Kinerja agribisnis yang baik dipengaruhi oleh pembangunan subsektor agribisnis hulu, subsektor pertanian primer, subsektor agribisnis hilir dan subsektor jasa penunjang secara simultan dan harmonis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk merumuskan strategi penguatan kinerja agribisnis cabai merah di kabupaten Temanggung. Pemilihan daerah dilakukan secara purposive di kecamatan Bulu dan Tlogomulyo, kabupaten Temanggung. Penelitian dilakukan pada bulan Desember 2010 dengan menggunakan pendekatan focused grup discussion (FGD) dan wawancara yang melibatkan 15 orang keypersons. Penelitian ini menggunakan Teknik analisis deskriptif kuantitatif dan analytic hierarchy Process (AHP). Hasil analisis AHP menunjukkan bahwa terdapat tiga prioritas utama yang perlu dilaksanakan dalam strategi penguatan kinerja agribisnis cabai merah di Kabupaten Temanggung adalah penyediaan dan akses modal yang diperuntukkan bagi USAhatani cabai merah, pendampingan penerapan teknologi budidaya yang tepat kepada petani, dan pemerintah menyediakan sarana pasar agro yang bisa menampung hasil budidaya hortikultura di kabupaten Temanggun

The average at first cycle is 3,4increased to 3,8 at second cycle. Then the ability of teachers to implement learning by using model Cooperative Learning type Think-Pair-Share included in good categories. The average at first cycle is 2,7 increased to 3,1 at second cycle. While the student\u27s activity in learning Social Science using medel Cooperative Learning type Think-Pair-Share has increased. At first cycle is 56,25% increased to 73,96 at second cycle

Autoimmune encephalitis and CSF anti-glur3 antibodies in an MS patient after alemtuzumab treatment

A 45-year-old Italian woman, affected by relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RR-MS) starting from 2011, started treatment with alemtuzumab in July 2016. Nine months after the second infusion, she had an immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) with complete recovery after steroid treatment. Three months after the ITP, the patient presented with transient aphasia, cognitive deficits, and focal epilepsy. Serial brain magnetic resonance imaging showed a pattern compatible with encephalitis. Autoantibodies to glutamate receptor 3 peptide A and B were detected in cerebrospinal fluid and serum, in the absence of any other diagnostic cues. After three courses of intravenous immunoglobulin (0.4 mg/kg/day for 5 days, 1 month apart), followed by boosters (0.4 mg/kg/day) every 4-6 weeks, her neurological status improved and is currently comparable with that preceding the encephalitis. Autoimmune complications of the central nervous system during alemtuzumab therapy are relatively rare: only one previous case of autoimmune encephalitis following alemtuzumab treatment has been reported to date

Antibody response elicited by the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine booster in patients with multiple sclerosis: Who gains from it?

Background and purpose: Although two doses of COVID-19 vaccine elicited a protective humoral response in most persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS), a significant group of them treated with immunosuppressive disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) showed less efficient responses. Methods: This prospective multicenter observational study evaluates differences in immune response after a third vaccine dose in pwMS. Results: Four hundred seventy-three pwMS were analyzed. Compared to untreated patients, there was a 50-fold decrease (95% confidence interval [CI] = 14.3–100.0, p < 0.001) in serum SARS-CoV-2 antibody levels in those on rituximab, a 20-fold decrease (95% CI = 8.3–50.0, p < 0.001) in those on ocrelizumab, and a 2.3-fold decrease (95% CI = 1.2–4.6, p = 0.015) in those on fingolimod. As compared to the antibody levels after the second vaccine dose, patients on the anti-CD20 drugs rituximab and ocrelizumab showed a 2.3-fold lower gain (95% CI = 1.4–3.8, p = 0.001), whereas those on fingolimod showed a 1.7-fold higher gain (95% CI = 1.1–2.7, p = 0.012), compared to patients treated with other DMTs. Conclusions: All pwMS increased their serum SARS-CoV-2 antibody levels after the third vaccine dose. The mean antibody values of patients treated with ocrelizumab/rituximab remained well below the empirical "protective threshold" for risk of infection identified in the CovaXiMS study (>659 binding antibody units/mL), whereas for patients treated with fingolimod this value was significantly closer to the cutoff

Corn-seed Technology: A Study of a New Technology Introduce to Farmer Using Importance Performance Analysis

The effort to increase hybrid maize in Indonesia is one of the government's crucial programs. Given that multinational companies still master hybrid corn seed technology, farmers need to become independent seed producers with the introduction of technology. Despite the difficulty level of technology, capital and resources are limited. The study aims to analyze the effectiveness of hybrid corn seed technology using the Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) approach in the demonstration plot of maize nurseries in Kendal Regency in 2018-2019. We surveyed at the end of 2019 activities to 33 farmers and 12 assisting officers. The result of this research is the level of interest suitability and technology performance of hybrid corn seeds of 82.61 percent. The average competent value of interest is 4.39, and the performance value is 3.63. Three attributes that have a high level of significance, but whose performance is not yet optimal are rouging, detasselling, and machine seed processing. In the future, evaluate the three attributes as an effort to produce quality hybrid maize seeds at the farmer level on a large scale that can be activated

The Growth Character and Results of Hybrid Corn Parents From Three-Way Crossing to Produce Hybrid Corn Seed Variety of Bima URI 20

The character of growth and production of hybrid maize seeds in Bima URI 20 used a three-way cross. The female elders of Bima 4 variety and male elders (G180 / Mr14 x Nei 9008P). The research objective was to see the relationship between growth and three-bonded mother trees in the production of Bima 20 URI hybrid maize seeds. The research was conducted in Kendal Regency with an area of 2 hectares in MK-1 2019 through the OFCOR (On-Farm Client-Oriented Research) approach. This research uses descriptive analysis and the relationship between variables. The results showed that genetic and environmental factors influenced the growth of parent seeds. Rise of male elders 96.5%, female elders 98.6%, Tall plants 208.5 cm, male elders 148.4 cm, ear height 74.1 cm, male elders 57.9 cm, age the female flowers 50.35, and male flowers 47.8. The results of the assessment test for the parameters of ear weight assessment, seed weight per ear, and 1000 dry seed weight resulted in a value of 0.8-0.9 that indicated that the characters had a strong effect on plant productivity and growth
