Abstract

Fertilizers play an essential role in increasing the productivity of shallot farmers in the Latimojong Regency. Still, the distribution of subsidized fertilizers is often not on time and not on target, thus hindering agricultural productivity. This gap shows the need to evaluate agricultural extension workers' use of farmer cards to increase shallot productivity in the Latimojong Regency. The research objectives are: 1). Analyzing the use of farmer cards in shallot farming activities. 2). analyzed the productivity of shallots in Latimojong District (3) analyzed the role of extension workers in shallot farming in Latimojong District; 4). Analyze the influence of the use of farmers and extension workers on productivity. This research was carried out in January-April 2024, and the data collection method included primary and secondary sources. The research sample amounted to 65 respondents who were taken deliberately (purposive) with the consideration of the highest onion producer in Luwu Regency who used the farmer card as a redeemer for subsidized fertilizer. The research sample was taken from 3 farmer groups. The variables in this study are the role of extension workers, the use of farmer cards, and productivity. Data analysis uses descriptive and inferential methods with a quantitative paradigm. Descriptive analysis explains the observed variables by creating categories based on the distribution of respondents. Meanwhile, inferential analysis uses the Variation-based Structural Equation Model (VB-SEM) to explain the influence between variables. The Smart PLS 3.92 and SPSS 25 software applications facilitate data analysis. The results of the study show that the use of farmer cards does not impact productivity growth. Even farmers experience difficulties in the flow of subsidized fertilizer collection. However, extension workers have a good impact on increasing shallot productivity.

Abstract

The use of plants for aromatherapy has a long-standing tradition. One common application is the creation of massage oils and roll-on products made from essential oils. When inhaled or applied to the skin, essential oils can stimulate the sensory system, helping to alleviate symptoms of headaches and migraines and promote relaxation. This community service initiative aimed to empower residents to create simple products using essential oils from local plants. The activity took place in June 2025 in Cendana Putih Village, located in the Mappadeceng District of North Luwu Regency, and involved participation from village officials and community members. As a result of this initiative, massage oils and roll-on products were developed using various essential oils.

Abstract

Cinnamomum sulavesianum is an aromatic plant in Sulawesi, exhibiting significant potential as an antibacterial candidate. The ongoing search for new antibacterial agents, particularly from natural sources, is crucial due to the rising antibiotic resistance. This study aims to identify the essential oil composition of C. sulavesianum and evaluate its antibacterial properties in silico and in vitro. This study represents the first report on the essential oil content of C. sulavesianum bark and its associated antibacterial effects. The analysis of essential oil content was conducted using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) with an Agilent Technologies 7890 Gas Chromatograph equipped with an Auto Sampler. The in silico analysis has been performed through molecular docking of compounds found in C. sulavesianum. Antibacterial testing was carried out using the disc diffusion method, targeting bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The results from the GC-MS analysis revealed that the bark of C. sulavesianum consists of 10 essential oil compounds, with the primary constituents being Linalool (32.3%), Copaene (6.77%), Eugenol (5.05%), and Eucalyptol (3.17%). In silico evaluations suggest these compounds possess antibacterial potential against gram-positive and gram-negative pathogenic bacteria. Furthermore, in vitro assessments demonstrated that the bark extract of C. sulavesianum formed an inhibition zone that was, on average, categorized as strong based on its inhibitory efficacy. These findings indicate that C. sulavesianum bark holds promise for developing new antibiotics.
