FAKTOR-FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHI TINGKAT KEUNTUNGAN DAN EFISIENSI PADA USAHA RAKYAT PERKEBUNAN KELAPA
Kelapa merupakan salahsatu komoditas perkebunan yang penting di Indonesia, baik dari aspek ekonomi maupun dari aspek sosial dan budayanya. Berdasarkan data tahun 2004, 97% usaha perkebunan kelapa dilakukan oleh petani rakyat. Maka di dalam konteks pembangunan pertanian, berbagai informasi mengenai faktor-faktor yang dapat mempengaruhi keuntungan dari usaha perkebunan tersebut merupakan simpul penting dalam upaya-upaya peningkatan produksi secara lebih efektif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk; (1) mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor yang dapat mempengaruhi tingkat keuntungan usaha perkebunan kelapa; dan (2) menentukan tingkat efisiensi produksi pada perkebunan kelapa yang diusahakan oleh petani kecil. Model Unit Output Price Cobb-Douglass Profit Function digunakan untuk menggambarkan hubungan antara tingkat keuntungan dengan faktor-faktor tersebut. Model tersebut kemudian dianalisis dengan menggunakan prosedur Seemingly Unrelated Regression (SUR) untuk menghasilkan parameter model. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa tingkat upah, harga pupuk dan pestisida, memberikan dampak yang signifikan secara negatif terhadap tingkat keuntungan. Lebih jauh, seluruh input tetap dan faktor demografis memberikan dampak signifikan postitif terhadap tingkat keuntungan tersebut. Selain itu, model analisis juga menunjukkan bahwa usaha perkebunan rakyat berada pada kondisi increasing return to scale, yang berarti bahwa keuntungan usaha perkebunan masih dapat ditingkatkan dengan menambah jumlah tenaga kerja, pupuk dan pestisida sampai pada titik optimum

Pryncypia ewangelizacji w dziełach egzegetycznych św. Bedy Czcigodnego
Although, among the works of St. Bede the Venerable there is none that would deal with the theory of evangelization in a systematic way, one has to admit that as a monk and a priest, St. Bede was deeply involved in the service of preaching the Word, and as a vir eruditissimus he left a literary legacy that could be helpful to all those who preach the Good News, both with respect to rhetoric and exegesis of the Holy Scripture. On the basis of St. Bede’s writings one can infer that he was concerned with propagation of the Gospel, with the lives of preachers and the effects of their activity. The present paper aims at a presentation of St. Bede’s thought concerning the principles of evangelization in the works which par excellence refer to the Divine Word and describe the word of life. The author draws from the exegetical works of St. Bede the Venerable a theological reflection on: 1) the attitudes and attributes of preachers; 2) the motivation for the service of preaching; 3) the goals of preaching the word.Chociaż wśród dzieł św. Bedy Czcigodnego nie ma ani jednego, który w sposób systematyczny zajmowałby się teorią ewangelizacji, trzeba przyznać, że jako mnich i kapłan, św. Beda był głęboko zaangażowany w posługę przepowiadania Słowa, a jako vir eruditissimus pozostawił spuściznę literacką, która może być pomocna dla wszystkich głosicieli Dobrej Nowiny, zarówno w zakresie retoryki, jak i egzegezy Pisma Świętego. Na podstawie pism św. Bedy można wnioskować, że zajmował się on propagowaniem Ewangelii, życiem kaznodziejów i efektami ich działalności. Niniejszy artykuł ma na celu przedstawienie myśli św. Bedy dotyczącej zasad ewangelizacji w dziełach, które par excellence odwołują się do Słowa Bożego i opisują słowo życia. Z dzieł egzegetycznych św. Bedy Czcigodnego autor czerpie teologiczną refleksję nad: 1) postawami i atrybutami kaznodziejów; 2) motywację do posługi przepowiadania; 3) cele głoszenia słowa
Agricultural Practice Assessment to Accelerate Organic Rice Farming Adoption: A Case Study in West Java, Indonesia
Rice is a crucial carbohydrate source for the world population’s food and global food security. The Indonesian government has tried to increase domestic production through the green revolution policy. The government has initiated concerns about enhancing rice quality through organic rice production. Organic rice has been emerging as an alternative to sustainable farming. Unfortunately, the acreage ratio to conventional farming is still relatively low, and productivity declined during the conversion period.This research aimed to explore deeply the agricultural practices between organic and conventional farming for fostering the adoption. That is why it is essential to be assessed comprehensively. This research focused on the organic rice farming production center in Subang and Tasikmalaya Regency, West Java Province. The total respondents were 203, consisting of 100 organic and 103 conventional smallholder farmers, respectively. Agricultural practice data of organic and conventional rice farming systemswere compared descriptively. Statistical analysis used Chi-square and t-test to test the significance of agricultural practices differences between the organic and conventional characteristics. The finding shows that organic rice farming had certain agricultural practices, such as farmers’ preferences to use variety, seedling, transplanting time, watering system, pest control, and fertilization approach. Organic farmers use a premium price-oriented variety, aromatic and red-rice types. Organic rice farmers produced their self-owned seed production. While in the cultivation technique, organic rice farming is considered to have more transplanting days, adopting alternate wetting and drying (AWD), using wide spacing at a minimum of 20x20 cm, and using an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) system
Identification of Factors Determining of Cocoa Seeds Adoption by Farmers
The productivity of smallholder cacao farmers is low due to the old plants and low adoption of superior seeds. The low adoption of superior seeds may be caused by multiple factors that are inter-related. This study aimed to assess factors that influenced farmers in the adoption of superior cacao seeds. The study is important in formulating a strategy that would increase the adoption of cacao seeds by farmers. The research was conducted in two regenciess of the cacao centre productions in Lampung Province (i.e. Pesawaran and North Lampung), from May to August 2012. The survey was conducted through a direct interview with 103 farmers in the study locations. Data on the respondences's characteristics were analyzed descriptively. Factors that may affect the adoption was analysed using a structural equation model (SEM). The results showed there were three most determining factors in the adoption of superior cocoa seeds, such as farmer's preference, seed availability and external factors. Price of seeds was not an important factor in adoption of seeds. Hence, productivity, resistant to pests and diseases, productive age, fertilizer efficiency, ease of plant management, seed quality, seed vigor, availability/ease to access and dissemination method have important role to adoption process. The study implies that the strategy to increase seed adoption is providing superior cocoa seeds based on the farmers' preference and establishing the seed productions's regions in the cocoa center production areas to ease of their accessibilities. In addition, the dissemination of information on the seeds superior characters should be promoted

