Abstract

Palm oil is one of the leading commodities agriculture sector in the plantation subsector, the existence of national private large plantations is a trigger for the presence of surrounding community gardens. The problem faced by smallholder oil palm farmers in the Upper Kampar River Basin is low productivity which results in low income of farmers due to high input prices and cheap output prices and far market access. The research objective is to find a model for the development of community oil palm plantations that function as conservation by implementing GAP. The method used is the Location Quotient (LQ) to analyze the export capacity of a region's economy and the level of adequacy of goods / services from a region's local production and spatial analysis to analyze the suitability of spatial and land suitability. The hypothesis is that community oil palm plantations in the upper Kampar watershed are not feasible to be developed because they are not suitable in terms of spatial suitability, land slope, land availability, market availability, difficult access to financial institutions
