One of the superior agrotechnopreneurship products in the Jember District is cow's milk kefir. Agrotechnopreneurship development faces risks as a business activity because of unknowns that may arise. This research aims to manage risk in the growth of cow's milk kefir agrotechnopreneurship so that it can guide those in the Jember District in building their businesses. The methods used for risk management in this study include interview and observation for risk identification, Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA) for risk assessment, fishbone diagram for risk evaluation, and the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) for risk mitigation. The research results show 12 potential risks, some very serious, associated with the agrotechnopreneurship development of cow's milk kefir in the Jember District. Based on the criticality analysis, four main risks have been identified in the development of cow's milk kefir agrotechnopreneurship, including the limited capacity of human resources to apply new technology, the constrained product sales area, the low sales value, and the variable availability of fresh milk. Human factors, methods, facilities, and the environment are all considered when evaluating the root causes of risk. This research produces follow-up recommendations that can be used as a strategy reference in developing the cow's milk kefir industry in Jember District. Risk mitigation results showed several strategies that can be applied: attending training on cow's milk production technology, working with product delivery service providers, assuring product quality with product certification, and establishing partnerships with dairy farmers.

Competition between industries is getting tighter, so it becomes a challenge to carry out production activities. The company realizes that to be able to compete with competitors, it must produce quality products, cheaply, quickly, and by the wishes and needs of consumers. Kahyangan Coffee Agroindustry is a diversified business from PDP (District Plantation Company) Kahyangan whose main product is coffee. PDP Kahyangan conducts coffee agro-industry activities due to the unstable selling price of ose (ground) coffee. Indications of problems in the industry are low market share and relatively poor performance. The company must have the right strategy in facing competition by optimizing supply chain management. This study uses the SCOR (Supply Chain Operation Reference). The SCOR model can map supply chain activities through 5 core processes of plan, source, make, deliver, and return with dimensions of reliability, responsiveness, flexibility, cost, and assets that have indicators so that they can be used as benchmarks in measuring supply chain management performance. Then identify Key Performance Indicators (KPI) to adjust company conditions and normalize Snorm de Boer to equalize the KPI scale. Furthermore, weighting is carried out to determine the priority of each performance indicator using AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process). The results showed that in the process of producing ground coffee in the Kahyangan coffee agroindustry, 26 KPIs were produced. The value of supply chain performance in this industry is 79.16 which indicates that the performance achievement is categorized as good (good) but needs to be improved on performance indicators that have low scores. 4 KPIs have the lowest values and must be prioritized for improvement, namely the suitability of the production plan with demand (53.85), quality of raw materials (58.33), efficiency of use of raw materials and machinery in the production process (54.55), and the average marketing staff who received marketing training (50).

Tomatoes are one of the agricultural products that have good and promising prospects. This price will drop significantly during tomato harvest. This can be minimized by processing tomatoes into semi-finished products as puree. This research aims to analyze the physicochemical characteristics of tomato puree with variations in pre-processing and type of stabilizer, determine the selected treatment based on the physicochemical characteristics of the tomato puree and calculate the mass balance and yield to determine the best treatment. Design used is RAL with dual factors, namely pre-processing variations, and stabilizer type. Each treatment will be repeated 4 times and 3 repetitions of testing. Results showed that pre-processing had a significant effect on physicochemical characteristics of tomato puree. However, the stabilizer had no significant effect on the physicochemical characteristics of tomato puree. Selected treatment using the Exponential Comparison Method was A1B2 (non-blanching gum arab) treatment with physicochemical characteristics of color *L (72.7), *a value (8.8), *b value (4.5), pH (4.7), TPT (10.2°Brix), TAT (0.71%), and Vitamin C (3.83mg/100g). Mass balance of the selected treatment of tomato puree had the highest product loss in the evaporation process, namely 57.5% and a yield value of 31% was obtained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Citrus based food industry is one of the industries that is growing very rapidly throughout the world, including in Indonesia. To develop a significant citrus-based food industry, the role of the product to be processed is not enough based solely on the quality of the ingredients alone, but also the quantity and continuity of the production of the food commodity must be considered so that the sustainability of the citrus-based food industry continues as it should. The Research Objectives are: as a reference in the implementation of studies on the development of the orange-based food industry, obtain adequate information about whether or not the orange-based food industry is suitable for development in an area. The methodology used in this study to obtain data is through a survey of the location of citrus products, studies/studies on the development of the orange-based food industry, and discussion of results. Citrus industrial trees can be processed into 14 products, namely: pure, concentrate, vinegar, jelly, jam, lemonade oil, pectin, dry skin for herbal medicine plants, dietary fiber, healthy fruits, organic fertilizers, animal food, drip sugar, and oil.
