Determinants of Adopting Environmentally Friendly Technology: a Case of Soybean Farming in East Java Determinan Mengadopsi Teknologi Ramah Lingkungan: Sebuah Kasus USAhatani Kedelai Di Jawa Timur

Teknologi ramah lingkungan merupakan pilihan yang tepat untuk menciptakan pertanian yang berkelanjutan. Namun, petani tidak selalu menerima teknologi tersebut karena petani bersifat lembam. Oleh karena itu, sangatlah penting untuk mengetahui faktor yang memengaruhi adopsi teknologi tersebut. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap adopsi teknologi ramah lingkungan pada USAhatani kedelai. Kajian ini menggunakan metode estimasi logit, Tobit dan probit bertingkat untuk mengukur kemungkinan petani mengadopsi komponen teknologi ramah lingkungan. Data dikumpulkan dari tiga kabupaten di Jawa Timur tempat kedelai dibudidayakan secara intensif. Hasil kajian ini menunjukkan faktor sosial ekonomi mempunyai pengaruh yang beragam terhadap adopsi komponen teknologi. Secara keseluruhan, kelompok tani, luas USAhatani, kepemilikan lahan, dan pelatihan memungkinkan petani untuk mengadopsi teknologi secara keseluruhan. Akan tetapi, yang taat-azas dengan penggunaan pestisida adalah pelatihan, karena petani yang mengikuti pelatihan menggunakan pestisidalebih sedikit

BUILDING EMPLOYEE LOYALTY IN THE DIGITAL ERA AND PANDEMIC (STUDY AT THE TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION UNIT OF THE SOUTH SULAWESI PROVINCE FOOD CROPS AND HORTICULTURE PROTECTION AGENCY)

Organizational phenomena that are still being faced are coordination and consolidation, different qualifications of human resources, large work areas, and the lack of facilities (technology) and assistance facilities for the community. The purpose of this study was conducted to develop variables that influence Loyalty in the Digital Age and the COVID-19 Pandemic, in the Observers of Plant Pest Organisms (POPT) in South Sulawesi Province. The research method uses the Mix Method to determine the relationships and influences between variables, with 200 respondents. Selection of the sample using judgment sampling and data collection using a questionnaire. Data is processed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using LISREL and SPSS. The results showed that the Human Resource Management variable had the most influence on building loyalty. Overall the variables of Human Resource Management Practices, Motivation, Communication, have a positive and significant effect on Job Satisfaction, but the variable that has the greatest influence on job satisfaction is the communication variable. Meanwhile, the stress variable has a negative effect on job satisfactio

The Effect of Thermal Shock on Bending Strength of Zirconia Ceramics

This research aims to investigate the effect of thermal shock on bending strength of zirconia stabilized with 3% mol Yttria known as 3Y-TZP (Tetragonal Zirconia Polycrystal stabilized with 3 %mol Yttria). The zirconia powder with mean particle size of 0.2 - 2 µm was obtained from Good fellow UK. Zirconia powder was uniaxially pressed with a pressure of 100 MPa to produce cylindrical green body with a diameter of l5 mm and thickness of 8 mm and green body specimens of rectangular cross-section bar (8x5x50 mm3). The cylindrical green body was pressureless sintered at various temperature of 1250, 1300, 1350, 1400 and 1450 oC for 1 hour. The density of each sintered specimens was measured using Archimedes method. It was found that 1450oC was the best sintering temperature. The rectangular green bodies were then pressureless sintered in a furnace at temperatures 1450 oC for 1 hour with a heating rate of 5oC/min. The sintered samples were polished. Group of the sintered samples were then heated up with a heating rate of 5 oC /minute to various temperature of 25, 225, 275, 325 and 425 oC with a holding time of 1 hour. They were then thermal shocked by rapid cooling (quenching) to a water media with a temperature of 25 oC. The strength of samples was evaluated using four point bending test. The results shows that the thermal shock resistance of the specimen is 200 oC and 250 oC where the bending strength decreases drastically
