Abstrak. Pembangunan pertanian pada masa mendatang akan dihadapkan pada berbagai permasalahan yang semakin rumit maka diperlukan pengkajian teknologi pertanian yang harus diarahkan untuk mengatasi berbagai permasalahan. Inovasi asap cair di gampong Naga Umbang dianggap dapat menjawab masalah yang melanda kebiasaan masyarakat dalam menggunakan pestisida kimia namun akibat adanya perbedaan antara sikap terhadap inovasi dengan keputusan yang telah dibuat maka terjadilah dissonansi (ketidakselarasan) inovasi. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui dan menjelaskan karakteristik unit pengambilan keputusan (faktor internal dan faktor eksternal) serta karakteristik inovasi dapat mempengaruhi keputusan masyarakat dalam menunda penerapan teknologi asap cair di Gampong Naga Umbang Kecamatan Lhoknga. Metode yang digunakan adalah studi kasus pendekatan kualitatif, sedangkan pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan cara wawancara mendalam, observasi, dokumentasi serta data sekunder. Metode analisis menggunakan model interaktif dan triangulasi sebagai uji keabsahan data. Hasil penelitian adalah masyarakat Naga Umbang tidak siap dengan kehadiran inovasi asap cair. Adanya dua aspek yang ditelaah yaitu karakteristik unit pengambilan keputusan dan persepsi  karakteristik inovasi. Pada kedua aspek menunjukkan kehadiran asap cair di Naga Umbang  mengalami beberapa kendala diantaranya terbatasnya waktu warga untuk mengelola asap cair disebabkan adanya kesibukan sehari-hari. Masyarakat atau petani sebagai sasaran utama dalam proses adopsi inovasi mengalami kesulitan dalam pemikiran maupun praktik kesehariannya. Dari segi penerapan,  sulitnya mengubah tradisi masyarakat yang selama ini terbiasa menggunakan pestisida kimia yang dapat membahayakan kesehatan jika hasil panen dikonsumsi secara terus menerus. Namun, kedua responden mengatakan hal sebaliknya yaitu kalau saja mereka mendapatkan penyuluhan secara bertahap mengenai asap cair, maka adanya kemungkinan inovasi dapat dijalankan.Factors That Influence The Decision of The Society In Innovation Adoption of Liquid Smoke In Aceh Besar DistrictAbstract.

Objective: The Public Administration faces the influence of internal and external factors that bring uncertainty regarding the achievement of its objectives. These uncertainties can be called organizational risks, which can be analyzed by the Implementation and its processes. However, these phases have been approached as synonymous, making it difficult to measure the results desired by Risk Management. Thus, this article aims to highlight the difference in implementation and implementation in risk management, as well as to elucidate the challenges faced by the Federal Institute of Santa Catarina in the Risk Management process.Methodology/Approach: This research is classified as a qualitative case study, with information analysis through interviews with the organization's employees and participant observation over three years.Originality/Relevance: The study provides empirical evidence on the distinction between the implementation and implementation stages, as well as their challenges, to improve the studies and execution of Risk Management. Main results: The implementation and its phases were identified, with challenges occurring in both, especially regarding the difficulty of public servants in understanding risk management and its context, the preparation of risk maps, the assignment of roles outside the committee, and the creation of indicators concise.Theoretical-methodological contributions: Institutions need to go beyond standardization and regulation, completing all the steps established in the implementation of Risk Management, subsequently introducing implementation, and institutionalizing their practices in the management processes.

Many ethnobotanical studies have shown differences in the knowledge and practices held by men and women. Using ethnographic fieldwork, a survey, and secondary data from three different areas in Spain, this study shows a geographical pattern in women’s and men’s relations with wild edible plants. In the case studies from Southern Spain, Doñana, and Sierra Morena Extremeña, women gather less wild edible plants than men, while in the Central Spain case study, Sierra Norte de Madrid, the difference is less marked. We explain this difference through the construction and distribution of agrarian spaces, particularly with regards to land tenure type and urban centers size. In the southern cases, large agrarian properties are more prevalent than in Sierra Norte de Madrid, where common lands and small and medium properties predominate. Additionally, in Doñana, big urban agro-towns dominate, whereas in Sierra Norte de Madrid and Sierra Morena Extremeña little towns are the norm. Overall, our study suggests that gendered differences in the use of natural resources are better understood if contextualized in a large socioecological context.

