Abstract

Differences in harvesting and postharvest practices among independent oil palm farmers affiliated with Tinting Boyok Lestari Village Cooperative in Sekadau Regency, West Kalimantan, indicate a need for shared technical guidance. This community service program aimed to strengthen technical reasoning, facilitate practice comparisons, and identify cooperative-level improvements in harvesting and postharvest management. Thirty male farmers participated. Classroom sessions were held in Pontianak on 3–5 August 2026, followed by a field visit to Patiware, a plantation company in Bengkayang Regency, on 6 August 2026. The program comprised exploration of farming experiences and problems, technical instruction, peer presentations, field observation, and reflection on adaptation. Evaluation focused on technical explanations, connections across topics, practice comparisons, and the feasibility of proposed follow-up actions. The reported process outcomes included discussions linking fruit ripeness, harvesting rounds, loose-fruit recovery, occupational safety, transport, and origin records. The field visit provided operational examples for comparison with participants’ farms. Recommended follow-up actions included harvesting guidelines, harvest and transport records, and periodic peer review. The program provided a basis for cooperative learning; changes in individual competence and implementation of recommendations require further evaluation.
