Pak Yusril's bakery business operates in several areas, namely: Medan Tembung, Medan Denai, Medan Area and East Medan. This research methodology includes primary and secondary data collection and analysis using a transportation model with a minimum cell cost method approach. The results of the method findings mean that the minimum cell cost that Mr. Yusril must pay is IDR. 163,500 with delivery of 150 baskets of bread every week.

Abstract

Oranges are one of the most consumed fruits worldwide, and Indonesia is one of the largest orange producers globally. However, the quality of oranges in Indonesia varies widely and is heavily influenced by seasonal and weather conditions. This study aims to optimize the quality of oranges using various modern technologies in an orange orchard in Sidikalang, Dairi Regency, North Sumatra. The research method used is a case study with a qualitative approach through observation and interviews. The results indicate that the use of technologies such as precision irrigation systems, soil sensors, and drones can enhance the size, color, texture, sugar content, and nutritional value of oranges. Additionally, these technologies improve production efficiency by reducing water and fertilizer use and lowering labor costs. However, the adoption of these technologies faces challenges such as high initial costs and the need for farmer training. Therefore, support from the government and financial institutions is essential to overcome these challenges and improve the quality of oranges in Indonesia.

Abstract

Linear programming is one of the most widely used operations research techniques in practice and is known for being easy to understand. The method in solving linear progamming on “Shafa Snack” is the graph method. The purpose of solving this linear progamming is to optimize the amount of production in obtaining maximum profit with data collection techniques through literature, observation and interviews. The optimal solution is obtained, namely the maximum profit of Rp1,875,000, with the number of duosus to be purchased from agents of 70kg and the number of basreng of 80kg. The results showed that duosus “chocolate filling” to achieve maximum profit of Rp1,875,000, with the number of snacks to be purchased at a price of Rp30,000 and a selling price of Rp40,000 per kg, resulted in a profit of Rp10,000 per kg. While basreng “spicy orange leaf” is purchased at Rp50,000 and sold for Rp65,000 per kg, with a profit of Rp15,000 per kg.
