Oil palm is agricultural that has excellent potential as a producer of vegetable oil globally, and oil palm plantations contribute to providing jobs for thousands of people in Indonesia. The greater a company, the more efficiency of work is needed. This research represents an effort to find a more efficient brondolanan transportation tool for workers in oil palm plantations. The study was conducted in May 2019 in two locations, the first location in Terusan Village, the second location in PT. Sinarmas, Manis Mata District, West Kalimantan. Data analysis uses descriptive analysis methods where the respondents of this study are employees of PT. Sinarmas as many as 30 people. The results showed that the utilization of tengkalang as a carrier brondolanan for workers in PT. Sinarmas is more effective and also more cost-effective. One unit has a lifespan of more than six months with a cost per unit of Rp. 20,000. While the black bucket per unit has a benefit period of three months with a cost per unit of Rp. 15,000. Then the result of cost analysis is calculated in one year, using tengkalang more efficiently by buying tengkalang Rp. 40.000 / year, while the black bucket purchase cost Rp. 60.000 / year. In addition, usingtengkalang means that the Company also participates in the welfare of surrounding communities to progress and grow together to improve the development of families and villages.

Oil palm is one of the plantation crops in Indonesia which has the fastest development compared to the other plantation crops, one of them is in the oil palm smallholder farmers sector. However, this development has not been completely and evenly distributed, so that the condition of oil palm plantations in the world is considered not in harmony with oil palm smallholder farmers in rural areas. The level of harmony can be measured based on the level of welfare of the existing oil palm smallholder farmers. The research objective was to determine the welfare of oil palm smallholder farmers in Pangkalan Banteng, Central Kalimantan. The methods used were a survey and direct field observation. The farmer who became the research respondents were selected using purposive sampling. The number of respondents was 100. The questionnaire was measured using the Likert scale. The results of the study showed that most of the oil palm farmers in Pangkalan Banteng were in a prosperous standard of living, as evidenced by the fact that oil palm farming was able to meet the consumption needs of all family members, the ownership of savings for the future, the ownership of valuable and durable goods, as well as able to provide social assistance and permanent home ownership. However, some farmer families were still below the prosperous category due to the low productivity of their farming and the small area of land they have, so their income was still low.
