Judul: Youth’s Perceptions of Organic Agriculture and  Its Influence on Entrepreneurial Interests.
Abstrak: Salah satu masalah nyata yang terjadi di sektor pertanian adalah jumlah petani yang terus menurun. Minat generasi muda untuk menjadi petani atau pelaku usaha di bidang pertanian juga cenderung menurun. Generasi muda berpersepsi bahwa bekerja di sektor pertanian lebih melelahkan dibanding dengan non-pertanian, dikarenakan dalam bidang pertanian para petani bekerja di luar ruangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi persepsi generasi muda tentang pertanian organik dan untuk mengetahui pengaruhnya terhadap minat berwirausaha dengan melakukan survey kepada 63 anggota Komunitas Petani Muda Indonesia. Metode pengumpulan sampel menggunakan probability sampling, dengan metode analisis data menggunakan analisis deskriptif dan SEM-PLS. Hasil dalam penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa generasi muda memiliki pengetahuan dan pandangan yang positif tentang pertanian organik yang berpengaruh terhadap minat berwirausaha, tetapi minat mereka terhadap pertanian organik cenderung rendah, hal ini disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor, seperti pemasaran produk organik yang sulit, banyaknya masyarakat yang belum paham tentang produk organik dan harga produk organik yang disamakan dengan produk pertanian konvensional oleh masyarakat. Kesimpulannya persepsi berpengaruh terhadap minat generasi muda untuk berwirausaha pertanian organik, One of the real problems that occur in the agricultural sector in Indonesia is the number of farmers that continues to decline. The interest of the younger generation to become a farmer or entrepreneur in agriculture also tends to decline. They perceive that working in the agricultural sector is more tiring than non-agriculture, because in agriculture farmers work outdoors. This study aims to identify the perception of the younger generation about organic farming and to find out its effect on entrepreneurial by conducting a survey to 63 members of Komunitas Petani Muda Indonesia. The sample collection method uses probability sampling, using descriptive analysis and SEM-PLS. The results in this study show that the younger generation has a positive knowledge of organic farming that affect entrepreneurial, but their interest to organic farming tends to be low, this is due to several factors, such as the marketing of organic products that are difficult, many people who don’t understand about organic products and the price of orgnic products that are equated with conventional agricultural products by the community. The conclution is perception affects the interest of young generation to become an entrepreneur.

Judul: Minat Generasi Muda pada Pertanian dan Pengaruhnya terhadap Gerakan Petani Milenial (Kasus: Kasepuhan Citorek, Kecamatan Cibeber, Kabupaten Lebak, Banten)
Abstrak: Regenerasi petani dapat tercermin dari minat generasi muda pada pertanian, sehingga penting untuk menganalisis faktor-faktor yang dapat mempengaruhi minat generasi muda pada pertanian. Kasepuhan Citorek memiliki komunitas yang mewadahi kegiatan pertanian petani muda untuk bergerak bersama mengembangkan pertanian di Kasepuhan Citorek. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah menganalisis faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi minat generasi muda pada pertanian serta pengaruh minat generasi muda pada pertanian terhadap dimensi gerakan petani milenial. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode kuantitatif dan kualitatif. Responden dalam penelitian ini terdiri dari 30 responden yang dipilih secara purposive sampling. Hasil uji statistik menunjukkan bahwa terdapat tiga faktor internal yang berpengaruh terhadap minat generasi muda pada pertanian yaitu tingkat pengetahuan, motivasi, dan kekosmopolitan. Kemudian terdapat tiga faktor eksternal yang berpengaruh terhadap minat generasi muda pada pertanian yaitu dukungan orang tua, dukungan masyarakat, dan dukungan pemerintah. Hasil uji statistik juga menunjukkan bahwa terdapat pengaruh antara minat generasi muda pada pertanian dengan dimensi gerakan petani milenial, yaitu minat generasi muda pada pertanian yang tinggi dapat memicu gerakan pemuda dalam kegiatan pertanian melalui komunitas., Farmer regeneration can be reflected in the interest of young generation in agriculture, so it is important to analyze the factors that can affect the interest of young generation in agriculture. Kasepuhan Citorek has a community that accommodates the agricultural activities of young farmers to move together to develop agriculture in Kasepuhan Citorek. The purpose of this study is to analyze the factors that influence the interest of young generation in agriculture and the influence of the interest of young generation in agriculture on the dimensions of millennial farmer movement. The methods used in this research are quantitative and qualitative methods. Respondents in this study consisted of 30 respondents selected by purposive sampling. Statistical test results show that there are three internal factors that influence the interest of young generation in agriculture, namely the level of knowledge, motivation, and cosmopolitanism.

Judul: Construction of Strongly Optimal Binary Linear Code with Minimum Distance 9 and 11
Abstrak: A binary linear code of length n over q F is a subspace of n q F . A code has three parameters that attached to it, namely length, dimension, and minimum distance. A code with length n, dimension k and minimum distance d is often called [n, k, d ]-code. Usually, when two parameters are given, then we want to find a code that has the best value for the last parameter. Based on Gilbert- Varshamov bound, if a [n, k, d ]-code exists and can not be expanded, we call it a strongly optimal code. In this paper, we construct strongly optimal code with minimum distance 9 and 11. In constructing the code, we created a theorem and algorithm based on Gilbert-Varshamov bound before we implement the algorithm to MAPLE programming language. Because of computational limitations, the program can only construct up to k = 10 for d = 9 and k = 12 for d = 11.
