Abstract

Petani di Jawa pada umumnya menguasai tanah pertanian kurang dari setengah hektar, sehingga pendapatannya dari usahatani selalu kecil. Pendapatan tersebut tidak mungkin dapat digunakan untuk kebutuhan hidupnya, apalagi hidup makmur. Oleh karena itu petani dengan keluarganya berusaha mencari tambahan pendapatan dari usaha di luar sektor pertanian.Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui besarnya pendapatan keluarga petani dari usahatani dan dari luar sektor pertanian, serta proporsi pengeluaran keluarga petani untuk konsumsi, tabungan dan investasi. Penelitian menggunakan data sekunder yang berasal dari desa-desa Kecamatan Pedan Kabupaten Klaten.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pendapatan dari usaha di luar sektor pertanian lebah besar daripada dari usahatani. Pendapatan dari usahatani tidak cukup untuk memenuhi kebutuhan konsumsi rumah tangga petani dan harus ditambah dari pendapatan di luar sektor pertanian. Selain untuk memenuhi kebutuhan  konsumsi keluarga, pendapatannya juga ditabung untuk keperluan lain dan atau diinvestasikan dalam usahatani maupun usaha di luar sektor pertanian.

Abstract

P fertilization can add Cd metal content to agricultural land because the raw material for making P fertilizer comes from phosphate rock which naturally contains Cd metal. Farmers assume that by providing fertilizers with high doses can provide maximum results. Community’s knowledge of heavy metals in the environment is still low. This study aims to examine the awareness of farmers in Sragen Regency Central Java to the potential of heavy metal pollution that occurs. This research was conducted from July to December 2017. The type of this research is quantitative descriptive research using a questionnaire with the number of respondents amounting to 10% of the number of farmers, namely 30 farmers. The results show that about 61.11% of the community doesn’t understand that the presence of heavy metals in the environment can cause many problems. About 60% of the community doesn’t understand that the inorganic fertilizers commonly used by them contain heavy metals (especially Cd metal). People unaware of heavy metal pollution due to over-fertilization is 65.01%. Although the community's knowledge and awareness of heavy metals are still low, the community awareness about environmentally friendly agriculture is high (61.33%). About 53.34% of the community doesn’t know that their behavior in using inorganic fertilizers in the long term will increase the accumulation of Cd metal in agricultural land and rice plant tissue. About 70% of the community doesn’t know that agricultural land that is used continuously to plant (without interspersed with non-paddy crops) will cause land degradation.

Abstract

This research was conducted to describe condition of goat carrying capacity, with pen efficiency, tree leaves and water availibility so goat carrying capacity sustainability of Etawa Crossbreed goat at Yogyakarta can be known. It located in Nganggring, Kemiri Kebo and Sukorejo subvillage taken with purposive sampling method. Analytical tool used was table analysis. Limited labor in raising caused dominant management by head of household that make the goat cannot meet pen density standard. Tree leaves availibility in village group system is not sufficient for existed goats so farmer should look for tree leaves input from public area. Sandy land and often land slide make naturally uncontinuous water availibility. Although carrying capacity of goat in village group system pen, tree leaves, and water is not efficient, pen and tree leaves have met sustainability of Etawa crossbreed goat in village group system while water availibility have not supported sustainability.

Abstract

The objective of this research was finding the answer to comprehend the influence of herbicide kinds, tillage methods, and interaction between them on the growth and yield of mung bean (Vigna radiata L). The thinking background of this research is that mung bean is not tolerant with weed competition, meanwhile herbicide that can control weed on mung bean crop hasn’t been found yet. Sometimes tillage is need to control weed, too. But the effect of tillage on increasing the yield of mung bean hasn’t been completely recognized.The research was carried out in Karangasem village, Surakarta, in about 106 meter height sea level water, at Entisol soil. The research was designed with Randomized Completely Block Design (RCBD) that arranged according to Split Plot Design, that had 2 factors with 12 treatment combinations and every combination was replicated 4 times. The first factor was tillage method as main plot, that had 3 levels as follow: no-tillage method (P0), one time tillage method (P1), and two times tillage method (P2). The second factor was herbicide kind as sub plot, that had 4 levels as follows: control (H0), Isopropylamine Glyphosate herbicide/Roundup (H1), Oxadiazone herbicide/Ronstar 250 EC (H2), and Oxyfluorfen herbicide/Goal 2E (H3). The result was analyzed with Analysis of Variance on 1% and 5% level and then analyzed with Least Square Design (LSD) test if Anova test showed significant result.From the result of this research, we can concluded that Roundup is able to increase total mature pods and dry seed weight of mung bean, but not significantly affecting all other research variables. Goal and Ronstar can make the plant height and fresh plant biomass of mung bean lower, and not significantly affecting total mature pods, total immature pods, total unfilled pods, dry seed weight, and 100 dry seed weight of mung bean. Meanwhile Ronstar is not significantly affecting. Goal can make the dry plant biomass of mung bean lower. The tillage method treatments and interaction between tillage method and herbicide kind treatments is not significantly affecting all studied variables.
