Abstract

Introduction: Games have an important role from a social point of view in human and cultural development.  Exergaming is a form of digital gaming that combines video games and physical activity that uses a motion tracking device to record gestures and complete gameplay on a screen.  Therapeutic exergaming has the potential to facilitate improved balance, including reducing center of pressure (CoP) variability, home-based exercise for older adults, and exercise for people with balance disorders. Method: for this literature review we searched journals taken from search engines such as google, google scholar, Pubmed, and PubMed Central,  published from the inception of the respective databases to June 2022.  The keywords therapeutic exergaming, exergaming, video game, physical therapy, consoled game, virtual reality were used in writing this literature. The literature search and journal reading were limited to sources which was free and written in English. We addressed several aspects of exergaming such as the device sensor feedback, its application to augment therapy and to manage diseases, and its implementation in developing countries. Conclusions: The benefits of exergaming have been widely studied and are known to have many positive effects on health, such as improving cognitive function, increasing physical activity, exercising balance, and improving vascular function. Exergaming has become an alternative therapy in Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, and as a means of gait rehabilitation in geriatric patients. Exergaming also has the potential to reduce the risk of obesity in children.

Abstract

The relationship between watersheds (DAS) and rice fields, namely watersheds is a shallow water area whose topography is dominated by mountains, mountain ridges that collect and store rainwater before being released to rice fields through the main river. This study aims to identify GIS based technical and non-technical rice fields, and analyze the characteristics of technical and non-technical rice fields from various aspects. This study uses a quantitative descriptive approach method based on geographic information systems (GIS). Interpretation of sentinel 2A image data was then digitized onscreen to produce a map of rice fields. Then to identify technical and non-technical rice fields, onscreen digitization was carried out with the help of interviews with related agencies. Characteristic analysis was carried out by overlaying slope slope maps, elevation and soil types to identify the biophysical characteristics of the land, while economic characteristics and management were carried out by interview method. The total area of rice fields in the Bila Sub-Watershed is 5842.35 ha. Non-technical rice fields have an area of 2777.97 ha and technical 3064.38 ha. Non-Technical Rice Fields which dominate at a flat slope of 0-8% covering an area of 1637.05 ha (28.02%). Likewise, technical rice fields with a flat slope of 0-8% cover an area of 2393.76 ha (40.97%). Non-technical rice fields dominate at an altitude of 0-500 above sea level (with an area of 2643.66 ha (45.25%). Likewise, technical rice fields 0-500 above sea level, with an area of 3061.55 ha (52.4%). Non-technical rice fields have dystropepts soil types 527.73 ha 9.03%, 1.09 (ha) 0.02% Eutropepts, 1280.05 (ha) 21.91% Paleudults, tropaquepts 104.36 (ha) 1.79%,272.99 (ha) 4.67% Tropudalfs, 591.73 (ha) 10.1% Tropudults. Technical with an area of 1078.16 ha 18.48% Paleudults and 1986.22 ha 34% Tropaquepts. Planting is carried out 2 times a year, both technical and non-technical rice fields. For the provision of water to non-technical rice fields, it only relies on rainwater for rice field needs. Meanwhile, technical rice fields rely on water from irrigation networks, pipes and pumping machines as auxiliary tools.

Abstract

               Mustard greens (Brassica juncea L.) are one of the vegetables widely consumed by the Indonesian population because they are low in calories but full of micronutrients such as vitamins A, C, and K, and essential minerals like calcium and manganese, making the demand for this plant very high. However, this substantial demand has not been matched by relatively low production by farmers. This is because mustard greens are generally grown naturally using small-scale land cultivation systems. As a result, efforts to increase plant production through Colchicine, which is used in polyploidy induction to produce plants with multiple chromosomes, have been applied. The large cell size resulting from polyploidy is expected to provide better growth and yield. The application of a hydroponic system in mustard green cultivation allows the plants to absorb nutrients and colchicine compounds optimally, making their utilization more effective and efficient in plant growth. This research aims to determine the appropriate colchicine concentration on the number of chromosomes, growth, and yield of mustard greens. The study was arranged in a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with colchicine concentration treatments consisting of six levels: 0% concentration as control, 1% colchicine, 2% colchicine, 3% colchicine, 4% colchicine, and 5% colchicine, each treatment repeated four times to obtain 24 observation units. The results showed that the application of colchicine at a 5% concentration had the best effect on growth and production, especially in parameters of plant height, number of leaves, and fresh weight.

