Abstract

This research aims to explore the application of agrotechnology innovations in improving agricultural productivity and sustainability in Nias Islands. The main challenges of the agricultural sector in this region include limited resources, climate instability and minimal access to technology. The research used a mixed approach (qualitative and quantitative) with surveys, in-depth interviews and field observations. Results show that micro-irrigation technology and waste-based organic fertilizer are the most widely adopted innovations. These technologies can increase crop productivity by up to 30%, although there are still obstacles in the adoption of advanced technologies such as satellite image-based land mapping due to limited infrastructure and farmer knowledge. The research also identified positive socio-economic impacts, including improved farmer welfare and land sustainability. In conclusion, the development of simple technologies such as micro-irrigation and organic fertilizer offers great potential to improve production efficiency, provided there is close collaboration between the government, academia and local communities. Key recommendations include improved access to technology, intensive training, and integration of local wisdom in sustainability strategies.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effects of different growing media—soil, compost, and sand—on the growth of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) plants. The experiment was conducted using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with three treatments and five replications. Growth parameters including plant height, number of leaves, and root length were observed over an eight-week period. The results indicated that the type of growing medium had a significant effect on all measured parameters. Plants grown in compost exhibited the highest average plant height and number of leaves, followed by those grown in soil. In contrast, sand produced the lowest growth performance. Although the longest root length was observed in plants grown in sand, this was likely a response to water and nutrient stress. Compost proved to be the most effective medium for supporting healthy and uniform peanut growth. These findings suggest that compost, as an organic-rich growing medium, can significantly improve peanut cultivation and serve as a sustainable option for areas with limited fertile soil.
