Abstract

Palmyra wood (Borassus flabellifer L) is a widely distributed palm species in tropical Asia, including East Nusa Tenggara (NTT). Its wood has potential applications in construction, handicrafts, and bioenergy, making anatomical and fiber morphology studies essential for understanding its value and utilization. This research used palmyra wood samples from Timor Island, Kupang, in the form of discs with a diameter of approximately 30 cm, taken from the base, middle, and upper parts of the stem. Test specimens were prepared in 2 × 2 × 5 cm dimensions, and analyses were conducted following standard procedures. The results revealed that palmyra wood possesses anatomical characteristics typical of palms, namely collateral closed-type vascular bundles irregularly scattered within parenchymatous ground tissue, with phloem located outside the xylem. Fiber morphology exhibited a gradual reduction in dimensions from the base to the tip of the stem, with fiber diameters ranging from 38.48 to 15.64 µm, wall thickness from 17.09 to 6.92 µm, and lumen diameters from 13.02 to 5.42 µm. The number of vascular bundles also decreased from 3.0 at the base to 1.21 at the tip, with bundle density ranging from 0.49 to 0.20/mm². Overall, palmyra wood exhibits stronger mechanical properties at the base of the trunk, as demonstrated by the anatomy and morphology of its fibers, thus increasing its biological durability. These findings highlight its potential as a structural material, craft resource, and bioenergy feedstock in dryland regions such as NTT.

Abstract

The “Setetes Madu” group is a group of farmers/livestock breeders located in Camplong II Village, Fatuleu District, Kupang Regency, which is engaged in the field of cattle fattening/paron. The fattening efforts carried out by this group of farmers/livestock breeders have shown significant improvement. However, there is one main problem faced by the target farmer/livestock breeder group, namely the lack of understanding of the intensive, continuous and integrated agricultural land management system between agriculture, forestry and livestock so that it has sustainable results throughout the year. The purpose of the activity is to implement a land management system by combining agricultural components or activities with forestry and livestock components on a land so that it can overcome the problem of land and animal feed availability, increase land productivity, especially on marginal land. The methods used are in the form of counseling and direct practice in the field. Counseling related to the understanding and benefits of applying the Agrosilvopasture method to a land, the economic value and soil conservation value obtained from the application of the agrosilvopasture method. Direct field practice in the form of making agrosilvopasture demonstration plots and making organic fertilizers. The results of the activity are in the form of increasing the knowledge of group members regarding agro-silvopasture, understanding and being able to make bokashi organic fertilizer by utilizing agricultural and livestock waste, increasing the economic value and income of the community from the sale of agricultural crops planted and increasing land productivity.
