebunan kemitraan kelapa sawit PT SNP dengan KUD SM tidak layak untuk dijalankan dan memerlukan evaluasi., Palm oil is one of the mainstay plantation commodities that has a strategic role in building the Indonesian economy. Oil palm plantations have proven to be able to increase the level of community welfare and reduce unemployment. PT SNP's partnership with KUD SM is an oil palm plantation partnership established in 2013. One of the problems that exist in the partnership between PT SNP and KUD SM is the land that does not meet the criteria and the number of plants per hectare (96 trees). Land suitability and number of plants per hectare is one of the important factors affecting production. In addition, the land suitability factor causes the large operational costs incurred in this partnership. The production and costs of this partnership affect the financial viability of this partnership. The purpose of this study was to evaluate by analyzing the feasibility of PT SNP's oil palm plantation business with KUD SM. The data analysis method used in this study is a qualitative method and a quantitative method. Qualitative analysis is used to determine feasibility in terms of market, management, and legal aspects, as well as social and environmental aspects. Quantitative analysis was conducted to determine the feasibility in terms of financial aspects using investment assessment criteria (NPV, Net B/C, IRR, and PP). The results of the analysis showed that the oil palm partnership plantation business of PT SNP with KUD SM was not feasible to run and needed evaluation.

Abstrak: Problems that become the base of oil palm development is how to find a mutually beneficial synergy between farmers and companies in the cultivation of oil palm plantation with the partnership pattern. Goal of this research is to evaluate the prospects of partnership between PT Anugerah Farmers Co (PT ATB) with ‘owner’ land farmers, to analyze the feasibility of cultivation of oil palm plantation partnership for PT ATB and farmers, and determine strategic development priorities of partnerships by the oil palm plantation partnership between PT ATB with the farmers. Types of data used in this study the data in the form of investment costs, operating costs, and organizational management, partnership and farmers' income. The data in this study include primary and secondary data. Analysis carried out on various aspects relating to the strategy and the feasibility of developing oil palm plantations with the partnership developed, the partnership model, the analysis of plasma farmers' income, financial feasibility analysis, internal and external analysis. PT. ATB implement core-plasma partnership pattern with the farmers. Partnership core-plasma system that is applied is 60:40 partnership system. The results of the analysis indicate that the development plan of plantation and factory, in the technical assumptions and economic can be met, then the standard can be met quite feasible in all feasibility criteria. Total project investment will be recovered (PBP) in 9.87 years and net cash value (NPV) projects amounted to Rp 446.039 billion. Cash value of this project is equivalent to the internal exchange rate (IRR) of 34.15% (before interest), or 27.55% (after interest). Internal factors that became the strength of the partnership are the land, marketing, finance, credibility to access capital, government relations and public relations. While the factors that are considered to be the weaknesses are experience to build plantation, research and development, and management information system. External factors that become opportunity for partnership is local government support, availability of farmers land, banking support, and the prospects of oil palm. While the factors considered as a threat is political and security situation of the world. According to the results of QSPM analysis matrix, the prior alternative strategies is the SO (strengths and opportunities) based strategy is maximize cooperation partnerships with the potential of land owned by the community.

Abstrak: Gravitational field equation can be formulated in differential forms (differential geometry), which describes gravity as a manifestation of the curvature of space-time. Curvature of space-time is characterized by a metric that satisfies the gravitational field equation. With differential forms it can be formulated the (anti-) self-dual Einstein equation, which is a modification of the Cartan structure in (anti-) self-dual basis. Calculation of (anti-) self-dual metric with (anti-) self-dual Einstein equation is simpler than the calculation using Christoffel symbols.
