    Berdasarkan potensi pertanian yang ada di Desa Sukamantri yang mencapai 1.46 juta hektar luas lahan untuk sawah dan ladang, yang seharusnya desa ini memiliki potensi pertanian yang sangat besar. Namun dikarenakan kondisi lahan yang cenderung memiliki kemiringan dan berdekatan dengan wilayah yang memiliki pergerakan tanah yang cukup tinggi, sehingga potensi pertanian dan sumber dayanya belum teroptimalkan, hal ini dikarenakan masih rendahnya keterampilan dan pengetahuan petani dalam membangun kegiatan produktif yang dapat meningkatkan kesejahteraan ekonomi keluarga.  Tujuan kegiatan ini adalah untuk memberikan edukasi pemanfaatan lahan melalui pengembangan usahatani secara optimal berbasis konservasi, sehingga dapat meningkatkan perekonomian keluarga. Metode pelaksanaan kegiatan ini melalui penyuluhan, demontrsasi dan pelatihan.  Hasil kegiatan adalah 15 orang petani peserta yang sebagian besar berpendidikan rendah rata-rata tidak tamat SD namun memiliki kemampuan berpartisifasi aktif selama kegiatan berlangsung, terlihat dari resposipnya petani dalam mengikuti penyuluhan maupun saat pelatihan yang terlibat langsung dalam praktek berusahatani diversifikasi penanaman secara verticultur yang ditumpangsarikan dengan tanaman pangan. Pembuatan rorak di anatara petak pertanaman merupakan teknologi konsevasi yang mudah dilakukan oleh petani. Petani yang menyatakan puas dengan kegiatan ini sebanyak 60% dan sangat puas sebanyak 40%.  Perlu adanya pembinaan dalam pengetahuan dan ketrampilan lebih lanjut untuk menciptakan kemandirian para petani

    Bogor Regency in one of the coffee producers in west Java, including  coffee from Barengkok Village, Leuwiliang District, Bogor Regency.  So far, farmers in post-harvest processing of coffee cherries only process coffee beans, while the skin is removed so that it becomes waste that is not utilized. Whereas from the coffee skin, there are many ingredients that are very beneficial for health, including rich in antioxidants, but the knowledge and skills of farmers in processing coffee bean waste are still low, so there is a need for education for the people of Barengkok Village. The purpose of this activity is to increase the knowledge and skills of the Women Farmers Group (KWT) through education and training in processing coffee bean waste into Cascara as a health drink, so that it has economic value.  The method of implementing this activity uses counseling, demonstrations and training on Cascara production, production management and product marketing strategies.  Partners in this activity were the Pelangi Gunung Suling Women Farmer Group (KWT), totaling 18 people. To see the success of the program, it was carried out through the pretest and posttest analyzed by quantitative descriptive.  The results of the activity showed that there was an increase in partner knowledge in processing coffee skin waste from unknowing to 94.4% knowing and understanding, the participants were very enthusiastic about participating in this empowerment activity as seen from the number of attendees who were 100% present from beginning to end. Coffee skin waste can be of economic value through processing health drinks, thus making it a new business opportunity.

    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

    Variations on the Author

    “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

    Get PDF
    We 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

    Get PDF
    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We 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
