Abstract

The low fertility of post-brick mining soil may be improved by applying biochar to the soil because biochar is an excellent soil amendment, although its quality varies depending on the raw materials used. Therefore, soil fertility, nutrient availability, and crop yields are affected by the type and amount of biochar added to soils. This study examined the effect of types and dosages of biochar on nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium availability of post-brick mining soil to increase maize yield. The treatment combinations of biochar dosages (0 t ha-1, 15 t ha-1, 30 t ha-1, and 45 t ha-1) and biochar types (coconut shell, wood, and rice husk biochars) were arranged in randomized block design with three replications. Each treatment plot measuring 4 m x 4.5 m was planted with maize seeds with a planting space of 80 cm x 25 cm. Urea (135 kg N ha-1), SP36 (36 kg P2O5 ha-1), and KCl (110 kg K2O ha-1) were applied as basal fertilizers. The results showed that at eight weeks after biochar application, the amount and type of biochar positively affected maize yield. The application of rice-husk biochar at 30 t ha-1 resulted in the highest maize yield. The application of each type of biochar at 45 t ha-1 yielded the highest increase in the availability of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium in the soil.

Abstract

Physalis angulata was known for its pharmacological potential, including antioxidant activity, yet the specific bioactive compounds responsible for enhancing endogenous antioxidant enzymes, such as superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD 1), remained unclear. This study aimed to identify and evaluate the active compounds of P. angulata as natural SOD 1 activators using an In silico molecular docking approach. Forty-nine ligands derived from the active constituents of P. angulata were screened based on Lipinski’s Rule of Five and ADMET properties. Molecular docking was performed using the SOD 1 protein (PDB ID: 5YTO), and docking validation yielded an RMSD value of 0.005 Å. Among the test ligands, withanolide exhibited the most favorable binding energy (−7.011 kcal/mol) and the lowest inhibition constant (7.0 pM), forming strong interactions with key catalytic residues of the enzyme. These findings indicated that withanolide had promising potential as a natural SOD 1 activator, providing a basis for future antioxidant drug discovery.

Abstract

The management of household waste, particularly organic waste, has emerged as a significant issue in RT 04 RW 06, Merjosari Village, Malang City. Over 50% of the total waste generated consists of organic materials. If not properly managed, organic waste can lead to environmental pollution and exacerbate health problems.This community service initiative aims to enhance public awareness and knowledge, especially among the local PKK mothers, regarding the management of organic waste through composting. The methods employed include site surveys, problem identification, coordination with relevant stakeholders, practical training on compost production, and demonstrations on using bioactivators to accelerate the composting process.The anticipated outcomes of this initiative include a reduction in the volume of unmanaged organic waste, improved soil fertility, and a decrease in negative environmental impacts. Through this training, it is hoped that the community will be better equipped to manage organic waste in a more effective and sustainable manner, ultimately fostering a cleaner and healthier environment.

Abstract

This study aims to determine how the application of rice husk biochar and nitrogen fertilizer (urea), affects the chemical properties of dryland soil and the vegetative growth of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench). This study was conducted from September 2024 to March 2025 at the Science Techno Park of Tribhuwana Tunggadewi University in Malang, East Java, using a Factorial Randomized Block Design with two factors: urea doses (0, 100, 150 and 200 kg ha-1) and biochar (0 and 5 tons ha-1) three replications. The parameters observed were pH H2O, total N-P-K, Organic-C, plant height, stem circumference, number of leaves, and leaf length and width. The results showed that the use of rice husk biochar and N fertilizer in dryland significantly interacted only on the parameter of sorghum plant height at 8 WAP. The use of the N3 dose (urea fertilizer dose of 200 kg ha-1) showed the most optimal results, but the N2 treatment (urea fertilizer dose of 150 kg ha-1) can be considered more efficient because the use of a lower dose of N fertilizer (urea) produced results that were not significantly different from the N3 treatment. Treatment B1 (5 t biochar ha-1) showed better results than B0 (no treatment).

Abstract. Widowati, Biru SM, Agastya IMI, Cahya UTW, Wilujeng R. 2025. Optimization of biochar and drip irrigation to improve chili yield and soil properties. Asian J Agric 9: 442-453. Cayenne pepper (Capsicum frutescens) is an important horticultural crop in Indonesia; however, its yield remains below optimal despite rising demand. This study intends to (i) assess changes in soil bulk density, particle density, and porosity; (ii) evaluate the effects of irrigation techniques and the application of biochar on chili yields; and (iii) identify the best combination for optimizing resource usage and yield. Eight different treatment combinations, each repeated four times, were used in a nested randomized design study conducted in Tunggulwulung Village, Malang. As the primary factor, the treatments included two main irrigation techniques (conventional and drip), which were further subdivided with different rates of biochar application (0%, 2%, 4%, and 6%). There were 160 pots total, with five plants per treatment acting as experimental units. Rice husks that had been pyrolyzed for three to four hours at 600°C were the source of the biochar. According to the results, adding biochar to conventional irrigation increases fruit weight by 125% and yield by about 130%. Drip irrigation with 4% biochar, on the other hand, is the most successful technique and yields much larger improvements, increasing fruit weight by 764% and fruit yield by 324%. Drip irrigation is more effective and yields better results than conventional irrigation, especially when combined with rice husk biochar. Furthermore, soil porosity and water use efficiency are significantly increased when 4% and 6% doses of biochar are added to drip irrigation systems.
