Rainfall Prediction in East Java Using Spatial Extreme Value Theory

Extreme rainfall is a phenomenon that occurs because of the high intensity of rainfall which causes many negative impacts. For example, is flooding that can ruin crops for farmers. To minimize this hazard, rainfall prediction is carried out. One methods that can be used is spatial extreme value theory using max stable approach and copula approach. From it, we will get the return level (predictive value) rainfall by paying attention to the location elements in it. This study discusses the max-stable approach using the Smith model and the copula approach using the Copula Gaussian model. Parameter estimation used is Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method. Because it takes into spatial elements, the trend surface model is also used. At the end of the study, Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) is used to compare and select the best model that can be used in predicting rainfall. Spatial extreme value theory will be applied to rainfall data in East Java which consists of nine rainfall observation stations. The results of spatial parameter estimation show that the highest of rainfall intensity value will occur around rainfall observation station namely Sawahan which is located in Nganjuk district in a period of two years. From AIC, it can be said that the model using copula Gaussian is the best model compare with max-stable approach as it provides the smallest AIC values.

Senggowar Village is a part of Gondang sub-district, Nganjuk district, a village that wishes to become a village with a “catfish” icon. Economic problems cause many parents to work outside the home, so that their children are less attention and get along with the environment that is not true. Some people work in agriculture as agricultural laborers, especially primary products with inadequate income. Village officials and community leaders look for solutions in various opportunities by introducing villages with the icon "Lele Village". Because Catfish is now an animal necessity at a price that is quite affordable by the wider community. The Village Government formed 2 Farmer Groups namely: Mina Tirta 1 and Mina Tirta 2. The activities of these farmer groups are still limited to exhibition activities held by the Nganjuk District Government related to village potential. Sustainability activities have not been carried out optimally, due to the limited knowledge and technology of the community about catfish cultivation and diversification of food made from raw catfish. For this reason, a program of activities for the "Lele Village" was considered.
 The solution offered by making artificial ponds with tarpaulins that can be done in a narrow yard. Post-harvest handling of processed products from catfish include: Abon Catfish, Catfish Meatballs, Catfish Chips, Catfish Flour, Catfish Dumplings. Marketing with an online model, accounting books, and empowerment of farmer group cooperatives.

ANALISIS EFISIENSI TEKNIS, EFISIENSI EKONOMIS DAN DAYA SAING PADA USAHATANI BAWANG MERAH DI KABUPATEN NGANJUK-JAWA TIMUR: SUATU PENDEKATAN EKONOMETRIK DAN PAM

Shallot is an important vegetable commodity for most Indonesian people. Shallots production is not yet able to supply the domestic consumption, and some is still met through imports. The challenge to produce shallots will be more complex, such as: the desire of consumers to high-quality products and environmentally friendly, as well as competition with similar products in the era of free trade. Based on these reasons, research has been done and the purpose of this study was to analyze the factors affecting shallots production, measuring the level of technical efficiency and economical efficiency. The study was conducted in Nganjuk District by taking 179 respondents from four sub districts. Interviews were conducted in October and November 2013, planting shallots April unti August 2013. Methods of analysis using the stochastic frontier production function to look at the effect of inputs on shallots production, followed by the analysis of technical efficiency (TE), allocative efficiency (AE) and economical efficiency (EE), and the final analysis of competitiveness using the Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM). The independent variable inputs consist of land (X1), seeds (X2), NPK fertilizer (X3), organic fertilizer (X4), labor (X5) and pesticides (X6). The analysis showed all independent variables significantly affected shallots production, where the value of the elasticity of the independent variable X2 is the highest, amounting to 0.2822. The analysis also obtained an average value of TE is equal to 0.808 means farmers are efficient, although there are farmers who are still not efficient. Although TE has been achieved, but is economically inefficient, because the average value of EE only 0.509. From PAM results it can be seen that farming shallots in this study has a competitive advantage but do not yet have a comparative advantage.

