This research investigates the implementation of Random Forest algorithms combined with Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) to predict elementary school dropout rates in Indonesia, supporting the Indonesia Emas 2045 vision. A significant gap was identified in previous studies, which, despite utilizing artificial intelligence for dropout interventions, had not integrated temporal dimensions into data analysis. A temporal data-based classification model was developed using Indonesian Ministry of Education data from 2021-2023, incorporating lag features, delta calculations, and rolling statistics. Two models were implemented: one with SMOTE achieving 99% accuracy with perfect recall for high-risk regions, while the non-SMOTE model reached 100% accuracy. Temporal features were identified as crucial predictors, reflecting external fluctuations and annual changes impacting dropout decisions. This approach enables educational institutions to allocate resources more efficiently by prioritizing operational assistance for high-risk schools. The model's capacity to identify high-risk regions with 100% recall represents a strategic investment in strengthening Indonesia's human resource sustainability. To address the limitations of provincial aggregate data, expansion to include individual-level variables and model validation at district or school scales is recommended for future research.

Abstract Indonesia is a country based on law and not based on mere power. A rule of law has a commitment to uphold every human right (HAM) and guarantees that every citizen has equal status before the law. Law has the aim of achieving peace, justice and benefits for society, in order to achieve order and tranquility in order to realize the supremacy of law. To realize legal supremacy, law enforcers are needed. This research uses a type of normative legal research, which is carried out by looking at secondary data or library sources which include primary and secondary legal documents. Criminal justice mechanisms in Indonesia still involve neglect of the Procedural Code. Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP), especially in article 56. This is caused by law enforcers who think that the state is only obliged to offer and provide legal advice to accompany the defendant. If sanctions are not regulated for refusing to provide legal advice to the defendant, this will result in losses for the defendant in the investigation process starting from the police level to the judicial process, in which case it can be said that there is a legal vacuum. Keywords: Article 56 KUHAP, Legal Certainty, Legal Justice

Fungal infections, such as those caused by Curvularia, can interfere with the vegetative growth and reduce the quality of oil palm seedlings, particularly in the main nursery phase. One solution to improve resistance to pathogens and support vegetative growth is by applying the right foliar fertilizer. This study aimed to determine the effect of Kenfolan foliar fertilizer application on vegetative growth and the level of Curvularia infection in oil palm seedlings during the main nursery phase. The study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatments of Kenfolan fertilizer concentrations: 0 ml/L (P1), 1 ml/L (P2), 2 ml/L (P3), 3 ml/L (P4), and 4 ml/L (P5), each repeated three times. The parameters measured included seedling height, stem diameter, number of fronds, and the percentage of Curvularia infection. Data analysis was performed using ANOVA followed by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at a 5% significance level. The results showed that treatment P4 (3 ml/L) provided the best vegetative growth, with seedling height reaching 40.07 cm, stem diameter of 1.58 cm, and an average of 4.25 fronds. Additionally, treatments P3 (2 ml/L) and P4 (3 ml/L) successfully suppressed Curvularia infection, with no infection found in these treatments. In contrast, treatment P1 (control) showed the highest infection level of 33%, while P5 (4 ml/L) increased the infection compared to P3 and P4. Based on the results, the application of Kenfolan foliar fertilizer at a dose of 3 ml/L (P4) was the most effective in improving vegetative growth and suppressing Curvularia infection in oil palm seedlings in the main nursery phase.
