Excessive sugar consumption has become a serious public health problem. Increasing patterns of food and drink consumption in line with changes in modern lifestyles have contributed to an increase in the prevalence of non-communicable diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disorders. This study analyzes and analyzes the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially Deep Learning techniques and Neural Network algorithms, in the classification of sugar content in sweetened drinks. The Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method was used to filter relevant studies published between 2020-2024. The study results show that AI is able to provide more efficient and accurate solutions than manual methods. However, although the literature results show great potential, the application of AI in sugar content classification still requires further empirical research. This study emphasizes the importance of developing AI models tailored to the characteristics of sweetened drinks to support consumer decision making regarding healthier drink choices.

In the kernel processing process, it is important to understand the effect of temperature on the water content of the palm kernel in the kernel silo, especially at the kernel station. This study aims to analyze the effect of temperature on the water content of the palm kernel in the kernel silo at the kernel station. This study used the Randomized Block Design (RBD) method. Data were analyzed using linear regression and analysis of variance (ANOVA). By using the Randomized Block Design (RBD) method, the results of the treatment hypothesis were obtained that  (285.241) >  (2.44) which means that  was rejected and  could not be rejected, it can be concluded that the experiment of each temperature given had a significant effect on the resulting water content. In the results of the repetition hypothesis that  (1.655) <  (2.901) which means that  could not be rejected and  was rejected, it can be concluded that the experiment of each temperature given did not have a significant effect on the resulting water content.    

This study aims to analyze the influence of soil contour types and depths on soil characteristics using a Randomized Block Design (RBD) method. The research data were obtained from a secondary dataset encompassing physical and chemical soil characteristics across three contour types (Top, Slope, and Depression) and four depth levels (0-10 cm, 10-30 cm, 30-60 cm, and 60-90 cm). The analysis results indicate that soil contour types and depths do not significantly affect most soil characteristics, such as pH, nitrogen content, phosphorus, calcium, sodium, and soil conductivity. However, significant effects were observed on magnesium (Mg) and potassium (K) content. Conversely, area grouping showed significant effects on nearly all tested soil characteristics. These findings highlight the importance of considering geographical variations in soil management to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of agricultural practices. Further research is recommended to explore other factors affecting soil characteristics, such as climate and vegetation types, to support more optimal land management strategies.

the impact of multinational corporations (MNCs) in influencing the sources of international law. MNCs play a significant role in the global economy, especially in developing countries, which require foreign investment. The existence of MNCs contributes to the formation and amendment of international treaties, even though these companies are not directly recognized as subjects of international law. The sources of international law evolve over time, including international treaties, international custom, court decisions, as well as scholarly teachings. While MNCs do not have the capacity to litigate in the International Court of Justice, they can play a role in international arbitration and influence the legal policies of the countries in which they operate. The influence of MNCs on the economies of developing countries often leads to the inability of those countries to enforce national laws, due to fears of loss of investment. Therefore, while there is debate over the status of MNCs in international law, they still have a major impact in shaping and influencing the rules of international law through economic cooperation and international treaties.

The issue of plastic waste in Indonesia has reached a critical level, with an annual production of 64 million tons. To address this challenge, an educational approach that integrates practical and meaningful aspects, especially for the younger generation, is necessary.
