Abstrak: Risk is the possibility of adversity or loss, and refers to uncertainty that matters. Consequently, risk management involves choosing among alternative to reduce the effect of risk. One of indicator to know the existence of production risk is the fluctuation in productivity of brokoli, tomato, bayam hijau, and carrot. This study analyzes the risk of commodity production in the four selected in the Pinewood Organic Farm with a diversified approach to analyze the risk of production of more than one commodity. Fluctuations in production will lead to revenues received also fluctuates, will be calculated risks and confectionary risk through the implementation of risk management strategies. Risk analysis is a comprehensive step in the risk assessment process. This assessment begins with the calculation of odds, the value of expected return, until the value of the risk. The analysis tools is the variance (the variance), standard deviation (standard deviation), and the coefficient of variation (coefficient of variation). Measures of deviation is also aided by another measure, namely the calculation of the odds and expected return. The results of the risk analysis calculations show that the specialization of business spinach organic green vegetables have the highest risk level of the four commodities. Based on the comparison of the risk on the four organic vegetables broccoli, tomatoes, green spinach, and carrots are done Pinewood Organic Farm concluded that diversification can reduce risk. However, by diversifying no means eliminate the risk or create a risk to zero. Diversified production activities in the Pinewood Organic Farm has been effectively implemented by the company in an effort to deal with the risk. The strategy needs to be done by the company is to improve the management of the company, to cooperate or partner with other farmers and suppliers of organic vegetables.

Abstrak: Vegetables as one of the parts of the horticulture and have a business opportunity if managed properly. Vegetables is one of the organic agricultural products of environmental friendly nature and get closer to nature concept, so as to provide a good quality assurance compared to conventional vegetables. Besides having the advantages of environmentally friendly farming organic vegetables have a pretty big obstacle is the high level of risk, including the risk of production. The purpose of this study was to analyze the activities of specialization and develop alternative strategies commodity diversification by presenting the right combination to reduce the magnitude of the risk of farming in the specialization of activities. Meanwhile, the risk measure used include opportunities, expected return, variance, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation. The results of the analysis indicate that the specialization of activities Broccoli is a commodity with the lowest coefficient of variation is equal to 0.17. The combination of Broccoli and Carrots are the most diversified activities lower risk than other commodity combinations

Abstrak: Semiconductor Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin film that can be used as absorber layers on solar cell module was made via electrodeposition method. CZTS thin film was electrodeposited on the surface of a silicate glass coated with a thin layer of indium tin oxide (ITO). Deposition process was done using potentiostatic mode at room temperature with a potential of 1.05 V for 30, 45, and 60 minutes, followed with annealing the film at 2 different temperatures, 500 ºC using furnace and 180 ºC using hot plate, both treatments for 45 minutes in N2/H2S atmosphere. The X-ray difractograms were analyzed using Match 2 program and showed that the CZTS thin films had kesterit crystalline structure, with a low percentage of CZTS phase. The thin film also contained secondary phases such as Cu2S, ZnS, and SnS. The obtained CZTS thin films had a thickness between 1.039 and 1.676 μm. Absorption study showed that the band gap energy of CZTS thin films which was annealed using furnace ranged from 1.50 to 1.52 eV, whereas that annealed using the hot plate was not observed. The band gap energy value showed that CZTS thin films can be used as sunlight absorber layers on solar cell. The formation of CZTS crystal film on this investigation was effectively performed using furnace annealing process at a temperature of 500 ºC with deposition time of 45 minutes.
