Peran desain grafis pada label dan kemasan produk makanan umkm

Abstract: Strategi pemasaran memegang kendali yang sangat penting dalam keberhasilan penerimaan produk di masyarakat, namun banyak UMKM yang mengabaikan hal tersebut. Label dan kemasan merupakan salah satu kunci bagi UMKM untuk lebih meningkatkan nilai jual produk. Studi menunjukkan kemasan yang baik akan meningkatkan nilai jual produk 40% - 100% dari harga awal. Tampilan grafis yang memiliki nilai estetis dan memuat informasi yang memadai menjadi representasi dari produk yang ditawarkan. Desain grafis pada label dan kemasan membentuk kontak pribadi antara produsen dan konsumen serta menciptakan efek psikologis tertentu pada individu. Elemen yang mencakupi warna, teks dan elemen visual adalah elemen yang saling melengkapi dalam membentuk persepsi konsumen terhadap suatu produk. Kemasan dapat meraih perhatian konsumen selama beberapa detik, oleh karena itu hirarki visual yang perlu diperhatikan adalah visibilitas merk, warna yang khas, dan elemen ilustrasi yang unik.

Essential Oil Extraction of Fennel Seed (Foeniculum vulgare) Using Steam Distillation

Abstract: Indonesia is a potential country in developing essential oils which is each part of the plants produce essential oils such as leaf, seed, fruit, and root. One of the potential plants is fennel. Fennel oil distillation used fennel seed from Cepogo District, Boyolali Regency. The characteristics of the seed are; the color is black and the length is 0,2 centimeters. The condition operation to exctract of the fennel seed are 1 atm and 7,5 hours. The calculation of the time started when the first fennel oil dropped into the decanter. It finished when the fennel oil was not dropped anymore. The color is bright and muddy. The last process is add 1% (m/m) Na 2 SO 4 anhidrous into fennel oil to absorp remain water in it. The distillation process produce fennel oil102,125 grams. Sample of fennel oil tested which are density test, solubility on 90% alcohol, GC-MS test, and AAS test. The result shows that fennel oil from the fennel seed is 2,0425%. The tested samples contain the brightest and the muddies sample. The density of 0,9500 and 0,949 g/cc respectively that is not fulfill to the Food Chemical Codex (FCC). Samples solubility in 90% alcohol (1:3) is fulfill to the the Food Chemical Codex (FCC). Three main components of the brightest sample are anethole (47,51%), estragole (22,41%), and α-fensone (21,92%) while the muddiest sample’s components are anethole (52,38%), estragole (21,37%),and α-fensone (15,74%). The AAS test shows that fennel oil contains 65,1473 ppm which does not fulfill the Indonesian National Standards of patchouli and clove leaf oil.

The characteristics of bioethanol fuel made of vegetable raw materials

Abstract: The aim of this research is to identify the most potential vegetable raw as the material to make a bioethanol fuel as the alternative energy for gasoline. This study used experimental method. The high-level bioethanol was obtained through the process of saccharification, fermentation and stratified distillation. ASTM standards were used as the method of testing the chemical element (D 5501, D 1744, D 1688, D 512, D 2622, D 381), and physical test (D 1613, D 240, D 1298-99, D 445, and D 93). The result of the analysis showed that from the seven bioethanols being studied there is one bioethanol from Saccharum of icinarum linn that has physical and chemical properties close to the standard of bioethanol. Meanwhile, the others only meet some of the physical and chemical properties of the standard bioethanol.

The effect of using digimon (science digital module) with scientific approach at the visualizationof students’ independence and learning results

Abstract: The aim of this research was to determine the influence of digimon based scientific approach on independence and learning autcomes of learners. This research has designed as quasi-experimental nonequivalent control group design. Subjects of this reaserch is learners at 8 E and 8 F on SMP N 1 Magelang in year 2014/2015. The results showed that there was a strong perfect linear relationship between digimon with independent learning or learning outcomes of learners. The result of independent assessment on the experiment group was 85,47 while the result of independent assessment on the control group was 69,94. Digimon based scientific approach are influential 51.93% to the independence of learners, while the rest influenced by other factors. Digimon give influence 39.69% on learning outcomes of learners, while the rest influenced by other factors.This relation is empharized through an independent test (t-test) which shows dependent bridge between digimon with independence toward concept understanding of learners in experiment group.

Analisis determinan kemiskinan di provinsi jawa tengah

Abstract: This study aims to determine factors of poverty in the province of Central Java period 2008 to 2012. Central Java province was chosen because it has the second highest poverty level among 33 provinces in Indonesia. In this study, the factors that infl uence poverty are the numbers of population live in poverty, unemployment, Gross Regional Domestic Product (GDP) and literacy rate. The method used is the panel data regression. Panel data is the data that combines the time series and cross-section data. In this study, it is found that unemployment, GDP and total population have signifi cant aff ect on poverty in the province of Central Java. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui determinan kemiskinan di provinsi Jawa Tengah periode 2008 sampai 2012. Dipilihnya Jawa Tengah karena dari 33 provinsi yang ada di Indonesia, Jawa Tengah merupakan provinsi dengan penduduk miskin terbanyak ke dua. Dalam penelitian ini faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi kemiskinan di antaranya yaitu jumlah penduduk miskin, banyaknya pengangguran, Pendapatan Domestik Regional Bruto (PDRB) dan Angka Melek Huruf dan semua variable tadi dipilih periode 2008 sampai 2012. Metode penelitian yang digunakan yaitu metode regresi data panel. Data panel merupakan data yang menggabungkan antara data time series dan data cross-section. Dalam penelitian ini pula ditemukan bahwa pengaruh pengangguran, PDRB dan jumlah atau populasi penduduk Jawa Tengah signifi kan. Artinya berpengaruh pada kemiskinan di provinsi Jawa Tengah.
