Kimpul (Xanthosoma sagittifolium) is one of the local products that produce non-rice carbohydrates that have the potential to be developed. The potential of kimpul tubers can be developed by utilizing it into various types of processed products to provide value. The kimpul tubers can be processed into kimpul chips, kimpul sticks, or other preparations. Meanwhile, kimpul flour can be processed into various products, including wet noodles, biscuits, cookies, pastries, or other processed forms. From the various diversification of processed products, it has the potential to be developed into food industry products. For this reason, it is necessary to analyze the value of the various preparations in terms of product performance and required production costs. The purpose of this study was to determine the performance of various kimpul preparations with various criteria, analyze the production costs of various kimpul preparations, conduct value analysis of various kimpul preparations based on performance and cost analysis, and provide recommendations for the type of product that is able to provide the best value. Product performance is based on the parameters of organoleptic properties, product attractiveness, product benefits, and product purchase decisions. The value of the product is analyzed based on the benefits of the product and the costs required to realize these benefits. The results of product value analysis show that products that have high benefits, but only require relatively low costs provide high product values. Alternative products that are recommended to be produced are kimpul chips, kimpul sticks, and kimpul cookies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
