Judul: Formulasi dan Kelayakan Strategi Aternatif Distribusi Gas Bumi PT ABC
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk merumuskan strategi dan kelayakan strategi alternatif distribusi gas bumi bagi PT ABC dalam menjaga kontinyuitas pasokan gas bumi. Analisis kelayakan dan pohon keputusan digunakan untuk menentukan strategi terpilih dalam menjaga kontinyuitas pasokan gas bumi. Analisis internal dan eksternal digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor kunci keberhasilan perusahaan dalam mengimplementasikan strategi terpilih kemudian dirangkum dan dievaluasi menggunakan matriks IFE dan EFE. Untuk merumuskan strategi implementasi dengan menyelaraskan faktor kunci internal dan eksternal, digunakan matriks IE dan SWOT. Matriks QSPM digunakan untuk menentukan prioritas strategi implementasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan skor IFE dan EFE masing-masing sebesar 2,55 dan 2,76, sehingga PT ABC memiliki sumber daya internal yang cukup untuk menjaga kontinyuitas pasokan gas bumi dan mampu merespon peluang dan ancaman dengan baik. Kondisi ini dapat dikelola dengan baik dengan strategi hold and maintain yaitu penetrasi pasar dan pengembangan produk. Analisis Matriks QSPM menunjukkan bahwa kelompok strategi pengembangan produk memiliki Total Attractiveness Score (TAS) tertinggi sehingga menjadi prioritas untuk diimplementasikan dilanjutkan strategi penetrasi pasar.

Judul: Strategy of PT GAS Facing Business Competition in the Downstream Natural Gas Industry Distribution of West Java and Banten Regions in Indonesia
Abstrak: Indonesia still has conventional natural gas reserves of 100.36 TSCF (Trillion Standard Cubic Feet), and 42.46 TSCF are potential reserves. Apart from conventional natural gas, Indonesia has the potential of non-conventional natural gas, namely coal methane gas known as CBM (Coal Bed Methane) or natural gas from coal and Shale Gas (Flake Gas) potential of 452 TSCF and 574 respectively TSCF. The amount of natural gas reserves illustrates the strategic value of natural gas to fulfill national energy. However, the enormous potential of gas commodities has not yet had a tremendous impact on PT GAS development. Over the past six years, the growth of PT GAS's performance has decreased. This study aims to analyze the internal and external factors that influence the business development of PT GAS, formulate various alternative business development strategies of PT GAS, and determine priority strategies that can apply to PT GAS business development. The research started from November 2018 to April 2019. Primary research data obtained from interviews and discussions with a focus group discussion (FGD) approach and the distribution of questionnaires to nine informants who were considered competent in this study were those directly involved in the preparation of the company's strategy during This was done by PT GAS. Samples took using a purposive sampling method. The data obtained were analyzed descriptively. The strategy formulation analysis consisted of the input stage using an internal and external factor evaluation matrix, the matching stage using IE Matrix and SWOT, and the decision stage using QSPM. The results showed that internal factors were affecting business development obtained from identifying the company's strengths and weaknesses and external factors obtained from opportunities and threats. Internal factor evaluation results got a value of 3.00 (strength of 2.20 and weakness of 0.80) and an external evaluation value of 3.02 (opportunity 2.33 and threats 0.69). Internal and external evaluation calculations determine the company's position in the quadrant grow and build or grow and build. The results of the IE and SWOT analysis results showed seven alternative strategies as well as the priority order of the plan after calculating using the QSPM calculation, namely a) Market Penetration b) Product Diversification c) Improving Pipe Networks d) Improving gas quality e) Improving service quality f) Company reputation g) Strengthening branding. After going through three strategic management planning stages, the next step was selecting the main strategic alternatives that use QSPM as a tool. The primary strategy that gets the highest attractiveness value (3.20) in QSPM is "Market Penetration on an ongoing basis by strengthening the marketing research base by maximizing the pipeline network that there and good gas quality as a value proposition. This strategy is the most attractive strategy for PT GAS today. PT GAS must create a strong marketing research base by strengthening marketing

Judul: Biology and ecology of the buffalo fly, haematobia exigua de meijere (diptera:muscidae)
Abstrak: The life history of the buffalo fly was observed at room temperature of 27°-29.5°C and at a relative humidity of 48-68 percent. The eggs hatched after 17-22 hours, with an average of 18 hours. First instar larvae measured 1.25 + 0.16 mm long and 0.27 + 0.037 mm wide. reach the second larval stage. It took 6-12 hours to the second instar larvae measured 2.676 +0.187 mm long and 0.353 +0.028 mm wide. The second instar took about 12-24 hours to reach the third larval stage. The third instar measured 6.833 + 0.189 mm long and 0.919 + 0.051 mm wide. It took about 2-3 days for the third instar to become pupae. Duration of the pupal stage was about 5-7 days before the adults emerged. Under laboratory condition, the buffalo fly completed its life cycle in 9.5 to 10.5 days, whereas under field condition it took 9-14 days with an average of 10.5 days. The growth ratio which was based on the measurements of the cephalo-pharyngeal skeleton of each instar was 1.797. The preoviposition period was 8-12 days and mating usually occurred on the 6th or 7th day. The longevity of the male was 29 days, whereas it was 32 days in the female. The range of egg production under laboratory condition was between 20-139 per female fly. The belly and hind legs of the carabao were the most preferred habitat either during cloudy and cool dry or shiny and warm day. When the weather was clear and the carabao was in the shade, the flies tended to be more distributed particularly on the shoulder, dewlap, back and horns. The carabaos had relatively fewer Musca sp. and Stomoxys calcitrans than cattle; never the less carabaos had a higher infestation of buffalo fly than cattle. Oviposition occured either during the day or night but the buffalo flies were more active during the night than in the day time. The effect of various lengths of exposure time of manure in relation to the oviposition was profound. observed, the maximum number of the buffalo flies was occurred when the dung was exposed for 30 minutes. With increasing time of exposure the number and variety of insects also increase. It was evident that Sepsidae and psychodidae were the most dominant insects emerging from the dung. The number of buffalo flies also increased with increasing
