Abstract

Introduction: the expanding demand for copra (the dried flesh of a coconut), the desiccated kernel of the coconut fruit, underscores its promising potential for agroindustrial development. Effective partnership formations emerge as pivotal drivers in this context. This study aims to ascertain the most productive partnership patterns within five distinct mechanisms operating in Bulukumba, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Methods: the research site was determined using a purposive method, selecting five sub-districts prominent for coconut production, and employing the snowball sampling technique for data collection. Productivity analysis was conducted utilizing efficiency criteria and profit ratios across various partnership patterns. Results: efficiency and profit ratios were calculated for each mechanism as follows: 1) middlemen involvement yielded an efficiency of 107% and a profit ratio of 0.94; 2) engagement with local traders resulted in 77% efficiency and a profit ratio of 1.29; 3) participation in farmers' associations exhibited 36% efficiency and a profit ratio of 2.76; 4) group mechanisms demonstrated 86% efficiency and a profit ratio of 1.17; while 5) subcontract mechanisms displayed 31% efficiency and a profit ratio of 3.24. Conclusion: among the investigated mechanisms, the subcontract mechanisms emerged as the most productive partnership model, while the middlemen mechanism, non-partnership, exhibited the lowest productivity.

Abstract

Introduction: Oil palm nurseries are crucial to oil palm farming success. Thus, precise management measures from the start, such as giving nutrients and using optimal planting material, are essential. Vermicompost and guano were tested as organic fertilizers in oil palm fields to replace chemical fertilizers. This study aims to evaluate the effect of guano and vermicompost as organic fertilizers on the growth of oil palm seedlings during the pre-nursery stage. Methods: Besides the control group, the experimental treatments included 10% vermicompost, 20% vermicompost, 10% guano, and 20% guano, each replicated five times in a completely randomized design. Results: The introduction of 10% guano resulted in a significant enhancement across key growth metrics Addition of 10% guano had 20.0% more leaves, 22.5% more stem diameter, and 62.1% more shoot dry weight than the control group. This study shows that guano, which includes 19% P2O5, can boost oil palm seedling growth. The inceptisols was already rich in nutrients, thus vermicompost had no effect on it throughout the three-month testing. Since the soil conditions were good, vermicompost did not change them during the three-month trial. The correlation matrix showed a strong and constant link between seedling shoot and root fresh and dry weights. The relationship between organic fertilizers and oil palm nursery growth highlights the importance of a well-rounded plant development profile. This highlights the complex relationship between organic fertilizers and oil palm growth. Conclusion: Guano at 10% has been shown to improve oil palm seedling growth in the nursery phase, outperforming vermicompost.

Abstract

Introduction: This study aims to analyze the financial feasibility and identify the influence of total production, planting area, and farmer identity (age, education level, farming experience, number of family dependents) on the income of lowland rice farmers in Selubuk Village, Air Napal District, North Bengkulu Regency. Methods: This study used a quantitative approach with a survey method on 29 farmer respondents selected from 97 farmer families using the Slovin formula. Primary data were collected through questionnaires and interviews, while secondary data were obtained from related agencies. Data analysis included cost-revenue analysis (R/C ratio) and multiple linear regression analysis. Results: The results showed that lowland rice farming in Selubuk Village was financially feasible with an R/C ratio value of 3.39. The regression analysis results indicated that simultaneously, total production, planting area, age, farming experience, education level, and number of family dependents had a significant effect on farmer income (Sig. F = 0.000). Partially, the variables of total production, planting area, farming experience, and education level had a positive and significant effect on farmer income (p < 0.05). However, a multicollinearity problem was detected between the total production and planting area variables, which needs attention in the interpretation of their individual coefficients. The variables of age and number of family dependents did not have a significant effect on farmer income (p > 0.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, lowland rice farming in Selubuk Village is profitable, and income improvement can be focused on production factors, experience, and increasing farmer education capacity, considering the close relationship between production and land area.

Abstract

Introduction: Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is one of the horticultural plants of the fruit type which is included in the gourd tribe or Cucurbitaceae family. The problem of melon cultivation in the field is that it requires intensive maintenance, is susceptible to pests and diseases, uses less efficient nutrients, is sensitive to weeds, and has less controlled growth. The above problems can be overcome by hydroponic techniques. In hydroponic techniques, environmental resources are easier to control and the results obtained are more satisfying compared to conventional cultivation, especially in open fields. Amino acids are proteins that have been broken down through the metabolic process into small molecules. In addition to humans, plants also need amino acids to increase overall yields and quality. Methods: This study aims to determine the effect of providing the best Amino Plant concentration for the growth and production of melon plants. This study was conducted in June - October 2022 at the Smart Green House (SGH) of Jember State Polytechnic. The experimental design used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of one factor, namely the concentration of Amino Acid with 3 levels, namely P1 (4 mg/L), P2 (8 mg/L), and P3 (12 mg/L). Results: The results of the study showed that the administration of Amino Acids at a dose of 2 g/L gave results that were not significantly different (ns) in all parameters and showed that there was no effective concentration for melon growth and production in all parameters.Conclusion: Based on the results of this research, it is recommended to carry out further research by applying Amino Plant according to the guidelines on the packaging. It is necessary to calibrate the drip irrigation or fertigation system so that the nutrient flow is uniform.

Abstract

Introduction: Indonesian tuna production holds significant economic value, yet Pasuruan Regency experienced a drastic decline from 21,391 tons in 2018 to only 467 tons in 2020. This downturn is attributed to multiple factors including deteriorating seawater quality, constrained distribution channels, price volatility, and various socio-environmental challenges. Issues such as potential overfishing, reliance on middlemen, and insufficient fisheries management further compromise the industry's sustainability. Methods: This study employed the RAPFISH technique, utilizing Multidimensional Scaling (MDS), to assess the sustainability of the tuna fishery across four key dimensions: ecological, economic, social, and institutional. Primary data collection involved surveys and interviews with principal stakeholders (fishers, collectors, micro-enterprises), complemented by secondary data analysis from relevant fisheries institutions to evaluate long-term trends. Results: The assessment indicated a 'fairly sustainable' overall status for the Pasuruan tuna fishery, although revealing considerable vulnerabilities and variations among stakeholders. Key challenges identified include ongoing environmental degradation, unstable market conditions, and socio-economic dependencies limiting fishers' long-term stability. Leverage analysis pinpointed critical factors with the highest impact on sustainability, primarily social aspects , economic factors, and market responsiveness. Conclusion: The moderate sustainability level necessitates targeted strategies focused on the identified leverage points. Enhancing work safety, fostering collaboration, improving operational cost management, and increasing customer responsiveness are crucial. These targeted actions, combined with improved resource management practices and stronger institutional support, offer the most promising pathway to ensure the long-term viability and resilience of the skipjack tuna fisheries sector in Pasuruan Regency.
