Abstract

This study focuses on PT. Permodalan Nasional Madani (PNM) Pematang Siantar Branch, with independent variables of discipline, loyalty, and work motivation, and the dependent variable being employee performance. The primary aim is to evaluate the impact of these three independent variables on employee performance in the context of financing distribution. The sample consists of 100 PNM employees from the Pematang Siantar Branch, selected using a census method, with data analysis conducted through SEM using SmartPLS. This includes multiple linear regression, correlation, and determination coefficients. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to all sample participants. The study results indicate that discipline does not influence employee performance. However, loyalty has a positive and significant effect on employee performance, as does work motivation.

Abstract

Indonesia is one of the largest contributors to nickel output in the world. The Indonesian government implemented a nickel export embargo that was previously planned for 2022, advancing to 2020. This government policy aims to increase economic added value, reduce dependence on raw material exports, and provide long-term benefits for the Indonesian economy and society. However, this policy caused dissatisfaction on the part of the European Union, which then sued Indonesia to the WTO with complaint number DS592. This research uses normative legal research methods. The results show that Indonesia does not prohibit the export of nickel that has been processed and refined, so that global nickel producers do not lack raw materials. Indonesia is also obliged to ensure the availability of supplies for domestic needs, especially for smelter players who have invested

Abstract

This research aims to obtain the best mixture of rabbit fertilizer with manure and the response to the best chili varieties. This research is a factorial experiment, with a basic randomized block design (RAK) with 2 factors being tried. The first factor with 3 levels: K 0 = no manure, K 1 = rabbit manure + cow manure, K 2 = rabbit manure + chicken manure.  Second factor with 3 chili varieties: V1= Rawita, V2= Ori 212, V3= Caliber and repeated 3 times. K1 gave the highest value for the fresh weight of harvested fruit per plant, namely 250.63 g. The Caliber V3 variety gave the highest value for the fresh weight of harvested fruit per plant, namely 252.87 g.
