Abstrak: Poverty in rural areas is the main problem to overcome national which can not be postponed and should be a priority in the implementation of the development of social welfare. Therefore, the national economic development based on Agriculture and rural areas, directly or indirectly, have an impact on the reduction of poverty. Rural agribusiness development program (PUAP) is a breakthrough program of the Ministry of agriculture for poverty alleviation and job creation, while reducing the development gap between regions and central areas and gaps between sub sectors. Formulation of the problem in this study is how the combined performance of farmer groups (Gapoktan) direct beneficiary communities (BLM-PUAP), how the PUAP program can increase the income of its members and how the sustainability strategy of PUAP. This research was conducted in the Karawang regency in March to May 2011. The data used consists of primary data and secondary data. Method of analysis used is importance performance analysis (IPA), analysis of farmers' income, Internal Factor Evaluation (IFE), Eksternal Factor Evaluation, analysis of SWOT (Strengths- Weaknesses-Opportunities-Threats) and Quantitative Strategies Planning Matrix (QSPM) analysis. Based on a priority review, sustainability strategy of PUAP program based on aspects of performance and quality in Regency Karawang Gapoktan performance which is 34.78% that is considered optimal. The emphasis of the strategy by taking an advantage of external opportunities to internal weaknesses that exist (WO strategy). Results of the SWOT strategy formulation followed by QSPM analysis to determine the priority strategy alternatives that have been produced. The priority Strategies are : increasing professionalism of gapoktan members, sanctions for administrators who embezzled PUAP funds, improve business unit labor savings and loans to improve the welfare of Gapoktan members, improve the quality and quantity of crops to survive from imports, develop agriculture through the addition of new types of products marketed and the expansion of the market, development and strengthening of marketing network that has been available and improving financial management capabilities gapoktan in partnership with private sector.

Judul: Pengaruh Program Pengembangan Usaha Agribisnis Perdesaan (PUAP) terhadap Produksi dan Pendapatan Usahatani Padi (Studi Kasus Anggota Gapoktan Mekarsari, Desa Purwasari, Kecamatan Darmaga, Kabupaten Bogor Jawa Barat)
Abstrak: Sektor pertanian memiliki peranan penting dalam perekonomian Indonesia. Pada Produk Nasional Bruto (PDB), sektor pertanian secara keseluruhan mampu menyumbang sekitar 42 persen dari seluruh sektor usaha yang ada. Selain sebagai penyumbang PDB yang cukup tinggi, sektor pertanian juga memiliki peran yang besar dalam hal penyerapan tenaga kerja, penyedia pangan dan penyedia bahan baku bagi industri. Akan tetapi dibalik itu semua, sektor pertanian tidak terlepas dari berbagai macam masalah, terutama terkait dengan sektor pertanian primer. Sektor pertanian primer pada umumnya berpusat di perdesaan. Dari data yang diperoleh, sekitar 63,4 persen dari total penduduk miskin di Indonesia berada di perdesaan, dengan mata pencahatian utama sektor pertanian dan 80 persen berada pada skala usaha mikro yang memiliki luas lahan lebih kecil dari 0,3 hektar. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa sektor pertanian primer memiliki peranan pada tingginya tingkat kemiskinan di Indonesia karena masih rendahnya skala ekonomi yang diusahakan. Dalam rangka mengatasi masalah-masalah tersebut dan meningkatkan kinerja serta produktivitas pertanian dan pengembangan perdesaan, maka pemerintah mencanangkan Program Pembangunan Pertanian. Program Pembangunan Pertanian dirumuskan dalam tiga program antara lain : (1) Program Peningkatan Ketahanan Pangan, (2) Program Pengembangan Agribisnis, dan (3) Program Peningkatan Kesejahteraan Petani. Salah satu Program Pembangunan Pertanian adalah Program Pengembangan Usaha Agribisnis Perdesaan (PUAP). Program PUAP merupakan progam jangka menengah (2005-2009) yang dicanangkan Departemen Pertanian RI dengan memfokuskan pada pembangunan pertanian perdesaan. Langkah yang ditempuh adalah melalui pendekatan pengembangan usaha agribisnis dan memperkuat kelembagaan pertanian di perdesaan. Salah satu Gapoktan penerima dana PUAP adalah Gapoktan Mekarsari yang terletak di Desa Purwasari, Kecamatan Darmaga, Kabupaten Bogor. Gapoktan Mekarsari yang terletak di Desa Purwasari merupakan satu-satunya Gapoktan yang menerima dana PUAP di Kecamatan Darmaga pada tahun 2008. Komoditas utama Desa Mekarsari adalah padi karena luas areal tanamnya yang paling besar diantara komoditas lainnya. Dalam penelitian ini dirumuskan beberapa permasalahan yang akan dikaji, yaitu (1) Bagaimanakah proses penyaluran dana PUAP yang dilakukan oleh Gapoktan Mekarsari kepada anggotanya? (2) Bagaimanakah produksi dan pendapatan petani padi anggota Gapoktan Mekarsari yang menerima dana PUAP dan anggota Gapoktan Mekarsari yang tidak menerima dana PUAP? ...

Judul: Photosensor producing based on ferroelectric material of Ba0,5Sr0,5TiO3 doped by Ferrium Oxide (Fe2O3) on a P-Type Silicon Substate Si (100) applied as a digital camera with a single pixel image sensor
Abstrak: Thin film Ba0,5Sr0,5TiO3 (BST) doped with Fe2O3 was grown on p-type silicon substrate (100) using chemical solution deposition (CSD). It used the solvent 2-methoxyethanol with annealing temperature of 850°C and the doping treatment Fe2O3 of 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10 % of the mass formed BST. Pure BST had the highest absorption of 600 nm of light wavelength. Additions Fe2O3 moves highest absorption in the range of 560 nm. Fe2O3 addition was strengthening thin film sensitivity to the effects of light. In general, doping Fe2O3 10% was result the best absorbance and current-voltage of BST thin film. Electrical properties of thin films BST include dielectric, photoconductivity, and dissipation energy. Based on the current-voltage (I-V) analysis, pure BST and doped BST showed photodiode properties. Dielectric values obtained in the range from 23.32 to 243. Based on electrical conductivity data and energy dissipation, BST thin films have shown photodiode characteristics and are therefore suitable as light sensors. The image sensor in a digital camera is also a light sensor. This BST thin film has been scientifically proven to be a light sensor and also it can be applied as an image sensor. This is a novelty image sensor based on thin film Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3.
