Abstract

This research aimed to study the effectivity of agroedutourism to strengthen students' environmental awareness, especially concerning on importance of rice organic farming system. Eighty three students were invited joining the program. They were the 5th grade of three elementary schools (SDN Ketawanggede 2, SDI Surya Buana and SDN Sumberngepoh 02). It was provided three agroedutourism programs, i.e. two outdoors programs (Farmers' friends and enemies, Plants for biopesticide and natural attractant), as well as the indoor session called Healthy agroecosystem. Including the programs were joining ecoeco-games and tasting some food (steamed rice-bran brownies, organic red rice milk and zalacca fruits). Effectivity of the programs was evaluated using questionnaire. Data were analyzed by SPSS program using Wilcoxon test (α=0,05). Results showed overall that the agroedutourism increased significantly students cognitive, affective and even their appreciation to agricultural environment. Students of SDN Sumberngepoh 02 showed a highest agro-environmental awareness. While, the highest cognitive improvement was gained by students of SDI Surya Buana (76%), followed by SDN Ketawanggede 2 (62%) and SDN Sumberngepoh 02 (47%). The most interesting program was an outdoor namely Farmers' friends and enemies, while they preferred a steamed rice-bran brownies than the other one. They were exciting joining some eco-games especially predator and prey as well as guest animal name and its role. It seemed that the outdoor programs were more appreciated rather than the indoor one. Keywords: Agroedutourism, awareness, effectivity, healthy agro-ecosystem

Abstract

Five farmer groups in Lawang, Malang Regency, East Java Provinces, established organic agricultural practices almost two decades. They were visited frequently for farmer benchmarking activities; therefore they had planned to develop agroedutourism. The aims of this research were to identify potential organic farming activities as agroedutourism attractions as well as farmer ecopreneurship, to find out the existing agroedutourism facilities profile and to propose some strategies for further sustainable development. The data were gathered by interviewing key person of each farmer group in Lawang. Their agroedutourism profiles compared with a developed local agro-tourism using gap analysis. Farmer groups offered some distinct attractions and become their strengths such as out door activities in the organic perfumed and pigmented rice field, fruits and vegetable garden, zero waste management, biological pest control and healthy agricultural products. Establishment of this agroedutourism would be advantageous to lesson sharing among farmers and students, to be ecopreneur activity shown by an effective market system, to show real benefits of healthy agro-ecosystem and its products, as well as to show promising green business or ecopreneurship. Collaboration among them would improve available attractions and length of visit. Moreover, the results showed that 80% of farmer groups were visited regularly 5-10 times per month by potential visitors such as other farmer groups, house wives, staffs of agricultural departments and students. All farmer groups planned to develop agroedutourism; however the policy was only issued by 60% of farmer groups. Most of farmer groups showed a high variability in providing edutourism tours and guides. For sustainable development, farmer groups should provide more interesting attractions and facilities, develop their human resource, net working, and public promotion.

Abstract

This research aimed to build specific agroedutourism model for elementary school students in Malang Raya. Target of this research were 5th grade students from SDN Ketawanggede 2, SDN Sumberngepoh 02 and SDI Surya Buana. We provided three agroedutourism programs, there were 1). Learning on farmer's friends and enemies, 2). Learning on plants as raw material for biopesticide and natural attractant and 3). Learning on healthy agroecosystem. Each agroedutourism program was composed by discussion, eco-games and taste of healthy foods. Data obtained by distributing questionnaires and analyzed by open source software, Smart PLS (Partial Least Square). Agroedutourism model from PLS output showed that learning on farmer's friends and enemies program was the most effective to improve cognitive competence, enjoyment, pleasure, and the final-understanding of elementary school students than the other programs. While, initial-understanding directly contributing to improve cognitive competence and final-understanding of elementary school students. Cognitive competences directly influence to improve the student's appraisal of foods that were obtained. Student enjoyment directly influence to affection and appreciation. Based on those models, to improve final-understanding, we had to improve initial-understanding using learning on farmer's friends and enemies program. Students' appreciation was improved by improving affection and appreciation. Keywords: agroedutourism, appreciation, cognitive, environmental awareness.

Abstract

The research aimed to monitor surface water quality by using water quality index NSF-WQI and accurate biotic index of benthic macroinvertebrate. This study was conducted in September to November 2012 in some water tourism destinations in three regencies, i.e. Jember (three sites), Pasuruan (one site), and Malang (one site), East Java, Indonesia. Each site consisted of three stations (upstream, middlestream and downstream). Reference upstream and middlestream were located in the Meru Betiri National Park (MBNP) Jember. Water quality and benthic macroinvertebrates sampling were conducted in each site. While physical-chemical data consisted of TDS, DO, pH, NO3-N, TP and temperature were analyzed to determine the NSF-WQI index. Macrozoobenthic data were analyzed to determine three diversity indices and 11 biotic indices. Results showed that based on parameter of DO, TP, NO3-N, TDS and pH, water quality in downstreams were generally lower than upstreams. Upstream to middlestreams of two sites in Jember were good to excellent based on NSF-WQI water quality and biotic indices. Therefore, the water were qualified as drinking water resources and also served as safe recreational water. The accurate biotic indices to surface water quality in this study were % EPT, ASPT, HBI, FBI and % Gastropodes.Keywords: biotic indices, benthic macroinvertebrates, water quality index, water tourisms destination

