Abstract

Along with the high demand for mangosteen fruit from domestic and export, it is necessary to have a good post-harvest handling to be able to manage the sales of mangosteen products. For this purpose, Hegarmanah Village, Cicantayan Sub-district, Sukabumi Regency built a packing house called Mega Fruit (Mustika Lestari XI), which is managed by a mangosteen farmer group. In 2009 the government provided assistance in the form of a building for packing house and its facilities. To analysis whether the packing house operation with the addition of the government aid is feasible or not definitely requires research on the analysis of operational feasibility of Mega Fruit (Mustika Lestari XI).The data used in this research was obtained through interviews with managers and studies on related literature. In this study the operational feasibility analysis included financial, technical and managerial aspects. The financial aspect analysis included production cost and investment feasibility. The technical aspect analysis covered production process and material flow pattern of mangosteen products. The management analysis involved such aspects as business entity, labor division, and organizational structure. The total cost of mangosteen production was Rp 2,749,085,666. With the basic cost of Rp 8,086 / kg, it was still below the selling price of Rp 8,300 / kg, so that the sales of mangosteen could provide a profit of Rp 214 / kg. The break even point of packing house operations was 135,459 kg / year. The average production reached 340,000 kg / year, meaning that the packing house was running at a profitable level. The result of financial feasibility analysis showed that the packing house was feasible to operate with the NPV value of the project's life of (grant of packing house) nine years ahead on a discount factor of 15% Rp 192,350,661, the IRR of 32.77%, the net value B / C of 1.74, and the payback period of 3.1 years. The result of sensitivity analysis to changes in the operational costs of transportation, production volumes and selling prices at the packing house showed that the selling price was an element of change which was so sensitive that in the future the selling price should be higher. The technical analysis showed that the packing house was run by a regular sequence of production activities with the U-shaped pattern of material flow so that the desired end product was at the location adjacent to the initial process. The analysis showed that based on the management aspect of the ownership status, the packing house was owned by a group of farmers. The operational management of packing house was done by workers in line with the need so that production could run well.
