Abstrak: Red palm oil (RPO) is a very potential product that needs to be developed, particularly to address nutritional problems in Indonesia. PT Perkebunan Nusantara (PTPN) XIII, possess unique palm trees which are products of backcrossing activity between Elaeis guineensis and E. Oleifera. The trees are indicated to contain β-carotene up to 2000 ppm. The purpose of this research is to explore the potential of thebackcross plants as the raw material of RPO and consequently use the information as the supporting element in the development the logframe matrix for the development of RPO in Indonesia This research was conducted through these following stages: (1) production of crude palm oil from backcross palm fruit samples utilizing fully optimized and integrated extraction techniques, (2) identification of the most potential plant; and (3) organizing a policy strategy to develop the RPO in Indonesia based on LFA approach. This reasearch showed that there is a potential palm trees that could be utilized as the raw material for RPO. The carotenoid content of the palm oilproduced from the chosen plant with the application of series of optimized and integrated technologyprocess would reached about ± 804.89 ppm. Furthermore, the logframe matrix produced through the LFA analysis elaborated that the ultimate goal of the development of RPO in Indonesia will be to enhance value-added and multiplier effects of the Indonesian palm oil, mainly for the welfare of the people.The ultimate goal will be reached through the implementation of government policy to enhance the quality of nurturing, maintenance and production of the potential backcross palm tree by PTPNXIII and the improvement of the plants’ seeds quality by PPKS.

Abstrak: A serious problems often faced by developing countries such as Indonesia is deficiency vitamin A. The number of Indonesia’s blindness in 2008 is about 1.5% of the population. The efforts of Indonesia’s Government are through its cooking oil fortification vitamin. The weakness of the fortvication program is a vitamin used is still imported from abroad. One of alternatives that could be developed is by doing the development of palm oil as a source of carotene in the form of red palm oil. One of the plantations in Indonesia, which has palm oil plants with high levels of carotene is PTPN XIV XIII of West Kalimantan. Carotene content of the varieties range from 2000 to 4000 ppm. The purpose of this study is to analyze techno-economic aspect of high carotene red palm oil industry. Scope of research includes techno-economic on the market and marketing aspect, technical and technological, management and organization, environmental, legal, valuation and commercialization, as well as financial aspects. This Red Palm Oil Industry is planned to be located in Sanggau, West Kalimantan. The Industrial capacity is 5tons/hour. After a depth assessment of all aspects, it can be concluded that the industry of Red Palm Oil is feasible to be realized

Abstrak: Gravitational field equation can be formulated in differential forms (differential geometry), which describes gravity as a manifestation of the curvature of space-time. Curvature of space-time is characterized by a metric that satisfies the gravitational field equation. With differential forms it can be formulated the (anti-) self-dual Einstein equation, which is a modification of the Cartan structure in (anti-) self-dual basis. Calculation of (anti-) self-dual metric with (anti-) self-dual Einstein equation is simpler than the calculation using Christoffel symbols.
