Abstract

Cultivation in dry land requires heavy management because it has a fairly low physical quality. The verticulture system with fertigation is an innovation in dryland cultivation that can increase pakchoi production. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of the combination of N fertilizer with media formulation and planting rows in verticulture on pakchoi in dryland. This study used an experimental method with a Split Plot Design. The main plots of media and fertilizers consisted of: a combination of 50% soil planting media: biochar + 50% compost with 1 g/L urea + 40 mL/L POC + 10 mL/L BPN; a combination of 50% soil planting media: biochar + 50% compost with 0.75 g/L urea + 30 mL/L POC + 7.5 mL/L BPN; a combination of 25% soil planting media: biochar + 75% compost with 1 g/L urea fertilizer + 40 mL/L POC + 10 mL/L BPN; a combination of 25% soil planting media: biochar + 75% compost with 0.75 g/L urea + 30 mL/L POC + 7.5 mL/L BPN. The sub-plots consist of the first row; the second row; and the third row. The results showed that the combination of N fertilizer with the media formulation and rows was able to increase the growth and yield of pakchoi plants with the best results being a combination of 25% soil planting media: biochar + 75% compost with 0.75 g/L urea + 30 mL/L POC + 7.5 mL/L BPN and the second row in verticulture using the fertigation system. Keywords: Biochar, Compost, Liquid Organic Fertilizer, Nitrogen Fixing Bacteria, Urea.

Abstract

Plants can utilize nutrients efficiently through interactions with various environmental factors. The balanced application of macronutrients is crucial for supporting optimal plant growth. This experiment aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of NPK (16-16-16) inorganic fertilizer in promoting the growth and yield of cabbage, as well as to assess its agronomic efficiency and economic feasibility. The treatments consisted of seven fertilization levels: no inorganic fertilizer (P0), reference inorganic fertilizer (P1), 0.5 dose (117 kg/ha) of test fertilizer (P2), 0.75 dose (176 kg/ha) (P3), 1.00 dose (235 kg/ha) (P4), 1.25 dose (293 kg/ha) (P5), and 1.5 dose (352 kg/ha) (P6). The results showed that the application of NPK (16-16-16) significantly improved plant growth (height and number of leaves) and cabbage yield (per plant, per plot, and per hectare) compared to the control treatment. Although no significant differences were observed among the NPK treatments, the application of half the recommended dose of NPK (16-16-16) provided the highest economic return. The recommended fertilizer dose for cabbage is 110 kg/ha, applied in two stages: 50% at one week after transplanting (WAT) and the remaining 50% at four WAT.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of fermented lime peel waste flour (FLPWF) on the digestive tract dimensions of broiler chickens. The materials used include 200 female Lohmann MB 202 broilers aged 14 days, with an average body weight of 379.73 ± 18.72 g. The feed ingredients include yellow corn, soybean meal, fish meal, rice bran, fermented lime peel waste flour, soybean oil, premix, CaCO3, D-L Methionine, and L-Lysine. The study was designed using a completely randomized design (CRD) with four levels of fermented lime peel waste flour (FLPWF) usage: 0%, 1%, 2%, and 3% in the ration. Each treatment was repeated five times. Data were analyzed for variance using the SPSS 19.0 software. The results showed that the use of FLPWF did not significantly affect the weight and length of the small intestine, as well as the weight-to-length ratio of the small intestine among treatments (P> 0.05). This study concludes that using fermented lime peel waste flour in rations at 1% to 3% does not reduce the relative weight, length, and weight: length ratio of the small intestine of broiler chickens. Keywords: Broiler, Fermented Lime Peel Waste Flour, Small Intestine

Abstract

Sourdough is a fermented mixture of water and flour. Sourdough can be used in making bread with good nutritional content. Instant yeast which is usually used for making bread has adverse effect on health if consumed directly compared to using natural yeast. However, currently sourdough is being developed as a bread developer. This research aims to analyze the effect of the concentration of natural yeast on the physical and chemical characteristics, the shelf life and sensory properties of rice bran bread. The method of this research used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with control variables of instant yeast and sourdough concentration of 10%; 20%; 30%; and 40% of the total weight of flour. The tests carried out include the physical quality of the bread, organoleptic tests and proximate content tests. Based on the results of the ANOVA test for texture and color, the same results were obtained so that the best results were determined based on the organoleptic testing, which is rice bran bread with 30% sourdough concentration. Based on proximate analysis, it shows that sourdough rice bran bread has a lower total energy content (195.51 kcal/100g), fat content (3.36%), NaCl content (1.49%), carbohydrate content (26.98%) and reducing sugar (5.39%) also has higher protein content (14.34%) than ricebran bread that uses instant yeast. Sourdough rice bran bread has a longer shelf life compared to rice bran bread using instant yeast.  Keywords: bread, physical and chemical qualities, rice bran, shelf-life, sourdough

