Cocoa Industry in Acehy• Indonesia has been the world’s third largest
cocoa-producer since the 1980s. • Despite high end chocolate fetching upwards of
US$200/kg among affluent consumers, the average price paid to farmers in Indonesia for their cocoa beans can be as low as US$2.00/kg

• Global demand for cocoa has been outstripping supply to the extent that prices were up 30% (Cadbury, 2008)

Overall Scenario
• The aid assistance including funding from donors is in decline hence threatening the sustainability of Aceh’s economic recovery unless self-reliant economic activity commences
• Unstable supply from leading producer countries such as Ghana, Ivory Coast and Indonesia has motivated buyers to not only
b l b t l i t isecure cocoa beans early, but also invest in farmers to improve yields and quality.
• Consumer demand for organic fair trade andConsumer demand for organic, fair trade and specialty products has driven exporters such as Armajaro, Olam and others to pay closer attention to traceability and supply chain issuesissues

54
Programme Targets, Activities & Impacts
• The Community Programme is designed to support proposed Business Model with 3 key pp p p yinitiatives which are the demonstration plot, farmer field school and communication outreach
• The key 3 initiatives will bring the community together so as to, increase the level of productivity and awareness. Most importantly the increase in productivity willimportantly, the increase in productivity will also improve per capita farmer income by more than 3 times over the period of 5 years
• To maintain a sustainable industry it is vital to incentivise the farmers, the first link in the chain. This is best achieved by ensuring improved income per capita
55
Demonstration Plot - Concept
• A commitment to improved quality & productivity through sustainable farmingproductivity through sustainable farming practices
• A facility that demonstrates best practice and invests in expanding the knowledge of localinvests in expanding the knowledge of local farmers to realise greater revenue
• A training ground that can also be used for research and analysis
• A concept that can be easily replicated to complement/support the processing unitscomplement/support the processing units
• The demonstration plot is also a place for investors to visit and view the process
56
Demonstration Plot – ConceptDemonstration Plot Concept
The location is an important consideration– The location is an important consideration– Our recommendation is to use an existing
farm which is 1 hectare– In selecting the farm, a collective decision
from the community should be made to yavoid any negative sentiment issues
– The farmer will be given the necessary training and assistance to develop his land. The farmer will draw a minimum monthly– The farmer will draw a minimum monthly wage
– The demonstration plot will be funded through the partners of Alami Kado
– Our partners will have the responsibility of p p ycoordinating and monitoring the demonstration plot as part of a planned programme
57
Best Practice
• Farming Practices to be implementedStudies show that majority of farms in the Pidie district don’t use basic farming techniques and thedemonstration plot will implement the following practicesdemonstration plot will implement the following practices
-Frequent Harvesting -Prunning-Sanitation of pod husk -Fertilization-Bio-Control -Side Graftingg
• Cash Crops– Farmers operating demonstration plots will be trained in the farming of additional crops
ddi t f f d it d i t bilitadding to resources for food, security and income stability
58
Best Practices
Improving the harvest cycle• The weakness of harvest pattern in Pidie is due to the fact that peak harvest
t k l d i th t i N b d D btakes place during the wet season in November and December• Good cocoa pruning techniques lead to a more conducive harvest pattern, with
regards to seasonality, thereby reducing the rate of mouldy beans• Availability of cocoa bean dryers is important to the processy y p p• Ensuring the consistency in supply
Best practices lead to a positive change in harvest season
59
Demonstration Plots
Financial Requirements
The effectiveness of a demonstration plot leads to a potential of 400kg of increased cocoa production per hectare per year(based on a study that was done in Sulawesi by the Sustainable Cocoa Enterprise Solutions for Smallholders (SUCCESS) Alliance Indonesia)(SUCCESS) Alliance – Indonesia)
60
Connectivity and Traceability
• Connecting the farmers through a visible and disciplined process is key toand disciplined process is key to bringing the change in mindset required.– Implement a registration system,
connecting farmers to the warehouse to ensure traceability
– Each farmer receives an identification card, capturing information on quality, q antit and consistenc of prod ctionquantity and consistency of production
– This system will also provide visibility to the payment process, including payment of trainingof training
– Regular communication updates via SMS to farmers on initiatives such as training dates, outcomes of training and updates on pricing
61
Farmer Field SchoolConceptConcept
• A 3-year Farmer Field Schools (FFS) programme to be implemented by trainers from three sources:
– Farmers from the community of Pidie – Employees of Dinas Perkebunan (DISBUN)– Employees of local agencies
• The FFS concept teaches farmers e S co cep eac es a e sthrough practice, on-farm observation and farmer led research.
• The Training of Trainers (TOT) approachThe Training of Trainers (TOT) approach will be applied and each session will have a class size of 50 trainees. The Trainers are then expected to train 20 farmers in a year. y
• Farmer teachers are initially schooled on their own plot, then paid monthly when they begin training others.
• Farmers will receive accreditation upon completion of training.
62
Implementation
Location:To ensure engagement and connectivity, training locations will be identified g g y, gcollectively by the Training Coordinator, farmers, community leaders and staff from DISBUN.
The curriculum/modules: The modules will prioritize areas of importance that would increase productivity level in a consistent manner. Core to the module will be the knowledge to combat the Cocoa Pod Borer (CPB) pest by using the PsPSP, a low cost low input cultural method for controlling the CPB and other pestsa low cost, low input cultural method for controlling the CPB and other pests as well as for increasing tree productivity.
Record:Participants will receive one logbook to write all business activities. This isParticipants will receive one logbook to write all business activities. This is an exercise in record keeping on a day-to-day basis that would enable farmers to obtain actual data on their activities to provide a tool for comparison, analysis, reflection and improvement of future business acti itiesactivities.

Conclusion
• Aceh is open for business.
W i t t t f th i lt l t th t i• We propose a unique corporate structure for the agricultural sector that is commercially focused, yet works in favor of improving farmer livelihoods.
• The key success factors are: Th ti f b i d l th t b i t th f d ll t• The creation of a business model that brings together farmers and collectors with exporters and international buyers/investors.
• The share holder mix aligns the interests of all parties to build a financially viable and socially responsible company. I t t i t t l d i d tit th h• Improvements to ensure consistent supply and improved quantity through:- Strategic partnerships to ensure farmers acquire the skill-sets through training and education, - Access to working capital for farmers
Al i K d Pt ti l t th i th l h i- Alami Kado Pt. proactively strengthening the cocoa value chain. • The precondition for farmers to organize themselves, which will ensure
exporters and international buyers/investors closer procurement to the source of supply (ie. Smallholder farmers).
81
• The model is replicable and modular, creating business opportunities for scaling up operations, and including other districts.
