Papaya (Carica papaya. L) fruit is a tropical fruit with high nutritional that can be eaten fresh as well as processed fruit. The demand for the papaya is constantly increasing in line with public awareness for healthy living. This study aims to determine consumer preferences to papaya collection of Indonesian Tropical Fruit Research Institute. Sampling was carried out randomly respondents of the 100 people. Each respondent was asked to fill out questionnaires to assess the 25 genotypes papaya ITFRI collection. Data were tabulated and analyzed descriptively. The survey results was found that 8 genotypes of papaya with medium and small fruit sizes were preferred by more than 80% of respondents, fruit flavor characters was from 25 samples of selected genotypes 6 papaya genotypes favored by consumers (more than 80% of respondents chose to like), while the character of flesh color > 80% respondents chose to like the color orange red meat

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

The promising agribusiness sector is the agricultural sector, this sector is very important to be developed to meet the needs of the world community. One sector that has the potential to be developed is beef cattle farming which is part of the livestock sub-sector. Beef cattle are the largest meat contributor from the ruminant group to national meat production, so they are a promising livestock business and have the potential to be developed as a business. This study uses a descriptive analysis method with a survey. The types of data collected include primary data and secondary data using interview techniques, participatory observation and Focused Group Discussion (FGD) and Delphi techniques. Madura Island is the largest Madura cattle producing island in East Java, one of which is in the Sampang area. The results of the analysis obtained that the implementation of the local Madura cattle business started from the stage of maintenance and care, fattening, controlling disease types in Madura local cattle, as well as the role of government agencies and farmer groups in the development of local Madura cattle business.
