Judul: Kajian teknologi produksi benih kedelai pada berbagai agroekologi lahan di Provinsi Jambi
Abstrak: The national soybean production tend to decline in the last decade. This problem requires attention and research to find some solutions. The aim of this research is to Study the characteristic of seed grower of soybean farmers in the three agro-ecological land; Learning the technology that used by the seed grower of soybean farmers in different agro-ecological; Studying the analysis of farming technology that used and the costs incurred; and Studying the relationship between the technology and financial analysis in several agro-ecological land. This research was conducted from October 2010 through January 2011 in East Tanjung Jabung (Swamp Land), West Tanjung Jabung (Wetland irrigation) and Tebo Regency (Dryland). The method used in this research is secondary data collection on soybean seed production technology, that is the recommendation of Legume and Tuber Crops Research Institute. Furthermore, the survey method to collect primary data that obtained through interviews with seed grower directly. Purposive sampling method by seed grower as respondents, were taken of ten seed grower at each region. The results showed that age characteristics of seed grower more productive, low education levels and experience became a certified seed grower is still under four years; the implementation percentage of seed production technology in three different agroecology in the application of technology; financial analysis in three agro-ecological land is valuable as a profitable farm seed production; and there is a strong relationship between the using of seed production technology and the revenue.

Judul: Sistem Penyediaan Benih dan Teknologi Invigorasi untuk Mendukung Ketersediaan Benih Kedelai Bermutu di Provinsi Banten
Abstrak: Research divided into two sub researches. Research 1: Soybean seed system in Banten Province. The aim of research 1 was to study soybean seed availability system in Banten Province. Research 2: Invigoration technology to improve seed vigour, plant growth and yield of soybean. The aim of research 2 was to get and to apply invigoration technology to improve seed vigour, plant growth and yield of soybean. Result of research 1 showed that soybean seed system in Banten Province has used Jabalsim pattern with some modification. Result of SWOT analysis showed position of the system was in 1st quadrant with aggressive strategy as best strategic planning: (1) improving knowledge of seed growers in producing seed, maintaining and improving quality of the seed produced by providing extension service and training, and supervising by Seed Supervising and Certification Office (BPSB); (2) making legal corporation (MoU) between seed growers and PT SHS; and (3) increasing seed production to fulfill the demand of soybean seed. In order to fulfill the need of soybean seed in Banten Province, Jabalsim pattern can be used with better seed production planning by empowering local seed growers. Map of center production area and plan of planting can be helpful to make better seed production planning. Result research 2 showed that matriconditioning using powder of burned rice hull plus commercial Rhizobium inoculant improved seed viability and vigour. This invigoration treatment also improved plant growth and yield by increasing effective nodules, filled pod, yield per plant, yield per plot and potential of yield better than control. Seed invigoration treatment before planting did not influence quality of the seed produced. Seed invigoration using matriconditioning plus Rhizobium should be recommended to be applied by seed growers in order to improve soybean seed quality and to increase soybean production in Banten Province.

Judul: Penggunaan Teorema Homeomorphy 2-Manifold dan Teorema Euler Poincare pada Torus 𝑇�� dan Simplicial Complex 𝐾��
Abstrak: Two dimensional topological spaces are said to be homeomorphic if they have the same topological invariant, where one of topological invariant used is an Euler characteristic. Homeomorphy 2-Manifold’s Theorem and Euler Poincare’s Theorem are used to distinguish two topological spaces. Homeomorphy 2-Manifold’s Theorem uses Euler characteristic to identify two dimensional topological spaces. Euler Poincare’s Theorem is an alternative way to find Euler characteristic with Betti number, which is topological invariant as well. The objective of this paper is to investigate the homeomorphism of torus 𝑇����� and simplicial complex 𝐾�����. Topological space torus and simplicial complex 𝐾����� have the same Euler characteristic, which is two. Based on Homeomorphy 2-Manifold’s Theorem topological space torus 𝑇����� and simplicial complex 𝐾����� is homeomorphic.
