Abstract

Sugarcane is a key plantation crop and the primary source of sugar in Indonesia. However, over the past decade, rising demand has not been matched by domestic production, which has continued to decline. Improving productivity can be achieved through the use of high-quality seed. However, farmers face limited access as supply from sugar mill networks is scarce. Interest in self-producing seed remains low due to limited awareness of its comparable economic benefits to cane cultivation for milling. This study aims to assess the efficiency of seed cane production in Balung District, Jember Regency, and to identify sustainable strategies for developing an independent sugarcane seed production system at the farmer level. The results are expected to provide recommendations for farmers on improving the availability and quality of self-produced seed, serving as a reference for decision-making in developing a more efficient and sustainable sugarcane seed propagation system. The research was conducted from January to March 2025 in Balung Sub-district, Jember Regency, involving a single farmer as the primary respondent, who manages a seed production area of 1.125 hectares. Observed variables included total cost, revenue, profit, and financial efficiency parameters, such as the R/C ratio, B/C ratio, Break-Even Point (BEP), and sensitivity analysis. Data were analyzed using farm business and financial efficiency analysis methods. The results showed that bud-set sugarcane seed production is feasible and profitable, with a total cost of IDR 36,740,000.00/ha, a projected revenue of IDR 50,400,000.00/ha, and a profit of IDR 13,660,000.00 per hectare, assuming a 1:7 multiplication ratio. The R/C ratio was 1.38, and the return on investment (ROI) reached 138%. BEP and sensitivity analyses also indicated that the business remains efficient even under price fluctuations or increased production costs. It is recommended that local stakeholders support farmer training and seed certification to encourage wider adoption of independent seed production.

Abstract

A major constraint in edamame (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) cultivation is the rapid deterioration of seed viability, which limits crop productivity. Seed priming has been widely applied to improve the physiological quality of seeds by activating early metabolic processes prior to germination. This study aimed to determine the most effective seed priming treatment using Trichoderma harzianum and rice husk ash as matriconditioning media to stimulate edamame seed germination and vigor. The research was conducted from July to September 2025 at the Seed Technology Laboratory, Jember State Polytechnic, using a completely randomized design (CRD) with seven treatments: control (M1), matriconditioning with rice husk ash plus water for 6 hours (M2), matriconditioning with rice husk ash plus Trichoderma sp. isolate for 6 hours (M3), matriconditioning with rice husk ash plus Trichoderma sp. isolate for 12 hours (M4), matriconditioning with rice husk ash plus Trichoderma sp. isolate for 18 hours (M5), and matriconditioning with rice husk ash plus Trichoderma sp. isolate for 24 hours (M6). Observed parameters included germination percentage (GP), maximum germination potential (MGP), vigor index (VI), seedling uniformity, seedling biomass, and shoot and root length. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at a 5% significance level. The results suggested that T. harzianum seed treatments have not yet shown a significant effect on enhancing edamame seed viability, as indicated by the parameters of Germination Percentage, Maximum Germination Potential, and Vigor Index. These findings imply that further optimization of priming duration and inoculum concentration may be necessary to achieve more consistent improvements in germination performance and seed vigor.

Abstract

Genetic purity in hybrid maize is essential to ensure the stable combination of parental genetic materials, which underpins heterosis and on-field hybrid performance. Conventional field-based tests for assessing hybrid purity are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and less efficient compared to molecular marker-based approaches. Alternatively, DNA-based markers such as simple sequence repeats (SSRs) provide a feasible alternative. DNA-based markers assay requires the DNA extraction method that produces sufficient amount and quality of DNA. Therefore, this study compared three extraction methods—SDS-based, CTAB-based, and a commercial DNA extraction kit—using leaf tissue from maize seedlings as the DNA source. The extracted DNA samples were assessed for yield, quality, and suitability for SSR-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays. Results demonstrated that all three methods successfully produced DNA of adequate quality and quantity for SSR-PCR analysis. These findings confirm the applicability of multiple extraction techniques for molecular based hybrid purity testing. The study contributes practical guidance for optimizing DNA extraction in maize, supporting the broader adoption of molecular markers in hybrid breeding programs.
