Abstract

Corn is a food that referred the most essential after rice in the lives of people in Indonesia. In addition to human consumption, corn is also an ingredient for the production of animal feed that was active when the noodles into agribusiness mover. However, the issue of development of maize production in Indonesia is still importing noodles and outside negeni to meet domestic needs. Factors Natural Resources (SDA) and the weather elements such as precipitation, air temperature and humidity play a role in influencing the level of productivity of maize.The purpose of the study was to determine the extent of precipitation , air temperature and humidity affect the productivity of maize in the district of Langkat. The benefit is as a source of information and economic development of the agricultural sector, to increase farmers' income and GDP corn Langkat through more effective management system den efficiently on natural resources , weather and climate.Rainfall is ideal for corn is between 100-200 mm per month with distnibusi evenly. Growth of corn plants so the response to sunlight and moisture content in the atmosphere . The combination of weather factors between rainfall, air temperature and humidity ideal will lead to increased productivity of maize over the maximum.Sources of data were taken and the Department of Agriculture Langkat , the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) Langkat, Sampali Climatological Station and Office Center for Meteorology and Geophysics Region I Field. Processing methods with the computer program SPSS version 19 using analysis regeresi linear equations, test "F", test "t", the coefficient of determination R2 and significant . The analysis showed that rainfall , air temperature and humidity have a significant effect on the level of productivity of maize in the region Langkat. Keywords : Elements of weather and productivity of corn.

Abstract

The red chili commodities is the important contribution in farming, but the nature of this perishable commodity, is seasonal, while consumption occurs throughout the year, it requires a good marketing system. The objectives of this study to get a current red chili marketing system at the Batubara District and analyze the most efficient marketing system and analyze the margin of red chilli marketing at the Batubara District. The methode of study is descriptive quantitative by questionnaire. Respondents consisted of 26 farmers producers, collector of 26, merchant retailers of 18.  The result of studies shows that : 1) the marketing channel 3 has the lowest marketing margin of Rp. 4500, 2) smaller marketing margins obtained from the small price difference between farm gate price and the retail price level (consumer price). This shows the marketing channel 3 is more efficient than marketing channels 1, 2 and 4 . However, based to the amount of red chili farmers who choose to use channel 3 is lower than channels 1 and 2 . So operationally channel 3 is not necessarily more efficient because it is only used by 18.57 % of the farmers while channel 1 at 42.85, and channel 2 at 25.71 %. The role of stakeholders to improve the income of farmers through efficient marketing channels is needed. Government efforts are needed to increase their knowledge of processing technologies in the long term so that farmers are able to cultivate chili production in the form of home industry Keywords : efficiency, marketing, chili

Abstract

Perkembangan luas areal kelapa sawit sangat mengkhawatirkan karena sudah merangsek ke areal dengan kemiringan lebih dari 40%. Masalahnya bukan hanya karena nilai produktivitas sawit  yang rendah, tetapi juga karena laju deforestasi semakin meningkat. Kajian bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi nilai keberlanjutan kelapa sawit di Tapanuli Selatan, dalam rangka memberikan pilihan strategi penerapan Rencana Aksi Sawit Berkelanjutan (RAD-SB). Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah eksploratif dan survei lapangan dengan Interview terstruktur dan tidak terstruktur dengan petani independen, agen TBS  dan pengelola PKS. Hasil penelitian dikelompokkan dua strategi yaitu strategi pada tingkat kelembagaan di Kabupaten dan strategi pada tingkat lapangan di Desa. Pada tingkat kelembagaan di Kabupaten terlihat bahwa peranan lembaga pendukung yang tergabung dalam FOKSBI masih belum solid, meskipun sudah memiliki komitmen yang sama untuk menerapkan aksi pembangunan sawit berkelanjutan.Elaborasi aspek-aspek keberlanjutan yang diperlukan untuk menerapkan RAD-SB masih dimengerti dalam dimensi yang berbeda-beda. Strategi tingkat lapangan bertujuan untuk mencari cara-cara atau sistem budidaya sederhana untuk meningkatkan pendapatan petani, tanpa merusak sumberdaya hutan dan lahan. Terdapat potensi yang besar untuk meningkatkan produktivitas TBS tanpa merusak sumberdaya alam, meningkatkan kualitas buah dan melepas jerat monopoli pasar TBS yang terjadi. Praktik budidaya ekspansif dapat diubah menjadi budidaya hemat lahan dengan sistem perkebunan yang lebih intensif dan teknologi yang sederhana, murah, mudah dan memenuhi persyaratan konservasi. Penguatan lembaga penyuluhan dan pendanaan berkelanjutan merupakan keniscayaan penerapan RAD-SB agar meeningkatkan output  dan outcome yang nyata, yaitu terwujudnya kesejahteraan petani secara luas dan terwujunya sustainable-landscape di Tapanuli Selatan.
