Tahap kepuasan pekebun kecil sawit terhadap amalan integrasi sawit (Satisfaction level of smallholder toward oil palm integration practise)
Abstract
Abstrak
Integrasi sawit adalah suatu aktiviti yang mengintegrasikan tanaman sawit bersama aktiviti ekonomi lain seperti tanaman dan ternakan. Amalan integrasi sawit ini didapati memberi manfaat langsung kepada pekebun kecil sawit seperti peningkatan pendapatan. Namun begitu, tahap kepuasan pekebun kecil sawit terhadap amalan integrasi sawit yang mereka laksanakan masih belum dikaji. Persoalannya, wujudkah perbezaan terhadap tahap kepuasan pekebun kecil sawit mengikut kategori pelaksanaan, kos pelaksanaan dan pendapatan integrasi sawit. Oleh itu, objektif artikel bertujuan mengukur tahap kepuasan pekebun kecil sawit terhadap amalan integrasi sawit dan mengenal pasti perbezaan tahap kepuasan pekebun kecil sawit mengikut kategori pelaksanaan, kos pelaksanaan dan pendapatan integrasi sawit. Seramai 140 orang pekebun kecil yang mengusahakan integrasi sawit di sekitar tujuh buah daerah di Johor telah dianalisis. Statistik deskriptif dan ujian Anova digunakan bagi menjawab objektif perbincangan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan sebahagian besar pekebun kecil berpuashati dengan integrasi sawit yang mereka laksanakan. Tahap kepuasan mereka juga signifikan berbeza antara jenis pelaksanaan, kos pelaksanaan dan pendapatan integrasi sawit. Bermakna, integrasi sawit harus diberikan perhatian sewajarnya oleh pekebun kecil kerana terbukti meningkatkan pendapatan mereka. Tambahan pula, integrasi sawit juga memberi kepuasan kepada mereka selain memperolehi manfaat sampingan hasil aktiviti tersebut. Hal ini merupakan sesuatu yang positif, justeru integrasi sawit harus dilaksanakan secara berterusan.
Kata kunci: integrasi tanaman, integrasi ternakan, kepuasan, pekebun kecil sawit, pelaksanaan, pendapatan

Hence, the objective of the article is to measure the level of oil palm smallholder satisfaction on oil palm integration practices, and to identify the differences in the level of satisfaction of oil palm smallholders according to the implementation category, implementation cost and oil palm income. Data from a total of 140 palm oil smallholders is analyzed in this discussions. Descriptive statistics and Anova test were used to answer the objective of the study. The results showed that most of the smallholders satisfied with the oil palm integration that they are implementing.
