ABSTRACT
COVID-19 has affected the operation of many sectors including the agriculture sector. The outbreak of COVID-19 has effect operational activities especially in the Oil Palm plantation. This study is aimed to identify the effect of pandemic COVID-19 on operational activities in oil Palm production. The effect of operational activities that are being studied is a worker’s health condition, access to input supply, the management of field operation, and the cost of production. Through data collection method by questionnaire were distributed to 35 respondents from Ladang Kumpulan Melayu Kota Tinggi, Johor. Based on demographic analysis, most of the respondents have more than 20 years of experience in the field. Based on the study, the management of field operation is the major effect that influences the oil palm production with β= 0.486 and correlation for relationship is 0.017. When the new legislation of standard operating procedure is implemented then it will influence oil palm production. The access to input supply has a significant difference with oil palm production due to pandemic COVID-19 rather than the other three variables. If the supply is limited, it also will affect the quality of the yield. When there is a movement control order (MCO), the company cannot access the input needed for operation in the oil palm plantation