Abstract

Kromoleo swamp located in Sumberpucung Malang is used as tourism, fishing, agricultural and fisheries area. The aim of this study was to evaluate the water quality in Kromoleo Swamp based on physical, chemical and biological parameters (phytoplankton and periphyton). Water biotic and abiotic factors were taken at upstream, middle 1 (left and right sides), middle 2 (left and right sides), and downstream (left and right sides). Measurements of water chemical and physics quality included temperature, brightness, solar intensity, turbidity, conductivity, pH, DO, nitrate, orthophosphate, and BOD content, as well as determined by phytoplankton and periphyton as bioindicators. TDI index (Trophic Diatom Index) was used to determine trophic status. Meanwhile, %PTV (Pollution Tolerant Value) was used to determine the level of organic pollution. The results of this study indicated the parameters of water temperature, pH, DO, nitrate and conductivity  were still in normal levels, while BOD, turbidity, orthophosphate and water brightness reflected high organic matter pollution. Water quality based on the Shannon-Wiener diversity index of phytoplankton and periphyton was classified as clean water (H'=3.3 - 4.3). However, aquatic trophic status based on TDI index value on phytoplankton and periphyton (69.10 - 86.71) were categorized as eutrophic to hyper eutrophic water. While the pollution level based on % PTV in phytoplankton and periphyton ( 27.62 - 66.88%) grouped into lightly - heavy organic polluted. Keywords: Periphyton, Phytoplankton, Swamp, Tourism, Water Quality.

Abstract

Small-scale gold mining is one of the sectors that contribute to the world's largest mercury contamination through the tailings it produces. Many efforts have been made to reduce mercury concentrations from tailings, one of which is by utilizing a combination of plants and bacteria. This study aims to analyze the combination of mercury-resistant biofilm-forming bacteria and local plants in the phytoremediation of small-scale gold mine tailings. This study used ten plant species divided into three groups and three biofilm-forming mercury-resistant bacteria (Bacillus toyonensis, Burkholderia cepacia, and Microbacterium chocolatum). Parameters observed included plant biomass, total chlorophyll, plant mercury content and media. The results showed that adding bacteria to each plant in the treatment had a different effect. Some plants with the addition of biofilm-forming bacteria had a higher wet weight than others. However, the addition of bacteria was not effective in increasing plant dry weight. The combination of biofilm-forming bacteria in the first and second plant groups reduced tailings mercury concentrations better than without the addition of bacteria. The combination of plants and bacteria in the third group gave higher media and plant mercury concentrations. This study shows that the addition of biofilm-forming bacteria can lead to increased remediation by plants. The second plant group treatment with a combination of P. indica, P. conjugatum, and S. sesban plants was the most effective in reducing tailings mercury content.

Abstract

Free-range chicken is livestock reared to support the humans' need for protein alongside its ritualistic use in traditional medicine to treat diseases. This study investigates the diversity of bacterial communities in the free-range chicken cecum reared in different East Nusa Tenggara Province localities comprising Sambi 1, Sambi 2 villages, Labuan Bajo, and Kupang City. The extracted chromosomal DNA was subjected to next-generation sequencing using the V3-V4 region primers. Results revealed that the Kupang chicken cecum had the highest total tags, while the Sambi 2 village recorded the lowest. Similarly, Sambi 2 chicken cecum exhibited the highest unique tags (6662) and OTUs number (1261), while the Kupang samples gave the lowest at 2550 and 745, respectively. The Shannon diversity index for bacterial diversity demonstrated that cecum samples from Labuan Bajo (5.679) were more diverse than Sambi 1 (5.378), Sambi 2 (5.653), and Kupang samples (3.77). The bacteria with the highest dominance index (0.935) was found in Sambi 2, while the lowest was observed in the Kupang samples (0.082). The three bacterial phyla showing the highest relative abundance were those from Sambi 1, Sambi 2, and Labuan Bajo cecum samples, comprising Firmicutes, Bacteroidota, and Actinobacteriota.Conversely, the Kupang samples showed an abundance of Firmicutes, Bacteroidota, and Campilobacterota, compared to the Lactobacillus-dominated Kupang, Sambi 1, and Sambi 2 chicken cecum samples. The highest relative abundance for Bifidobacterium occurred in Sambi 1 and Sambi 2 chicken cecum samples, the Kupang samples were Campylobacter dominated, and Olsenella was abundant in the Labuan Bajo samples. Intriguingly, the bacterial composition in the tested chicken cecum samples largely comprised beneficial bacteria such as the lactic acid bacteria group. This bacterial group can be further characterized for obtaining probiotic cultures that could improve the health of free-range chickens.

