Abstract

The aim of this study was to observe the effect of various vegetable insecticide extracts on controlling armyworm (Spodoptera litura) on soybean plants in the laboratory. The research was conducted at the Plant Protection Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Medan Area, from November 2021 to April 2022, using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) Non Factorial, consisting of 7 treatment levels, namely: N0 = no treatment (control), N1 = Mindi leaf extract concentration 5% (50 m/l water), N2 = Mindi leaf extract 10% (100 ml.l water), N3 = Mindi leaf extract concentration 15% (150 m/l water), N4 Babadotan concentration 5 % (50 ml/l air), N5 = 10% concentration of Babadotan leaf extract (100 ml/lair), N6 = 15% concentration of Babadotan leaf extract (150 ml/lair), with repetition 3. Parameters observed for Armyworm Mortality (%), LC50, LT50, the proportion of the effectiveness of vegetable insecticides on armyworm mortality and the amount of feed consumed. The results showed that the application of vegetable insecticides had a significant and very significant effect on armyworm mortality from 4 days after application to 10 days after application with the highest mortality proportion at a concentration of 15%. The LC50 values of the plant insecticides mindi leaves and babadotan leaves were almost the same, namely 4.69 and 4.48%. The LT 50 value for a concentration of 15% showed that babadotan leaf extract was faster than mindi leaf extract, namely mindi leaves 5.145 days and babadotan leaves 4.633 days. Concentrations of 10 and 15 % of the 2 plant extracts tested showed the same effectiveness on mortality of S. litura caterpillars and higher dissolving concentrations of 5%. The amount of feed consumed was also significantly different with the highest amount of feed in the control treatment (60.75 g) followed by the treatment of mindi leaves and babadotan leaves at concentrations of 15, 10, and 5%.

Abstract

Typhonium flagelliforme or known as rat taro is a herbaceous plant that belongs to the taro tribe. The results of the phytochemical analysis of the leaves and tuber extracts of rat taro are known to contain secondary metabolite compounds belonging to the class of flavonoids, alkaloids, triterpenoids, steroids, saponins, and tannins which act as antimicrobials. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of leaf, stem and tuber extracts of rat taro (Typhonium flagelliforme (Lodd)) as a biofungicide against the cause of leaf fall (Pestalotiopsis sp.) on rubber plants (Hevea brasiliensis). Leaf samples came from rubber plants at PTPN III Karet Sei Putih, Galan District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra. Pestalotiopsis sp. was isolated from plant parts showing leaf fall symptoms. Pieces of rubber leaves infected with Pestalotiopsis sp. was grown on PDA media in a petri dish and incubated for ±7 days at room temperature 26–28oC. After incubation, microscopic identification of the conidia of the fungus was carried out. In vitro test of the inhibition power of extracts of leaves, stems and tubers of rat taro against the fungus Pestalotiopsis sp. was carried out in a petri dish using the fungus culture method. The results of the phytochemical screening showed that the leaf, stem and tuber extracts of rat taro contained chemical compounds of flavonoids, tannins, saponins, alkoloids, and steroids/triterpenoids. The results showed that the leaves, stems and tuber extracts of rat taro (T. flagelliforme L.) have potential as biofungicides, K13 treatment of tuber extract of rat taro (Typhonium flagelliforme L.) 9% was the best treatment which could inhibit the growth of Pestalotiopsis sp.

Abstract

One of the causes of the low productivity of sweet corn is decreased soil productivity due to the leaching of nutrients by rainwater, tillage, and continuous application of inorganic fertilizers. The function of mulching is to increase soil moisture, suppress weed growth, and prevent soil erosion to create optimal soil conditions for plant growth. This study aimed to determine the effect of organic mulching on soil fertility and the productivity of sweet corn (Zea mays saccharata Sturt). This study used a Split Plot Design consisting of two factors, Tillage (P) and Organic Mulch (M) which had 6 levels, M0 = No Mulch, M1 = Plastic Mulch, M2 = Rice Straw Mulch, M3 =Cocopeat Mulch, M4 = Sawdust Mulch, M5 = Rice Husk Mulch. The results show that the M2 treatment of Rice Straw Mulch tended to increase soil fertility and had a significant effect on the productivity of sweet corn.

Abstract

Coffee is one of the leading commodities in the plantation subsector in North Sumatra which has good market opportunities both domestically and abroad. Especially in the Lake Toba area, apart from the PBKo pest, it turns out that attacks by the coffee leaf sucking pest Helopeltis sp. are also felt to be very important by farmers, because the presence of Helopeltis sp. This causes the coffee leaf shoots to develop brown spots, curl and eventually dry out and die (die back). The aim of the research was to study the symptoms of attacks and the intensity of Helopeltis sp. attacks on Arabica coffee plants in the Lake Toba area, North Tapanuli Regency. This research was carried out on people's coffee plantations in North Tapanuli Regency at an altitude of 1,300 meters above sea level, from February to June 2023. On the Sigarar Utang variety Arabica coffee plantation with monoculture and polyculture planting patterns. The sample plants were determined to be 10% of the total plants at each observation location. Sampling of plant samples is determined using a zig zag line. The parameters observed were the intensity of attacks and the percentage of pest attacks. The results obtained by Helopeltis sp. sucking shoot pests have been known to attack coffee plants in North Tapanuli Regency with symptoms of attack. At the start of the attack, leaf spots are visible, brown, curly and eventually dry out, die back, then grow rosettes, namely shoots, new ones that are shortened tightly and do not develop. The intensity of attacks by Helopeltis sp. on smallholder coffee plantations in North Tapanuli Regency is quite varied, from light to heavy attacks with the intensity of shoot attacks ranging from 15.67% to 57.80%. Monoculture coffee plantations with protective plants, but no pruning, are locations with Helopeltis sp. attack levels in the heavy category with shoot attack intensity reaching 56.66%. The intercropping coffee plant cultivation system (polyculture) had a significant influence on the low intensity of Helopeltis sp. attacks, where tcount (8.921) > ttable (2.306).

Abstract

Naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and kinetin play a crucial role in plant growth but must be used in correct proportions in order to produce the best outcomes. An optimal combination of both can enhance shoot, leaf, and root growth, whereas inappropriate doses may otherwise inhibit growth due to hormonal imbalance. This study examined the effects of the interaction between NAA and kinetin on the growth of chrysanthemum plants at eight weeks of age. The research was carried out using the Completely Randomized Design (CRD) in triplicate. The medium used was MS medium, supplemented with NAA at concentrations of 0–1.5 mg/L and kinetin at concentrations of 0–3 mg/L. The results indicate that NAA and kinetin positively influenced plant growth, but only when the optimal concentrations were applied. The best combination of NAA at 1.0 mg/L (N2) and kinetin at 3.0 mg/L (K3) produced the best results in terms of height (153 mm), number of leaves (31 leaves), number of roots (26 roots), and fresh weight (5.85 g). Increasing kinetin concentrations (K0-3) generally promoted plant growth, whereas excessive NAA concentrations (> 1.0 mg/L, N3) produced the opposite effect, likely due to toxicity or hormonal imbalance. The interaction between kinetin and NAA exhibited a synergistic effect up to a certain threshold, while excessive NAA application negatively impacted on plant development.
