Abstract

Research this study aims to evaluate the level of consumer preference through a hedonic test of processed bok choy (Brassica rapa L.) juice from hydroponic, conventional, and microgreen cultivation. The parameters tested included taste, color, texture, aroma, and physical appearance. The results of statistical analysis (ANOVA) showed that cultivation techniques significantly affected all parameters except color. The microgreen technique was consistently the most preferred treatment by panelists with the highest average scores for taste (3.45), texture (2.84), aroma (3.36), and physical appearance (3.48). This superiority is thought to be related to the more intense concentration of volatile compounds in young plant tissue, while conventional techniques tended to obtain the lowest scores. The study concluded that in terms of organoleptic quality, bok choy with microgreen cultivation techniques had the best level of panelist acceptance.

Abstract

Air pollution is a major environmental problem in urban areas that affects human health and the environment. One natural way to reduce air pollution is through the use of floral biodiversity. This study aims to identify the level of plant diversity, the ecological role of flora in reducing air pollution, and the supporting and limiting factors in Jambangan Sub-district. The research was conducted in RW 02 and RW 03 using a qualitative descriptive method through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data were analyzed using the Shannon–Wiener diversity index, evenness index, and dominance index. The results show that plant diversity in the study area is high, with index values of 2.95 in RW 02 and 2.93 in RW 03. Flora plays an important role in absorbing carbon dioxide, producing oxygen, trapping dust particles, and improving the microclimate. Supporting factors include community participation and the availability of green open spaces, while limiting factors include limited land, high building density, and lack of plant maintenance. Improvement efforts can be made through greening programs, environmental education, proper plant selection, and support from local government policies.Â
