Abstract

This study examines how plasma farmers allocate working time for oil palm activities, activities outside of oil palm and non-farm activities, and factors affecting the time allocation of oil palm farmers. South Sumatera, especially Musi Banyuasin Regency, has potential in the development of oil palm plantations. Oil palm is a cultivation plant whose maintenance is relatively easy, which induces farmers who are working with more than palm oil to increase their household income. In the case of palm oil farming development, oil palm farming activities are supported also with natural resources and oil palm crops can develop on land that has a diverse agricultural ecosystem. Oil palm farmers in this study were plasma farmers (farmers working with corporations as the core). The non-farming time allocation for palm oil is greater than the allocation of working time in oil palm farming. Factors influencing the allocation of working time of palm oil growers are influenced by income and age. KEYWORDS Allocation, working time, productivity, farmers
