Judul: Analisis produktivitas faktor produksi industri semen Indonesia
Abstrak: Sektor industri pengolahan merupakan penggerak utama dalam pembangunan perekonomian. Salah satu sektor yang penting untuk dicermati dari sektor industri pengolahan adalah industri semen, karena merupakan salah satu komoditi strategis dimana tingkat konsumsinya terlihat terus meningkat dari tahun ke tahun. Dalam proses produksi industri semen dibutuhkan faktor produksi seperti biaya sewa modal, tenaga kerja, bahan baku, dan khususnya energi. Selama ini terlihat pertumbuhan penggunaan input yang tidak seimbang dengan pertumbuhan outputnya, hal tersebut membuat industri semen mengalami masalah produktivitas. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah melihat bagaimana perkembangan nilai output dan produktivitas parsial dari industri semen periode 1983-2007. Selain itu, menganalisis Total Factor Productivity (TFP), faktor-faktor produksi yang mempengaruhi output dan nilai elastisitas dari masing-masing faktor produksi industri semen. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah data sekunder berupa data deret waktu (time series) dari tahun 1983-2007. Model yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah model pertumbuhan Solow dan model fungsi produksi Cobb-Douglas, sedangkan analisis data diolah dengan metode Ordinary Least Square (OLS). Faktor produksi yang dijelaskan dalam penelitian ini yaitu biaya sewa modal yang berupa biaya sewa gedung, mesin dan alat-alat; tenaga kerja yang berupa tenaga kerja produksi; bahan baku yang terdiri dari batu kapur, tanah liat, pasir silika, pasir besi, dan gipsum; dan energi yang terdiri dari bahan bakar, listrik dan gas...

Judul: Analisis faktor-faktor produksi yang memengaruhi output industri pengolahan dan pengawetan daging di Indonesia periode 1983-2008 (Pendekatan Total Factor Productivity
Abstrak: Industrial sector is the prime mover in economic development and drivers of economic growth. One of the industries is the food and beverage industry. Industrial food and beverage processing industry is one that contributes substantially in the formation of GDP. Developments in food and beverage industry is very important because one of the industries with the largest number of companies as well as the largest production value, which is processed in the food industry. Food is one of the basic needs that is very important in human life, one type of food is meat. Consumption patterns of carbohydrate-based to be protein-based and tendency to buy read- to-cook or ready-to-eat ingredients are driving consumption of processed and preserved meat increased in Indonesia. Good potential market in Indonesia encourage processing and preserving industrial of meat to always improve its production. This study aims to analyze the productivity of factors of production, Total Factor Productivity (TFP), and the factors that influence output and preserving meat processing industry in Indonesia.

Judul: Posisi Filogenetik Kura-Kura Carettochelys Insculpta  (Reptillia: Testudinata)
Abstrak: Carettochelys insculpta is an endemic freshwater turtle of southern Papua and northern Australia. Phylogenetic position of this turtle is remain unresolved until now. Most of the research conducted show close relationships of C. insculpta and members of Trionychidae family. However, some of the research show distance between C. insculpta and members of Trionychidae family. This research is conducted to analyze phylogenetic relationship between C. insculpta and other members of Testudinata using 12S rRNA, 16S rRNA, and both gene as markers. DNA samples were obtained from three different organisms of C. insculpta. Two species used as outgroups were Alligator mississippiensis and Iguana iguana. Phylogenetic analysis was carried out using Neighbor-Joining method with Felsenstein 1981 (F81) modeltest. A polytomy tree of Testudinata was produced by using 12S rRNA gene. However, analysis using 16S rRNA and both genes as markers confirmed that C. insculpta was located between the Chelonidae and the Trionychidae family.
