Abstract

Swampy land is an alternative for rice plant cultivation where the amount of rainfall has an impact on the amount of inundation. In order to provide appropriate water for rice plants, especially during the dry season, an irrigation water system is required for its control.Alternative materials such as dry rubber latex and vermicom-post can be utilized to reduce water use and ensure that water is delivered as efficiently as possible. The goal of this study was to see how dried rubber latex on the soil surface and vermicompost in the soil affected rice plant water demand and growth. This research was conducted from November 2020 – February 2021. The study used a factorial randomized block design (RAKF) with 2 treatments, covered dry rubber latex variations (K), K0 (0%), K1 (25%), K2 (50%), K3 (75%), and vermicompos (V), V0(0 g), V1(58.82 g), V2(117.64 g), V3 (176.46 g)with 3 rep-licat. So that the total treatmentsare 48 treatments.The results showed that the application of dry rubber latex and vermicompost significantly affected the number of leaves and the number of tillers. The K3 treatment (75%) was the best because it had the smallest evapotranspiration rate with an average of 1.2 mm day-1. The K3 treatment (75%) had the smallest average water requirement of 1.6 mm day-1 with an average number of 37.07 leaves. The high yield of K3 treatment was due to the wider the area covered by 75% (K3), the higher the water content, nutrients, and the lower the soil temperature. Closure using dry rubber latex can reduce sunlight so that the process of water loss is lower, and the available nutrients are higher.

Abstract

The fluctuating and decreasing production of shallots impacts the national stock. Its cultivation using high inorganic fertilizers requires high costs, reduces soil fertility, and affects long-term production.  Efforts are needed to increase production at a lower cost, reduce the use of inorganic fertilizers, and be more environmentally friendly.  One of them is using eco-enzymes that can be used as fertilizers, soil conditioners, and as a source of plant nutrients.  This study aims to evaluate and analyze the effectiveness and potential of eco-enzymes to increase the growth and production of shallots, while reducing the amount of inorganic fertilizer.  The study used a Randomized Block Design, four replications. There were three levels of treatment: P1 eco-enzyme; P2 eco-enzyme + N, P, K fertilizer 50%; P3 N, P, K fertilizer 100%. Each treatment consisted of 8 experimental units, for a total of 96, with a dose of N= 150 kg urea.ha-1, P= 200 kg SP-36.ha-1 and K= 150 kg KCl.ha-1. Eco-enzyme was given every week with a concentration of 1 ml.l-1; half was given by spraying the plants and half by watering the media.  The results showed that eco-enzyme is effective and can potentially increase the growth and production of shallots and reduce the use of inorganic fertilizers N, P, and K by up to 50%. The eco-enzyme + 50% N, P, K fertilizer produced shallot with the highest number of leaves per bulb and clump, number of bulbs per clump, circumference of bulbs, weight per bulb, and weight of bulbs per clump.

Abstract

Sweet corn is a horticultural crop with high economic value and steadily increasing market demand. However, sweet corn productivity in Indonesia remains relatively low, ranging from 8 to 10 tons per hectare, well below its genetic potential of 12 to 15 tons per hectare. This low productivity is attributed to several factors, including soil fertility degradation caused by unsustainable cultivation practices, pest and disease infestations, and limited farmer access to quality agricultural inputs at affordable prices. Sweet corn plants respond well to inorganic fertilizers; however, long-term use of these fertilizers can degrade soil quality and fertility, reduce microbial activity, and increase production costs. Moreover, excessive reliance on inorganic fertilizers leads to soil nutrient imbalances, reduced organic matter content, and adverse environmental impacts. Therefore, efforts are needed to reduce this dependence, one of which involves utilizing eco-enzymes as an organic nutrient supplement. This study aimed to evaluate the growth and yield responses of Hybrid-F1 sweet corn plants to reduced NPK fertilizer doses, combined with eco-enzyme application via soil drenching and foliar spray. The study employed a Randomized Block Design with four replications and four treatment levels, comparing full NPK fertilizer doses, a 50% reduction in NPK fertilizer combined with eco-enzyme, and standalone eco-enzyme application. The results demonstrated significant improvements in fertilization efficiency, with the combination of a 50% reduction in NPK fertilizer and weekly applications of 1 ml/l eco-enzyme via soil drenching and foliar spray achieving optimal growth and production equivalent to full fertilization. Another important finding is that eco-enzyme can be used independently without inorganic fertilizers; plants still grew normally and produced ears, although yields were relatively lower. For best results, it is recommended to use a combination of a 50% reduction in NPK fertilizer dose and eco-enzyme application through both soil drenching and foliar spray. This approach not only reduces production costs by up to 50% but also promotes more sustainable and environmentally friendly cultivation practices.
