FARMERS INSTITUTIONAL STRENGTHENING WITH AGRIBUSINESS MODEL OF PADDY RICE BREEDING THROUGH KKN-PPM PROGRAM OF LAKIDENDE UNIVERSITY
Full text linkA study of agribusiness model of breeding of rice paddy seeds throught community development program (KKN)- community empowerment learning (PPM) of Lakidende Univercity aimed to increase institutional capacity of farmers in producing rice seed products with the use of high quality rice varieties. So far, the access to high quality rice seedlings in the farmer group business unit of rice seed breeders is still low and limited procurement in every rice planting season. Mean while, the need of rice seed in Konawe Recency averagely 415.000 tons of planting season with the fulfillment of seed supply from breeder farmer group only about 87.830 tons of planting season (21,16 %). In the study method with KKN-PPM spproach, the students and society conducted a study of the implementation of agribusiness field schools (SL-A) in farmer group of rice seed breeders in Ambuulanu village, Pondidaha sub-district, Konawe Regency. The study was implemented for 33 working days (July- Agusts 2016). The result of study of farmer institutional strengthening on the farmer group of paddy rice breeder farming unit showed that the institutional strengthening system of farmer group of paddy rice breeder in rural communities with the application of model field school agribusiness in the implementation of KKN-PPM program, is potentially able to meet the supply of high quality seeds with the average production as mush as 456.5 tons of rice seed ready to spread in each wet season rice fiel, and effective in the learning model of rural community empowerment with Univercity in Konawe district area
AGROINDUSTRI KAKAO UNTUK MENINGKATKAN PENDAPATAN MASYARAKAT PETANI DI KABUPATEN KONAWE
Full text linkTujuan inovasi agroindustri kakao adalah menerapkan teknik fermentasi biji kakao dengan menggunakan kotak fermentasi yang didesain khusus guna meningkatkan kualitas biji kakao pada usahatani kakao rakyat, sehingga memiliki nilai jual yang lebih tinggi dan dapat meningkatkan pendapatan petani kakao. Nilai ekonomi produk kakao rakyat masih dominan diperoleh dari produk primer menyebabkan perolehan pendapatan per satuan unit produk usahatani kakao tergolong relatif rendah. Nilai tambah komoditas kakao dapat diperoleh masyarakat dengan cara melakukan fermentasi biji kakao dalam proses pasca panen kakao. Masalahnya adalah bagaimana meningkatkan kualitas biji kakao dalam proses pascapanen menjadi produk biji kakao fermentasi yang mempunyai nilai jual yang lebih tinggi sehingga dapat meningkatkan pendapatan petani kakao. Teknik fermentasi kakao dilakukan dengan cara: (a) biji kakao basah dimasukkan kedalam kotak fermentasi ukuran 30x30x30 cm (p.l.t) selama 48-27 jam, (b) pembalikan dan pengadukan biji kakao, (c) pengontrolan suhu biji kakao minimal 52 derajat celsius, (d) pencucian biji kakao, (e) pengeringan biji kakao, serta (f) penyimpanan dan pengemasan biji kakao. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai produk biji kakao fermentasi dapat meningkatkan harga jual kakao kualitas fermentasi (52,17 persen) dan meningkatkan nilai pendapatan usahatani kakao rakyat sebesar Rp 23.268.000,00.-/ha per tahun dalam masyarakat perkebunan
HUBUNGAN SIKAP PETANI TERHADAP PENERAPAN TEKNOLOGI PANCA USAHA TANI PADI SAWAH DI KABUPATEN KONAWE PROPINSI SULAWESI TENGGARA
No full textSecara Kuantitatif dan kualitatif belum tercapainya optimalisasi produksi dan produktivitas usahatani padi smvah di Kabupaten Konmve, diduga sebagai akibat rendahnya sikap dan kemampuan petani dalam menerapkan teknologi Panca Usaha Tani (PUT) padi sawah. Kondisi objektif pengelolaan usahatani padi sawah menunjukkan bahwa tingkat produktivitas usaha tani yang masih terkategori rendah sekitar 53,33 persen dan sikap petani terhadap keberlanjutan penerapan teknologi PUT mempunyai hubungan harapan produksi dan produktivitas usahatani padi yang tinggi baru mencapai 46,67 persen sesuai respon petani yang sangat setuju dan untuk menerapkan teknologi PUT. Produksi padi sawah terdata dalam Lima tahunan cenderung terlihat meningkat lebih banyak disebabkan oleh akibat penambahan luas areal penanaman baru (ekstensifikasi), dan hanya sebagian kecil disebabkan oleh sikap petani untuk menerapkan teknologi Panca Usaha Tani padi sawah secara sempurna. Hasil analisis hubungan sikap petani terhadap penerapan teknologi PUT padi sawah menunjukkan hubungan yang sedang atau cukup signifikan yang ditunjukkan dengan nilai korelasi (r=0,47) berdasarkan analisis uji korelasi pearson dan nilai skore skala Linkert. Artinya variabel sikap petani terhadap penerapan teknologi Panca Usaha Tani mempunyai hubungan sedang atau cukup signifikan pengaruhnya terhadap keberlanjutan penggunaan teknologi PUT dalam peningkatan persatuan areal produksi dan produktivitas usahatani padi sawah di wilayah Kabupaten Konmve
Partisipasi Petani dalam Pembangunan Pedesaan di Kabupaten Konawe
Full text linkThis study is proposed in answering to the question of “What types of partisipation do farmers give in developing Rurals Areas in Regency of Konawe”. This study was conducted in the rural areas of farmers who have joined in farmer groups, included outlying rural areas and swasembada rural areas in the Regency of Konawe. Technique of choosing samples was carried out by ”cluster purposive sampling”, i.e., firstly, population is grouped based on regions/rural areas, then 5 respondents are chosen purposively from every farmer (member of farmer group) who have been choosen from 10 rural areas. Finally, 50 samples of respondents are chosen (farmers who are members of farmer group). Data collection was undertaken by three methods, they are: (1) indepth observation, (2) indepth interview, and (3) focus group discussion (FGD). Questions on the implementation of rural area development in list of questionnaire forms are formulated into three stages of categories; they are full participation (PP) with score 3, partly/moderate participation (PS) with score 2, and less participation with score 1. The result shows that type of farmers participations mostly are categorized into partly/moderate participation, that is 72 percent, and the rest, respectively, are 10.66 percent for full participation and 17,34 percent for less participation. Types of participations in developing rural areas in Regency of Konawe were carried out through three models of participation approach, i.e., farmer participation in developing means and infrastructure of rural areas, participation in strengthening sosio-economical rural areas, and participation in improving output of rural area farming. In conclusion, opportunity, competence, and willingness of farmers to take part in developing rural areas are very low because of the barrier of social system from elite groups in rural areas, as well as it is mostly influenced by the dependence of government program realization, as well as social mobilization which is most familiar in rural communities. Therefore, farmers are given few opportunities actively and really in developing their rural areas.Keywords: farmer participation, rural development, social and community prosperit
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
