Abstract
This study aimed to study Knowledge and understanding, attitude, motivation and acceptance of RSPO standard for small oil palm farmers in Chumphon Province, to study factors affecting oil palm farmers to be certified by RSPO and to propose a practical model to promote RSPO among farmers. The study was conducted with qualitative and quantitative research methods. Questionnaires were collected from 390 small oil palm farmers who have not been certified by RSPO. The collected data was used for descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis Moreover, different interviews were done with corresponding officers.
The results showed that farmers knowledge and understanding, and attitude were in high level score with an average score of 0.88 and 4.17, respectively. The farmers motivation and acceptance for RSPO standard were in very high level score with and average score of 4.32 and 4.5, respectively. The factors that relate and influence the compliance of the RSPO requirements of smallholder oil palm farmers were knowledge and understanding of RSPO, motivation to comply with RSPO and acceptance of RSPO. These three factors were able to predict the variance of compliance of the RSPO standard with a step-by-step multiple regression of 43.7 percent. The study also propose a practical model to promote RSPO standard among small oil palm farmers in Chumphon Province by using collected data and different principles; participation in promotion incentive creation, farmer aggregation with good structure, networking for common practices, knowledge and experience exchange and trainings.
