Judul: Developing Interpretation Route And Program Of Agrotourism (Case Study : Malang Regency, East Java Province)
Abstrak: Agrotourism is the form of tourism which capitalizes on rural culture as a tourist attraction. It is similar to ecotourism except that its primary appeal is not the natural landscape but a cultural landscape. An advantage agrotourism approach is that rural areas are popular destinations for holidays and excursions, particularly cultural landscapes which still give a review of how previous generations lived and worked. Agrotourism is well known in Malang Regency. Agriculture industries growth well, supporting with the suitable condition such as land condition, weather in these places. The variation of plants and the beauty sceneries are the attractive things beside the visitors allow to get interact with the objects. For example they can pick fruits, learn more about plant or just buy some souvenir. The objectives in this research are to identify attractive agrotourism tourism objects in Malang Regency, identify agrotourism activities mainly based on farm activities and to develop the agrotourism interpretation route and programs. Geography Information System (GIS) is used as the main tools to process the analysis.

Judul: Kajian lanskap budaya pertanian untuk pengembangan agrowisata di nagari pandai sikek kabupaten tanah datar, Sumatera Barat
Abstrak: Highland agricultural landscape which is combined with its local culture unique properties such as the culture of Nagari Pandai Sikek, West Sumatra, is an interesting tourism object and attraction. However, the agrotourism development in that area has not been optimally planned. The characteristic of agricultural landscape of each area or Jorong, a part of nagari landscape unit, as a tourism object and the tourism supporting factors should be studied well. The objective of this study was to identify and analyze local landscape characteristic and its potency of tourism supporting factor in each Jorong of Nagari Pandai Sikek, then to propose the concept for agrotourism development. The landscape assesment scoring and comparison exponential method were used to determine the potency of each Jorong. The results showed that the Jorong Pagu-Pagu has the highest potency value of 3.51, Jorong Baruah, Jorong Tanjung, and Jorong Koto Tinggi has medium potency with its value 3.48, 3.46 and 3.43 respectively. Jorong Pagu-Pagu is highly potencial for its uniqueness and attractiveness as agrotourism object. Jorong Baruah, besides its high potencial for community acceptance and the availability of supporting facilities, it is also located in the main access to Padang and Bukit Tinggi. The concept proposed for agrotourism development is by enchancing the most potencial Jorong Pagu-pagu, and promoting tourism development in the second best object at Jorong Baruah, then developing Jorong Tanjung and Jorong Koto Tinggi as tourism supporting areas. The unique local characteristics should be preserved and the local community should be involved in tourism development.

Judul: Sintesis Perisai Neutron Berbasis UHMWPE
Abstrak: Telah dilakukan sintetis Ultra High Molecule Weight Poly-Ethylene sebagai perisai radiasi neutron thermal. Eksperimen dilakukan dengan meletakkan sumber radiasi neutron di depan perisai dengan variasi tebal serbuk UHMWPE 0.22 cm, 0.34 cm, 0.50 cm, 0.85 cm, 0.96 cm, dan 1.1 cm; tebal padatan UHMWPE 0.70 cm, 1.03 cm, 1.49 cm, 1.83 cm, 2.25 cm, dan 4.52 cm; serta tebal campuran antara UHMWPE dengan resin 0.50 cm, 1.01 cm, 1.19 cm, 1.40 cm, 1.58 cm, dan 1.70 cm.. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai koefisien atenuasi memiliki karakteristik fungsi eksponensial terhadap tebal perisai (x, cm) yaitu untuk serbuk UHMWPE 0.555, padatan UHMWPE 0.189, serta campuran UHMWPE dengan resin sebesar 0.422. Nilai koefisien atenuasi terbesar terdapat pada bahan serbuk UHMPWE, kemudian campuran UHMWPE dengan resin, dan padatan UHMWPE.
