The implementation of cooperation agreements between plasma farmers
and nucleus farmers during the COVID-19 pandemic in Kendal District while there
are policy inconsistencies on the one hand encouraging partnerships but on the
other hand there are regulations that do not protect plasma farmers. The purpose
of the formation of this agreement is to obtain profits determined by the will of the
parties making the agreement. The legal research uses empirical legal research
that focuses on social facts in layer farms in Kendal Regency. The implementation
of regulations is inconsistent with existing regulations, on the one hand
encouraging partnerships on the other hand harming plasma agreements.
Inconsistency in the regulation of egg and feed prices, the price of feed is too high
and the price of eggs is too low, because the eggs circulating in the market are not
eggs from laying hen farmers which are infertile eggs, but fertile eggs, which causes
infertile eggs to decrease in price because fertile eggs damage market prices,
because the price of fertile eggs is cheaper than infertile eggs. This causes laying
plasma farmers to not make a profit. Hence the need for regulations that govern
fertile eggs not being marketed for consumption.
