Judul: Determinants of Competitiveness and Export of Indonesian Coffee in Non-Traditional Market
Abstrak: Kopi merupakan salah satu komoditas ekspor unggulan Indonesia. Namun, ekspor kopi Indonesia dalam sepuluh tahun terakhir berfluktuasi dengan kecenderungan yang menurun. Untuk meningkatkan kinerja ekspornya, diversifikasi pasar ke negara non tradisional menjadi salah satu cara yang dapat dilakukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis bagaimana daya saing kopi Indonesia dengan kompetitornya yakni Brazil, Vietnam, dan Kolombia serta determinan daya saing dan ekspor kopi Indonesia di negara non tradisional. Metode yang digunakan adalah RCA, EPD, X-Model, gravity model dan regresi data panel. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kopi Indonesia dan negara kompetitor memiliki keunggulan komparatif yang cukup tinggi. Kopi Indonesia berdaya saing tinggi di pasar Armenia, Georgia, dan Maroko. Hasil estimasi gravity model menunjukkan bahwa PDB perkapita riil Indonesia, PDB perkapita riil negara importir, populasi negara importir, jarak ekonomi, dan indeks daya saing RCA berpengaruh signifikan terhadap volume ekspor kopi Indonesia. Hasil regresi data panel menunjukkan bahwa faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi daya saing kopi Indonesia di negara non tradisional adalah nilai ekspor, produktivitas perkebunan kopi, dan harga ekspor., Coffee is one of the leading export commodities in Indonesia. However, Indonesian coffee export in the last ten years has fluctuated with a downward trend. It’s export performance can be improved by diversifying the market to non-traditional countries. This study aims to analyze the competitiveness of Indonesian coffee export with it’s competitors: Brazil, Vietnam, and Columbia and also determinants of competitiveness and export of Indonesian coffee in non-traditional countries. The methods used in this research are RCA, EPD, X-Model, gravity model and panel data regression. The results of this study shows that Indonesian coffee and it’s competitor have a high comparative advantage. Indonesian coffee is highly competitive in Armenia, Georgia, and Morocco. The gravity model shows that real GDP per capita of Indonesia, real GDP per capita of importer, population of importer, economic distance, and RCA have a significant effect on the volume of Indonesian coffee export. The results of panel data regression shows that factors that affect the competitiveness of Indonesian coffee export in non traditional countries are export value, coffee plantation productivity, and export prices.

Judul: Determinants of Indonesian Coffee Competitiveness in Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) Market
Abstrak: Kopi adalah satu dari beberapa komoditas andalan ekspor Indonesia ke pasar EAEU. Tujuan yang ingin diraih, antara lain, melakukan analisis kondisi ekspor kopi dalam negeri dan kebijakan ekspor kopi di Indonesia, daya saing, potensi ekspor, serta faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi daya saing kopi Indonesia serta merumuskan strategi dalam upaya meningkatkan daya saing dan ekspor kopi Indonesia. RCA, EPD, X-Model, dan regresi data panel merupakan metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Analisis posisi dan pengembangan pasar dilakukan pada empat negara tujuan yang memiliki nilai RCA diatas satu. Hasil yang ditemukan dari analisis EPD menunjukkan terdapat dua negara tujuan memiliki pengembangan pasar potensial yang berada di posisi lost opportunity dan dua negara tujuan memiliki pengembangan pasar kurang potensial yang berada di posisi retreat. Hasil estimasi regresi menunjukkan variabel GDP per kapita negara tujuan, GDP per kapita negara Indonesia, dan volume ekspor memengaruhi tingkat daya saing kopi Indonesia secara signifikan., Coffee is one of Indonesia's main export commodities to the EAEU market. The objectives to be achieved include conducting an analysis of conditions of domestic coffee exports and coffee export policy in Indonesia, competitiveness, export potential, as well as the factors that influence the competitiveness of Indonesian coffee and formulating strategies in an effort to increase the competitiveness and exports of Indonesian coffee. RCA analysis method, EPD, X-Model, and panel data regression were used in this study. Position analysis and market development were carried out in four destination countries with RCA values above one. The results found from EPD analysis are that there are two destination countries that have potential market developments that are in position lost opportunity and two destination countries have less potential market development in position retreat. The results of the regression estimation show that the variables GDP per capita of destination countries, GDP per capita of Indonesia, and export volume significantly influence the level of competitiveness of Indonesian coffee.

Judul: Hydrothermal Synthesis of Biphasic Calcium Posphate
Abstrak: Biphasio calsium phosphate (BCP), which was a mixture of hydroxypatite (HA) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP), was synthesized by hydrothermal method followed by sintering process. Hydroxyapatite was produced by using natural calcium source CaO from hen's eggshell and (NH4)2HPO4 as phosphate souce, other hydroxyapatite sample was produce by using synthetic calcium source Ca(OH) and H3PO4 as phosphate source.
