    IMPLEMENTASI PEMANFAATAN KOTORAN SAPI SEBAGAI SUMBER ENERGI ALTERNATIF PADA PETERNAKAN SAPI

    No full text
    Kecamatan Betung merupakan salah satu Kecamatan yang berada dalam wilayah Kabupaten Banyuasin Sumatera Selatan. Sebagian besar penduduk di Kecamatan ini memiliki sapi yang diternak sendiri. Selama ini kotoran sapi hanya digunakan sebagai pupuk kandang dan sebagian besar dibuang karena menimbulkan bau tidak enak. Pembuatan reaktor biogas yang diterapkan dengan menggunakan tendon air karena lebih murah dan tahan lama. Pembuatan reaktor biogas ini hanya memerlukan biaya sekitar Rp. 3.000.000,-. Diharapkan setelah dibuatkan percontohan pada salah satu rumah warga, hal ini dapat diikuti oleh warga lain sehingga potensi biogas yang ada bisa dimanfaatkan dan tidak terbuan

    In this paper, we study how the introduction of the GDPR affected online traffic and concentration. We rely on a unique dataset collecting information on websites' visits in the E-commerce sector, and we implement a difference-in-differences model that exploits the geographical origin of website traffic. We classify websites according to their pre-GDPR amount of visits to capture potential heterogeneous effects based on websites' size. We exploit the advent of the 2018 Black Friday to assess how online consumption and concentration react in a period of demand peak when constrained by privacy regulation. Our findings show that (1) online traffic decreases after GDPR, (2) the impact is higher for small websites which however gain traffic during demand peaks, and (3) online concentration decreases in Germany but increases in Italy

    ABSTRACT Eight Ongole Crossbred young bulls (aged 1.5 years; weight 217.5 kg) were used to study the effect of level concentrate supplementations to the rice straw on the energy utilization. Animals were randomly divided into two groups, first group were fed on 50% concentrate supplementation (C50), and the second group were fed on 70% concentrate supplementation (C70). The concentrate feed composed of rice bran and wheat bran at a ratio of 50:50. The rice straw was given to animals ad libitum. The parameters observed were daily intake of dry matter (DMI), gross energy (GE), fecal energy (FE), urine energy (UE), methane gas energy (CH4E) and daily body weight (BW) gain by total collection method for 7 days. Energy loss as methane gas was calculated by using the Kurihara’s equation of methane gas production. The average daily BW gain was measured after the animal being raised for 12 weeks. The data were analyzed using the t-test. The results showed DMI and GEI of cattle fed C70 was higher (P<0.05) than that of cattle fed C50. The percentage to the GEI of energy excreted as feces, urine and methane were found lower (P<0.05) in C70 than that in C50. The metabolizable energy in C70 was higher (P<0.05) than that in C50, being 55.99 and 40.33 MJ/d or equal to 53.18 and 45.11%GEI, respectively. These results were correlated with the BW gain in C70 and C50, being 0.62 and 0.45 kg/d, respectively. The increasing of concentrate by 20% (from 50 to 70%) of the total DMI could significantly increase the available energy and body weight gain.

    This experiment was conducted to estimate the actual milk yield and to compare the estimation accuracy of cumulative monthly record to actual milk yield by regression method. Materials used in this experiment were records relating to milk yield and pedigree. The obtained data were categorized into 2 groups i.e. Age Group I (AG I) that was cow calving at < 36 months old as many as 33 cows with 33 lactation records and AG II that cows calving e” 36 months old as many as 44 cows with 105 lactation records. The first three to seven months data were used to estimate actual milk yield. Results showed that mean of milk yield/ head/ lactation at AG I (2479.5 ± 461.5 kg) was lower than that of AG II (2989,7 ± 526,8 kg). Estimated milk yields for three to seven months at AG I were 2455.6±419.7; 2455.7±432.9; 2455.5±446.4; 2455.6±450.8; 2455,64 ± 450,8; 2455,5 ± 459,3 kg respectively, meanwhile at AG II was 2972.3±479.8; 2972.0±497.2; 2972.4±509.6; 2972.5±523.6 and 2972.5±535.1 respectively. Correlation coefficients between estimated and actual milk yield at AG I were 0.79; 0.82; 0.86; 0.86 and 0.88, respectively, meanwhile at AG II were 0.65; 0.66; 0.67; 0.69 and 0.72 respectively. In conclusion, the mean of estimated milk yield at AG I was lower than AG II. The best record to estimate actual milk yield both at AG I and AG II were the seven cumulative months.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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

    Pemenuhan akan kebutuhan daging sapi dan abon, di Indonesia masih kurang, sehingga sering dipenuhi dari produksi luar negeri. Di Indonesia sangat banyak potensi untuk mengembangkan bahan baku sebagai bahan pembuatan abon, yaitu daging sapi atau sapi potong. Kebutuhan sapi potong pun sangat memungkinkan untuk bisa dipenuhi dari dalam negeri sendiri. Sapi yang sudah besar karena penggemukan, bisa untuk memenuhi kebutuhan daging sapi. Harganya mahal dan tentunya pengusahaan oleh para petani di pedesaan sangat diuntungkan dengan beternak sapi potong

    Speech enabled shopping application using Microsoft SAPI

    PCs are no longer a playground for a few computer freaks. They have changed from big pocket calculators to be used as everyday tools with seemingly unlimited options. In modern countries using a computer has become a basic requirement like reading and writing. The importance of digital information has already reached such an enormous level that many start-up companies and even corporations provide information largely digital. Also politicians around the world try to find their ways to a paperless e-Government. Obviously this is a positive progress because it means up to date information at any time and for everybody. But is this really accessible to everybody? People with disability such as visual impaired are often forgotten though the number of the elderly for who it's very hard to identify the screen text is already high and increasing continuously during the next decades. So it would be a real relief to have the option to use ears to listen to the contents and use voices to navigate and control the computer systems. Even if sometime it is for normal people, it would be more comfortable to work with speech enabled applications. Microsoft has designed an interface called SAPI (Speech Application Programming Interface) which supports dynamic speech input and output, and integrated it in its current operating system. With the API it is possible to develop speech enabled applications without caring about the details of synthesis and recognition. In this paper, a windows application ispresented to demonstrate the speech-enabled application using Microsoft SAPI

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    We 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
