Judul: Planning A Sustainable Landscape Area Of Agro-Tourism In The Region Of Gunung Leutik, Bogor
Abstrak: Indonesia as an archipelagic country has a natural potential to be developed as a tourism attraction development. One of the tourism potential that can be developed is agro- tourism. Bogor region has an agricultural land managed by the unit of society and agriculture corporate. One of the farming community center is area of Gunung Leutik, Benteng Village, Ciampea, Bogor. Gunung Leutik Area Tourism has 41.4 hectares which is divided into three units, including education area of Pesantren Darul Fallah agriculture land bussiness area, and Gunung Leutik region. The existence of cultivation areas with interesting scenery, residential area and Islamic education area are potential landscape to develop as tourism object and attractions. General aim is to planning a sustainable landscape area of agro-tourism in Gunung Leutik region, that support agriculture tourism activities and environmental education. This research uses descriptive quantitative method. Quantification was performed to assess the suitability of agricultural land use for certain types of physical plant and the suitability of agricultural tourism using the land evaluation guidelines of Soil and Agro-climate Research Center of Bogor (2008). The planning approach is sustainable tourism. Stakeholder approach is carried out through stakeholder analysis derived from previous research. The main concept is to create sustainable landscape by developing agro-tourism based on physical environment to maintain its quality and increasing local communities welfare. Gunung Leutik potentially be developed as a sustainable agro-tourism area. Development of sustainable landscapes agriculture requires the integration of tourism, cultivation and education activity space. The sustainability of tourism in the region through the development of low external input sustainable agriculture (LEISA). Development of sustainable agriculture tourism is divided into tourism activities integrative zones based on the type of utilization. The zone includes : active, passive and buffer zone. Through tourism activities that involve all stakeholders make landscape ecologically and economically sustainable.

Judul: Perencanaan Lanskap Desa Barengkok Kecamatan Leuwiliang Kabupaten Bogor menuju Kawasan Agrowisata
Abstrak: Desa Barengkok is a village located in Leuwiliang, Bogor, Province of West Java. This village has + 450 Ha area whereas agricultural land has largest amount about 62,2% of the total village’s area. Be an independent agropolitan village is such a vision of Desa Barengkok. Landscape planning of agritourism becomes most potential thing to be developed in this village because of its potency in agricultural sector and human resources. This study was purposed to propose landscape planning in Desa Barengkok as an agricultural tourism area according to its landscape and society potency to pursue the village’s vision as an independent agropolitan and sustainable village. The planning process by Gold (1980) was used with resources approach, which consists of preparation, inventory, analysis, synthesis, and landscape planning stages. Descriptive and spatial analysis were used to determine the suitability of the space. The results showed that 0,57 Ha welcome area (0,13%), 432,41 Ha production zone (95,42%), 13,62 Ha tourism zone (3,03%), and 6,4 Ha conservation zone (1,42%)

Judul: Peranan Polivinil Pirolidon terhadap Kinerja Membran Nafion pada Sistem Direct Methanol Fuel Cell
Abstrak: Nafion adalah membran yang umum digunakan sebagai proton exchange membrane (PEM) untuk direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC). Permasalahan utama Nafion yaitu methanol crossover yang tinggi. Oleh sebab itu, Nafion dimodifikasi permukaannya dengan pelapisan polivinil pirolidon (PVP) untuk meningkatkan kestabilan kimianya. Penelitian ini bertujuan mempelajari pengaruh penambahan konsentrasi polivinil pirolidon terhadap kinerja membran Nafion pada DMFC. Membran yang dihasilkan diharapkan memiliki kestabilan kimia yang lebih baik untuk mengurangi methanol crossover, serta memiliki konduktivitas yang tinggi. Penambahan PVP dibuat dengan variasi konsentrasi 4%, 6%, dan 9% dalam bentuk lapisan pada Nafion sebagai PEM untuk DMFC. Kemudian membran diuji dengan hasil nilai konduktivitas proton tertinggi dihasilkan pada Nafion-PVP 9% dengan nilai 0,0183 S/cm. Untuk nilai beda potensial dan arus tertinggi dihasilkan juga pada Nafion-PVP 9% dengan nilai berturut-turut 0,829 mV dan 0,802 A. Hasil uji kualitatif permeabilitas metanol menunjukkan tidak ada metanol yang terdifusi. Berdasarkan ciri tersebut, membran Nafion-PVP dapat diaplikasikan sebagai PEM untuk DMFC.
