Abstract

This study aims to determine the relationship between farmers' income and the welfare of oil palm farmers in Tebing Tinggi District, West Tanjung Jabung Regency. Data collection using a questionnaire from 96 farmers selected through a simple random method. The measure of income per capita uses BPS, the measure of welfare uses BKKBN and the relationship between income and welfare is analyzed using chi square. The results of the analysis show that differences in income groups cause significant differences in farmer welfare. Income is not the main factor determining welfare but can also be seen from a person's ability to access education, health, or social relations. High income can facilitate the fulfillment of basic needs and improve the quality of life, but if other factors are not met, overall welfare may not be achieved. The results of the study show that most farmers are in the low income group and welfare is in the prosperous family group II, namely farmers who can meet basic family needs such as food, clothing and shelter and psychological needs. Most farmers are in a fairly prosperous condition, but some are included in vulnerable groups that need to be considered through the formulation of development policies in increasing income, education and health subsidies, and increasing access to decent housing.
