ANALISIS RANTAI NILAI (VALUE CHAIN) PADA KOMODITAS LADA DI DESA TRIGADU KECAMATAN GALING KABUPATEN SAMBAS
Full text linkPenelitian ini untuk mengetahui aktor rantai nilai komoditas lada, keuntungan petani, marjin pemasaran lada, dan mengkaji potensi dan hambatan rantai nilai komoditas lada. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode survey. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan teknik snowball sampling untuk mengambil lembaga pemasaran dan informan kunci, sedangkan sampel petani dilakukan dengan sampel acak sederhana. Jumlah sampel dalam penelitian ini sebanyak 54 responden yang terdiri dari 4 penyedia input produksi, 31 petani, 14 pedagang, 9 konsumen, dan 4 informan kunci. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian diketahui para pelaku yang terlibat dalam rantai nilai komoditas lada yakni penyedia input produksi, petani, pedagang, konsumen, perbankan, koperasi unit desa, balai penyuluh pertanian dan dinas perkebunan. Pendapatan bersih yang diperoleh oleh petani lada sebesar Rp 23.937.613 per 0,8 hektar per tahun. Pada aliran produk untuk pasar domestik marjin pemasaran terbesar didapatkan oleh pedagang pengecer (retail) sebesar Rp. 9.000,- per kilogram, sedangkan aliran produk untuk pasar ekspor marjin pemasaran terbesar didapatkan oleh pedagang kabupaten yakni sebesar Rp. 8.000,- per kilogram.. Potensi utama komoditas lada yakni harga jual dan pangsa pasar, sedangkan hambatan utama yaitu kurangnya pengetahuan petani tentang teknik budidaya yang baik dan belum ada teknologi pengolahan.

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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Efisiensi Kinerja Rantai Pasok Kopi Robusta Di Kabupaten Kubu Raya
Full text linkDemand for Robusta coffee is increasing every year, but this situation is not matched with the amount of its availability. This raises problems, especially those related to guaranteeing continuity of coffee quality, limited supply availability, and timeliness of sales. Therefore, this study aims to identify the structure of the Robusta coffee supply chain and analyze the efficiency of the Robusta coffee supply chain performance in Kubu Raya Regency. The method used to identify the structure of the supply chain is descriptive analysis, while the DEA method is used to analyze the efficiency of the members performance of the supply chain. The results indicate that the structure of the supply chain consists of farmers, collectors, wholesalers, and retailers. Overall, the results of the performance efficiency measurement show that the performance of the Robusta coffee supply chain is efficient. However, there are still 4 farmers and 1 trader with inefficient performance, namely DMU1,2,6, and 7 at the farmer level, while at the trader level it is in DMU 5. Therefore, improvements are needed to improve the performance of the supply chain actors by reducing the variable input and increasing the output variabl
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