Abstract

This researchto determine the effect of corn tumpi fermentation with the addition of bioactivators MA-11 and EM-4 as well as urea and molasses on the content of BK, PK, and SK. The study was conducted at the Laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture, Veteran Bangun Nusantara University for one month using a completely randomized design (CRD) with 3 treatments and 8 replications. The treatments were P0: 250 grams of corn tumpi + 2 grams of urea + 5 cc of molasses; P1: 250 grams of corn tumpi + 2% MA-11 + 2 grams of urea + 5 cc of molasses; P2: 250 grams of corn tumpi + 2% EM4 + 2 grams of urea + 5 cc of molasses. The results showed that the addition of MA-11 and EM-4 significantly increased the content of BK and PK, and also decreased the content of SK compared to the P0 / control treatment (P <0.01). Treatment P1 gave results that were not significantly different from treatment P2. The dry matter (DM) content in treatment P0 was 87.97%, P1: 88.65% and P2: 88.45%. Treatment P0 produced a crude protein (CP) content of 9.79%, P1: 11.37% and P2: 10.45%. The lowest crude fiber (CF) content was achieved by treatment P1 (3.70%) followed by treatment P2 (4.33%) and P0 (6.38%). The conclusion that can be drawn is that corn tumpi fermentation using MA-11 and EM4 with the addition of urea and molasses has a very significant effect on increasing CF content and decreasing CF content, but treatments P1 and P2 provide the same DM content. Bioactivator MA-11 provides a more effective effect than EM4 in increasing CF content and decreasing CF content.

Abstract

Rice is a major food commodity that consistently draws attention, particularly in efforts to increase productivity and farm income. Various initiatives have been undertaken by both the government and the private sector to boost rice productivity in order to meet food demands. One such initiative is the Corporate Farming (CF) program, an agricultural institutional model based on the principle of consolidating land owned by members of farmer groups by removing the boundaries (galengan) between rice fields. The aim of the program is to enhance productivity through the use of better technology and to achieve more effective and efficient farming practices. This study aims to examine the impact of the CF program on the productivity and income of rice farming within the Barokah Farmer Group. The research employs a descriptive-analytical method, with the t-test used as the analytical tool. Data collection was conducted through surveys, with productivity and income serving as the main variables. The results show that the average productivity and income per hectare per season before and after the implementation of the CF program were significantly different. However, the changes had a negative value, indicating that the program did not have a positive impact. The average value of rice productivity per hectare per planting season after the implementation of CF was 2.455 tons per hectare, smaller than after the implementation of CF of 3.480 tons per hectare. Rice farming income per hectare per planting season after CF was IDR5,298,994.02, which was smaller than before CF, which was IDR12,433,806.81. This outcome is attributed to a shift in farming technology from conventional to organic methods which affected both productivity and farm income before and after the implementation of the CF program

Abstract

Forage productivity strongly depends on appropriate fertilization strategies, particularly in the cultivation of Pennisetum purpureum (elephant grass), a key tropical livestock feed. This study aimed to compare the effects of three fertilizer types—goat manure compost, urea, and NPK—on the productivity of elephant grass grown on inceptisol soil. A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was employed with four treatments (no fertilizer, 2 tons/ha compost, 150 kg/ha urea, and 422 kg/ha NPK) and three replications. Observed parameters included fresh biomass yield, dry matter yield, and organic matter yield. The results indicated that NPK treatment significantly outperformed others in all parameters: fresh biomass (35.27 tons/ha), dry matter (5.88 tons/ha), and organic matter (5.35 tons/ha). Urea provided moderate results, while compost did not significantly differ from the control. These findings suggest that NPK delivers readily available macronutrients, which greatly enhance vegetative growth. Nevertheless, goat manure compost holds long-term potential to improve soil structure and fertility. The study recommends integrating organic and inorganic fertilization as a sustainable approach in tropical forage production systems. Keywords: Elephant grass, NPK fertilizer, urea, goat manure, forage productivity, organic matter, vegetative growth

Abstract

Millet seeds are one of the sources of carbohydrates that have the potential to be used as an alternative to non-rice food. However, information on its processing is still limited, another weakness is that millet seeds are difficult to grind because the skin sticks tightly. There needs to be innovation in processing, including making snack bars. Snack bars are one of the solid food preparations that have complete nutritional content and are made from a combination of several food ingredients with the help of binders. In this study, snack bars were made using millet seeds as raw materials with chocolate as a binder. This study aims to determine the effect of the length of time for boiling millet seeds on the chemical and physical characteristics of snack bar products. This study used a completely randomized design with one factor, namely the length of time for boiling millet seeds (50 minutes, 60 minutes, 70 minutes). The data obtained were analyzed using One Way Anova analysis and to determine whether there was a difference in treatment, the Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) was continued with a significance of 5%. The results of the experiment showed that the snackbar product had chemical characteristics including water content of 2.53-9.53%, ash content of 1.52-1.19%, protein content of 6.69-7.25%, fat content of 21.54-28.21%, carbohydrate content of 57.58-61.23 and the level of hardness (texture) obtained was 27.86-45.55 N.
