Price Gap and Comparation Trading, Agribusiness System 1 x 20 x At the Farmer’s level Rp. 1.500/ kg. At the Supermarket Rp 28.650/ kg The 1st Collector buyer The 2nd Collector The Main Trader of Temulawak Industrial & Export price ? Currency: 1 Euro = Rp. 13,750,-
Related of the Keywords • Geospatial information ( the suitability level map, Demplot data & information, Physical Geographic data) related Temulawak cultivation and others planning is important • Estimation of Curcuma harvest through calculation and logical on the field for more real approach. • Optimum harvest, using all medium classes on (suitable level, yield and price), to avoid Under or over estimate and for sustainable.
GOALS AND EXPECTATIONS • This study is concern on optimization harvest of Curcuma in the study area (Bogor regency). • How the result of this research could be influence of national and international needs for herbal medicine. • The desired results is the synergies among agribusiness stakeholders ranging from Curcuma farmers, traders and herbal medicine industries.
Curcuma stepping Yield Row yield /Harvest Net Yield Simplicia
Results of Demplot, related on: Cost, labour, actual yield and area Table no. 1. Sample Results in Demplot area Net yield = 4,503 kg for 46.46 % of 2,850 m2 . So that 1 Ha estimated yield 15.8 Kg.
RESPONDSIVE OF FARMERS The first step their ask for guarantie price at harvest season on Rp. 5,000/kg. (But for now is impossible. The second step, using optimum price on Rp. 3,000/ kg. actualy only view farmers agree, they have total area equal 2 % of (2 Villages) the stdy area. Only 2 % of land and Famers on the study area will be ready to apply , if the higest price on Rp. 3.000,-.
Optimum Yield Estimation Calculation of (real area available from the farmers response and their field has been observed = 2 % of the study area). Its mean that 2 % of Bogor area = 5,967.342 hectares x (actual yield by Demplot 15.8 ton/ hektar ) = 94.284 tons.
CONCLUTION • Demplot on the suitable Level Map can be used as a reference to estimate optimum production, so Geospatial Information is Important for managing, calculating and herbal cultivation planning due to their Agribusiness. • On the optimum price Rp. 3.000,- or € 0.24/kg., optimum yield harvest of curcuma will be reach 94.284 tons in Bogor regency. Covering area of 5,967.342 hectares = 2 % of the area.
SUGGESTION • Geospatial data and information should be used for calculation yield estimation espcially of an Agricultural optimum harvest. • Government should learn: fix price on harvest season and regulate an agribusiness system, particularly the medicinal plants trading.
