Reksadana syariah merupakan alternatif dalam investasi syariah yang memberikan kemudahan bagi investor yang memiliki kekurangan dana, waktu dan pengetahuan dalam pengelolaan dana investasi. Pertumbuhan reksadana syariah yang terus berkembang setiap tahunnya ternyata belum mampu bersaing dengan reksadana konvensional. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari Nilai Aktiva Bersih (NAB) yang lebih kecil dibandingkan dengan reksadana konvensional sehingga berdampak pada return investasi yang didapatkan investor. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis faktor internal dan eksternal yang memengaruhi return investasi reksadana syariah pendapatan tetap. Return diukur dengan perhitungan NAB tahun berlaku dibandingkan dengan NAB tahun sebelumnya. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode regresi data panel dengan periode observasi dari tahun 2018 sampai 2020 dan sampel yang digunakan berjumlah delapan produk reksadana syariah pendapatan tetap. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa variabel ukuran produk yang dilihat dari volume perdagangan berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap return investasi reksadana syariah pendapatan tetap, sedangkan variabel IHSG, Inflasi, kurs, JUB, exchange rate dan portfolio turnover tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap return., Indonesia as a Muslim-majority country has Islamic financial instruments that are run based on Islamic principles, one of which is Islamic mutual funds. Islamic mutual funds are an alternative in Islamic investment that provides convenience for investors who have a shortage of funds, time and knowledge in managing investment funds. The growth of Islamic mutual funds which continues to grow every year has not been able to compete with conventional mutual funds. This can be seen from the Net Asset Value (NAV) which is smaller than conventional mutual funds so that it has an impact on investment returns that investors get. This study aims to analyze the internal and external factors that affect investment returns on fixed income Islamic mutual funds. Return is measured by calculating the current year's NAV compared to the previous year's NAV. The method used is the panel data regression method with an observation period from 2018 to 2020 and the sample used is eight fixed income sharia mutual fund products. The results showed that the product size variable as seen from trading volume had a positive and significant effect on investment returns on fixed income sharia mutual funds, while the IHSG, inflation, exchange rate, JUB, exchange rate and portfolio turnover variables had no significant effect on return.

Judul: Insecticidal Activity of Essential Oils Leaves of Cinnamomum spp. (Lauraceae) against Crocidolomia pavonana and Their Phytotoxicity on Broccoli Seedlings
Abstrak: Essential oils from leaves of 13 species of Cinnamomum were tested for their insecticidal activity on the cabbage head caterpillar Crocidolomia pavonana with leaf immerse method. The results showed that the treatment with 1% (w/v) essential oils leaves of C. celebicum, C. multiflorum, C. sintoc, and C. verum caused 21.45, 93.65, 60.30, and 76.10% mortality, respectively. Based on the results of phytotoxicity and insecticidal activity tests, C. multiflorum oil was further tested at 6 concentration levels. In all treatments, larval mortality has occurred at 24 hours after treatment (HAT) and increased at 48 HAT. LC50 of C. multiflorum oil at 24 and 48 HAT was 0.504 and 0.396%, respectively. The treatment with C. multiflorum oil at ≤0.31% did not inhibit the development of C. pavonana larvae. Determination of the chemical constituents of Cinnamomum oils were carried out by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GCMS). Totally, 345 compounds were identified. Methyleugenol constituted the main component (49.4%) of leaf essential oil of C. multiflorum and was assumed to be responsible for the insecticidal activity of the oil against C. pavonana larvae. LC50 of pure methyleugenol obtained at 0.365% (48 HAT) and 0.363% (72 HAT). The results showed that C. multiflorum was more effective with LC50 value equivalent to methyleugenol content of 0.32% (24 HAT) and 0.24% (48 HAT).
