Judul: Panen dan Pascapanen Umbi Konsumsi Kentang (Solanum tuberosum L.) di Hikmah Farm, Pangalengan, Kabupaten Bandung, Jawa Barat.
Abstrak: Kegiatan magang telah dilaksanakan pada bulan Februari sampai Juni 2017 di Hikmah Farm, Pangalengan, Kabupaten Bandung, Jawa Barat. Kegiatan magang bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kompetensi mahasiswa dalam bidang teknis dan manajerial, khususnya dalam kegiatan panen dan pascapanen. Data primer telah diamati dengan mengikuti praktek kerja sebagai pekerja lapangan, asisten mandor, dan asisten divisi. Data sekunder dikumpulkan dari dokumen kantor. Perlakuan terbaik pascapanen memerlukan koordinasi dan integrasi yang hati-hati dalam semua aktivitas, mulai dari tingkat panen, pemasaran hingga tingkat konsumen. Hasil percobaan aspek khusus menunjukkan bahwa cara panen 1 (penggalian dengan sendok kayu “gala”, penjemuran, sortasi dan grading, pengarungan 1, pengangkutan 2) adalah cara panen yang paling baik dalam perolehan kualitas hasil panen. Cara panen 2 (penggalian dengan cangkul, penjemuran, sortasi dan grading, pengarungan 1, pengangkutan 2) adalah cara panen yang paling baik dalam efisiensi tenaga kerja pemanen. Persentase kehilangan hasil di gudang penyimpanan lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan persentase kehilangan hasil di lapangan. Kehilangan hasil di lapangan berkisar antara 1-3 % dan kehilangan hasil di gudang penyimpanan berkisar antara 12-36 %.

Judul: Panen dan Pascapanen pada Umbi Bibit dan Umbi Konsumsi Kentang (Solanum tuberosum L.) di Hikmah Farm, Pangalengan, Bandung, Jawa Barat.
Abstrak: General purpose of the internship was to study the potato cultivation and to train technical and managerial skills in problem analyzing on field, especially on the purpose harvesting and postharvest handling aspect. The specific purpose was to observe the effect of harvesting time quality of the tuber, the influence of harvesting method efficiency of harvesting labour and losses of product, the influence of the height of fall out tuber on the damage of tuber, and to observe the percent loss that of product in the field and the storage. The results of specific aspect showed that longer harvesting time harder the tuber skin up to 100 %. Plants that harvested too young will produce small tubers percentage higher than large tubers. Acquisition of tuber fresh weight will be low if the harvesting time is less than 90 days and more than 100 days after planting. Method harvest 1 (digging with gala, drying, sorting and grading, rafting step 1, transport step 2 ) is the highest to get the crop quality. Method harvest 2 (digging with a hoe, drying, sorting and grading, rafting step 1, transport step 2) is the best way to get the efficiency of harvesting labour. Damage of tuber for seed is higher than tuber for consumption. The highest tuber damage occurs when the tuber is dropped at a height of 2.5 m. Percentage tuber losses in storage was higher than losses in the field. The range yield loss in the field between 1 % up to 3 % and yield loss in the storage between 9 % up to 52 %.

Judul: Characterizations of low alloy steel sae 4422  plated with chromic acid (Cro3)
Abstrak: Characterizations of low alloy steel SAE 4422 plated with chromic acid (CrOrO3) was use Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), RD),Energy Dispersive Analysis of X-Ray (EDAX), Hardness Test and Roughness Test. Microstructures analysis exhibits cracks and grain boundaries microcracks as a characteristics of chrome metal found at plating metal. Perlite and Ferrite as grains of steel found at base metal with grain boundaries around it. Phase analysis of plating metal appropriate to chrome metal with lattice constant (a) is 2.559 Å and phase analysis of base metal appropriate to iron ferrite with lattice constant (a) is 3.318 Å. Both plating and base metal have cubic system. Chemical analysis of plating metal at surface section exhibits that cracks area have highest value of carbon element compare with grains and grains boundaries area. While chemical analysis of base metal at cross section exhibits that perlite have highest value of carbon element compare with ferrite and grain boundaries. The hardness value of plating metal at surface section and cross section are 753 and 637 VHN. While, the hardness value of base metal and interface area at cross section are 205 and 373 VHN. The roughness value at measurement points of chrome surface for as received sample are 0.445 μm. Observation used Optical Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy exhibits surface irregularities combine to form surface texture of plating metal at surface section.
