The improvement of the Cukir-Jombang road section requires heavy equipment. There is an increase in the road section at the STA. 0+000-STA. 0+936 and STA. 1+912 – STA. 2+790. In order to obtain cost and time efficiency, it is necessary to analyze the productivity of heavy equipment. This study uses the field productivity method with the aim of knowing the maximum productivity of heavy equipment and asphalt costs starting from STA 0+000 to completion. The results of this study obtained the rental time of heavy equipment for 8 hours with the number of each heavy equipment Asphalt Finisher 2 units, Dump Trucks 20 units, Tandem Roller 3 units, Pneumatic Tire Roller 2 units, Asphalt Sprayer 1 unit. Meanwhile, the cost of renting heavy equipment is IDR 4,180,000.00 for Asphalt Finisher, IDR 34,200,000 for Dump Trucks, IDR 5,700,000.00 for Tandem Rollers, IDR 3,800,000 for Pneumatic Tire Rollers, and IDR 532,000 for Asphalt Sprayers.  

Pesticides are toxic substances that have a negative impact on human health problems. Anemia is one of the chronic effects of pesticide. The effect of pesticides to the farmer’s health, decreasing production or increasing destruction of red blood cells. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship of pesticide exposure with anemia in the blood of pesticide spraying workers at PT. X. The research method used is Cross Sectional at PT. X with a total sample of 61 workers was obtained by Simple Random Sampling. Information was obtained through interviews with questionnaire and examination of hemoglobin levels using a portable hemoglobin meter. Based on the results of the analysis using chi square data, it was found that pesticide exposure were associated with anemia (p = 0.011). It is expected that sprayers pay more attention to the impact of using pesticides with health.
