Judul: Dampak Peningkatan Investasi di Sektor Pertanian dan Agroindustri terhadap Distribusi Pendapatan dan Penyerapan Tenaga Kerja
Abstrak: Agricultural industrialization is important for Indonesian economy, because it can increase value-added and market size of agricultural products . An increased investment in agriculture and agroindustry sector can play a part in achieving the goal of agricultural industrialization which is improving income distribution and increasing labor absorption . The objectives of this study are to analyze the role of agricultural and agroindustry sector in Indonesian economy and to analyze the impact of the increased investment in agricultural and agroindustry sector on income distribution and labor absorption using Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) approach. The result of this study shows that agriculture and agroindustry sector have important role on Indonesian economy. It also shows that increased investment in agriculture and agroindustry sector will have greater impact in improving income distribution and increasing labor absorption compared to the increased investment in agroindustry sector only

Judul: Dampak Peningkatan Investasi pada Sektor Agroindustri Terhadap Kemiskinan di Indonesia.
Abstrak: Sektor industri pengolahan merupakan sektor dengan kontribusi terbesar dalam PDB Indonesia tahun 2015, namun penyerapan tenaga kerja terbesar masih bergantung pada sektor pertanian. Hal tersebut menjadikan sektor agroindustri sebagai solusi dalam mengatasi PDB dan tenaga kerja dalam rangka mendukung industrialisasi berbasis pertanian. Pada perkembangannya, sektor agroindustri dihadapi dengan berbagai tantangan, salah satunya adalah fasilitas permodalan yang masih tergolong sedikit. Investasi sebagai salah satu komponen perekonomian nasional berperan penting dalam upaya industrialisasi pertanian yakni sebagai modal awal baik untuk sektor hulu maupun sektor hilir. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk 1) menganalisis peran sektor agroindustri terhadap pengganda nilai tambah, pendapatan institusi, dan produksi di Indonesia serta 2) menganalisis dampak peningkatan investasi pada sektor agroindustri terhadap kemiskinan di Indonesia dengan pendekatan Sistem Neraca Sosial Ekonomi (SNSE). Berdasarkan hasil analisis, dapat disimpulkan bahwa sektor industri kayu dan barang dari kayu serta industri makanan, minuman, dan tembakau memiliki peran penting dalam perekonomian Indonesia dilihat dari nilai multiplier. Selain itu, subsektor agroindustri yang berperan dalam kemiskinan di Indonesia adalah sektor industri kayu dan barang dari kayu serta sektor industri makanan, minuman, dan tembakau.

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.
