Abstract

Bell pepper cultivation in low-altitude regions of Indonesia holds significant promise because of increasing domestic and international demand. However, domestic production is not sufficient to meet market needs. This study investigates hydroponic cultivation as a potential solution to low-altitude agriculture. Conducted from November 2023 to January 2024 at the University of Bengkulu Greenhouse เว็บสล็อต | R4shub (10 meters above sea level), the research evaluated the performance of nine bell pepper cultivars using a single-factor completely randomized design (CRD) with three repetitions. The cultivars tested were Red Star F1, Cardinal Star, Hercules, Merah, Yellow Star F1, Golden Star F1, Polaris F1, Orange Bell F1, and Kuning. Results indicated that the Cardinal Star and Polaris F1 cultivars outperformed the others under low-altitude conditions, demonstrating superior growth and yield components. Cardinal Star exhibited the highest fruit weight per plant, whereas Polaris F1 had the highest weight per fruit or fruit size. Key word:  bell pepper, hydroponics, low altitude areas

Abstract

Cayenne peppers (Capsicum annuum L.) are horticultural commodities with high economic value and increasing market demand, both for household consumption and large-scale processing industries. However, cayenne pepper productivity in Indonesia remains relatively low, partly due to the limited availability of fertile land. One potential solution to this problem is the utilization of marginal lands, including ultisols. Ultisols possess chemical characteristics that are less favorable for optimal plant growth, such as low pH, poor nutrient content, and high aluminum saturation. There fore, this study aimed to obtain information on cayenne pepper genotypes that can adapt well and produce optimally on ultisols. The research was conducted at the Experimental Garden of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Bengkulu, from May to October 2023, using a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. Observed parameters included plant height, first dichotomous height, stem diameter, number of dichotomous points, total leaf area, shoot dry weight, stomatal density, days to first harvest, number of fruits per plant, fruit length and diameter, fruit weight per plant, and percentage of marketable fruits. Data were analyzed using ANOVA at a 5% significance level and followed by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at the same level. The results indicated significant differences among genotypes in most growth and yield parameters. The genotypes ‘Iggo’ and ‘Lajang’ exhibited superior performance, with the highest dry biomass weight and the highest fruit weight per plant. These findings suggest that the ‘Iggo’ and ‘Lajang’ genotypes hold strong potential for cultivation on Ultisol soils to support sustainable national cayenne peppers production improvement.

Abstract

Reading interest in rural communities is often hindered by limited access to books and a lack of engaging literacy programs. This study aims to quantitatively measure the increase in reading interest and visits to the "Aneka Ilmu" library in Bogor Baru Village through a Community Service Program (KKN) intervention. The research method used a quantitative approach by comparing library visitor data before and during the KKN period. Visitor data were recorded and analyzed descriptively based on age groups and gender. Results showed a significant increase in the number of library visitors, amounting to 150% compared to the previous period. The largest increase was observed in the 7-12 age group, with a 300% increase, and was predominantly female with a 240% increase. The conclusion of this study is that a structured and innovative literacy program can quantitatively increase reading interest and community participation, especially among children, in literacy activities at a village library.

Abstract

Soil in coastal areas are less suitable for agriculture due to various constraints causing low soil fertility. Until now, there has been no available bird’s eye chili variety tolerant to coastal stress conditions. This research aims to characterize nine bird’s eye chili hybrids grown on coastal land. The research was conducted on coastal land in Kuala Alam Nusa Indah, Ratu Agung District, Bengkulu, from August 2024 to February 2025. The experiment was arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. The traits observed consisted of both quantitative and qualitative variables related to bird’s eye chili growth and yield. Quantitative data were analyzed using ANOVA at a 5% and 1% significance level, followed by a Scott-Knott test, α = 5%, to assess data grouping. Qualitative data were descriptively analyzed by comparing with reference to the descriptor for capsicum. The results showed that the tested hybrids differed in all traits. The results showed that the hybrid H3 (A11 × A7) showed the highest production potential with long fruit and large yields despite slower days to flower and a small stem diameter, while hybrid H8 (A39 × A29) excelled more equally in most traits, including fast days to flower, highest plant height and dichotomous height, large stem diameter, large number of branches, high leaf greenness, long fruit with large diameter, and a high fruit weight. Overall, H3 and H8 bird’s eye chili hybrids are potential to be adapted varieties to coastal areas with improvements in several characteristics.  Full text pdf

Abstract

Ultisols memiliki potensi yang sangat besar untuk meningkatkan produksi cabai merah nasional. Namun kesuburannya yang rendah menghambat pertumbuhan dan hasil banyak tanaman, termasuk cabai. Banyak studi telah dilakukan untuk mengatasi berbagai masalah pada tanah ini, akan tetapi jarang dijumpai kajian menggunakan kombinasi beberapa teknologi budidaya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan paket teknologi budidaya hibrida cabai merah hasil tinggi di Ultisol. Penelitian dilakukan di lahan masam Ultisol, Provinsi Bengkulu, dengan ketinggian sekitar 400 m di atas permukaan laut. Empat paket teknologi diaplikasikan pada tiga varietas hibrida cabai merah baru dalam desain petak terpisah dengan tiga ulangan. Paket teknologi tersebut adalah Paket-A, Paket-B, Paket-C dan Paket-D. Varietas hibrida cabai merah yang diuji adalah UNIB CHR17F1, UNIB CHR23 dan Maxima. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan pola respon pertumbuhan dan hasil, kecuali ukuran batang, di antara ketiga varietas hibrida terhadap paket teknologi yang diuji. Paket terbaik yang dapat memberikan hasil tinggi adalah paket teknologi A diikuti oleh paket C. Varietas UNIB CHR17F1 memiliki hasil yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan hibrida lainnya.
