Abstract

This study compares two prediction methods, Weighted Moving Average (WMA) and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO), in forecasting the total palm oil production at PT. Mora Niaga Jaya. Accurate forecasting is essential in the palm oil industry to support decision-making, optimize production planning, and manage supply chains efficiently. The WMA method produced more realistic prediction results, with a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 114,854 tons and a Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of 220.45%, despite still having a considerable margin of error. These values suggest that while WMA is not perfectly accurate, it performs moderately well, given the complexity and variability inherent in agricultural production data. On the other hand, the LASSO method yielded significantly worse results, with an extremely high and unrealistic MAE and a MAPE of 291,456.000%, indicating that this approach is unsuitable for palm oil production forecasting in this specific case. The underperformance of the LASSO method may be due to the nature of the data used, which may not meet the assumptions required for LASSO to function optimally, such as linear relationships and minimal noise. This highlights the importance of aligning forecasting methods with the dataset's characteristics. Based on the comparison, it can be concluded that the WMA method is more appropriate for predicting palm oil production than LASSO. However, further steps such as parameter optimization, data normalization, and outlier removal should be undertaken to achieve better predictive accuracy. This research provides valuable insights into the importance of selecting the correct predictive method and ensuring data quality in forecasting. Ultimately, careful model selection and data preprocessing support effective operational and strategic decisions in the palm oil industry.

Abstract

Composite materials are extensively utilized across various fields such as engineering, aviation, automotive, construction, and healthcare. This widespread application highlights their superior properties, often absent in the individual constituent materials. Additionally, composites offer the advantage of being easily fabricated to meet specific requirements, and incorporating natural fibers as reinforcement has gained significant interest due to their environmental friendliness and abundance. Among these, nanocellulose is a promising green material due to its unique characteristics. Specifically, cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), nanoscale derivatives of nanocellulose, have attracted considerable attention as reinforcement agents in composite fabrication. This interest stems from CNC's notable advantages, including excellent mechanical properties, a high crystallinity index, plentiful availability, low weight, and eco-friendly nature. This study was undertaken to investigate the impact of varying concentrations of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) (0, 0.5, 0.75, 1 wt%) on the mechanical properties, specifically the tensile and flexural properties, of epoxy resin/cellulose nanocrystal (E/CNC) nanocomposites. The materials employed in this research include epoxy resin, hardener, and cellulose nanocrystals. The fabrication of the E/CNC nanocomposites was carried out through a straightforward mixing method, wherein the constituent materials were blended following the defined experimental parameters, followed by the molding process. The findings of this study indicate that the incorporation of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) significantly enhances the mechanical properties of E/CNC nanocomposites. The E/0.75CNC nanocomposite showed optimal tensile strength (39.91 MPa; +4.95%), while E/1CNC exhibited superior flexural strength (65.78 MPa; +5.08%) compared to the unmodified epoxy baseline.

Abstract

This paper discusses Sanskrit language learning as a strategic instrument in strengthening the values of multiculturalism and religious moderation in Indonesia. Sanskrit has not only historical value as a heritage of Hindu-Buddhist civilization but also contains universal teachings such as dharma, Ahimsa, tat twam asi, and vasudhaiva kutumbakam, which are relevant in the context of a plural society. Through a qualitative approach with observation, Documentation, and literature study methods, this research shows that Sanskrit learning can shape the character of students who are tolerant, inclusive, and have a nationalistic outlook. The learning model developed is contextual, dialogical, and collaborative and integrates the values of diversity and interfaith understanding. Despite facing challenges such as the stigma of exclusivism, limited teachers, and low motivation to learn, learning Sanskrit remains relevant for character education and strengthening social cohesion. Therefore, innovative pedagogical strategies and inclusive curriculum policies are needed so that Sanskrit can contribute significantly to building a harmonious Indonesian society with diversity.

Abstract

This study examines the engineering and application of sustainable composite materials as an alternative to traditional Balinese architectural ornaments through a comparative analysis of four material types: fiberglass, precast concrete, glass fiber-reinforced cement (GRC), and artificial sandstone. The scarcity of natural materials, growing ecological pressures, and the demand for economic efficiency and ease of production have driven the exploration of engineered materials that can represent Balinese architecture's aesthetic, symbolic, and spiritual values. The research employs a descriptive-qualitative methodology involving field observations, in-depth interviews with local artisans, and an analysis of each material's technical and cultural characteristics. Fiberglass and GRC stand out for their form flexibility and suitability for mass production, while precast concrete offers superior structural durability and long-term maintenance efficiency. Meanwhile, community-driven innovations in artificial sandstone exhibit strong potential for preserving traditional values while addressing contemporary sustainability challenges. The findings suggest that no single material emerges as universally superior; therefore, material selection should be context-dependent, considering both economic feasibility and cultural compatibility. The study concludes that integrating material innovation into traditional architecture must be grounded in circular economy principles, active community participation, and a deep understanding of vernacular values. These insights are expected to serve as a strategic reference for material selection in preserving Balinese cultural heritage while supporting the contextual and competitive development of the local creative industry within the Southeast Asian region.

Abstract

The selection of cafés that match customer preferences is a challenge, especially in the city of Lhokseumawe, which has 30 cafés with different characteristics. This research implements the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) algorithm to provide recommendations for the best café based on six criteria, namely price (weight 0.25), menu (0.2), order duration (0.15), service (0.2), facilities (0.15), and discounts promotions (0.05). The recommendation system was developed using a combination of Laravel PHP and Python, where Laravel is used to build an interactive web interface. Python also plays a role in data processing and complex mathematical calculations. The results showed that the system was able to provide optimal recommendations, with Petrodollar Coffeeatery Roastery as the top choice based on the calculation of the highest preference values (3.28 for price, 2.48 for menu, 3.16 for order duration, 2.88 for service, 2.96 for facilities, and 2.8 for discounts promotions). TR Coffee and Platinum Coffee occupy the following positions. In addition, this study found that the weight of the criteria and the number of datasets (150 reviewers) significantly influence the quality of recommendations. The more representative the weights used and the larger the dataset analyzed, the more accurate the system will produce recommendations based on user preferences. Thus, weight optimization and dataset expansion are essential factors in improving the effectiveness of SAW-based recommendation systems.

Abstract

This study aims to identify challenges and opportunities for medicinal plant conservation in Indonesian forests, focusing on local communities' role, technology use, and government policies. Indonesia's forests, rich in medicinal plants, face grave threats from deforestation and land conversion for agriculture. Climate change is also exacerbating the sustainability of medicinal plants by changing their growth patterns. Local communities living around forest areas have traditional knowledge that is critical to the conservation of medicinal plants. If properly utilized, this knowledge can help maintain the sustainability of medicinal plant species and minimize the negative impacts of land conversion. In addition, information technology and biotechnology offer solutions for monitoring and preserving medicinal plants. Mapping and active compound extraction technologies can improve conservation quality and facilitate the development of medicinal plant-based products for modern medicine. However, a significant challenge faced is the lack of policies that support medicinal plant conservation and the lack of clarity in regulations governing the utilization of these plants. Community empowerment through conservation education and training is key to the long-term success of medicinal plant conservation. By integrating the community's traditional knowledge, supportive policies, and modern technology, medicinal plant conservation can be carried out sustainably. This research emphasizes the importance of collaboration between the government, local communities, and the private sector in achieving conservation goals that are more effective and beneficial for all parties.