The Role of the Holy Spirit in the Life of the Church Based on Bede the Venerable’s "Commentary on the Acts of the Apostles"
W przedstawionym artykule zostało omówione nauczanie Bedy Czcigodnego zawarte w jego komentarzu do Dziejów Apostolskich na temat roli Ducha Świętego w życiu Kościoła. Autor komentarza niewiele miejsca poświęca omówieniu prawdy o bóstwie Ducha Świętego. Znaczenie szerzej, zgodnie z treścią Dziejów, omawia Jego rolę w życiu Kościoła I wieku. Tak więc wyposaża On Apostołów w niezbędne dary do głoszenia Ewangelii. Wspiera ich mądrością w chwili podejmowania ważnych dla Kościoła decyzji, jest obecny w sakramencie chrztu świętego, przezwycięża złe duchy i skłania wiernych do odnowy swego życia. Wszyscy, którzy chcą otrzymać dary Ducha Świętego muszą zerwać z grzechem i otworzyć się na Jego działanie poprzez modlitwę. Nauczanie Bedy na temat Ducha Świętego jest osadzone w tradycji ojców Kościoła i ma zdecydowanie wymiar pastoralny.
The article presented here discusses the teaching of Bede the Venerable in his commentary on the Acts of the Apostles on the role of the Holy Spirit in the life of the Church. The author of the commentary dedicates little space to discussing the truth of the divinity of the Holy Spirit. Much more extensively, in keeping with the content of the Acts, he elaborates on His role in the life of the first-century Church. Thus, He equips the Apostles with the necessary gifts to preach the Gospel. He supports them with wisdom when they make important decisions for the Church, is present in the sacrament of baptism, overcomes evil spirits and prompts the faithful to renew their lives. All who wish to receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit must abandon sin and open themselves to His works through prayer. Bede's teaching on the Holy Spirit is embedded in the tradition of the Fathers of the Church and has a decidedly pastoral dimension

Bullying case is rife in Indonesia, it is a severe blow to the pattern of Indonesian education. Bullying does not only hurt someone physically but further psychologically. This is the basis for the author to critically analyze the representation of anti-abuse culture found in the song lyrics of "Gajah" song of Tulus using the Teun A. Van Dijk approach as his scalpel. This was done as an effort to participate in the anti-bullying campaign. The song "Gajah" from Tulus was chosen because Tulus was a musician whose songs were heard by various groups. The method used is descriptive which is combined with Teun A. Van Dijk's approach as the research scalpel. The song "Gajah" is considered to have voiced a lot of anti-bullying, starting from someone who is always bullied to being able to rise from bullying. This research is expected to be used as reference material as well as anti-bullying media because the song lyrics of "Gajah" from Tulus are a mirror of the anti-bullying culture that seeks to prevent bully behavior that is prevalent in schools and communities
Livelihood vulnerability household fishermen household due to climate change in Lampung Province, Indonesia.
The livelihood of small-scale fishers is highly dependent on marine resources and coastal areas while the condition of marine waters is increasingly unpredictable due to seasonal uncertainty and extreme weather due to climate variability. This condition has a negative impact on fish catches and the income of small-scale fishermen. The study results were obtained through interviews with respondents using a structured questionnaire. Sampling was carried out using multistage random sampling based on the type and number of ships controlled (1 GT-5GT). The total sample of respondents interviewed was 166 fishing households, consisting of 36 respondents from Bandar Lampung City, 65 respondents from South Lampung Regency, and 65 respondents from Tanggamus Regency. Data was evaluated using three analysis methods, namely household income structure, indicators of income vulnerability, and adaptation mechanisms. Income structure and income vulnerability use a quantitative approach, while adaptation mechanisms use a qualitative approach. The results of this empirical study found that the source of income of traditional capture fisher households is from: fishing business (on the farm) averaged 82.22%, in Tanggamus Regency, the proportion reached 86.22%. The income vulnerability index of traditional capture fisher households (LVI-IPCC value) in Bandar Lampung City and South Lampung Regency is positive (0.39 and 0.36). The income vulnerability index of traditional fishermen in Tanggamus Regency is negative -0.29. Fishermen employ an adaptation mechanism that engaged the five fundamental facets of income capital, namely natural capital, human capital, physical capital, financial capital, and social capital
