Village Government Strategy in Management of Village Fund Budget (ADD): A Case Study of Halimbe Plantation Village, Aek Natas District, North Labuhanbatu Regency in 2015

Introduction

The management of village funds is a crucial aspect of village development, and the Village Fund Budget (ADD) is a vital component of this process. In Indonesia, the ADD is a source of funding for village development programs, and its effective management is essential for the well-being of the community. This case study examines the strategy of the Halimbe Plantation Village government in managing the ADD, with a focus on the relationship between the village government and the plantation company PT. Scofindo, which operates in the region.

The Importance of Village Fund Budget (ADD) Management

The ADD is a vital source of funding for village development programs, and its effective management is essential for the well-being of the community. The ADD is used to finance various development programs, including infrastructure development, education, and healthcare. However, the management of the ADD is often hampered by various obstacles, including limited sources of village funds, inadequate human resources, and lack of communication between the village government and the community.

The Relationship between Village and Company Government

One of the key findings of this study is the dependency between the Halimbe plantation village government and the plantation company PT. Scofindo. This dependency is caused by the location of the village in the company's rights (HGU), which limits the village's autonomy in budget management. While this dependency can provide benefits to the village through corporate social funds, it can also limit the village's ability to manage its own funds effectively.

Constraints in ADD Management

Several obstacles in the management of ADD in the Halimbe plantation village were identified in this study. First, the limited source of village funds is a challenge for the village government in implementing various development programs. Second, inadequate human resources in the village hamper effectiveness in budget management. In addition, the lack of communication between the village government and the community also hampers community participation in development. Finally, regulations set by plantation companies can be a barrier, especially if the regulation is not in line with the needs and priorities of villagers.

ADD Management Strategy

To overcome the existing obstacles, the Village Government of Halimbe Plantation applies several strategies in managing the Village Fund Budget. First, the village government is trying to recognize the priority of the needs of the community through deliberations involving all levels of citizens. Second, the importance of involving the company in the Village Development Planning Deliberation (Musrenbangdes) so that there is harmony between the village development program and contributions that can be given by the company. Third, supervision of company responsibilities is also part of the strategy, to ensure that the company's contribution is truly felt by the community. Finally, improving the quality of human resources (HR) of village communities through leadership training held by the district government is an important step to encourage the active participation of the community in ADD management.

Conclusion

In conclusion, this research shows that the strategy of the Halimbe plantation village government in managing the Village Fund Budget (ADD) is greatly influenced by the relationship with the company and various obstacle factors that must be overcome. By involving the community and companies in every stage of planning and implementation, it is expected that ADD management in this village can be carried out effectively and have a positive impact on the development of the village as a whole. The right strategy and good collaboration between the village government, the community, and the company are the key to success in managing village funds going forward.

Recommendations

Based on the findings of this study, several recommendations can be made to improve the management of the Village Fund Budget (ADD) in the Halimbe plantation village. First, the village government should continue to involve the community and companies in every stage of planning and implementation to ensure that the needs and priorities of the community are met. Second, the village government should improve the quality of human resources (HR) of village communities through leadership training held by the district government. Finally, the village government should supervise company responsibilities to ensure that the company's contribution is truly felt by the community.

Limitations of the Study

This study has several limitations. First, the study was conducted in a single village, which may not be representative of other villages in the region. Second, the study relied on qualitative data collection methods, which may not provide a comprehensive understanding of the issues. Finally, the study did not examine the impact of the ADD management strategy on the development of the village.

Future Research Directions

Several future research directions can be identified based on the findings of this study. First, a study can be conducted to examine the impact of the ADD management strategy on the development of the village. Second, a study can be conducted to examine the relationship between the village government and the company in other villages in the region. Finally, a study can be conducted to examine the effectiveness of leadership training in improving the quality of human resources (HR) of village communities.
