The INOVASI program is an education partnership that works to improve the quality of learning outcomes in literacy and numeracy in basic education. This is the second provincial partnership for INOVASI in Indonesia. INOVASI signed its first MoU with West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) province in June 2016. Program implementation will take place in all four districts of Sumba, NTT, including Southwest Sumba, West Sumba, Central Sumba, and East Sumba. The signing of the MoU took place in Fernandez Hall, NTT Governor’s Office, between the NTT Governor Frans Lebu Raya, and the Head of the Research and Development Agency (Balitbang) Dr. Totok Suprayitno. The signing was witnessed by Ms. Michelle Lowe, Counsellor for Human Development from the Australian Embassy in Jakarta. According to NTT Governor Frans Lebu Raya, the launch of the INOVASI program in NTT demonstrates the government’s determination and support, working with program partners, to improve the quality of education in Sumba – especially in basic education. “We welcome the INOVASI program in NTT, as it will seek to improve student learning outcomes, especially in the fields of literacy and numeracy”. This education partnership is further strengthened by the signing of an MoU between the Governor of NTT with each Regent in the four districts of Sumba, namely Regent of Southwest Sumba Markus Dairo Talu, Regent of West Sumba District Agustinus Niga Dapawole, Regent of Central Sumba Regency Umbu Sappi Pateduk, and Regent of East Sumba Regency Gidion Mbilijora. Said the Head of Indonesia’s Research and Development Agency, Dr. Totok Suprayitno, “we are very proud of the support and cooperation provided by the provincial government in NTT, which is very committed to making changes in education. The real impact of the INOVASI program will be seen in the classroom, and in learning. We will strengthen and support teachers and their teaching practices in the classroom. Emphasis has now moved from the number of students attending class, to how well they are learning and whether they can be part of a productive society in the future”. The INOVASI program, in line with the Indonesian government’s National Literacy Movement, will work with teachers, parents, principals, district governments and other key education stakeholders to explore and understand ways to improve student learning outcomes, particularly with regards to literacy and numeracy skills. INOVASI will work to understand what does and doesn’t work to improve education quality at the classroom level. “The INOVASI program is an important partnership between the Australian and Indonesian governments. We have been working together for more than 10 years to strengthen the education system in Indonesia. We believe that the quality of education is very important for Indonesia, and can contribute directly to human and community development, as well as a healthy and productive workforce”, said Michelle Lowe, Counsellor for Human Development from the Australian Embassy in Jakarta.

  • The Control of Land Use and Utilization in Kupang Regency Through the Law Formationω
    68 THE CONTROL OF LAND USE AND UTILIZATION IN KUPANG REGENCY THROUGH THE LAW FORMATIONΩ Wini Dina Retriani Lani Postgraduate Program Universitas Nusa Cendana E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Demand for land in Kupang Regency keeps increasing while the land availability is limited and the changes in the utilization continues. If it is not controlled, there will be a gap between econo-mic orientation and the environmental sustainability. However, the control does not work due to the absence of legal instruments such as Regional Regulation which regulates this issue. To answer these legal issues, the researchers applied empirical juridical research methods while the analysis method is prescriptive juridical. The research shows that the control of land use and utilization in Kupang Regency is not effectively implemented because Regional Regulation of Detailed Spatial Plan of Regency and Spatial Plan of Strategic Area, the utilization license and the change of land use li- cense have not been formulated. Moreover, an integrated license process is not effectively applied which caused several constructions are built prior to the license granted, unclear boundary between forest and non-forest area, incomplete data base of agriculture, farm, and absentee land. Keywords: control, land use, land utilization Abstrak Kebutuhan akan tanah di Kabupaten Kupang semakin meningkat namun ketersediaannya terba-tas serta perubahan penggunaan dan pemanfaatan tanah terus berlangsung.

  • Ensuring Food Security and Reducing Poverty Through Gender on Development: Indonesian Case1
    Ensuring Food Security and Reducing Poverty through Gender on Development: Indonesian Case1 Angelina Ika Rahutami Faculty of Economics and Business Soegijapranata Catholic University, Indonesia [email protected] Abstract Poverty, food security and gender inequality have a strong causality relationship and have been a focus of socio-economic development in the world. The World Food Program stated that gender inequality is a major cause and effect of hunger and poverty, but the fact also shows that women play a pivotal role in food security, those are food production, distribution, keeper the indigenous knowledge of biodiversity and utilization. This concern could be seen on the 3 goals of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that represent a continuity of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The Indonesian data show that approximately 60 percent of Indonesian poverty is rural poverty. Most of the poor in rural is farmers who have a big problem with low farmer’s exchange rate. This study aimed to describe the conditions of poverty and food security in Indonesia and conduct policy analysis in terms of gender and development. This study used secondary and primary data. The result of study showed that the low farmer’s exchange rate cause farmers is more difficult to escape from the poverty trap. In addition, because women hold various roles in food security but also have various limitations in accessing food, women tend to have a bigger burden than men. The case study in Central Sumba showed that the women empowerment to deal with food security and poverty should be accompanied by cultural approach. The cultural approach is important because this research found that the indigenous culture affected the household’s decision making.

Waibakul City, Central Sumba Regency, East Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia is affected by floods every year that comes from overflow of drainage channels. The area of Waibakul is 76, 44 km^2 and dominated by agricultural land. The drainage system is incorporated into the irrigation system, thus forming a complex network of channels. The topography of the area is very flat, with slope (0 to 3) % reaching 78.56% and forming natural basins that are used as rainwater catchment reservoirs. The results of evaluation show that the majority of channel capacity is not roportional to the burden that must be discharged. The reservoir performance is not maximal because the water discharge system only relies on natural water absorption into the soil, so if there is a successive rain then the reservoir is full thus the reservoir control capacity becomes very small.

Putra 2, Suputa 2 1 Department of Agrotechnology, Faculty of Agriculture, Timor University, INDONESIA 2 Department of Crop Protection, Faculty of Agriculture, Gadjah Mada University, INDONESIA *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Migration locust (Locusta migratoria, L.) or Kembara (Indonesian) grasshopper is one of the herbivorous insects that lay eggs on the ground. The spawning process requires the right place, humidity, and type of soil. Moist soil and suitable soil texture can accelerate the hatching of grasshoppers into nymphs. This study aims to analyze the effect of texture and soil moisture level on hatching eggs of migratory locust (Locusta migratoria, L.). This research was carried out in a semi- field laboratory in Kefamenanu, North Central Timor Regency. The study was conducted for three months, from October to December 2018. The research method used completely randomized designs and data analysis using the Tukey's HSD (honestly significant difference) 5% test. The results showed the texture of sandy clay loam with a humidity level of 60% (24.67 days) and 80% (22.33 days) can shorten the time of hatching eggs, and at 40% humidity on the texture of the clay lasts longer for 32.33 days.
