Judul: The Correlation Between Ranchers Participation and Empowerment on Kampus Desa Program in Neglasari Village
Abstrak: Kampus Desa merupakan program pemberdayaan masyarakat secara swadaya yang diselenggarakan dengan pola sharing potensi IPB, masyarakat peternak, pemerintah daerah, dan swasta. Program pemberdayaan tidak lepas dari partisipasi masyarakat. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah menganalisis hubungan tingkat partisipasi dan keberdayaan peternak dalam program kampus desa. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode survei yang didukung dengan data kualitatif dengan metode wawancara mendalam dan observasi. Teknik pemilihan responden dilakukan secara sensus atau mengambil seluruh populasi dari anggota Kelompok Ternak Mekar Jaya dan Sugih Mukti, dengan total responden sebanyak 12 peternak. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan antara tingkat partisipasi dengan tingkat keberdayaan peternak. Dengan demikian, program Kampus Desa dapat dikatakan berhasil dalam memberdayakan peternak dalam tiga aspek yaitu kognitif, afektif, dan psikomotorik., Kampus Desa is a self-supporting community empowerment program organized by sharing the potential of IPB, the ranchers community, local government, and the private sector. Empowerment programs cannot be separated from community participation. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relation between the level of participation and ranchers empowerment on Kampus Desa program. This study used a quantitative approach with a survey method supported by qualitative data using in-depth interviews and observation methods. The technique of selecting respondents was carried out by census or taking the entire population from members of the Mekar Jaya and Sugih Mukti Livestock Group, with a total of 12 ranchers as respondents. The results showed that there was a relationship between the level of participation and the level of ranchers empowerment. Thus, the Kampus Desa program can be said to be successful in empowering ranchers in three aspects, namely cognitive, affective, and psychomotor.

Abstrak: Agriculture development approach carried out centrally and top down. Failure in reaching development agriculture efforts, made the expert at that time said it was very important to change paradigm of agriculture development to sustainable bottom up approach. Field School (SL-PTT) is as a part of agriculture extension activities, is pointed to empower the farmers, it is one of the way to reach development agriculture point, so it has been more interesting to learn as far. The aim of the present research was to analyse correlation farmer empowerment model of SL-PTT with level of participation and autonomy. This research used quantitative method and was supported with qualitative data. The quantitative data were collected by using survey method on 42 farmers participant of SL-PTT. The respondents were selected by applying a stratified random sampling method. In other hand, the qualitative data were collected with in-dept interview. The results show that activity of SL-PTT had a significant correlation with level participation and autonomy farmers. Most farmers were in middle participation level and autonomy.

Judul: Enhancement of photon absorbtion on BaxSr1-xTiO3 thin films semiconductor using photonic crystals.
Abstrak: In this research, has been conducted BaxSr1-xTiO3 (BST) thin films manufacturing for mole fraction x = 0.25, 0.35, 0.45, and 0.55; and concentration of 1 molar using chemical solution depositon (CSD) method. The materials, which are used in this research, are barium acetate [Ba(CH3COO)2, 99%], strontium acetate [Sr(CH3COO)2, 99%], titanium isopropoxide [Ti(C12O4H28), 97.999%], gallium trioxide [Ga2O3], 2-methoxyethanol [H3COOCH2CH2OH, 99%] and 1 x 1 cm of transparent conductive oxide (TCO) glass as substrate. Two BST thin films are made that for BST thin films which are doped by 10% galium (BGST) as p-type layer and pure BST solution as n-type. BST solution is made by reacting barium acetate [Ba(CH3COO)2, 99%], strontium acetate [Sr(CH3COO)2, 99%] and titanium isopropoxide [Ti(C12O4H28)] into 2-methoxyethanol solvent [H3COOCH2CH2OH, 99%] in accordance with mass gram for each x value. While, BGST solution is made in the same way as BST solution, plus adding gallium at 10% of the mass of BST. Once all materials are reacted, then vibrated using ultrasonic for 90 minutes, and followed by coating BGST / BST on the TCO substrate. Once the layer is formed, then annealed for 15 hours at temperature of 500 °C with increasing rate of 1.67 oC/minute. Characterizations of BST thin films with or without photonic crystals include the absorbance and transmittance in the visible light spectrum, as well as the electrical photoconductivity characterizations. From BST thin films without photonic crystals indicate that our thin films have light absorption area on almost the entire range of the visible light spectrum even to the infrared range with absorption value over than 67.6%, in addition, it can be seen that the maximum absorbance of BST thin films for all mole fractions lie in blue to green light spectrum region, 457 nm ≤ λ ≤ 570 nm and the minimum in yellow to red light spectrum region, 570 nm ≤ λ ≤ 678 nm. The largest absorbance is found at x = 0.25 with average absorbance value of 92.04% and maximum and minimum absorbance peaks at wavelength of 500.89 and 657.72 nm, respectively. At x = 0.35, average absorbance value decreased to 83.55% with maximum and minimum peaks at 505.73 and 613.68 nm, respectively. Then increased to 91.16% at x = 0.45 with maximum and minimum peaks at 506.04 and 618.56 nm, respectively. At x = 0.55, average absorbance value decreased to 80.12% with maximum and minimum peaks at 507.85 and 608.79 nm, respectively. Moreover, it can be seen that the addition of barium mole fraction leads to wider maximum absorbance or minimum transmittance peaks and narrower minimum absorbance or maximum transmittance peaks in the same range of the green and blue & red light spectrums, respectively. BST thin films with photonic crystals show increasing in absorption for all x values in the range of 3.04 into 13.33%. At x = 0.25, average absorbance percentage increased 3.96% from 92.4 into 95.68%, for x = 0.35 average percentage increased 7.07% into 89.45 from 83.55%. Furthermore, average absorbance of BST thin films at x = 0.45 increased 3.04% from 91.16 into 93.93% and x = 0.55 has
