Abstract

AbstractIndonesia is a maritime country with many unutilize resources but high in experiences in the world trade pass through ocean. However, in this era, the ocean and the fishery sector of Indonesia confront the new challenge called Asian Economy Society (MEA). The Policy of accelerating the Ocean and the fishery industrialization is one of the strategic step to face MEA. It must be sinergistic with the increase of the trade performance between islands. The increase of the trade performance between islands could be done by constructing new harbor through the approachment of “Tol Laut” and the change of consumer behavior. It will affect in : (1) The increase of market share in the ocean and the fishery comodity in Global Market ; (2) The Acceleration of the Ocean and the fishery industrialization ; (3) The increase of value of the ocean and the fishery comodity ; (4) The increase of The state’s income ; (5) The increase of fhiserman and fish farmer prosperity ; (6) The Defense of The Unity of the Republic of Indonesia.Key Word : MEA, trade between Islands, performance, Industrialization

Abstract

AbstractBusiness of aren sugar processing intends to providing alternative sweetener source to fulfill sugar demand for community. Nonetheless, every business has a risk particularly agricultural product in general, including aren sugar processing business in which the raw resources were obtained from aren.The purpose of this research was to analyze the type and stage of risk related to aren sugar processing business in Kolaka District. Simple random sampling method was used to decide sample on this research. Quantitative descriptive analysis and coefficient of variance was used to analyze types and stages of risk in aren sugar processing business. The result of the research showed that there are six type risks on the extraction process, five type risks on aren cooking process, and one type risk on marketing. Risk types which have quantification value is analyzed for its risk stages, including raw material risk, production risk and price risk. Raw material risk had the highest stage of risk among other risks. Authority for endorsing continuity and development of aren sugar processing business was a based-risk development strategy, especially for raw material risk, as well as mentoring of production risk and marketing management.Keywords. risk, profit, aren sugar processing business

Abstract

AbstractThe construction and development of the maritime sector has placed maritme-economic as the basic of economic development in Indonesia is one of the priority of vision and mission that will be realized by The Government of Jokowi. Indonesia, The Maritime Country, holds the potential of huge natural resources, but in fact, it does not provide the better livehood for coastal communities, especially for the household of seaweed farmers in Ranooha Village, South Konawe Regency. The women in Bajo, as part of household systems, act in the income sustainability of households. The purpose of this research is to determine the affecting factor of the roles of women in the household income sustainability of seaweed farmers. This research was conducted at Ranooha Village, Moramo District, South Konawe Regency. The research method is quantitative. The data were analyzed by using Chi-Square analysis tools. The population in this research is the seaweed farmers (households) in Ranooha Village distributing in 4 hamlets. Sample of Hamlets were selected purposively, in terms adapted on the purpose and the need of the research. The sampling technique was perfomed randomly by observing the existing level, which meant that every level of corresponds were represented proportionately. The number of samples in this research were 50 of homogeneous ethnic communities and 50 of heterogeneous ethnic communities. Those were expected to represent the number of the population members. The results showed that the affecting factors of the roles of women in the household livelihood sustainability were women characteristics, living systems, and actions of rasionality.Keywords : Roles, Women, Sustainability, Livelihood, Household, Farmer

Abstract

We observed that physical and chemical properties of sago palm growing in three subdistricts of Southeast Sulawesi Province were different with sago growing area in Papua and North Maluku Provinces. Soil texture was loamy to silty loam, BD was 0.598 to 1.360 g/cm3 and water table was 20 to 150 cm depth. Soil pH was 5.21 to 6.34, available P, total N, and exchangeable K, Ca and Mg was low to very low. C-organic was variable from low to very high. Average of monthly rainfall was 56 to 79 mm month-1 in dry season to 200 to 450 mm month-1 in wet season, temperature was 15 to 34o C in Southeast Sulawesi Province. Agronomic characteristics indecated that there are three sago types was observed in Southeast Sulawesi Province, more the seven types of sago palm was observed in Sentani Papua Province and five types of sago palm was observed in Noth Maluku Province. The average of trunk fresh weight was 822 kg/palm on spiny type sago to 2093 kg/palm on nonspiny type sago. Plant age of sago palm at harvest time was 6.40 years after trunk form on spiny type sago and 9.75 year after trunk form on nonspiny type sago. We concluded that the diversity and biomass potential of sago palm grown in Sentani Papua Province was higher than sago palm grown in Maba North Maluku and Southeast Sulawesi Provinces.

Abstract

Phenological traits of Kandelia obovata (S., L.) Yong was investigated on the basis of seasonal leaf recruit, leaf death and leaf growth. The seasonal leaf growth was estimated using the logistic growth curve. Leaf recruitment, leaf death and reproductive cycle were obtained by survey data. This study results showed that new leaf recruitment occurred during the year indicating high productivity of mangrove Kandelia obovata forest. The highest leaf recruit was in July, while it was the lowest in January. However, the highest leaf death was in August, whereas it was the lowest in January. Growth pattern of leaves varied among seasons as of winter leaves are taken longger time to get their maximum size, while other season leaves are taken short time to get their maximum size. Period from flowering to mature propagules of K. obovata trees is considered to be around 12 months, while most the propagules become mature in the next spring season (April and May), which indicated shorter reproduction cycle.
