Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal composition of fat (butter-margarine) and cornstarch for the physicochemical properties (hardness, water content, starch content, and fat content) of cassava flour cookies using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Additionally, this study aimed to evaluate the physicochemical characteristics of the optimized cassava flour cookies. The research employed RSM with a Central Composite Design (CCD) approach involving the fat composition (a mixture of butter and margarine) and cornstarch. 13 treatment combinations were generated and analyzed using Design Expert 13 software. The results showed that adding fat significantly influenced all responses. At the same time, cornstarch addition significantly affected hardness, water content, and starch content but did not significantly affect fat content. The optimal formulation was determined to contain 65% fat and 20% cornstarch, achieving the highest desirability value of 0.9490. The physicochemical parameters of the optimized cassava flour cookies were as follows: hardness (5.44 N), water content (4.54%), starch content (36.95%), fat content (34.91%), ash content (0.58%), protein content (8.13%), carbohydrate content (51.85%), and dietary fiber (7.78%).

Abstract

Agriculture remains a crucial sector as it is interconnected with various aspects, particularly the horticulture subsector, which is increasingly favored by farmers due to its relatively shorter harvest periods, especially for vegetables and fruits. This subsector holds a vital position as a promising agricultural product to be developed, and its growth is expected to boost the local economy and contribute to the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) of Gresik Regency. The government has prioritized the development of horticulture agribusiness, particularly fruit production, as it can enhance community income. This study aims to analyze the leading commodities in the fruit horticulture subsector that serve as base and non-base sectors in Gresik Regency, identifying their current and future positions. Using secondary data from the Central Bureau of Statistics, the study applies Location Quotient (LQ) and Delta Location Quotient (?LQ) methods to classify the potential of commodities into four categories: stars, mature, emerging, and transforming. Based on the analysis, water apple is identified as a "star" commodity, mango and rambutan fall into the "mature" category, starfruit, guava, pomelo, mangosteen, papaya, banana, soursop, and Breadfruit are in the "emerging" category. At the same time, avocado, durian, and mandarin orange are classified as "transforming" commodities.
