Judul: Analisis dan Strategi Peningkatan Kinerja dengan Metode Balanced Scorecard Pada Koperasi Peternak Susu Bandung Utara Jawa Barat
Abstrak: Efforts to develop and improve the welfare of milk production of dairy farmers can not be separated from the role of cooperatives as a institution breeder business development. Cooperative success is dependent upon the board and the manager of the cooperative. Cooperative management is needed for efficient and effective in order to ensure good co-operative performance. Underwriting performance and the performance evaluation process requires the formulation of a strategy to enhance future performance. This study aims to (1) Determine performance measurement techniques are applied in the current KPSBU, (2) Develop a performance measurement technique using the Balanced Scorecard (BSC), (3) Knowing KPSBU performance with BSC method, and (4) Develop a strategy to enhance performance in the future. The data collection methods through the literature, interviews, questionnaires and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Performance measurement is defined through the translation of the vision, mission and strategy into the BSC with 4 (four) perspectives of the performance of the membership perspective, financial perspective, internal business and learning and growth perspective. Formulation of a strategy to enhance performance using SWOT analysis. Furthermore, in selecting the best strategy to use Hirarchy Analytical Process (AHP). Review results illustrate that the current performance measurement in the emphasize on the aspect KPSBU financial performance of the financial balance sheet ratios of Liquidity, Solvency and Profitability (LSP). Formulation of performance measurement techniques by using the Balanced Scorecard sort of performance into four perspectives: The perspective of membership/customer; financial perspective, internal business process perspective, learning and growth perspective. Achievement of performance with BSC was 73.4%; Through SWOT analysis has composed 13 (thirteen) KPSBU performance improvement strategy, which is next to the AHP method can be chosen strategy 5 (five), the best strategy for improving performance in the future KPSBU.

Judul: Mercury Toxicity and It’s Effect on Histopathology Change of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).
Abstrak: Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is one of fish species that oportunity to contaminated with mercury. The effects of pollutants can damage living organisms organs and can cause death. The effects caused mercury had acute or chronic character. The aims of this study are to determine threshold and acute toxicity of mercury chloride (HgCl2) of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), to assess the effect of mercury chloride (HgCl2) on several biometric parameters (survival, growth rate of average daily weighted, liver condition, bile and reproductive variability of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), assess the level of damage to the histological structure of the gills, liver and kidney of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) caused mercury chloride (HgCl2) exposure. This study was conducted from February to June 2013. Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were used in this study were female with average weight 20 grams or 11-13 cm length range. Toxicant materials used in this study was mercury chloride (HgCl2). Fish were reared in each aquarium 60x40x30 containing 48 liters of water. This study consists of three stages: a preliminary test, acute test, and sub-chronic test. To determine the changes in biometric condition of tilapia approximated by measuring the survival rate (SR), the growth rate of average daily weight , the content of mercury in the fish organs, hepatosomatic index (HSI), the relative bile volume (VER), gonadal soamtic index (IKG), fecundity and oocit diameter, tissue damage caused by mercury in fish organs by making histological preparations stained with hematoxylin and eosin. The median lethal concentration (96 hr, LC50) of Mercury Chloride was calculated as 1,64 mgL--1.The survival rate was highest in the control treatment (46,67 %) . Mercury chloride with concentration 0.196 mgL--1 show significant effect to changes HSI and relative bile volume, and oocyte diameter of Nile tilapia (p < 0,05). Mercury chloride with a concentration of 0,164 mgL-1 and 0,196 mgL-1 have not a significant effect on the growth rate of weight, gonadal somatic index and fecundity of Nile tilapia (p > 0,05). Mercury chloride cause damage to gills (hyperplasia, hypertrophy, proliferation and neukrosis), liver (hyperplasia, hemorhage, shrinkage of hepatocytes, proliferation and neukrosis) and kidney (hyperplasia, hemorrhage, shrinkage of the glomerulus, proliferation and neukrosis).
