Abstract

Rubber trees are one of the main tree crops in Southeast Asia that provides latex as the primary source of tire production. However, commercial clones of rubber trees are attacked by pests such as root and foliage diseases and are exposed to abiotic stresses such as drought, which make the development of resistant rubber clones to biotic and abiotic stresses crucial. This mini review highlights the breeding program to develop resistant rubber tree crops through crossing and biotechnology, including in vitro culture and genetic transformation.

Abstract

This study evaluates the effectiveness of agricultural extension activities aimed at enhancing the knowledge of farmers of composting and good agricultural practices for avocados in Mulyaharja village, Bogor, West Java Province, conducted in October 2024. A total of 10 participants completed pre- and post-tests designed to measure their understanding of avocado cultivation and composting practices. Results showed a significant increase in knowledge regarding avocado cultivation, with scores rising from 64% to 79% post-intervention (P=0.049). However, the improvement in composting knowledge was minimal, increasing from 57% to 63%, which was not statistically significant (P=0.29). These findings indicate that targeted extension activities can effectively improve knowledge related to avocado farming while suggesting a need for more engaging methods to enhance composting knowledge. This research highlights the critical role of tailored extension services in promoting sustainable agricultural practices and enhancing the capabilities of farmers in the region.

Abstract

Horticultural extension services in Bogor are instrumental in promoting agricultural development by enhancing the productivity and sustainability of local horticultural practices. This study emphasizes the empowerment of women farmer groups, known as Kelompok Wanita Tani (KWT), to improve horticultural production through targeted initiatives such as providing essential production facilities and enhancing the skills of farmers and extension officers. Data collection was conducted from July to September 2024, using questionnaires and surveys to assess the knowledge of KWT members before and after extension activities. The results indicated a significant increase in knowledge related to horticultural crop cultivation, with pre-test scores rising from 69% to 87% post-training, demonstrating a 17% improvement (P0.01). This improvement in knowledge and practices is a promising sign for the future of horticultural development. Correlation analysis revealed interesting relationships among agricultural knowledge, educational background, age, and agricultural experience. This research highlights the crucial role of extension services in disseminating knowledge and best practices, ultimately improving the livelihoods of farmers in Bogor and contributing to the local economy.

Abstract

Ratooning can be used as an alternative cultivation technique for production of sorghum. This study was aimed to evaluate the growth and production of ratoon following the main crop. The study was conducted during August 2013 until November 2014, at Cikabayan Experimental Station, Bogor Agricultural University. The research was arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications. The results showed that genotypes was significantly affected the vegetative and reproductive characters, physiologycal characters of the main crop, ratooning ability, and vegetative characters of ratoon crop. Plant height, stem diameter, fresh and dry weight, harvest time, and harvest index of main crops had significant correlation with ratooning ability. Plant height, total chlorophyll, fresh and dry weight, panicle weight, grain weight per panicle, 1,000 grain weight, harvest index, and transpiration rate of main crops had significant correlation with ratoon growth. Based on path analysis, the main crop growth directly affected ratoon height, and vegetative characters of ratoon directly affected the yield. The ratoon yielded 48.9-65.7% of the main crop yield. Keywords: path analysis, ratooning ability, ratoon crops

Abstract

Budi daya cabai oleh Kelompok Taruna Tani Muara Jaya Tani Kelurahan Mulyaharja, Kota Bogor masih secara konvensional. Budi daya cabai didasarkan pada kebiasaaan dan belum menerapkan good agricultural practices (GAP). Hal lain yang dihadapi yaitu masih tingginya serangan organisme pengganggu tanaman (OPT) yang berdampak pada rendahnya produktivitas cabai yang dihasilkan. Kegiatan tersebut bertujuan meningkatkan kapasitas petani dalam menerapkan praktik budi daya yang efektif dan berkelanjutan. Kegiatan pendampingan dilaksanakan melalui pelatihan secara teoritis dan praktik mengenai GAP cabai, pelatihan identifikasi OPT utama cabai, serta pelatihan penerapan prinsip 5T (tepat sasaran, tepat jenis, tepat dosis, tepat waktu, dan tepat cara) dalam penggunaan pestisida dan pembuatan biopestisida berbahan sumber daya lokal. Kegiatan juga dilengkapi dengan pretest dan posttest dengan total responden 12 orang sebagai salah satu indikator untuk mengukur keberhasilan program yang dilakukan. Dampak kegiatan terlihat dari meningkatnya minat dan kemampuan petani dalam menerapkan praktik budi daya cabai yang lebih tepat dan ramah lingkungan yaitu melalui partisipasi aktif dalam kegiatan budi daya cabai mulai dari penyiapan lahan hingga penanaman dan perawatan, keikutsertaan dan antusiasme dalam pembuatan pestisida nabati juga aplikasinya, serta adanya peningkatan nilai pada post-test dengan rata-rata 24 dari 100. Indikator tersebut diharapkan menjadi bukti nyata adanya peningkatan kapasitas petani dalam melakukan budi daya cabai secara efektif dengan produktivitas maksimal dan berkelanjutan.
