VEGETABLE BASKET
"So this is Mr. RT, and the residents are all sorry to patronize." said Fathan, with a smile to pay his respects to all the residents who still live there.
"Continue!" replied Mr. RT.
"Every member of the joint venture group, will definitely give up land management to be used as agricultural land.the land that is handed over to its management, then the land becomes the property of the group. But not the full ownership, but the land use right to be utilized."
"Continue?"
"After the management of the land becomes the right of the group, the obligation of its group members, is to take care of, care for, sell the proceeds. Nah! from the sales profit it will be divided equally!" fathan continued the discussion.
"How to divide the result, how?"
"How to share the results, very easy! we farm need capital.for the initial stage, then we will divide the results after our capital returns."
"Oh old dong, we get results like that?:
"No! it will not be long. our capital example is 500 million, Put it! income of 100 million a month, then after 5 months, we have got the results of our agriculture. 100 million divided, if you join 20 people. so in the 6th month everyone who joined the group. get a result of 5 million per month, it's the first alternative.the second alternative, I will provide a salary according to UMR Sukabumi Regency. the rest is just used to pay capital, but this takes a very long time until we can get a yield of 5 million per month." Fathan explained in great detail, making the residents who were about to look at each other and ask.
"Emang UMR What regency?" Ask RT.
"2.5 Million, sir!"
"Just like with such money income, our standard of living will rise.usually our village family spending is only 30 to Rp30,000 per day." replied Mr. RT making the residents of mangosteen, justifying what was delivered by their village chief.
"About 5 million per month, if we use the second alternative, when?"
"Easy! that means if our income is 100 million per month. minus 50 million for the salaries of the members 2.5 million. then the rest 50 million. stay 500 divided by 50. means the new 11th month we can feel the income of that size."
"Well! like the second alternative is very tempting, we don't have to wait 5 months to get results."
"It's up to the agreement of the group members, me as the provider. I just hold and carry out what the members want."
"But if his income is divided equally, what people who own a large land like me, can get more. Later I can lose dong, if my income is equal to the income of Badru, who only has 700 meters of land."
Getting questions like that Fathan just smiled. "Sorry before, we established this business group.The goal is to advance the village, not advance individuals! so all the members have to come forward, without seeing the land investment, because we'll take care of it together!" fathan answered with understanding.
"Can't if my land is taken care of by myself, with the help of Fathan. later the harvest I sell to Fathan." asked Mr. RT.
"It can be, please! but own capital, my own way of farming.I only help as much as I can, as I can."
"That means you can't, if it's like that?"
"Can't do it, sir! because if we plant our own plants will be the same, because we will choose the management of plants that are easy to take care of. when our plants are the same, then the price will go down. because of the many items that must be sold. different if we take care of the land together, Besides We can master all the science of agriculture, about the procedure of growing vegetables. We can also control the production, so as not to overflow!" Obviously Fathan made Mr. RT grumble to understand what was conveyed by the young man.
"How the citizens, have understood what Fathan said, if I have begun to understand." Ask Mr. RT while dividing his gaze towards the citizens.
"Understanding!" answer the people in unison.
"Yes already! if everything is understood, we will start from determining How to share our results, about what kind of division of results, want the first or the second?" ask Fathan.
"The second one?" answer them in unison.
"Oh yes, Tan! what is the name of our joint venture? it must have a dong name, so it's good to call it." said Mr. RT gave advice.
"Until I forget to name. our farmer's business group is. "vegetable basket"
"Because I want this joint business group of ours.to be a reservoir of inspiration, a reservoir of aspirations, a reservoir of our agricultural products, a container of the lightening of our lives like a basket in general, like a basket in general, which could ease all our work." Fathan explained his philosophy.
"Good! good one!" praise mr. ustad.