Abstract

This study aimed to screen some potential local seed grains for hydroseeding and describe their characteristics based on the literature review and a year of hydroseeding application. This study used six species/variants of Poaceae (Coix lacryma-jobi, Eleusine indica, Setaria italica (brown, black, and red), Sorghum timorense, S. bicolor, Themeda arundinaceae), five species of Leguminosae (Adenanthera pavonina, Cajanus cajan, Sesbania grandiflora, S. sesban, Indigofera sp.), a species of Cyperaceae (Cyperus javanicus), Sapindaceae (Sapindus rarak), Rhamnaceae (Ziziphus jujuba), and Moringaceae (Moringa oleifera). A seed germination test was held using soil media placed in 5 pots per species until 15 days after sowing (DAS). Characters were scored, and data were statistically analyzed. A field record of one-year hydroseeding applied on 6 m x 6 m post-coal mining land plot was presented. Some data such as pH H2O, pH KCl, conductivity, and soil organic carbon among hydroseeding areas, unrevegetated areas, and reference sites were observed. Results showed that there were 13 of 17 species could variably germinate. The fastest germination time was recorded for S. timorense, S. bicolor, red S. italica, C. cajan, and S. grandiflora, while the highest germination rate (≥50%) was black S. italica (80%), brown S. italica (58%) and S. bicolor (50%). The annual black and brown S. italica, S. bicolor, and S. timorense were highly recommended to be used in hydroseeding. The perennial C. cajan, Indigofera sp., S. sesban, and T. arundinaceae were also potential to be added into a hydroseeding slurry to improve pioneer vegetation multilayering structure and diversity.

Abstract

Farmers in Malang cultivated rice intensively since 2019 due to water availability but reduce yields. It might also reduce soil productivity and increase pest attacks, so the conversion field to organic polyculture was needed using sorghum and legumes. The research aims were to evaluate soil fauna dynamics and soil properties in the three, six, and 12 months after converting (mac) into organic polyculture. Soil and micro-climate factors were recorded including air temperature (°C), day length (hours), rainfall (mm), water content (%), organic matter content (%), electrical conductivity (mS.m-1), pH, and soil bulk density (g.cm-3). Soil macrofauna was sampled using hand sorting (20 x 20 x 10 cm) with five plots at each field. Identified soil macrofauna was used to determine the density, frequency, Important Value Index (IVI), Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index (H'), Evenness Index (E), Simpson Dominance Index (D), Diversity t-test, and Indicator Species. The Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) was used to analyze the interaction among abiotic factors and macrofauna using PAST 4.05. Results showed that the improvement of soil properties including soil organic matter and soil macrofauna was recorded at 6 mac compared to the intensive rice field, and continuously at 12 mac. The richness, diversity, and evenness of soil macrofauna taxa were higher in the converted field than in the intensive one due to organic polyculture. Moreover, we recorded a better proportion of detritivores and predators in the converted field after 12 months. Based on Indicator Species analysis, the dominant fire ants (Solenopsis sp.) in the intensive rice field might be considered as a potential indicator of unhealthy soil in the intensive rice fields. Whereas in the converted field the dominancy of these ants greatly decreased. We concluded that within 6 months conversion using the organic polyculture improved soil properties.

Abstract

The riparian zone along the Tamiang River, Aceh Province, is an important habitat for the survival of the tuntong laut (Batagur borneoensis) which is already threatened with extinction. This study aims to evaluate the quality and role of the riparian zone as a habitat for B. borneoensis along the Tamiang River, which can then be used as a reference in conservation. Riparian habitat quality was assessed by calculating the Qualitat del Bosc de Ribera (QBR) index, which was determined based on the total riparian cover, cover structure, cover quality, and channel alteration. In addition, observations of water quality (salinity, turbidity, and dissolved oxygen (DO)) and the number of riparian vegetation species were also carried out. Monitoring was carried out at five stations: Iyu River, Kampung Baru, Batang Lawang, Pusong Kapal Dermaga, and Pusong Kapal. The results showed variations in water quality between locations with DO and turbidity levels exceeding the quality standards set by the government. The richness of the types of riparian vegetation found ranged from 0-8 species (seedlings), 2-7 species (saplings), and 1-4 species (poles). The quality of riparian habitats in all study locations experienced significant degradation, including the euhemerobic and polyhemerobic (Hemeroby) categories, Cultural assisted system and Semi-transformed system (Naturalness), and Extreme degradation to poor-fair quality (QBR). The presence of B. borneoensis in the research location can adapt to the poor quality of riparian habitat. However, the density decreases significantly at higher salinity.
