ABSTRACT

 

This study is the multicases study (survey and case study) that aimed to identify the model of partnership in plantation in Jambi province.  Analysis was performed on a variety of partnership executed, rules, interactions, benefits, constraints and problems in each partnership. It also conducted an analysis of the various factors supporting the formulation of effective partnerships especially in plantation covering institutional role of farmers and government policy on partnerships. There are three models of partnership that exists in the plantations in Jambi province that includes: PIR-Trans partnership, the KKPA partnership and the PIR Plantation Revitalization partnership. PIR Trans partnership is built based on the Inpres no. 1/1986 which explains that the PIR project is PIR project associated with transmigration program. While KPPA partnership model is based on a joint decision of the Minister of Agriculture and Minister of Cooperatives and Small Business Development No.73/Kpts/KB.510/2/1998 and No. 01/SKB/M/11/98. In partnership run through the provision of financing facilities provided by the government in the form of loans to cooperatives in this primary cooperatives to their members. While Plantation Revitalization partnership model builds upon the agricultural policy in 2006, and Minister of Finance policy No.  117/2006.  Partnership associated with plantation revitalization program, as well as KKPA model where land is also from the community by utilizing the credit facility. The third model is formal partnership where the rules in run partnership set out in a written contract in the form of a cooperative agreement. Generally, partnership has benefited the majority of farmers that include increased income, price certainty and transfer of technology. At an analysis of the institution, especially for farmer groups showed yet the role of institutional effectiveness of partnerships in promoting farmers have played. It is not in spite of the limited assistance and guidance provided by the government against the existing farmers' institutions. Government programs so far have not been able to encourage the development of the plantation business partnership program.

ABSTRACT

To controlling weed growth of paddy rice in the SRI (the System of Rice Intensification) method can be done by using paddy straw mulch. The research method in the form of field trials with a completely randomized design, with a dosage of 15 t/ha and the time of application paddy straw mulch  with three modify time. The provision of artificial fertilizer at half the recommended dosage, analysis conducted on weeds and rice yields. The results showed that paddy straw mulching applied twice on rice aged 7 day after planting (DAP) and 14 DAP each half dose gave a decrease in the growth of weeds. Number of weed species and individuals, obtained 12 species with 9,723 individuals. The dominance of the family Poaceae 88% and to Onagraceae 30%,  Family Onagraceae relative density of 75.6 individuals/m2 to 66.8 individuals/m2 and family Poaceae of 30.3 individuals/m2 to 14.9 individuals/m2. Dominance species by Echinochloa sp., and Commelina sp. based summed Dominance Ratio (SDR), it indicates a very effective weed control. Rice yield that is 7.32 t.ha-1 that increased by 86.1% compared to the SRI method control, and increased by 106.1% compared with the conventional method.

ABSTRACT

 

This research was done with experiment method to know responds of various doses of hormone Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) for super ovulation on pesisir cattle. The total amount of pesisir cattle used in this research are 9 cattle with age within 3-5 years old with weight within 140.678 ± 5.51 kg. Pesisir cattle was given a tool named Control Internal Drug Release (CIDR) Containing hormone progesteron. On the 9th day after hormone FSH was given to estrus (the brand is FOLLTROPIN-V produced by Bioniche Animal Health Canada Inc). The doses of hormone FSH used were 16 ml, 18 ml dan 20 ml. On the 3rd day after giving the FSH, PGF2α was injected (the brand is CAPRIGLANDIN produced by Caprifarmindo Labs, Bandung Indonesia) with dose 5 ml. Artificial insemination on 12, 24, 36 hours after the first estrus or about 60, 72, 84 hours after the first injection of PGF2α. Harvest of embryo on the 7th day after the first artificial insemination (about 20th or 21st day after estrus). The measured variable was the level responded of pesisir cattle superovulated, the total amount of corpus luteum (CL) and embryos of pesisir cattle. The result showed that respond of super ovulated on pesisir cattle was 55.56%. The average amount of CL and the amount of embryo on pesisir cattle was 3.89 ± 3.551 and 3.22 ± 4.953. FSH injected with 16 ml dose gave good result, but the best respond with FSH was 20 ml dose. The 20 ml dose gave the most total amount of embryos.

ABSTRACT

 

Land and forest damage occurred in Nagari Paninggahan causes critical land area of 2.700 Ha. In order to repair the damage to forests and land and increase productivity and restore its function as protection for Watershed (DAS) Batur lake, one of the activities is Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM). VCM project is an investment of financial resources, social, physical and material. As an investment there is always a benefit or advantage that is expected either directly or indirectly. So the aim of this research is to analyze the economic feasibility of the critical land management in Jorong Subarang Kenagarian Paninggahan, Sijunjung Sirih subdistrict, Solok District. The research method is descriptive method which uses the case study. From 2010-2015, the area of 31,65 ha has spent Rp 1.371.923.020. The economic calculation of VCM project indicated from the results of the economic analysis of VCM that is 31.65 hectares with a 5-year analysis period at the interest rate of 12%, the B / C Ratio of 1,02, with NPW of Rp 18.533.726 and EIRR of 12,05%. It is due to the calculation of the economic benefits of externalities are not fully assessed quantitatively. A sensitivity analysis shows that the VCM project is sensitive to some effects of the changes, such as the effect of the increase of dollar exchange rate, the rise of inflation and the high cost of maintenance of plants in areas of critical land. VCM project sensitivity level is 2%. Although it is sensitive to the effects of changes, VCM Project has a positive impact on the community and environment as (1) reduce the critical land, so as to prevent the occurrence of fires, the air absorption of CO2 impact on the environment and add DTA, (2) provides a training for using herbicides and (3) Increase employment opportunities. The results of this research could be used as information for farmers on the improvement of degraded land and for the government as a basis for policy making and extension for VCM project development in the local area.
