Trend Analysis of Red Chili Price-Formation Models
Red chili’s characteristic flavor has been a popular element in Indonesian cuisine. A large and continuous demand for red chili is inconsistent with production volumes, causing frequent and extreme price fluctuations throughout the year. This study explores the changing trends in red chili prices to identify the influencing factors. The study was conducted in the Sleman district of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Time-series datasets of monthly production rates and prices of chili for 3 years were subject to multiple linear regression analysis. The study found a rising trend in prices in the Sleman Regency from January 2014 to December 2016. The factors significantly influencing the red chili prices was the price of cayenne pepper. The production cost of chili, the price of tomatoes, and the price of chili for the previous 2 months had only partial and nonsignificant effects. The timing of great Muslim celebrations, such as Eid Al-Fitr and Eid Al-Adha had no significant effect on the price of red chili. However, Christmas and New Year events were associated with higher prices

Sorgum (Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench.) merupakan bahan pangan lokal yang dapat digunakan sebagai pengganti beras. Sorgum memiliki kadar protein tidak tinggi, sehingga proses substitusi dengan kacang-kacangan atau proses perkecmabhan biji sorgum diharapkan menjadi solusi untuk meningkatkan kadar protein produk berbasis sorgum. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui karakteristik proksimat nasi sorgum dan nasi kecambah sorgum tersubstitusi kacang tunggak. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif eksperimental dengan perbandingan sorgum atau kecambah sorgum dengan kacang tunggak sebesar 90:10, 70:30 dan 50:50. Hasilpenelitian menunjukkan komposisi proksimat nasi sorgum mengalami perubahan seiring dengan meningkatnya substitusi kacang tunggak dan perkecambahan. Semakin besar substitusi kacang tunggak meningkatkan kadar protein dan kadar abu namun menurunkan kadar air, kadar lemak, dan kadar karbohidrat nasi sorgum sedangkan perkecambahan sorgum cenderung menaikkan kadar protein dan kadar air namun menurunkan kadar abu, kadar lemak dan kadar karbohidrat nasi kecambah sorgum
Design Conformity of Indonesian-Made Mini Rice Combine Harvester and Anthropometry of Javanese Farmers
The combine harvester in Yogyakarta Province Special Region has a small size because it is used to harvest rice in a narrow area. The purpose of this study is to determine which parts of the mini combine harvester machine are not ergonomic and need to be improved so that the operator can work comfortably and safely. The types of mini combine harvester machines investigated in this study are QUICK H140R, TANIKAYA Ironbee HT12, and JAP001. Results showed that, for the three combine harvester machines, there was a mismatch in the physical size of the engine and the anthropometry of the operator. The main problems of the mini combine harvester machine are less ergonomic seat, inappropriate placement of the control table, hand activity in the maximum area, narrow workspace for leg movements, and less supportive footstep for the operator to work while standing. This information is expected to be utilized by Indonesian mini combine harvester machine designers so that the new design of combine harvester machines will be ergonomic, safe, and comfortable

Fortification is one of the promising techniques for decreasing micronutrient deficiency problem, particularly in vitamin A and iron cases. This research aimed to investigate the effect of encapsulated vitamin A and iron fortification on cassava flour and its application on flakes product. Cassava flour was fortified with 5.6 mg/kg of encapsulated vitamin A (retinyl palmitate) for a single treatment, and also combined with 31 mg/kg of encapsulated iron (FeSO4.7H20). Non-fortified cassava flour was used as control. Results showed no significant differences in water content (10.09±0.24 – 10.71±1.76) and the cassava flour’s whiteness degree (98.11±0.13 – 98.85±0.12) for each treatment (p> 0.05). However, with iron levels of (7.42±0.09 – 28.20±0.96) and vitamin A of (0.05). Furthermore, level of iron and vitamin A in flakes was increased, positively correlated with fortificant concentration. Fortification with combined treatment (vitamin A and iron) reduced bioaccessibility of vitamin A (51.24±1.32), but significantly improved bioaccessibility of iron (77.69±1.45). Based on organoleptic test, all fortified flakes were acceptable ±5 (rather preferred) to be consumed

Consumption of black soybean tempe can provide rapid improvement in children with poor nutritional status and/or suffering from diarrhea. The antioxidant activity of black soybean tempe is higher than yellow soybean tempe. This study aimed to examine the effect of the amount of black soybean tempe in the feed on hematological status, IgG levels, and IgA levels of rat blood. There was a total of 6 groups, each containing 5 rats. The rats were kept in animal laboratories at room temperature (25–27°C) for 25 days. The six groups were induced Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) suspension with a concentration of 107 CFU / mL of 1 mL per day for seven days, orally using a feeding tube. Parameters analyzed included hematology status, IgG levels and IgA levels. The administration of black soybean tempe had an effect on increasing hemoglobin levels, the number of erythrocytes and the percentage of hematocrit, and it gave the effect of decreasing the number of leukocytes and platelets of rat blood induced with EPEC bacteria. The group of rats that consumed black soybean tempe had no influence on IgG and IgA levels of blood plasma
Uji Deteriorasi Terkontrol (UDT) untuk Memperkirakan Masa Simpan Benih Kedelai (Glycine max (L.) Merr.)
Deterioration of seeds during storage may reduce the supply of high-quality seeds which become the limiting factor of soybean production in tropical countries. Controlled Deterioration Test (CDT) is one of the fastest vigor testing methods. The objective of this study was to achieve the suitable moisture content and duration of CDT treatment in soybean seed, then establish a model that associated with the seed vigor in the field after a certain time of storage. Split-plot with 2 factors, namely seed varieties and the combination of moisture content and heat exposure duration were used to determine the influence of CDT treatment. Another split-plot for 2 factors, namely storage period and seed varieties were used to determine the effect of shelf life. Viability parameters were observed by germination strength (GS) and seedling vigor index (VI), using a rolled paper towel method. The results showed that there was an interaction between soybean seed varieties and the combination of seed moisture content treatment with duration of CDT exposure. Sindoro and Tanggamus varieties had higher viability and storability than other varieties. Combinations of 28% seed moisture content for 24 hours CDT duration were sensitive enough to evaluate the physiological potential of soybean seeds, providing information that was closely related to seed germination after stored for 1 month.