"But every group must have an organizational structure in order for it to be organized, because according to Mr. Ustad, the unorganized good will be defeated by organized error. Isn't that so, Mr Ustad ?" Fathan asked as he looked towards the ustad sir, who was stared at even nodded as if confirming what was said by Fathan. "We need a chairman, vice chairman, secretary treasurer and other sections!"
Finally that night the members of the business group together with the vegetable basket.determine who will be their chairman. Residents also agreed to choose Fathan who will be the chairman of KUB. vegetable basket, while the treasurer is Farah, the vice chairman is Kamal. but the unfilled is the secretary."
"How about Zahra's son, Mr. Ustad, who becomes secretary!" proposed Mr RT.
"Please! you can, because the education of my child's boarding school is finished. Pity him if he stays at home." replied Mr. Ustad.
"Please call for Zahra tea!" Exclaim Mr. RT the same little boy who joined.
Quickly the little boy ran, heading towards Mr. Ustad's house, shortly waiting for the boy to return, followed by Zahra.
Mr. Ustad began to explain what they wanted to do. finally after getting an explanation, Zahra also agreed with the decision of the residents who made him as secretary.
After the organization was formed, Fathan also gave directions to the residents, to immediately hand over the stewardship of the land, to the vegetable basket so that the land could be processed immediately.
Finally, the meeting that night was closed by prayer by Mr. Ustad, the residents who joined the joint business group, they came home with a New Hope, to change their lives, to improve.
The next morning, the residents began to sign an agreement to transfer land management made by a joint business group, after the handover of land management. They also began to build their business empire chaired by Fathan.
We postpone the story of Fathan who is developing a farm in his village, we will tell a week before in a different place, but still one story.
We will tell a story that we have not discussed for a long time, we will return to the sparkling city of Jakarta.
At the property office located on TB Simatupang street, there was a girl who was playing a pen, scribbling paper by holding her chin with her hand. Like someone who shows confusion.
Because ever since he knew his lover wanted to farm, his family refused, because both his parents, they want to have a daughter-in-law who can continue their company, not choose to farm. so that the happiness that was in front of the eyes, disappeared instantly, disappeared like smoke that was hit by the wind.
Even Fathan after getting rejection from both parents, he actually went from Jakarta, without giving any news back.A few times Kirana, even almost every day contact the man, he really, but at all the man never picked it up. if he only picked up a little chatter, then the phone was cut off. made Kirana more and more urgency and her life felt empty.
That afternoon after the break time arrived, the beautiful woman stopped her doodles. With a slow breath He began to rise from his seat leaving the throne that felt not exciting. He went out to the canteen, to fill his completely unappetizing stomach. Arriving at the cafeteria were seen some employees who were eating while chatting.
"Great yes, Mr. Fathan! kirain me he just jokingly wanted to farm, but seeing his success now.I am very amazed, because I had time to know the best people and as smart as him." there was the voice of the employee who mentioned the name of the person he was thinking about.
Kirana quickly joined them, making the employees silent for a moment, feeling miserable with the status of their superior child.
"What are you guys talking about? I think it's serious." asked Kirana.
"It's Mom! Mr. Fathan, make a YouTube channel about farming. Great now, he's been a successful farmer." Praise Andi while showing her phone.
Kirana glanced at him for a while, but she focused on the channel account name indicated. "Why do you show it to me, I don't know that arrogant person!" kirana's reply showed an annoyed look, making Andi pull back his phone.
"Sorry Mom! Sorry I just feel proud, having a friend with integrity like Mr. Fathan."
Hearing Andi's words, Kirana got up and approached the waiter, then He told her to pack her food, because according to her confession, her appetite disappeared instantly.
Arriving in the office room, he quickly locked the pintun, then opened the food he just bought. while eating, Kirana took the phone from the bag. then he opened the video publisher application and wrote in the search box with the words "vegetable basket"
"The darker you are, the sweeter.like soy sauce that always makes a savory taste in every dish." muttered Kirana, her eyes constantly focused on seeing the person in the video, who was there, he was explaining the farm he was working on.