The technological revolution 4.0 brings great opportunities, but also cybercrimes to economic sectors, especially to banks. Using secondary data and survey results of 305 bank clients, the main findings of this paper are: (i) there are several types of cybercrimes in the banking sector; (ii) Vietnam is one of the top countries worldwide having hackers and being attacked by hackers, especially the banking sector. Three most common attacks are skimming, hacking and phishing. Number of cybercrime attacks in Vietnam are increasing rapidly over years; (iii) Vietnamese customers are very vulnerable to cybercrime in banking, as more than 58% seem to hear about cybercrimes, and how banks provide services to let them know about their transactions. However, more than 50% do not have any deep knowledge or any measures for preventing cybercrime; (iii) Customers believe in banks, but do not think that banks can deal with cybercrime issues well. They still feel traditional transactions are more secure than e-transactions; (iv) the reasons for high cybercrimes come from commercial banks (low management and human capacity), supporting environment (inadequate), legal framework (not yet strong and strict enough on cybercrimes), and clients (low level of financial literacy). Therefore, several solutions should be carried out, from all stakeholders, for improving the cybersecurity in Vietnamese banks.

Abstract Every port in Indonesia must have a Port Master Plan that contains an integrated port development plan. This study discusses one important aspect in the preparation of the Port Master Plan, namely the projected movement of goods and passengers, which can be used as a reference in determining the need for facilities at each stage of port development. The case study was conducted at a port located in a district in Maluku Province and aims to evaluate the analysis of projected demand for goods and passengers occurring at the port. The projection method used is time series and econometric projection. The projection results are then compared with the existing data in 2018. The results of this study show that the econometric projection gives adequate results in predicting loading and unloading activities as well as the number of passenger arrival and departure in 2018. This is indicated by the difference in the percentage of projection results towards the existing data, which is smaller than 10%. Whereas for loading and unloading activities, time series projections with logarithmic trends give better results than econometric projections. Keywords: port, port master plan, port development, unloading activities  Abstrak Setiap pelabuhan di Indonesia harus memiliki sebuah Rencana Induk Pelabuhan yang memuat rencana pengem-bangan pelabuhan secara terpadu. Studi ini membahas salah satu aspek penting dalam penyusunan Rencana Induk Pelabuhan, yaitu proyeksi pergerakan barang dan penumpang, yang dapat dipakai sebagai acuan dalam penentuan kebutuhan fasilitas di setiap tahap pengembangan pelabuhan. Studi kasus dilakukan pada sebuah pelabuhan yang terletak di sebuah kabupaten di Provinsi Maluku dan bertujuan untuk melakukan evaluasi ter-hadap analisis proyeksi demand barang dan penumpang yang terjadi di pelabuhan tersebut. Metode proyeksi yang dipakai adalah proyeksi deret waktu dan ekonometrik. Hasil proyeksi selanjutnya dibandingkan dengan data eksisting tahun 2018. Hasil studi ini menunjukkan bahwa proyeksi ekonometrik memberikan hasil yang cukup baik dalam memprediksi aktivitas bongkar barang serta jumlah penumpang naik dan turun di tahun 2018. Hal ini diindikasikan dengan selisih persentase hasil proyeksi terhadap data eksisting yang lebih kecil dari 10%. Sedangkan untuk aktivitas muat barang, proyeksi deret waktu dengan tren logaritmik memberikan hasil yang lebih baik daripada proyeksi ekonometrik. Kata-kata kunci: pelabuhan, rencana induk pelabuhan, pengembangan pelauhan, aktivitas bongkar barang