Price Behavior and Market Integration of Shallot in Java Indonesia

In Indonesia, shallot is a main seasonal vegetable crop that is always needed by society. This condition leads to price fluctuation in producers and consumers level. The purpose of the paper is to examine price behavior, market integration, and leading market of shallot in Indonesia. This study uses producers and consumers monthly prices data at two producer’s markets (Cirebon, Brebes and Nganjuk district in java) and consumer’s market in Kramatjati Central Market, Jakarta ( KCMJ) during 2009-2013. Shallot price behavior is analyzed by Coefficient of Variation (CV). Market integration is analyzed by Engle and Granger model of co-integration. Granger causality test is used to identify the leading market. Result from the study show that monthly price behavior of shallot during 2009-2013 in producers and consumers market area have the same pattern. Shallot price in producers market is relatively more volatile than that of consumers market. Shallot price in Brebes relatively more volatile than that of in Cirebon and Nganjuk. As much as 50% shallot market integration in Indonesia is strong. In relationship of Nganjuk-KCMJ more integrated than of Brebes-KCMJ.In relationship of Cirebon-KCMJ also integrated despite weak. It takes six months to make adjustment if there is imbalance in the short-term relationship between Nganjuk-KCMJ and seven months for Brebes-KCMJ. The producer’s markets in Cirebon, Brebes and Nganjuk influence consumer’s market in KCMJ in determination shallot price. Two-way relationship accur between Cirebon-KCMJ, Brebes-KCMJ and Nganjuk-KCMJ in determination of shallot price, but in the difference lag. If price fluctuation occurred in fact, the government might not carry out intervention, because market mechanism was able to customized it.

GIS analysis of conjunctive water resource use in Nganjuk district, east Java, Indonesia

Water shortages during the dry season threaten sustainable agricultural production in Nganjuk District, East Java, Indonesia. To mitigate this problem, farmers adopted conjunctive use of surface water and groundwater, but the sustainability of this practice has not been investigated. This study temporally and spatially assessed water allocation in Nganjuk District when conjunctive irrigation was used. In particular, the land cover, water balance, and irrigation well density (IWD) were analyzed using time series GIS and remote sensing data to obtain their temporal and spatial distributions. First, the land cover was analyzed to determine cropping intensity, and the water balance was analyzed temporally and spatially. IWD was introduced to facilitate the water balance analysis. Second, the land cover, water balance, and IWD results were overlaid. Third, the effectiveness of the IWD method, the magnitude of water shortages, and the sustainability of groundwater resources were considered. Temporal and spatial water shortages in irrigation blocks were observed during the dry season. The change of storage showed a surplus during the wet and early dry seasons and a shortage during the late dry season. The annual water balances indicated that the southern part had a surplus, and the northern part experienced water shortages, especially downstream of the Widas River. Conjunctive use during the late dry season was predominant and concentrated in the southern part (83% of southern blocks). IWD was appropriate for examining groundwater use trends and was effective for expressing average withdrawal data (R 2 = 0.87).

Corm variables consist of corm diameter, corm weight, and corm specific gravity. Oxalate variables consist of total oxalate, soluble oxalate, insoluble oxalate, and density of calcium oxalate crystal.Oxalate contents were measured based on AOAC method. All of variables were collected from first to fourth growth period of porang. Data were analyzed by smartPLS (Partial Least Square) software. The results showed that there were significantly direct effect between altitude and temperature, altitude and CEC of soil, temperature and CEC of soil, altitude and percentage of coverage, temperature and percentage of coverage, CEC of soil and percentage of coverage, CEC of soil and petiole diameter, petiole diameter and corm diameter, and petiole diameter and corm oxalate content. There were no significantly direct effect among altitude, temperature, percentage of coverage and petiole diameter; and among corm total oxalate, soluble oxalate, insoluble oxalate, and density of calcium oxalate crystal and corm diameter. The value of Goodness of Fit of the developing model was R²=0.99.Key words: corm, climate, model, oxalate, smartPLS, porang, soil.
