Menelisik keberhasilan dalam sistem ketahanan pangan Indonesia berdasarkan prinsip “bottom up”

Latar Belakang: Berdasarkan data Kementerian terdapat 15,8% kabupaten dan 4% kota di Indonesia masih memiliki IKP dalam kategori rendah. Sebagian kota/kabupaten dengan persentase rendah berada di wilayah timur Indonesia. Hal ini berarti pemerataan pangan di Indonesia masih belum tercapai. Tujuan riset ini untuk menganalisa keberhasilan ketahanan pangan di Indonesia. Metode: Penelitian  ini menggunakan metode kualititatif deskriprif melaui proses literature review untuk memahami berbagai data sekunder yang dimiliki. Proses analisis akan menghasilkan temuan mengenai kebijakan yang dapat dilakukan oleh pemerintah. Temuan: Penelitian ini menganalisis ketahanan pangan dengan tenuan sebagai berikut. Konsep ketahanan pangan di Indonesia dirasa sudah cukup baik dengan membertimbangkan aspek ketersediaan, keterjangkauan, dan kualitas pangan. Namun implementasi kebijakan ketahanan pangan perlu diperkuat dengan memperhitungkan aspek inovasi, konteks, kolaborasi, dan implementasi. Kesimpulan: Untuk itu diperlukan adanya  sinergi dan kolaborasi dari seluruh stakeholder yang berkaitan dengan WEF nexus. Prinsip WEF nexus dengan konsep “bottom-up” memungkinkan pemerintah mengidentifikasi permasalahan secara faktual yang akan membangun solusi melalui kebijakan yang dapat diterima oleh masyarakat setempat

The influence of temperature and solvent quantity on soxhlet extraction process towards total phenolic content (TPC)

oai:ojs2.journal-iasssf.com:article/426Banana is a giant herbaceous plant with elongated large leaves from the Musaceae family. Several types of bananas (Musa acuminate, M. balbisiana, and M. paradisiaca) produce edible fruits that are named the same. Banana production in Indonesia is quite large. According to the Fixed Figures (ATAP) in 2013, banana production reached 6.28 million tons. The purpose of this research is to determine the total phenol content in kepok banana peels using the extraction method (soxhlet) with variations of solvents, namely ethanol and methanol. First, the material is cleaned, dried under the sun and oven, then blended into powder, made into simplisia, then extracted in a soxhlet tube, and the final step is separation. The results of the analysis obtained stated that the highest phenol content was obtained in methanol solvent, namely 0.82 mg/g GAE

Pembangunan pertanian dalam menentukan model pembangunan pertanian di desa Wonolopo

Modernization is the process of transformation from traditional conditions towards more modern, developed, and prosperous states. This occurs across various aspects of community life, including rural areas. This research was conducted in Wonolopo Village with the aim of understanding its potential, issues, structural transformation, institutional transformation, and technological transfer. The research method utilized was descriptive analytics, gathering data through interviews. The research findings indicate that Wonolopo Village holds potential in the agricultural sector, particularly in rice and sugarcane cultivation. However, the main issue lies in fertilizer availability. Structural transformation occurs with each change of village leadership, while institutional transformation has been relatively limited in the past decade. Technological transfer has occurred, notably in the adoption of tractors in agriculture. Analysis of agricultural development models suggests the need for technological and institutional innovations to maximize Wonolopo Village's potential. The conclusion of this research underscores the importance of developing agricultural development models tailored to the village's conditions and potential, as well as the significance of collaboration with knowledgeable human resources. Recommendations include the necessity for improvement in village potential management and collaboration with more proficient human resources

Analisis dampak alih fungsi lahan subak terhadap kerawanan bencana banjir: (Studi kasus di desa Jatiluwih, kecamatan Penebel, kabupaten Tabanan, provinsi Bali)

Subak is a local wisdom in Bali in the form of a socio-cultural agrarian system for the management of rice fields with irrigation or irrigation systems regulated by members of the Subak group. In its management, Subak land tends to experience degradation due to external interventions as tourism interest grows in Bali. The conversion of land to increase tourism facilities in Bali leads to a decrease in the area of rice fields managed with the Subak system. In the research location, namely Jatiluwih Village, Penebel District, Tabanan Regency, land degradation is identified due to the transformation of agricultural land into non-agricultural land such as hotels or homestays and restaurants to support the tourism sector. Previous research recorded the presence of 10 homestay units and restaurants with medium to large land use sizes on the main road in Jatiluwih Village. This number will continue to increase depending on the promotion and continuous tourism interventions, resulting in ongoing land conversions. Based on spatial observations, rice fields with the Subak system in Jatiluwuh Village cover an area of ​​360 hectares integrated with a river flow along 80 kilometers. The rainfall in Jatiluwih Village falls under the very high category, which is >500mm. This further reinforces the potential for flooding if the existing land is not well managed. So far, there have been no reports of flooding in Jatiluwih Village due to the overflowing of water in the fields caused by long rainy seasons or storms. However, continuous tourism expansion as a result of Subak being designated as one of UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2012, has the potential to further reduce the area of ​​rice fields with the Subak system, which play a role in the infiltration and perforation of water into the soil. Policies related to tourism growth while preserving Subak rice fields in Jatiluwih Village need to be balanced, so that their existence can continue, especially in avoiding rice field degradation and preventing the potential for floods

Comparative analysis of ethylene-induced ripening in climacteric and non-climacteric fruits: implications for post-harvest management

Background: Ethylene gas contained in fruits can increase the respiration rate. Climacteric fruits are those that experience automatic stimulation towards ripening, accompanied by an increase in respiration rate, as seen in bananas. Non-climacteric fruits, such as oranges, do not experience such an increase or change in respiration rate. The rate of fruit ripening is influenced by temperature, storage conditions, and the use of chemical agents to accelerate ripening. The aim of this article is to investigate the effects of closed and open storage environments, as well as the concentration of chemical agents used in the storage process. Methods: This study used bananas and tomatoes, which were placed in both open and closed storage, and stored in pairs. Additionally, the article discusses the concentration of carbide as a chemical agent that triggers the ripening of oranges. Findings: The results show that bananas and tomatoes are climacteric fruits. The storage treatment of bananas indicated that, across all conditions—whether stored in open or closed environments, or stored together with tomatoes—the outcome was the same: the fruits showed signs of deterioration within one week. For tomatoes, it was observed that storing them in a closed environment led to greater longevity compared to other storage methods. The treatment of oranges showed that ripening occurred more rapidly with the application of carbide compared to without its use. Conclusion: Ethylene gas is a crucial factor in the post-harvest management of various fruits and vegetables. Inadequate handling can lead to mechanical damage. In practice, bananas produce the most ethylene gas compared to tomatoes and oranges. Furthermore, bananas can influence the ripening of surrounding fruits. The use of carbide in different concentrations demonstrated that 10 grams of carbide led to faster ripening and yellowing of oranges compared to lower concentrations or the absence of carbide. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study uniquely integrates the analysis of natural and chemically-induced ethylene effects on climacteric and non-climacteric fruits under varied storage conditions, providing novel insights for optimizing post-harvest management across diverse fruit types
