Judul: Analisis Kelayakan Usaha Penggemukan Domba pada CV Mitra Tani Farm di Desa Tegal Waru Kecamatan Ciampea Kabupaten Bogor
Abstrak: CV Mitra Tani Farm is a sheep and goats fattening bussiness located in Tegal Waru Village Ciampea Subdistrict Bogor Regency. In working out the sheep fattening, MT Farm can afford ownership or partnership with farmers who currently partnering with the business units MT Farm "Rumah Kambing". The purpose of this study are: 1) to analyze the feasibility of fattening sheep CV Mitra Tani Farm viewed from the non-financial aspects such as market aspects, technical aspects, management aspects, legal aspects, social and environmental aspects, 2) to analyze the feasibility of fattening sheep CV Mitra Tani Farm if cultivated by ownership or patnership views on the financial aspects of the NPV, IRR, Net B/C, and Payback Period, and 3) to analyze the switching value of this sheep fattening CV Mitra Tani Farm if there is a decrease in variable cost of production and increase the feasibility of the venture. The results of this study show 1,040 sheeps fattening business in CV Mitra Tani Farm is feasible based on non-financial aspects and financial aspects show this bussiness which is feasible by ownership or partnership because it has appropriated the investment criteria. Switching value calculation results show the maximum limit of increasing lamb price with ownership is 6,33% and the maximum decrease in carcass percentage is 5,82%. Therefore, the maximum of increasing lamb price with partnership is 2,91% and the maximum decrease in carcass percentage is 2,67%.

Abstrak: Sheep is the third biggest contributors of ruminant families for meat national product. MT Farm is one of a farm-based agribusiness companies that planning to expand its business to fulfill market requirements. The aim for this study to analyzing the feasibilty of sheep business expansion at MT Farm based on financial and non financial aspects. This study also analyzing sensitiveness levels of business expansion by Switching Value Analysis. Result of this study shows that business expansion by analyzing non financial aspects is feasible to run. Result of financial analysis is also feasible to run based on investment criteria, that NPV Rp 566,181,930, Net BC is 2.01, and IRR is 22.55 percent of Payback Period means investment costs will return in two years four months and one day. While Switching Value Analysis shows the ascend limit of sheep’s mortality is 2.107109305 percent, so ascending in prices of lamb is 3.1854194939394 percent. Switching Value Analysis shows that ascending of sheep’s price give more influences than ascending of sheep’s mortality.

Judul: Variasi Waktu Reaksi Sintesis terhadap Karakteristik Struktural Nanoplatelet α-Zirkonium Fosfat
Abstrak: Nanoplatelet α-ZrP merupakan material anorganik yang bersifat asam dan berstruktur kristal dengan rumus Zr(HPO4)2.H2O. α-ZrP disintesis dengan ragam waktu reaksi hidrotermal selama 3, 6, 12, 18, dan 24 jam untuk megevaluasi pengaruh waktu reaksi sintesis pada morfologi, ukuran partikel, dan kapasitas tukar kation (KTK). Spektrum inframerah nanoplatelet α-ZrP dari kelima ragam waktu tersebut menunjukkan keberadaan ikatan O-H, P-OH, P-O, dan PO4. Difraksi sinar-X memperlihatkan terdapat empat puncak 2θ yang serupa dengan pola difraksi standar α-ZrP dari data JCPDS. Payaran mikroskop elektron menampilkan bahwa material α-ZrP berukuran nanometer pada bagian ketebalan partikelnya dan berbentuk platelet yang pipih. Nanoplatelet α-ZrP memiliki rentang distribusi ukuran partikel yang luas. Perbedaan ukuran disebabkan oleh ragam waktu dalam proses hidrotermal. Ukuran partikel semakin besar seiring lamanya proses hidrotermal. Penentuan KTK menunjukkan semakin lama waktu sintesis maka semakin kecil nilai KTK.
