Judul: Analisis Kelayakan Usaha Asparagus (Asparagus Officionalis) di Kelompok Tani Al'istiqomah Kecamatan Ciwidey Kabupaten Bandung
Abstrak: Asparagus is a subtropical plant that can be cultivated in the highlands of Indonesia, such as Bandung Ciwidey that have the necessary conditions to grow asparagus. The first farmer groups that cultivates asparagus in District Ciwidey is Al’istiqomah Farmer Group. This group is the first farmer group who became a pioneer in commercializing asparagus. Expensive seedling price is one of the obstacle that the farmers group faces in cultivating these plants, that have a technical life of 5 years. The purpose of this study was to analyze the feasibility of Farmers Group Al’istiqomah in the non-financial and financial aspects. In ii addition, this study also analyzes the sensitivity to changes in operating conditions using a switching value. The results of the research will show that not all the criteria on financial and non-financial aspects can be feasible. Analyses were performed with two scenarios, the first scenario is the actual condition of the business and the second scenario is the condition of the development work done by adding greenhouse s in the field. In scenario I, the NPV obtained was 7 182 684.85, the value of the Net B / C is 1.17, the IRR value was 12% to a 7% discount rate and the payback period for scenario I is 4.48 years. In scenario II, the NPV obtained 26 012 781.22, the value of the Net B / C is 1.51, the IRR value was 24% at a discount of 7% and the payback period is 4.0 years. These two scenarios are feasible by the farmer groups. A risk analysis on several inflow and outflow components was conducted in these two scenarios. The components that have a high degree of sensitivity to change is the decline of production in the first scenario with the value of 10.22% and also in the second scenario with the value of 26.41%.

Abstrak: Horticulture is one of the agricultural sub-sector has an important role in Indonesian economy. Vegetables has great contribution to GDP from horticultural commodity groups. In 2011, vegetables had the highest growth percentage compared to the other three groups of commodities, which reached 6.06 percent. In 2007-2011, vegetables also had the highest growth percentage of 6.72 percent. One of vegetable commodities that have the potential to be developed is bell peppers. The demand for bell peppers, both in the local market as well as export markets, is higher than the supply. It is a chance to most entrepreneur to start and grown the cultivation of bell peppers. But, the high of investment can be obstruction to run the cultivation of bell peppers. Therefore the feasibility analysis of hydroponic bell peppers is needed to know how much the business can give profit for the entrepreneurs. Firm which has many experiences in the cultivation of bell peppers is Saung Mirwan. The company has been running the bell peppers cultivation since the 1990’s. Therefore, a production farm of Saung Mirwan can be referenced for the entrepreneurs who want to entry the business of bell peppers cultivation. This study is analyzed the cultivation of bell peppers with hydroponic and drip irrigation systems. The purpose of this study was (1) analyzed the non-financial feasibility of the hydroponic bell peppers in Saung Mirwan, (2) analyzed the financial feasibility of hydroponic bell peppers in Saung Mirwan, (3) analyzed the sensitivity of hydroponic bell peppers in Saung Mirwan with changes the decreased in the prices output, declined in the number of bell peppers production, and increased in the price of nutrients. The research was conducted in the production farm of Saung Mirwan from October 2010 until February 2011. This study uses qualitative and quantitative analysis as methods to explain the analysis of non-financial and financial aspects in the business of hydroponic bell peppers. The result of the feasibility analysis indicate that the market, technical, management, social, economic and cultural, and environmental aspect of hydroponic cultivation of bell peppers is feasible. The financial aspects analysis stated the hydroponic bell peppers cultivation is feasible with the value of Rp 9.9 billion of NPV, IRR of 34.18 percent, Net B/C of 3.76, and payback period for 5 years. Switching value analysis results show that the business unfeasible if the bell peppers prices is decreased more than 49.65 percent, the number of bell peppers production decline more than 49.65 percent, and the price of nutrients increased more than 427.90 percent. This shows that the feasibility of hydroponic bell peppers is more sensitive to decreasing price of output and the declining of production rather than increasing in the price of nutrition.
