Judul: Pengamatan Serangga Hama Kedelai Di Unit Pemukiman Trasmigrasi (UPT) A1 Pangkalan Kersik, Kecamatan Bayunglincir Kabupaten Musi Banyuasin, Propinsi Sumatera Selatan
Abstrak: Kedelai (Glycine max (L) Merr) merupakan salah satu tanaman anggota famili Leguminosae yang banyak ditanam di Indonesia. Tanaman ini bukan tanaman asli Indonesia, dan diduga berasal dari daratan Cina, yang kemudian dibawa ke Jepang, Korea dan Indonesia. Di Indonesia kedelai ditanam terutama di Jawa, Lampung, Bali dan Nusa Tenggara Barat dengan luas pertanaman sekitar 850 000 hektar (Sumarno, 1984). Kedelai merupakan tanaman palawija yang sering ditanam di tanah-tanah sawah. Penanaman biasanya dilakukan setelah pad dipanen, baik secara monokultur maupun tumpang sari. ...

Judul: Pengamatan serangan serangga hama penting pada tanaman kedelai di kecamatan situraja, kabupaten sumedang, jawa barat
Abstrak: Tanaman kedelai merupakan salah satu tanaman pangan yang mempunyai kandungan protein cukup tinggi. Di Indonesia tanaman ini mendapat prioritas dalam pengembanganmya. Pemerintah Indonesia telah menetapkan suatu target produksi yang ditujukan untuk menutupi kebutuhan kedelai di dalam negeri, yang diharapkan dapat dicapai pada akhir PELITA IV tahun 1988. Untuk mencapai target tersebut pengembangan tanaman kedelai lebih diarahkan ke pembudidayaan lahan kering. Situraja merupakan salah satu daerah pengembangan Dertanaman kedelai di Kabupaten Sumedang mengingat potensinya yang cukup besar dalam bidang pertanian. Salah satu faktor penghambat tingginya produksi tamaman kedelai adalah serangga hama. Serangannya dapat menurunkan hasil sekitar 80 % apabila tidak dilakukan usaha pengendalian. Walaupun diketahui banyak serangga yang hidup pada tanaman kedelai, namun hanya beberapa spesies saja yang tercatat menjadi hama penting. Tujuan Praktek Lapang ini adalah untuk mengetahui serangan serangga hama penting pada pertanaman kedelai di Situraja, Kabupaten Sumedang, Jawa Barat. Dari hasil pengamatan diketahui bahwa pertanaman kedelai di dua lokasi pengamatan diserang oleh serangga hama penting kedelai kecuali Phaedonia inclusa Stal. Namun demikian diduga serangannya tidak berpengaruh besar terhadap produksi.

Judul: The Effects of Variance of Interest rate to Variance of Annuity Future Values
Abstrak: Time value of money is a concept that refers to the difference of the value of money due to time difference. The value of money for present time would not be the same as the value of money in the future. The value of money for present time is called as Present Value (PV) of the money and the value of money for future time is called Future Value (FV) of the money. Determination the value of money, for present and future time, depends on the time and rate of return. The value of money is determined by several factors such as inflation, fluctuation of interest rates, and government policy in securities and taxation. Due to fluctuation of the value of money we need a FV formulation, it is useful for knowing whether an investment can be profitable or not, and this information is useful also in budget analysis. Annuity is defined as a series of payments made for a specific period. The payment, fixed or varied, can be made at the beginning or at the end of the period. Annuity paid at the beginning of the period is called annuity-due and annuity paid at the end of the period is called immediate annuity-certain. The accumulated value of the annuity after few years later is called as a final value or a future value. Burnecki et al. (2003) have discussed about the FV of a fixed-rate annuity in which payments are made according to the arithmetic or geometric series. They have also examined FV for annuities in which payments are made according to arithmetic or geometric series with random rates of interest. This paper examines FV for annuity-due in which payments are made according to arithmetic or geometric series with interest rates as a random variable, which is normal distribution ,  . Future value formula is expressed in recursive form. FV for annuity-due which payments are made according to the arithmetic or geometric series with random rates of interest is calculated by theoretical way and simulation way. The random rates of interest is denoted as k k i  i  , where k i an independent random variable; i is a constant and k  is a random variable which has normal distribution ,  . By using the determined parameters, a sequence of random rates of interest are generated for theoretical calculation. Meanwhile for the simulation, the random rates of interest is generated 1000 times for the simulation. The generated data give mean value, variance, and standard deviation. Moreover, error of mean value, variance, and standard deviation from the theoretical and simulation results are calculated. Error calculation uses Symmetric Mean Absolute Percentage Error (SMAPE). The smaller the value of SMAPE is the more accurate the simulation. The interest rate variances are varied from 0.000036 to 0.0001 to study the relationship between variance of rates of interest and variance of future value. The theoretical and simulation results show that when the variance of random rates of interest increases, then the variance of FV increases linearly. FV of the annuity-due in
