A framework to evaluate the land suitability for many land uses is initiated by Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) in the late 1970’s. As the advent of smart phone nowadays becoming ubiquitous technology to solve problems in most settings, such as education, agriculture, medicine, psychology, and many others. This paper is to capitalize such advantage by converting the framework into a mobile app. This solution is hoped to help land users or planners to be more effective and efficient in evaluating their land. An algorithm is employed in the form the Rule Based System (RBS) in a way to construct the framework into bunch of rules that connect each other, resulting the conclusion of suitability. The rules itself are working on some variables, namely annual rainfall, altitude, drainage, soils’ type, pH, flood risk, fertility of the soils, soil solumn depth, etc. This study focuses on three medicinal crops only, which are candlenut, cardamom and onion to be evaluated. Data of agro climatic that were determining the suitability of the crops were developed into general and specific criteria for the plants. A usability model was studied from 40 respondents using the app. It is found that the usability of the app was in “very good” classification, with dimension scores, ranging from 3.79 and 4.22.","PeriodicalId":31278,"journal":{"name":"Sriwijaya Journal of Environment","volume":"57 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76807174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is done so that the capture CO2 from air can be used as a feedstock or raw material for producing carbon free renewable fuels by applying direct air capture (DAC) process. This way of capturing is gone to be possible with using some solid & aqueous sorbents in pilot plant. The success of this capturing process is depended on the appropriate configurations of both major & minor plant operations. Heat & mass balance are required necessarily to contribute on the finding of each pilot plants data. The design of this process is modeled like this so that the captured CO2 can be delivered at 15MPa into the pilot plant & for this, the requirements of energy inputs are about 8.81GJ or 5.25GJ of natural gas & 0 KWHr or 336KWHr of electricity respectively. Then all the results finding from the pilot contactor, reactor, calciner are optimized to reduce the processing cost of the capturing process. It is observed after the ending of the process that the amount of operating cost is ranged between 50$ to 100$ to capture per ton of CO2 from surrounding air where the total levelized cost of the whole process ranges between 94$ to 232$/t-CO2.

Technological innovation in agriculture gave to the rising number of disguised unemployment in tidal agriculture sector. But, with technological innovation and income diversification, disguised unemployment will be decreased and farmers' income will be increased, yet, the productivity will be low. In other words, to cope with the issues of disguised unemployment, technological innovation in the agricultural sector should be accompanied with the income diversification.
