Abstract

Since 2013, California lemons have been grown in Banyumas Regency. Currently, Banyumas Regency has 12 ha of lemon planting space with 6,550 plants. California lemon growing is a privately held enterprise in Banyumas Regency. However, California lemon farmers in Banyumas Regency have collaborated with PT. Cilengko Lentera Al Barokah for the procurement of plant seeds and the sale of crops. However, there are still problems experienced by lemon farmers with partners, including the weak bargaining power of farmers with partners and the lack of transparency in the grading process. These conditions affect the income and sustainability of farmers' lemon agribusiness. Therefore, this study aims to determine the feasibility of the California lemon business in Banyumas Regency. The methods used are NPV analysis, Net B/C ratio, IRR, and payback period (PP). The respondents of this study are lemon farmers in the Banyumas area and have partnered with PT. Cilengko Lentera Al Barokah. Through this research, it can be known the feasibility of lemon agribusiness and can be used as a consideration for farmers or other stakeholders to enter lemon agribusiness. The analysis results show that lemon agribusiness in Banyumas Regency is worthy of effort and benefits farmers.
