Description
Summary:Rice is the primary agricultural commodity in Malaysia and a crucial factor in terms of food security, poverty reduction, and social issues. Accordingly, numerous initiatives have been implemented to increase the yield of rice crops in this country. One of the initiatives by the government is the provision of subsidy assistance, also known as Agricultural Input Assistance. Nonetheless, a statistical report from the Department of Statistics Malaysia in 2023 demonstrates that the country's rice production has steadily declined, particularly from 2015 and onwards. As a result, the study was conducted using a qualitative methodology, and a total of 46 officials from agencies associated with rice cultivation and paddy farmers were chosen as respondents to determine the difficulties associated with subsidy provision. This study investigates the extent to which the Lean methodology is applied to the administration and distribution of subsidies to farmers. Lean philosophy centres on minimizing waste by eliminating all elements that incur costs without adding value to the end customer. The Lean principle comprises five fundamental components: value, value stream, create flow, establish pull, and pursue perfection. Adhering to these principles enables organizations to streamline their operations and achieve optimal efficiency. Lean uses its own tools and methods, which must be understood to detect and eradicate waste in the organization's work processes. The data in this study is analysed with the application Atlas.ti. According to the findings, Lean practices are only used in a very general sense, and their implementation does not adhere to Lean's philosophy and principles. This study has produced a conclusive action plan with significant impact, namely Value Stream Mapping, to improve the performance of subsidy distribution so that it is more systematic and efficient. The limitations of this study and recommendations for future research are also discussed in this study
