Judul: Optimization of Land Use and Land Cover by Using Geographic Information System at the Watershed of Citamiang
Abstrak: This study examines the use of linear program and geographic information systems to optimize land use and land cover at the watershed of Citamiang. To obtain the optimum land use and land cover, the factors to consider are land productivity, the degree of erosion and the preference of the community living in the study area. A spatial model of optimal land use and land cover allocation is formulated into the value of PPPL = 0.38 x productivity score + 0.31 x erosion score + 0.31 x community preferences score. The study found that the optimal land use in the study area requires a forest area of 1036.9 ha (58%), mixed plantation of 572.36 ha (32%), fields/moor area of 81.14 ha (5%), settlement area of 13.3 ha (1%), and rice field of 66.3 ha (4%). This optimization will reduce erosion from 339.90 tones/ha/year to 113.32 tons/ha/year. Based on the composite model as described above, the geographic information system could effectively portray the area allocated by the linear program

Judul: Studi Perencanaan Pengelolaan DAS dengan Model Optimasi Penggunaan Lahan di Bagian Hulu DAS Mahakam
Abstrak: Land use which is not in accordance with the land capability, will cause land degradation. In Indonesia, there is progressive increase of critical land area size, every year, and this exerts an impact toward watershed damage. Objectives which are sought in the planning of watershed management often negate each other because from one point of view, there is a desire to maintain natural resources sustainability, and from other (economic) point of view, there is a desire to increase farmer's income. In order to obtain a model for planning sustainable watershed management, land use optiminazation was conducted and designed using the analysis of Linear Goals Programming (L GP) The study area had the size of 29 686 ha, comprising 3 subdistricts (namely Damai, Barong Tongkok and Melak) that were situated in the district of Kutai Barat, the province of East Kalimantan. The formulation of model for land use optimization was designed to achieve four targets, namely peak discharge. reduced rate of erosion (so that it is equal with or smaller than the targeted discharge and tolerable soil loss), ability of each farmer family to fulfill the need for food and rice, and ability of on farm income to create appropriate level of welfare. Research unit was homogeneous land unit. Data source for model input came from improvement of cropping pattern and alternative agrotechnology which was conducted by using simulation of CP factor. Data processing and analysis used the method of SCS, USLE and farm analysis. On the other hand, the completion of model used software General Algebraic Modeling System (GAMS) and Arcview 3,2. Land use with existing cropping pattern gave peak discharge of 116.39 m3/seconcj, erosion between 157-876 tonlha, production of upland rice 1.52 ton GKPlhalyear, and income Rp 3 268 636,-halyear. On the other hand, optimum land use pattern from the six scenarios model, showed better results as compared with the existing condition because ecologically, the land use could maintain the stability of peak discharge, and reduce erosion to the level below the targeted value. Although scenario model la and llla (with land use composition in the form of non irrigated rice field and dry land crop field) gave better result than those of existing conditions, but the occurring erosion were still higher than those in scenario model I, 11, Ill, and IV (with land use composition in the form of non irrigated rice field, dry land crop field, and estate field). This was because the priority for achieving erosion target in scenario la and llla was only up to the tolerable rate of soil erosion. Testing of scenario model I, 11, Ill, and IV showed that there was a tendency for increasing proportion of dry land crop field area size, but on the other hand, decreasing proportion of non irrigated rice field and estate field area size, if the target of achieving living standard is continuously increased. Spatially, recommendation that could be given for /and units of non irrigated rice field, dry land crop field and estate field is in the form of cropping pattern and agrotechnology LI *, L3b* ,

Judul: Keberadaan Antibodi Asal Induk Newcastle Disease (ND) dan Infectious Bronchitis (IB) pada Broiler yang Divaksinasi Vaksin Rekombinan HVT-IBD
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari keberadaan antibodi asal induk terhadap virus Newcastle Disease (ND) dan Infectious Bronchitis (IB) pada broiler yang divaksinasi dengan vaksin rekombinan Herpesvirus of Turkey (HVT) - Infectious Bursal Disease (IBD). Pada penelitian ini digunakan dua kelompok ayam yaitu: Kelompok Vaksinasi dan Tidak Vaksinasi. Kelompok vaksinasi menerima vaksin rekombinan HVT-IBD pada umur 1 hari. Sampel serum dikoleksi pada umur 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 19, 22, 26, 29, dan 33 hari. Titer antibodi ND ditentukan dengan uji Hemaglutinasi Inhibisi (HI), sedangkan Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) digunakan untuk menentukan titer antibodi IB. Antibodi ND pada kedua kelompok masih terdeteksi sampai broiler berumur 33 hari, namun titer antibodi ND positif hanya sampai umur 6 hari dan tidak mencapai level protektif. Antibodi IB masih pada level positif sampai dengan umur 6 hari pada kelompok divaksin dan 3 hari pada kelompok tidak divaksin. Hasil penelitian ini mengindikasikan bahwa diperlukan vaksinasi ND pada broiler berumur 3 hari dan vaksinasi IB pada broiler berumur lebih dari 6 hari.
