Published: October 2020

This study describes the problem of high dependency on rice consumption in Papua while Papua has several local foods as alternative sources of carbohydrate. The study focuses on Papua province as the region that has many potential on local-non rice food like corn, cassava, and sweet potatoes, which then selected as the study objects. A ten-year series of data from 2006 to 2015 was obtained from BPS (Central Bureau of Statistics) and analyzed in this study. The results show that the development of local food was relatively slower in Papua Province compared to the national level, except for fish development. It is observed that the program to increase rice production is very intensive while the program to increase local food production has not been a concern of the local government. Programs to increase production, develop cultivation, production, and processing technologies are biased to rice production, resulting in the food diversification program trough local food development is likely difficult to be realized. Papua Province has a comparative advantage in local food because it is supported by the potential of natural resources and the culture of local community. Local food must be encouraged and promoted as–a major, healthy food source and at the same time, support the realization of food diversification programs in Indonesia.

Authors: Anwar S M , Sari H , Wahida A , Jasman J , Sampetan S , Pontoh G T
Published: October 2020

Hand soap is one of the products made from reu gongga bulbs, which is widely manufactured by the community. Hand soap, which is generally made from fat, has a high selling price caused by the price of fat, which is relatively expensive. These factors become the reason for the authors to propose alternative manufacture of hand soap at a fairly affordable price by using reu gongga bulbs as a raw material for making the hand soap. Processing reu gongga bulbs as raw material for hand soap can minimize the cost of raw materials, which will certainly affect the selling price of the hand soap and can create new ways of utilizing reu gongga bulbs, which are generally only used as cattle fodder. The aim and target of the results of the community service program activities are as an effort to help the community to maximize the production of processed hand soap based on reu gongga bulbs which can be used as an alternative effort in increasing community income. Hand soap made from reu gongga bulbs has a relatively low price compared to other hand soap without reducing the quality of the hand soap itself. Thus, it is expected to increase the productivity and income of the community. The development of increasingly sophisticated technology makes almost all manufacturers offer products in the online market. Thus, the authors are interested in participating in marketing products online. Online marketing, which is an alternative in the process of selling hand soap products, is social media in the form of Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook, etc.

Published: October 2020

The concept of dual channel supply chain (DCSC) allows retailers to sell their products broadly. Channel collaboration, offline and online, helps companies to survive amid the competition through increasing profits. Nonetheless a review of previous studies in DCSC provided no explicit model addressing consumer behavior to shift channel preference in two directions, offline to online as well as online to offline. This study proposes an analog model to elicit the factors that influence consumer preferences for switching channels from offline to online and from online to offline by using push pull mooring (PPM) approach. Such approach may identify the variables involved in consumer channel switching-intention. The selected object is apparel retailer under dual-channel structure. Furthermore the data is collected by means of questionnaires. Structural equation modelling (SEM) used to identify variables that have a significant effect on consumer switching intention. The results of this study may be used as reference for researchers and apparel retailer managers under DCSC structure to create their operational plans in conducting their business.

Damage to prehistoric cave drawings, like other cultural objects, is inevitable. This claim was widely accepted among researchers and observers of prehistoric culture in Indonesia. Even more so for images in karst caves with a medium for painting in the form of limestone surfaces that have dynamic properties. The life cycle of this rock type is influenced by natural processes, mainly by water factors such as dissolution and sedimentation. In addition, the sun, temperature fluctuations, and wind also accelerate the weathering rate, which causes many changes in the structure of the rock both thoroughly and massively, and partially. The belief in damage to prehistoric cave drawings in the Maros-Pangkep Karst Area has long been echoed by researchers and conservationists, but very few of these circles can prove how the damage process occurred, even to prove how fast the damage is. However, the development of image conditions can be measured by a simpler method to determine the speed of damage. This article offers a method that can be applied to cases of prehistoric cave image damage so that changes can be identified, in particular the volume of damage.

Peatlands are often associated with an area that has a specific habitat in a particular area. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics and associations of the dominant biodiversity in the Mappi Regency, Papua. The research method used was a survey. The survey was conducted in Bamgi District, Mappi, Papua. The results showed that peat soils in Mappi have characteristics that are categorized as fabric-peat. Acidity or soil pH condition belongs in the low category (3.95-4.53), moderate C-organic (16.31%), high nitrogen (1.09%), moderate C/N ratio (15.01), whereas soil texture was from clay loam to sandy silt loam. This peatland is associated with various types of important tree groups flora, such as sago, agarwood, or gaharu (Aquilaria spp), massoy tree, rubber, and whitebark tree or gambir. Based on the level of importance, this peatland area contains various important plant species. Thus it needs to be conserved with appropriate area management.

Rice is a strategic commodity, economic, and even political. Rice, as an economic commodity, can be seen from its ability to move the economy through the growth of fertilizer companies (organic and inorganic), seeds, pesticides, and agricultural tools and machinery. The research was carried out in the form of a demonstration in upland in Sidomukti Village, Jaken Subdistrict, Pati Regency, Central Java Province. The study was conducted in the dry season (DS) in 2018, using Ciherang rice varieties with Walik Jerami season in upland. The research consisted of 3 treatments, which were Introductory Technology 1 (T1) in the form of urea coated biochar (UCB), Introductory Technology 2 (T2) in the form of biocompost with balanced fertilization and farmer’s technique (T0). This results in rice ecosystems by means of farmers’ assistance produced higher fluxes than UCB and biocompost settings. Cumulative CH4 flux in the highest plot of farmer’s technique compared to UCB and biocompost, farmer’s technique produced 1,765.32 mgCH4m−2, biocompost produced 692.04 mgCH4m−2 while the UCB produced 471.67 mgCH4m−2 at the end of observation.
