Spatial Integration and Price Transmission of Chicken Markets in Central Java, Indonesia
Full text linkThe study analyzed the spatial market integration and price transmission and proposed policy directions to enhance market efficiency of the chicken markets in Central Java Province, Indonesia for the period 2004-2009. Broiler and native chicken prices were increasing, especially during periods with religious activities. Broiler’s prices at the farm level fluctuated more than the wholesale and retail levels. Augmented Dickey Fuller test results showed that there was sufficient evidence for the non-stationarity of prices in all market locations. However, differencing all prices at the first level resulted in a stationary process. Pearson correlation test showed a strong correlation between all market pairs indicating a higher degree of market integration. The Law of One Price test results indicated there were four co-integrated market pairs in each market level. Four to five market pairs showed Granger Causality conditional at the farm, wholesale and retail levels. However, only a unidirectional price transmission was observed among the market pairs. The effect of imposition of import tariff policy and road distance was found significant in increasing prices at the retail level

Full text linkMalang, including Batu City, is a tempe-producing region with a characteristic tempe which is a dense texture. The characteristics of the typical tempe have encouraged many small industries and households that produce tempe chips. Batu City which is a tourist city with tempe chips as the main gift, makes the demand for tempe chips very high so that the market for this product is always there. This condition encourages 2 SMEs to produce tempe chips, namely "Fauzi" Tempe Chips (Mitra 1) and "Ibu Anah" UKM Tempe Chips (Mitra 2). The production process that is still done manually and using household-scale equipment by UKM Fauzi Tempe Chips and UKM Ibu Tempe causes less than optimal production results. The Problem of Mitra 1 (SME Tempe Chips "Fauzi") is the tempe chopper used is still tempe manual chopper. Problems with Mitra 2 (UKM "Tempa Chips" Ibu Anah ") are still using wooden handicrafts, the packaging process still uses hand sealers which have started to break, and the process of stripping and breaking soybeans in raw tempeh is still using a simple self-assembling machine. Management and sanitation issues are also a problem in both SMEs. The program implementation methods at both partners include increasing efficiency and capacity of Mitra 2 soybean stripping and solving, enhancing the capacity of cranes in Mitra 1, increasing packaging efficiency in partner 2, improving financial and marketing management in both partners, and assisting in the implementation of food production methods good in both partners. The team will also assist both partners with improved sanitation and assistance in the preparation and implementation of SSOP in both partners
PENINGKATAN KAPASITAS PRODUKSI PANGAN OLAHAN PADA KELOMPOK USAHA PRODUKTIF DI KECAMATAN SRENGAT, KABUPATEN BLITAR
Full text linkDi Kecamatan Srengat, Kabupaten Blitar, terdapat beberapa usaha produktif yang mengolah pangan seperti madumongso, sambel pecel, keripik pangsit, kue untruk yuyu, stick, dan kue bolu serta cake yang diproduksi Kelompok Wanita Tani (KWT) Mekar Jaya dan Usaha Kecil Menengah (UKM) Ananda. Permasalahan yang dihadapi oleh KWT Mekar Jaya adalah penggilingan bumbu dan kacang pada produksi sambel pecel tidak bisa dikerjakan sendiri karena tidak mempunyai alat mekanis. Penggilingan dilakukan di pasar sehingga tidak efisien. Permasalahan lain adalah pembentukan lembaran adonan pada proses produksi keripik pangsit yang masih manual sehingga membutuhkan waktu lama. Mitra juga masih mengemas menggunakan lilin sehingga beresiko pengemasan tidak sempurna. Permasalahan pada proses produksi olahan pangan di UKM Ananda adalah keterbatasan kapasitas akibat peralatan yang digunakan masih sederhana, skala rumah tangga dan kapasitas kecil. Titik kritis peningkatan kapasitas adalah pada proses pengadukan adonan dan pemanggangan. Keduanya selama ini menggunakan mixer kecil dan oven kecil. Permasalahan lain adalah proses pengemasan yang sering gagal karena alat hand sealer yang sudah tidak berfungsi dengan baik. Program ini bertujuan meningkatkan kapasitas produksi olahan pangan di KWT Mekar Jaya dan UKM Ananda. Program peningkatan kapasitas produksi dan mutu produk olahan di KWT Mekar Jaya dilakukan melalui fasilitasi peralatan produksi sambel pecel dan keripik pangsit berupa penggiling bumbu pecel dan pencetak lembaran adonan (sheeter). Perbaikan kualitas kemasan dilakukan melalui fasilitasi hand sealer dan perbaikan desain label kemasan. Program peningkatan kapasitas produksi dan mutu olahan UKM Ananda dilakukan melalui peningkatan kapasitas pemanggangan, pengadonan, dan perbaikan proses pengemasan. Perbaikan label kemasan akan dilakukan untuk kemasan keripik pangsit, sambel pecel, dan madumongso dengan fasilitasi alat pedal sealer. Dengan adanya fasilitasi peralatan ini, kedua mitra dapat meningkatkan kapasitas dan efisiensi produksi. Mitra juga telah melakukan diversifikasi produk olahannya mengguankan fasilitas peralatan dari program IbM ini
PENINGKATAN EFISIENSI PRODUKSI SAGON BAKAR SKALA INDUSTRI RUMAH TANGGA
Full text linkSagon bakar tersebut mempunyai cita rasa yang enak karena gurih, tidak keras, dan tampilan bagus. Proses pengolahan sagon bakar terkendala pada proses penepungan, pemarutan, penyangraian, dan pemanggangan yang tidak efisien. Mekanisasi proses produksi sagon bakar untuk proses penepungan, pemarutan, penyangraian, dan pemanggangan ditujukan untuk meningkatkan efisiensi produksi sagon bakar. Peningkatan konsistensi mutu produk dilakukan melalui penyusunan standard operating procedure (SOP) untuk setiap tahapan pengolahan sagon bakar. Hasil kegiatan melalui fasilitasi peralatan produksi, mitra berpeluang meningkatkan kapasitas dan efisiensi produksinya. Fasilitasi alat pemarut dapat mengefisienkan proses pemarutan kelapa muda dengan kapasitas 0,5 butir kelapa/menit atau 30 butir kelapa/jam. Adanya mekanisasi penepungan di tempat produksi mitra, menyebabkan proses penepnungan menjadi lebih efisien dengan kapasitas penepungan 50-100 kg/jam. Penyangraian merupakan tahapan proses yang selama ini dilakukan secara manual menggunakan wajan. Fasilitasi alat penyangrai mekanis untuk tepung ketan dan kelapa parut, meningkatkan efisiensi poduksi sagon bakar dengan kapasitas penyangraian 5 kg/batch dengan proses pengadukan mekanis. Pemanggangan merupakan titik kritis dan bottle neck pada proses produksi sagon bakar. Kapasitas pemanggangan yang kecil menyebabkan proses produksi menjadi lama. Fasilitasi 2 buah oven bertingkat meningkatkan kapasitas pemanggangan dan memungkinkan mitra melakukan diversifikasi produk. Adanya SOP dapat meningkatkan konsistensi mutu produk sagon bakar
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
