Analisis Yuridis Empiris terhadap Tata Kelola Koperasi dan Perlindungan Hak Petani dalam Hubungan Kemitraan Kelapa Sawit (Studi pada Koperasi Konsumen Sempan Jaya Bersatu, Kabupaten Bangka)

Abstract

This research examines the governance of Koperasi Konsumen Sempan Jaya Bersatu (KKSJB) in its partnership with oil palm farmers and the fulfillment of farmers’ rights as partners. This study employs a juridical-empirical method using conceptual and case approaches. Data were collected through interviews with KKSJB management and partner farmers, as well as an examination of complaint letters and mediation results. The findings reveal ambiguity in the legal status of farmers, differences in the formal positions of the parties, the involvement of intermediaries in field-level operations, and the absence of written partnership agreements. Transparency and information disclosure to farmers also remain limited. Nevertheless, KKSJB provides benefits to the surrounding community through CSR funds. The study recommends strengthening cooperative governance through clearer legal standing, written partnership agreements, greater transparency, and clearer legal relationships between the parties.
