For two decades, the condition of air temperature and thermal comfort at two locations (Sukarami and Sako) in Palembang city with different landscape changes have been assessed in this study. The variations of air temperature over the past two decades were reported. The Temperature Humidity Index (THI) was an indicator for assessing thermal comfort and its values are categorized as comfortable, quite comfortable, and uncomfortable. The results showed that the air temperature in Sako increased by about two times greater than the increase at Sukarami which was 1.1 °C and 0.5 °C. This study clearly reveals that thermal comfort conditions have worsened in the last two decades. During 1999, the THI values were dominated by quite comfortable categories at both locations. After two decades, in 2019, the percentage of days in the quite comfortable category of both locations decreased by almost 60% at Sukarami and more than 80% at Sako. The main factor this difference occurs is the landscape changes with depletion of vegetation area at both locations.

Several studies on the welfare impact have shown that some smallholders benefit greatly in terms of income. Meanwhile, there are challenges to improve the welfare of smallholders, such as financial and knowledge barriers. Therefore, this article aims to identify social interventions’ contribution to improving farmer welfare and realizing environmentally friendly oil palm plantations. Social intervention can be interpreted as an effort to help in the form of planned changes to individuals, groups, and communities, which can come from government, corporate, third parties, communities, and individuals. This article contributes to define and gather social intervention perspective in improving smallholder welfare. The study employs a method approach combining literature review and descriptive analysis. These social intervention approaches, ideally embedded in a community strat...

The most significant potential from East Kalimantan is mining products and palm oil products. Qualitative method are used on this research by using analysis process from the real development data from 2016 until 2019 using geospatial analysis process. In mining areal case, the most significant permission already developed in residential areas with number 75,22%, which mean 2.062.075,5 hectare areas. The same problem has happened in palm oil areal that develop in 46,7%, which mean 543.021,92 hectare areas. Another result was showed that in mining and oil palm areas already has overlapping areas in 3,53% or 449.753,53 hectare areas. There is a problem in the development process in the past three years. It needs to evaluate in real to make sure the urban landuse plan from 2016 until 2036 still in the right way.

Increasing smallholder yields is an important instrument for increasing local income and livelihoods. However, small-scale oil palm expansion has problems with low productivity and quality of production. Therefore, to increase their productivity and improve their cultivation, this study measures the importance of planting behavior and specific treatment of farmers’ prosperity and productivity. To measure the possible significant differences between and within groups, a statistical approach, ANOVA, has been used while Spearman’s correlation matrix also has been used to measure the correlation between variables. This study finds that good seed treatment and adequate doses of fertilizer are important for farmers’ prosperity and productivity. Smallholder farmers have the least expenditure but the highest average production and income with the most ...

In addition, some conflict in there not yet resolved, and for achieving conflict resolution need to understand each element that affects the conflict and offer proper conflict resolution. This research identified and analyzed each element that offers the effect to conflict resolution based on mass media information, literature review, and depth interview with the head of village and section head of conflict management in Jambi. However, this article identified through mediation is the best way to resolve the conflict. Each actor and condition of the place will give effect to the success rate for that conflict to be resolve through mediation. Nevertheless, farmers can be used as a driver to encourage mediation process through joint action in the local community.
