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

Drought is a significant climate-related hazard that severely impacts agricultural productivity, particularly in rainfed paddy fields. This study aimed to analyze the spatial distribution and severity of drought in paddy fields using the Normalized Difference Drought Index (NDDI) derived from Sentinel-2A satellite imagery. The research was conducted in South Polombangkeng District, Takalar Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia, during the dry season in October 2023. The NDDI was calculated by integrating the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and the Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI). The results indicated that 85.78% of the paddy fields experienced severe drought, while mild and moderate drought covered 9.30% and 4.92%, respectively. NDVI analysis revealed that 87.81% of the area had very low to low vegetation density, and NDWI confirmed extreme moisture deficiency, with 99.88% of the area under very severe drought conditions. The accuracy of the NDDI drought map, validated using the Area Under the Curve (AUC), was 0.62, indicating acceptable model performance. These findings provide critical spatial information for drought mitigation and water management in vulnerable agricultural regions. The study demonstrates the utility of Sentinel-2A and NDDI for localized drought assessment and supports evidence-based decision-making for sustainable farming practices in drought-prone areas.
