Abstract

This study aimed to determine the population of the pollinator insect Elaeidobius kamerunicus Faust at different altitudes, the factors influencing it, and its relationship to oil palm fruit set. The study was conducted at two locations with different altitudes: 12 meters above sea level (Tanah Itam Ulu Plantation) and 715 meters above sea level (Bah Birung Ulu Plantation), from September to November 2025. The method used was descriptive quantitative, with primary data collected through direct observation of the insect population on anthesis male flowers, and secondary data collected from weather factors (temperature, humidity, and rainfall). The results showed that the population of E. kamerunicus per hectare was higher at 12 meters above sea level, at 119,262 individuals/ha, compared to 70,692 individuals/ha at 715 meters above sea level. This difference was influenced by environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and rainfall, as well as biotic factors such as the number of male flowers blooming and the number of spikelets per bunch. Environmental conditions at lower elevations, with higher temperatures (31°C), lower humidity (79%), and lower rainfall, favor the activity and development of pollinating insect populations. Conversely, at higher elevations, with lower temperatures (22.1°C), high humidity (85%), and high rainfall, insect activity tends to be inhibited. Fruit set rates also showed a difference, reaching 87% at 12 meters above sea level and 79% at 715 meters above sea level. This indicates that the E. kamerunicus population influences the success of pollination and fruit set in oil palms. The higher the pollinating insect population, the higher the fruit set rate.

Abstract

Kesenjangan antara pemahaman teoritis dan keterampilan praktis mahasiswa dalam bidang proteksi tanaman menjadi tantangan dalam menghadapi kebutuhan industri perkebunan kelapa sawit di era Society 5.0. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan metode pembelajaran yang mampu memberikan pengalaman langsung di lapangan. Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan keterampilan praktis dan kemampuan berpikir tingkat tinggi mahasiswa melalui pembelajaran berbasis kunjungan lapangan di Kebun Sei Meranti, Kabupaten Rokan Hilir, Provinsi Riau. Metode yang digunakan adalah deskriptif dengan pendekatan kualitatif melalui kegiatan kunjungan lapangan yang melibatkan observasi, wawancara, dokumentasi, serta praktik langsung mahasiswa dalam pengelolaan hama, penggunaan alat aplikasi pestisida, dan proses panen kelapa sawit. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa memperoleh peningkatan pemahaman yang lebih komprehensif terkait kondisi nyata di lapangan serta peningkatan keterampilan praktis dalam penggunaan alat dan penerapan prosedur kerja. Selain itu, kegiatan ini juga mampu mengembangkan kemampuan berpikir tingkat tinggi mahasiswa, seperti pemecahan masalah, berpikir kritis, keterampilan investigasi, dan pengambilan keputusan. Dengan demikian, pembelajaran berbasis kunjungan lapangan menjadi metode yang efektif dalam menjembatani kesenjangan antara teori dan praktik serta mendukung kesiapan mahasiswa dalam menghadapi tuntutan industri perkebunan kelapa sawit di era Society 5.0.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of transportation and cost efficiency on the decision to use Electric Vehicles (EVs) in operational activities in Afdeling III of Sei Putih Plantation, Regional I, PTPN IV. The study used a quantitative descriptive method with the research location at Sei Putih Plantation, Regional I, PTPN IV, Serdang Bedagai Regency, North Sumatra. The study population consisted of all parties directly involved in operational transportation management, cost evaluation, and EV use, with a total of 7 people. The sampling technique used saturated sampling ( total sampling ) so that the entire population became respondents. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires, field observations, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out using quantitative descriptive analysis through the calculation of average scores, frequencies, and percentages. The results showed that the effectiveness of EV transportation obtained an average value of 4.44 which is included in the strongly agree category, indicating that EVs are able to support work mobility, increase productivity, and facilitate plantation operational activities. The cost efficiency variable obtained an average value of 3.88 which is included in the agree category, indicating that the use of EVs can provide operational cost savings and has the potential to generate long-term economic benefits. Meanwhile, the decision to use EVs received an average score of 4.69, which falls into the strongly agree category, indicating a high level of acceptance and feasibility of using EVs in plantation operations. In addition to providing operational and economic benefits, EV use also supports corporate sustainability efforts by reducing reliance on fossil fuels and implementing environmentally friendly transportation. Therefore, electric vehicles have the potential to be an effective, efficient, and sustainable means of operational transportation in the palm oil plantation sector.

Abstract

welfare in Division 3 of Sei Putih Plantation, Regional 1, PT Perkebunan Nusantara IV. The study used a quantitative approach with a survey method. The study population consisted of all 24 harvesters in Division 3 of Sei Putih Plantation. The sampling technique used saturated sampling so that the entire population became research respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires with a Likert scale, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out using simple linear regression, partial tests (t-tests), coefficient of determination (R²), and classical assumption tests including normality and heteroscedasticity tests. The results showed that the use of Electric Vehicles had a positive and significant effect on harvester work performance. The use of EVs can increase the efficiency of Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) transportation, reduce physical workload, accelerate work mobility, and help harvesters achieve work targets more optimally. In addition, the use of EVs also had a positive and significant effect on harvester welfare. Improved welfare is shown through increased work comfort, reduced risk of fatigue and injury, and the opportunity for increased income due to increased work productivity. These findings indicate that the application of modern technology in the form of Electric Vehicles can support improved workforce performance and welfare while increasing the operational effectiveness of oil palm plantations.

Abstract

Oil palm is an essential commodity in Indonesia with excellent development potential, but the long waiting time required to produce oil palm plantations is a problem. Combining with multi-purpose tree species (MPTS) plants can solve this problem. Maximizing resources efficiently and environmentally friendly, the concept of plant intercropping entrepreneurship can be used with Edamame. The intercropping of edamame plants on oil palm plants must be carried out optimally to produce good-quality fruit. So, this study was conducted on the growth response of intercropping edamame plants on oil palm plantations with the provision of biosaka. This study aimed to determine the effect of biosaka and NPK fertilizer on the growth and yield of edamame plants. Based on the research that has been done, Biosaka has the potential to increase the productivity of edamame plants. The best dose for edamame plant production is in the P3B1 treatment (NPK 30gr/polybag + 20 ml/L/Polybag) as much as 100.97 g/plant, which can increase the weight of pods/plant, pod weight, and number of pods/plant. The fastest flower emergence age is in the B3 treatment, which is 40.55 days. The study results showed that the interaction between Biosaka and NPK fertilizer had no significant effect on the variable of plant height. The use of Biosaka on edamame plant variables that are not much different from the use of NPK fertilizer can be considered.