Abstract

Disasters for plantjs usually occur due to the incompatibility of the environmental temperature with the temperature limit for plant growth, one example is the pakcoy plant which requires exposure to direct light with the air temperature not being too hot. Evaporative cooling is one of the methods to reduce temperature and increase relative humiditygreenhouse to create optimal climatic conditions for plants. One way of evaporative cooling is done by using a toolmisting (atomizer). This study aims to determine the effectiveness of usemisting in microclimate control (temperature and humidity). Greenhouse on the growth of pakcoy plants. This study used the method of direct observation which was carried out during the planting period of pakcoy plants. Based on the results obtained, the lowest average temperature was in the 30 minutes misting of 27–30 °C, at misting 20 minutes 27–31 °C, meanwhile misting for 10 minutes 27–31 °C and withoutmisting ranges from 32–38 °C. Air humidity on misting 30 and 20 minutes between 81–89 % and treatment misting 10 minutes ranged from 82–89%, while at without misting ranging from 63–77%. The use of misting as an effective control of temperature and humidity produces an average air temperature and relative humidity for the growth of pakcoy plants, namely a temperature of 26-31 °C and a humidity of 82-89%. The misting treatment with an interval of 20 minutes produced the highest number of leaves, namely 22 leaves and the misting treatment with an interval of 10 minutes produced the plants with the highest plant height and weight. The use of misting ignition time intervals has a significant effect on temperature but does not have a significant effect on humidity.

Abstract

Pertanian berperan penting sebagai penopang ketahanan pangan sekaligus sumber pendapatan masyarakat desa. Desa Nisombalia, Kecamatan Marusu, Kabupaten Maros, memiliki jumlah penduduk 4.471 jiwa, dengan 2.749 pemuda berusia 13–25 tahun yang berpotensi besar untuk mengembangkan sektor pertanian. Sayangnya, minat generasi muda terhadap pertanian menurun karena keterbatasan pemahaman dalam pengelolaan fasilitas seperti greenhouse dan kandang ayam. Maka dar itu, Tim PKK ORMAWA HIMATEPA-UH melalui program “Sanggar Tani Muda Desa Nisombalia” menawarkan penerapan Integrated Farming System berbasis prinsip zero waste. Kegiatan meliputi pelatihan budidaya hidroponik, hortikultura (tomat, cabai, jagung), pemeliharaan ternak ayam Alope dan Petelur serta budidaya ikan lele dan nila terintegrasi dengan produksi maggot. Program ini diharapkan mampu meningkatkan keterampilan pemuda, memaksimalkan infrastruktur yang ada serta menciptakan sistem usaha tani modern yang produktif, ramah lingkungan dan mendukung kemandirian pangan desa. Secara keseluruhan, kegiatan ini berhasil meningkatkan pemahaman dan keterampilan pemuda terkait Integrated Farming System berbasis zero waste yang mewujudkan melalui Sanggar Tani Muda dan penerapan sistem terpadu seperti (hidroponik, peternakan, perikanan, dan maggot) di Desa Nisombalia, sehingga pemuda mampu mengelola sumber daya secara lebih efektif, produktif, inovatif dan ramah lingkungan.    Kata kunci: Pertanian, sanggar tani, maggot, mandiri pangan, Nisombalia.   ABSTRACT Agriculture plays a vital role in supporting food security and generating income for rural communities. Nisombalia Village, Marusu District, Maros Regency, has a population of 4,471, with 2,749 youths aged 13–25 who possess significant potential to develop the agricultural sector. Unfortunately, the interest of the younger generation in agriculture is declining due to limited understanding of facility management, such as greenhouses and poultry coops. Therefore, the PKK ORMAWA HIMATEPA UNHAS Team, through the “Nisombalia Young Farmers' Center (Sanggar Tani Muda)” program, proposed the implementation of an Integrated Farming System based on the zero−waste principle. Activities include training in hydroponics, horticulture (tomatoes, chili, corn), maintenance of Alope and layer chickens, as well as integrated catfish and tilapia aquaculture with maggot production. This program is expected to enhance the skills of the youth, maximize existing infrastructure, and establish a productive, environmentally friendly, and modern farming system that supports the village's food self-sufficiency. Overall, this activity successfully increased the youth's understanding and skills related to the Integrated Farming System based on zero−waste, which was realized through the formation of the Sanggar Tani Muda and the implementation of the integrated system (hydroponics, livestock, fisheries, and maggot) in Nisombalia Village, enabling the youth to manage resources more effectively, productively, innovatively, and environmentally friendly. Keywords: Agriculture, farmers’ center, maggot, food self-sufficiency, Nisombalia.

