Agricultural Sciences & Engineering (2013 Impact Factors)
Journal Citation Reports® (JCR) adalah hasil evaluasi impact factors jurnal-jurnal internasional/regional berkualitas. Laporan tersebut dipublikasikan oleh Thomson Reuters. Sayang sekali, aksesnya terbatas lewat langganan berbayar. Berikut adalah list impact factors yang dimiliki beberapa jurnal bidang Agricultural Sciences & Engineering. Bidang ini adalah sebuah bidang sains dan rekayasa multidisiplin, terkait erat dengan biologi sebagai basic science-nya, dan mencakup irisan bidang kajian dengan ilmu eksak, ilmu alam, ekonomi, dan sains sosial yang dipakai dalam konsep-konsep sains dan rekayasa agrikultur. Impact factors tahun 2012 juga disediakan sebagai data pembanding dan sumber pertimbangan dalam memilih medium publikasi Anda. Warna merah adalah penurunan impact factor, warna hijau adalah kenaikan, sedangkan warna biru adalah impact factor baru dari jurnal terkait.
Journal Citation Reports 2014 (2013 Impact Factors)
The Journal Citation Reports menampilkan hasil evaluasi mengenai posisi sebuah publikasi ilmiah (khususnya jurnal) diantara literatur-literatur ilmiah. Laporan tersebut dihasilkan melalui evaluasi obyektif berdasar data kuantitatif dan informasi statistik dari sebuah jurnal. Hasil analisis tersebut disajikan melalui data-data yang terdiri dari format kutipan resmi, metrik dampak dan pengaruh dalam dunia kelimuan, dan jutaan kutipan dari dan ke suatu jurnal yang disarikan dari platform Web of ScienceSM, sebuah indeks kutipan besar dunia dalam bidang sains alam, sains sosial, dan humaniora. Rilis 2014 JCR berisi data yang disarikan dari sitasi-sitasi yang muncul tahun 2013 dan 2012 terhadap jurnal-jurnal terindeks Web of Science tahun 2013.

Community empowerment through Appropriate Technology: Sustaining the sustainable development
Rural communities are the major entities in developing and third-world countries. While outsiders want to develop local community, they should develop the local conditions and sustain the result. In order to get sustainability among rural communities, technology become a booster to reach it. However, the success rate of many community development projects result only compare between “before” and “after” condition of technology implementation. Furthermore, when its result reaches sustainable condition of community development, many communities cannot further maintain as well as develop their sustainable development because low level of empowerment. This paper attempts to develop conceptual framework how to reach the sustainable development in a community which is strengthened through the implementation of appropriate technology in order to reach empowerment. The framework will be constructed through literature survey and then combined with several sample cases to provide a comprehensive discussion. This paper concludes that empowerment is the next shape of sustainable development. Three stages of community development are revealed. Appropriate technology can be positioned as the bridging point in reaching empowerment of rural communities. By looking at previous efforts which treat sustainable development as the final purpose of community development projects, this paper give new lights how to reach beyond it. Empowering rural communities, sustaining their sustainable development.
