MANAGEMENT STRATEGY FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF OIL PALM PLANTATION COMMUNITY OF PARENGGEAN AND EAST KOTAWARINGIN DISTRICTS, INDONESIA
Abstract
Palm oil is one of the leading commodities which play a strategic role in alleviating poverty, providing employment opportunities, spreading development and a source of foreign exchange for the country. The rapid development of oil palm plantation development has had negative impacts on the environment and social. The conversion of natural forests with high conservation value can reduce the quality of the environment and ecosystem. The development of oil palm plantations that do not pay attention to the rights of customary, customary and indigenous communities without the permission of the relevant communities before plantation development is carried out will cause social conflict. These problems need to be addressed to maintain the competitiveness of Indonesian palm oil products by realizing the development of sustainable palm oil plantations.
