Abstract
This research is aimed to identify the potential economic value of oil palm waste utilization and to construct an environmentally friendly business model based on oil palm waste utilization for the context of North Kalimantan Province. Method of research is descriptive using both quantitative and qualitative specifications. The results of research showed that plantation enterprises and farmers do not yet optimally utilize and manage oil palm waste into economically valuable products. The population around oil palm plantation perceive that oil palm waste from oil palm enterprises is safe and never bringing negative impact on environment. Economical value potential from oil palm waste utilization has been calculated and the number is positive and profitable. Other result indicated that the construction of a business model regarding oil palm waste management involves a collaboration between plantation enterprises, farmers and Village Enterprise (Bumdes-Badan Usaha Milik Desa) as the representative of community around the plantation. The expectation is that the utilization of oil palm waste will improve the welfare of farmers and community members, protect the environment and prevent social conflict concerning waste from happening.
本研究旨在识别油棕废弃物利用的潜在经济价值,并以北加里曼丹省为背景,构建基于油棕废弃物利用的环境友好型商业模式。研究方法是描述性的,同时使用定量和定性规范。研究结果表明,种植企业和农民尚未优化利用和管理油棕废弃物,将其转化为具有经济价值的产品。油棕种植园周围的居民认为油棕企业的油棕废弃物是安全的,不会对环境造成负面影响。对油棕废弃物利用的经济价值潜力进行了计算,得到了正收益。其他结果表明,油棕废弃物管理商业模式的构建涉及种植园企业、农民和以种植园周边社区为代表的Village Enterprise (Bumdes-Badan Usaha Milik Desa)之间的合作。期望油棕废弃物的利用将改善农民和社区成员的福利,保护环境,防止因废弃物而产生的社会冲突。
