    Kebutuhan Sistem Informasi Komunikasi Pasar Tepat Waktu Bagi Pemasaran Lokal, Domestik, dan Ekspor Produk Agribisnis Kabupaten Kerinci

    Full text link
    Fenomena yang terjadi selama ini pengusaha agribisnis/petani produsen belum menggunakan jasa sistem informasi komunikasi pasar tepat waktu. Sehingga pengusaha agribisnis tidak mengetahui harga pasar yang sebenarnya sehingga menjual produk dengan harga murah, produsen akan selalu dirugikan karena menjual produk dengan harga murah, pendapatan petani produsen tetap selalu rendah dan hidup di bawah garis kemiskinan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode riset partisipatoris yaitu kegiatan yang dilakukan oleh peneliti mengikuti dan memahami serta membahas masalah-masalah yang dihadapi masyarakat produsen/pedagang agribisnis dan juga melakukan pola pembinaannya. Untuk itu, peneliti bertemu langsung dengan masyarakat produsen/pedagang agribisnis dan menjalin persahabatan dengan sejumlah anggota masyarakat dalam menyelesaikan permasalahan penelitian. Metode ini berdampingan dengan menggunakan pendekatan Descriptive analysis untuk menjawab masalah yang memerlukan keterangan, gambaran dan sejenisnya secara faktual dan aktual. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah populasi terhingga. Sampel Penelitian ada di wilayah sentra produksi agribisnis Kecamatan Kayu Aro Kabupaten Kerinci. Hasil penelitian, pengusaha agribisnis terutama petani agribisnis sebagian belum menggunakan komunikasi pasar tepat waktu dan sebagian sudah menggunakan komunikasi pasar tepat waktu. Bagi pedagang perantara sudah melakukan sistem informasi komunikasi pasar tepat waktu baik untuk pemasaran lokal, domestik dan ekspor dan dapat menggunakannya dengan baik dan benar. Pengusaha agribisnis sudah dibina untuk dapat mengetahui harga pasar dengan menggunakan media komunikasi telepon rumah dan handphone. Oleh karena itu petani produsen dan pedagang agribisnis agar membentuk jejaring informasi komunikasi pasar pada semua pedagang agen di luar provinsi dan semua pedagang agen di luar pulau dan membentuk wadah persatuan informasi harga serta bersatu dalam menentukan harga pasar dan tidak saling menjatuhkan harga

    <i>N</i>-Oxyamide-containing compounds have shown improved metabolic stability and interesting secondary structures due to the good hydrogen bond-donating property of <i>N</i>-oxyamide. β-Glucolipids linked by the <i>N</i>-oxyamide bond have been successfully synthesized as novel mimics of glycoglycerolipids and glycosphingolipids

    Color-Shape Associations Revealed with Implicit Association Tests

    <div><p>Kandinsky proposed a correspondence theory that suggests associations between specific colors and shapes (i.e., circle-blue, square-red, triangle-yellow). Makin and Wuerger tested the theory using the Implicit Association Test (IAT) and did not find clear evidence for Kandinsky’s color-shape associations among British participants. In the present study, we first replicated the previous study among Japanese participants and found similar results to those of Makin and Wuerger, showing little support for Kandinsky’s theory. In the subsequent experiment, we tested another set of color-shape associations that had been revealed by using an explicit matching method (circle-red, square-blue, triangle-yellow) in Japanese participants. The IAT tests showed that response times were significantly faster when circle-red, square-blue, and triangle-yellow combinations were mapped onto the same response key, rather than different key combinations, indicating that these color-shape combinations were encoded. These results provide the first empirical evidence that color-shape associations can be measured by indirect behavioral methods, and in particular, Japanese people’s color-shape associations (circle-red, square-blue, triangle-yellow) can be observed by both direct and indirect experimental methods.</p></div
