Abstract

Male inflorescence residue of the oil palm rich in fibre and contains cellulose content and has the potential to synthesize Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC). Male inflorescence is considered necessary removed in the early stages of the oil palm cultivation process to develop stem size, string and robust root systems. This activity generates plentiful of oil palm male inflorescence residues in the plantation. The aim of this research is to synthesis and characterize CMC fabricated from oil palm male inflorescence (OPMI-CMC) waste for use as an ice cream stabilizer, using a variety of treatments, which are commercial CMC 0.2%, OPMI-CMC 0.1%, 0.2%, and 0.3%. The results showed that CMC can be produced from organic waste of male flowers of oil palm plants. The water content, pH, purity, and degree of substitution meet the standard. The optimal concentration of OPMI-CMC for ice cream stabilizer is 0.3% based on melting time and overrun value. The FTIR analysis shows that the main functional group of the OPMI-CMC is highly comparable. Therefore, to possibly be employed as an alternative to organic CMC for food stabilizers, other standards must be fulfilled, and further research is required.

Abstract

Alang-alang (Imperata cylindrica) and Saliara (Lantana camara) are dominant weeds in several crop cultivation areas, so that when control is carried out, waste from both weeds will be produced in large quantities. Management of waste from both weeds can be done by utilizing it as a more environmentally friendly bioherbicide. Bioherbicide application is carried out pre-growth so that control is carried out faster and attacks newly germinated weed seeds, so that weeds do not appear on the surface and weed control activities will be more efficient. Alang-alang is the most dangerous weed and is highly avoided because it contains allelochemical compounds that can inhibit the growth of the main plant, this compound is found in all parts of the weed but is found most in the roots. Saliara also has a high content of allelochemical compounds which causes a distinctive aroma from its leaves. The allelochemical content of both weeds can be used as active ingredients in bioherbicides and is effective in controlling other weed species. Several studies have reported that bioherbicide extracts from both weeds are effective in inhibiting weed growth so that they can be used as an alternative to herbicides. However, bioherbicide application must be carried out with the right technique and concentration so as not to interfere with and inhibit the growth of the main plant.

Abstract

Main nursery is the first step affecting oil palm’s age and productivity. Good plant growth will produce high quality and yield of oil palm. The demand of oil palm seedlings for extensification and replantation increases continuously, and therefore this need to be supported by precise fertilization programs. The objectives of this experiment were to investigate the role of organic fertilizer and to obtain the best organic-NPK fertilizer combination in increasing the effectiveness of the use of NPK fertilizer for the growth of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) seedling in the main nursery. The experiment was conducted from December 2011 to September 2012 at IPB Teaching Farm Dramaga Bogor. The treatment was arranged in a factorial randomized block design with three replications. The first factor was amount of organic fertilizer consisted of 0:6, 1:6, 2:6, and 3:6 of the soil volume (6 kg). The second factor was NPK fertilizer rates, i.e., 0.0, 127.5, 255, and 382.5 g NPK per plant. The results showed that application of organic fertilizer increased the effectiveness of NPK fertilizer and could be a substitute for NPK fertilizer in oil palm seedlings. The best combination treatment was 2:6 (organic fertilizer:top soil) and 382.5 NPK g per plant with effectiveness of 158.9, 209.1 and 170.1 % for plant height, leaf number and stem diameter, respectively. The efficiency of N, P, and K application were 56.2, 11.1, and 29.0% for the same variables, respectively. Based on morphological variables, recommended rate of an NPK compound fertilizer 15-15-15 was in the range of 396.05 g per seedling for eight months. Recommended NPK were 7.00, 12.59, 37.58, 56.41, 36.74, 87.00, 86.60, and 72.97 g per seedling for first to eighth months, respectively.Keywords: chlorophyll, fertilizer recomendation, morphological and physiological response, nutrient balance