Abstract

Introduction: With increasing life expectancy, the elderly population is at higher risk for cardiorespiratory decline. Exercise is known to reduce this decline, but adherence to exercise programs can be low. Virtual reality (VR) exergaming offers an engaging alternative, potentially increasing motivation while providing similar benefits. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of VR exergaming in improving cardiorespiratory function in elderly individuals. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 40 elderly participants (VR exergaming, n=24; conventional aerobic exercise, n=16). Both groups exercised three times per week for six weeks. The VR group used Ring Fit Adventure on the Nintendo Switch, while the control group performed structured aerobic exercises. Cardiorespiratory parameters—heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), blood pressure (BP), predicted maximal oxygen uptake (VO₂ max) from the 6-minute walking test (6MWT), peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR), and peak cough flow rate (PCFR)—were assessed before and after the intervention. Results: Significant improvements were observed in VO₂ max, RR, BP, PEFR, and PCFR in both groups, though HR did not change significantly. Despite baseline differences in VO₂ max, overall improvements were comparable between the two groups. Conclusion: VR exergaming was as effective as conventional exercise in improving cardiorespiratory function in older adults and offers an engaging and enjoyable alternative.

Abstract

Background: Obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease and metabolic disorders. Exergaming offers an accessible, interactive alternative to promote physical activity. This study aimed to assess the changes in the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), heart rate recovery (HRR), and maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) in adults with obesity and normal weight after a six-week exergame intervention. Methods: A quasi-experimental pre-post study involved 29 adults (15 obese, 14 normal BMI) who participated in exergame sessions three times of 40 minutes weekly for six weeks. Inclusion criteria included adults aged 18–45 years with a BMI of 18.5–24.9 kg/m² (normal) or ≥25 kg/m² (obese), normal or corrected vision, and willingness to complete the intervention. Exclusion criteria included individuals with cardiovascular, neurological, or uncontrolled medical conditions, recent surgery or hospitalization, pregnancy, participation in other exercise programs within the previous four weeks, cognitive or sensory impairments, withdrawal from the study, repeated absences, or adverse events such as cybersickness. Outcomes included 6MWT distance, HRR, and VO2max. The paired T-test or Wilcoxon test was used for within-group comparisons, and the independent T-test or Mann-Whitney test for between-group analysis. Results: Significant within-group improvements were observed after the intervention. The 6MWT distance increased by 26.21 m, from 364.48 ± 46.92 m to 390.69 ± 43.17 m (p < 0.001). HRR improved by 11.14 bpm, from 24.41 ± 8.35 bpm to 35.55 ± 8.92 bpm (p = 0.003). VO2max increased by 0.79 mL/kg/min, from 14.91 ± 1.85 to 15.70 ± 1.84 mL/kg/min (p < 0.001). However, between-group differences were not statistically significant for 6MWT (p = 0.397), peak heart rate (p = 0.739), HRR (p = 0.220), and VO2max (p = 0.397), indicating similar improvements in both groups. Conclusion: Six weeks of exergaming significantly improved functional capacity and cardiorespiratory fitness comparably in both obese and normal-weight adults, suggesting it was an inclusive and practical option for community-based physical activity programs.

Abstract

Background: More than 60% of stroke patients have chronic neurological impairments that impair hand strength and cognitive function, lowering their quality of life. While virtual reality (VR) exergames have been extensively researched as adjuvant therapies, evidence of their simultaneous effects on motor and cognitive skills is scarce. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of VR exergames on handgrip strength and cognitive function in post-stroke patients. Methods: The study used a randomized controlled trial design with 60 subacute post-stroke patients who were randomly assigned to either the control group, which received conventional care (occupational therapy and physiotherapy), or the intervention group (conventional care plus VR exergame therapy) for eight weeks. This study included first-time stroke patients with onset ≥1 month, mild to moderate hemiparesis (MMT ≥ 3), and hemodynamic stability. Participants with significant spasticity (MAS > 3), aphasia, or uncontrolled comorbidities were excluded. Before, during, and after the intervention, handgrip strength and cognitive function were tested using the Indonesian version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-Ina). Results: After 8 weeks of therapy, the intervention group showed a significant increase in handgrip strength (+3.9 points, p-value= 0.040) and MoCA-Ina scores (+5 points, p-value= 0.007) compared to the control group. Conclusion: Integrating VR exergames with conventional rehabilitation significantly improves handgrip strength and cognitive function in post-stroke patients compared to traditional therapy alone.
