Abstract

ABSTRACCommunity forests around Masarang and Pinaras are dominated by stands of E. ovalis (Miq.) Dandy. Theincrement is usually used to express the of increase of stand volume in a specified time unit. This study is aimedto determine the average annual increment of E. ovalis in community forests of Masarang and Pinaras. Thisresearch was conducted in the villages of Masarang and Pinaras. The method used was the comparison of twoindependent samples in two different locations with three replications. The method used was the diameter andheight was measured on 198 E. ovalis trees in Pinaras and 251 E. ovalis trees in Masarang. The results of theanalysis concluded that there was no difference between the increments for E. ovalis in Masarang and Pinaras.Soil fertility, soil texture, and altitude in the 2 locations did not become prohibitive factors for the growth of E.ovalis.Keyword: E. ovalis, Increament, Pinaras, Masarang

Abstract

ABSTRACTAgroforestry systems whICH are applied to each region may differ, these differences are influenced by the condition of land, social and cultural. This study aimed to describe the agroforestry systems in Tolok Satu Kecamatan Tompaso Kabupaten Minahasa. The researth was conducted in three weeks starting on August 26, 2013 until 14 September 2013. Farmers who apply agroforestry systems were interviewed based on questionnaire. Their farm lands were surveyed then. The results of this study, there are two patterns of agroforestry systems adopted by the farmers whics are agrisilvikultur and agrosilvopastoral pattern. Forestry trees (cempaka) and agricultural crops (corn, beans, bananas, tomatoes, kidney beans, sweet potatoes, cassava, cloves and coconut),were planted with regular spacing. Livestock kept by farmers such as cows and horses, were tied to the land where the agroforestry system is applied during the day.Key words : Agroforestry System

ABSTRACTInfluence fertilization of NPK to growth of Jabon Putih seeds Anthocephalus cadamba (Roxb.) Miq.This research studied the effect of NPK (15 : 15 : 15) on seedlings growth of Anthocephalus cadamba. The research used Randomized Block Design (RBD) with five treatments and five replications. Treatment A as a control, treatment B 0,25 g NPK/plan, treatment C 0,50 g NPK/plant, treatment D 0,75 g NPK/plant and treatmen E 1 g NPK/plant, given every two weeks for two months. Plant media of this research was soil, sand and chicken manure with ratio7 : 2 : 1 based on volume. The measured variables were crop height, crop bar diameter and the number of leaf. The results showed that the applications of NPK fertilizer on Jabon putih seedling gave significantly different result to the crop height accretion at firstand second weeks and for the crop bar diameter at seventh week and eighth week, while the number of seedling leaf of Jabon Putih was not significantly different. The growth of crop was better in treatment C comparing to the other treatments.Keyword : Jabon Putih, NPK 15 : 15 : 15

ABSTRACT VEGETATION ANALYSIS IN AGROWISATA AREA OF MOUN TUMPA  This study was to determine the composition and structure of plants in the Region Agro Mount Tumpa. The methods used sguare line with a line. Plot size of 2 m × 2 m for seedling phase, 5 m × 5 m for phase stake, 10 m × 10 m to 20 m mast and phase × 20 m for phase tree. There are 15 plots in three transect observations were cut lengthwise contour lines, the distance between plots of 50 m, and the distance between lines of 100 m. Observation data trunk diameter of 130 cm height from ground level, the name of plant species and number of individuals per species. To obtain the importance value index is calculated density, dominance, and frequency. Based on the results, 40 species and 29 families of trees in the phase of the tree, tree, saplings and seedlings. Of the highest importance value index of tree species Spathodea campanulata phase with (IVI 59,00%), in the phase of pole types which have the highest importance value index Artocarpus altilis types have the (IVI 44.52%), type that have the highest importance value index of phase stake is Piper aduncum with (IVI 37.17%). As for the types that have the highest IVI seedling phase is kind Adenostoma viscosum with (IVI 76.19%).  Keywords: Important Value Index, Analysis Vegetation Agrowista Mountain Region Tumpa.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Marawas is one of the most important watershed in  Tondano watershed in Minahasa. The erosion that happens at  Marawas watershed caused by land change and human activity. This study helps us to analyze the erosion risk levels  in  Marawas watershed. Field survey was to document land cover, slope length, slope depth. The erosion risk Level were determined by USLE (R,K,L,S,CP). The study shows that the erosion risk levels of Marawas watershed are very light (62.5924 ha, 51,09%), light (0.7397 ha, 0,6%), middle (0.7397 ha, 0,6%), heavy (0 ha 0%) and very heavy (0,2792 ha, 0,23%). Marawas watershed hasthe average of erosion’s rate of 49.45 tonnes/ha/year or light level of Light erosion risk.

Abstract

ABSTRACT  This research studies the effects of compost fertilizer on the growth of red jabon (Anthocepalus macrophyllus) seedling. The method used is completely randomized design, with 5 treatments and 5 replications. No (zero) compost was applied on treatment A as a control, 25 grams of compost on treatment B, 50 grams of compost on treatment C, 75 grams of compost on treatment D, and 100 grams of compost on treatment E. Based on recommendation, growth media used in this research was a mix of soil and sand, with a ratio of 3:2. Variables observed were increase in plant height, increase in stem diameter, increase in number of leaves, and the dry weight of shoot. Results showed that the application of compost fertilizer to red jabon seedling made significant differences in the increase of plant height and stem diameter. Key words: red jabon seedling (Anthocephalus macrophyllus) compost fertilizer  zeorganik

Abstract

ABSTRACT This research took place at four villages (Poopoh, Teling, Kumu, and Pinasungkulan) in the District of Tombariri from May to June 2015.  It was aimed to determine the diversity of mangrove forest trees using explorative method for species identification as well as their morphology structure.  Vegetative features include roots, bark, leaf, flower, fruit, and colour. In addition to that, community use of the mangrove was also studied.  Results show that 8 species were found and belonged to 5 families (Avicenniaceae, Rhizophoraceae, Arecaceae, Sonneratiaceae, and Pandanaceae).  From Rhizophoraceae there are 3 species (Bruguiera clyndrica, Rhizophora stylosa, Rhizophora apiculate); from Sonneratiaceae there are 2 species (Sonneratia alba and Sonneratia ovata); followed by 1 species each for the rest of the families, that is, Avicennia alba from Avicenniaceae, Nypa fruticans from Arecaceae, and Pandanus sp. from Pandanaceae. Keywords: Tombariri, mangrove, Avicenniaceae, Rhizophoraceae, Arecaceae, Sonneratiaceae, Pandanaceae
