Rekomendasi Strategis sebagai Dasar Evaluasi Kawasan Transmigrasi Subah, Kalimantan Barat

Abstract

The development of the Subah Transmigration area is expected to establish the region as a center for agricultural production and agribusiness, oriented toward market-driven approaches. Improving the condition of the area’s facilities and infrastructure is an essential component that supports the advancement of the transmigration area. Enhancing physical, social, economic, institutional, ecological, infrastructural, health, and educational aspects is a crucial factor that ultimately contributes to improving the quality of life and public service delivery within the transmigration area. This study aims to identify the existing conditions of the Subah transmigration area, covering physical, social, economic, institutional, ecological, and infrastructural aspects. The methods used include field surveys and direct interviews. The study results indicate that the leading commodity in the area is oil palm, which directly influences the economic conditions of the transmigrant community. The main challenges faced include land-related issues and inadequate infrastructure conditions, both of which affect efforts to improve the quality of life of transmigrant households. Furthermore, oil palm waste has not been utilized optimally and continues to accumulate without proper processing. Based on these findings, several strategic recommendations are proposed, including the acceleration of administrative boundary measurements and the issuance of land ownership certificates for the community, the development and rehabilitation of basic infrastructure that remains inadequate, and the promotion of innovative approaches to utilize plantation waste as a raw material for animal feed.
