Judul: An Analysis of Innovation Network Performance on the Palm Oil Industry in North Sumatera
Abstrak: Indonesia and Malaysia shared 85% of global palm oil production by weight in 2013, according to United States Department of Agriculture (USDA, 2014). Indonesia overtook Malaysia as the biggest producer of palm oil and reached a total production of 30 million tons in 2014 (Ministry of Agriculture, 2015). Although Indonesia became the leading country in the production of palm oil, most of this commodity are exported as Crude Palm Oil (CPO) and Crude Palm Kernel Oil (CKPO) to Europe, China and India, so the value added going to another country. Therefore, the government wants to resolve this problem by increasing the added value of palm oil products. Innovation is the key factor to increase the added value of palm oil products. Indonesian government set North Sumatera as a center of palm oil industry and encourage the growth of innovation in this region. Advances in innovation are considered as the main factor that affect the regional competitiveness and become the key factor for increasing national economic growth. Moreover, collaboration between government, universities and firms are important to produce the expected innovation. This paper assess the effectiveness of network among actors on the palm oil industry in North Sumatera. A Social Network Analysis (SNA) was carried out to determine the structure and performance of this network. The result show that the government play insignificant role in this industry, while research institutions have more influence. Moreover, this study also identify the barriers which inhibit the collaboration among actors. This study use interpretive analysis based on the interviews to recommend some action plan, which are intended to improve the network.

Khusus pada bentuk "thymic leukemia", virus ini hanya menyerang anak-anak kucing berumur diba- wah 1 tahun. Kucing-kucing liar atau yang tidak terpeli- hara jarang sekali terinfeksi FeLV. Selain dari serangan virus FeLV itu sendiri, maka penyakit leukemia ini bisa disebabkan oleh beberapa fak- tor yang sudah ada dalam tubuh hewan dan sangat menunjang perkembangan penyakit ini, yaitu antara lain tumor, agen toksik, cedera oleh kecelakaan dan gangguan hemopoiesis. FeLV menyerang sel-sel darah dalam tubuh hewan se- hingga pembentukan darah berjalan tidak normal. Terlihat sel-sel darah yang belum dewasa sudah beredar dalam sir- kulasi darah. Bentuk dan jumlahnya tidak lagi seimbang dalam tubuh hewan kucing tersebut. Gejala klinis antara lain kekurusan, ikterus, anemia, lemah, anoreksia, dyspnoe, sulit menelan, batuk, dan membran mukosa pucat. Selain itu kelenjar pertahanan tubuh juga membengkak, kemudian terjadi hepatomegali, spleenomegali dan pembengkakan pada ginjal. Terbentuk massa tumor pada beberapa tempat. Secara biopsy pada sumsum tulang akan terlihat be- berapa perubahan. Sumsum tulang berwarna merah tua atau abu-abu. Konsistensinya lunak dan terdapat banyak sekali memproduksi sel darah putih. Melalui gambaran darah leukemia ini lebih mudah didiagnosa. Jumlah retikulosit rendah sekali. PCV 8-15%, hemoglobin menurun, sel darah putih (WBC) meningkat, lim- fosit meningkat, Alfaglobulin juga ada peningkatan, dan banyak eosinofil yang belum dewasa beredar dalam darah…dst
