Abstract

This study aims to determine the appropriate thickness of cassava skin and durian skin in reducing the levels of Fe and Mn contained in dug well water. The study was designed using a single factor complete randomized design, namely the thickness of the waste cassava skin and durian skin which included 0 cm (control), 15 cm, 30 cm, and 60 cm. Each treatment was repeated 3 times to obtain 12 experimental units. Water samples were taken by a dug well from one of the residents' houses in RT 08, Padang Serai Village, Bengkulu City. Furthermore, the water samples were taken to the Bengkulu Ministry of Health Poltekkes Environmental Health Workshop. Observational data will be analyzed statistically using ANOVA level of 5%. Then if the data is significantly different, it will be tested further with the Least Significant Difference (LSD) Test. The results showed that the application of cassava peels and durian peels reduced Fe and Mn levels compared to controls. Application of cassava skin waste and durian skin with a thickness of 30 cm in water treatment of dug wells because they are able to reduce Fe and Mn levels below the threshold and is more economical.

Abstract

Entisols are soils that are widely used in Indonesia, both for irrigated and rainfed rice fields, for vegetable cultivation, and others. Vermicompost also contains many of the nutrients available to plants and increases soil porosity, soil aeration, and humidity, and controls soil erosion so that it can help in buffering toxins for plants and promoting plant growth. Corn is a cereal crop that is the second most important food crop in Indonesia besides rice. The volume of corn imports is higher than exports, this is due to the high demand for corn but domestic corn production has not been able to fulfill it. The experimental design used was a Randomized Completely Block Design (RCBD), seven levels of vermicompost doses, namely 0; 2.5; 5.0; 7.5; 10; 12.5; and 15 tons ha-1) each repeated 4 times. This study aims to determine the dose of vermicompost fertilizer that can improve the properties of Entisols and yields of maize (Zea mays L.). The application of vermicompost fertilizer with seven dose levels had a significant effect on N nutrient levels in coastal Entisols. Doses of vermicompost were able to increase dry stover weight, cob weight with husk, and cob weight without husk of corn plants.

Abstract

This study aims to find out the reasons women decide to work as a farmer, knowing the understanding of women in the utilization of agricultural resources, and know how big the role of women in the intensification of the family economy. The method to determine the respondent used in this research is census method with numbering 100 persons. Analysis of the data used is descriptive analysis and qualitative analysis of revenue contribution. The results showed that the reasons women choose to work as farmers because of their desire to help their husbands in contributing family income which is driven by the load factors of family burden.  Looking for experiences and shared responsibility are other reasons for women to work in agricultural activities. Their knowledge and understanding of agriculture, women are only know how to grow crops and produce. Stages how sustainable farming, care for the environment with organic farming systems is not yet implemented. This is caused by the lack of knowledge of owmen. Income contribution of women to family incomes is high, with a range of contribution 40% - 59% of total family income. This condition can be a reason for  women to participate in decision-making within the household. So the presence of women within the family becomes more important and appreciated.
