ABSTRACT

Preservative is a food additive that is useful to prevent food spoilage by microorganisms. Meatballs are one of the most popular foods in the community. Some meatballs use preservatives in their processing. However, the use of synthetic preservatives such as benzoate and borax has a negative impact on health. This study was conducted to determine the content of borax and benzoate in meatballs sold by several meatball sellers and markets in Padang. Determination of borax and benzoate content was carried out using a UV-Vis Spectrophotometer. The results showed that from 5 samples tested, 1 sample contained benzoate and 2 samples contained borax. The level of benzoate contained in the sample is 12.46 g/kg, this exceeds the standard set by BPOM No. 36 of 2013, where the maximum limit for the use of benzoate in food is 1 g/kg. The levels of borax contained in the 2 samples tested were 0.93 g/kg and 1.56 g/kg. Based on the results obtained, it turns out that there are still people who use borax in food processing.

Key words : Benzoate, borax, meatballs, UV-Vis Spectrophotometer

ABSTRACT

The advancement of public knowledge about the adverse effects of synthetic detergent on the environment causes a gradual changes in modern lifestyle. Public have awareness to use natural materials that have minimum risk in daily cleaning activities. Cibodas Botanic Gardens (CBG) is an ex situ conservation institution that have a role as a reservoir of plant biodiversity. CBG has various species of Sapindaceae collection, a family known produced saponins which can be used as natural detergent, as well as valueable fruit. However, research on the Sapindaceae collection of CBG is limited to its fruit potential. Therefore, this study aims to inventory the Sapindaceae collection of CBG and to find out their potency as natural detergent. Literature researches were carried out through digital national and international journal databases and repositories. Our results showed that CBG had 18 species of Sapindaceae. A total of 12 species contain saponins and have antimicrobial activity. There is no Sapindaceae in the CBG which classified as a threatened plant species. The most important part of this research is to build a reference on the potency of Sapindaceae as a natural detergent by considering the aspects of conservation and sustainable use.

Key words : Cibodas, collection, detergent, saponin, Sapindaceae

ABSTRACT

One of the indicators of farming sustainability can be studied from its economic sustainability. In the city of Tarakan, mustard green is the largest type of vegetable produced compared to other vegetables. Meanwhile, leek is a spring onion that has a high price compared to other types of vegetables. The purpose of the study was to analyze the ratio of costs and revenues received by farmers in mustard green and spring onion, and to analyze the magnitude of the production risk. The research was conducted in Kampung Enam Village, Tarakan City. The time of the research was carried out in December 2019. The determination of the number of respondents was carried out by quota sampling by taking as many as 50 respondents. Analysis of the data used is the analysis of the value of the comparison of revenues and costs (R/C ratio). For risk analysis using variance, standard deviation, and coefficient variation. The results showed that the value of the R/C ratio of the mustard green farming was 1.06, which was lower than the R/C ratio of the spring onion of 1.26. The value of the coefficient of variation in mustard farming (0.43) and spring onion farming (0.68) is smaller than 1 which indicates that the production risk of mustard green and spring onion farming has a small risk. The sources of production risk from mustard and spring onion are due to changes in weather, pests and diseases. Alternatives to minimize risk can be done by plant diversification or intercropping.

Key words : coefficient of variation, production risk, R/C ratio

ABSTRACT

California papaya is one type of fruit in the City of Tarakan especially in the District of North Tarakan. In papaya farming, farmers face production risks that can affect the sustainability of their production. This research aims to identify sources of production risk, analyze the level of risk, and formulate strategies to address the risks of papaya production. The method of determining the sample is by using purposive sampling with 15 respondents. Data analysis used is quantitative descriptive, production risk assessment using variance, standard deviation and coefficient variation analysis. The results show that the sources of papaya production risk are fertilizers, seeds, pest and disease attacks and climate/weather changes. The coefficient variation value of 0,20 means that the farmer’s risk is 20% of the average production yield of 2.688 pieces to 2.150,4 pieces, so the production risk value is 538 pieces. The production risk management strategy is to build partners with manure suppliers, pay attention to each plant tree carefully and regularly from pest and disease attacks, make a ditch around the plant bed and observing weather changes in order to avoid losses during the papaya plant fertilization process.

Key words : California papaya, coefficient variation, production risk.

ABSTRACT

Jambu District, especially Brongkol Village, is one area that has the potential to develop coffee plants in the Semarang Regency area. The availability of production facilities or factors does not mean that the productivity obtained by farmers is also high. The purpose of this study was to determine the production factors that influence and the level of efficiency in Robusta coffee plants. The method used in this research is descriptive analytical method. Determination of the location of the research used is by purposive sampling method, by taking respondents, namely 61 coffee farmers respondents. Data analysis using multiple linear regression analysis with the Cobb-Douglas production function model and efficiency analysis includes technical, price, and economic efficiency. The results showed that the factors that significantly influence the level of Robusta coffee production were land area, number of mature plants, urea fertilizer, manure, and labor. The average value of technical efficiency is 0.86, while the average value of price efficiency is 46,708 so that the economic efficiency is 40,169. So it can be concluded that the level of technical efficiency, price, and economy of robusta coffee plants is not yet efficient.

Key words : Coffee, Robusta, Production, Efficiency, Price

ABSTRACT

Indonesia is one of the countries with the largest Muslim population in the world. But do the Muslim community in Indonesia have the awareness to consume halal-certified food? This study was conducted to determine the impact of halal information on the perceived risk of consumers on uncertified halal beef in order to increase consumer awareness of beef. Paired t-test is used to find out whether there is a difference in the risk perceived by consumers for ucertified beef before and after being given information about the halalness of beef. The results obtained show a sig. (2 tailed) of 0.00 which shows that there is a difference in the risk perceived by consumers before and after the provision of halal information.

Key words : risk perception, consumers, knowledge, beef, halal certification
