Abstract

Pathogen attacks can cause decreased yields, even crop failure. Proper control can suppress pathogens' development and maintain yields. The concept of integrated pest management emphasizes the application of several techniques, one of which is the use of organic products as vegetable pesticides. Chitosan is a natural product obtained from crustacean shells or skins which can be used in various fields, including agriculture. Indonesia is one of the countries producing raw products from crustacean animals (shrimp, crab, lobster, and squid). This also has an impact on the amount of shell or skin waste produced. The processing of crustacean animal skin waste into chitosan can go through several stages, namely deproteinized, demineralization, and deacetylation. Chitosan application can be done by seed treatment, foliar spraying, soil application, and post-harvest products. The mode of action of chitosan against pathogenic fungi is binding to phospholipids in the plasma membrane of fungal cells, causing changes in hyphal morphology, degrading fungal enzymes, increasing levels of phenolics, sugar, and proline, and activating antimicrobial compounds and defense-related enzymes. The modes of action against pathogenic bacteria are interfering with gene expression, causing cell lysis, destroying bacterial biofilms, increasing defense enzyme activity, inducing systemic resistance, damaging and changing cell membranes, and causing cell wall permeability. The mode of action against pathogenic viruses is to increase the expression of genes related to defense, inhibit systemic viral multiplication and hypersensitivity response. The utilization of chitosan products is very important to study, especially in suppressing the use of chemical products and maintaining ecosystem sustainability.

Abstract

The increasing demand for certified coffee has encouraged coffee exporters in Indonesia to try to help and certify coffee in their areas. Sustainable standards and certification can encourage coffee farmers to implement GAP rather than economically, socially and environmentally sustainable coffee production, the standard code coffee community (4C) certification used globally reaches 1,768,272 tons. The study aimed to determine whether farmers agreed to the implementation of 4C coffee certification in South OKU Regency. The sample was made of coffee farmers in South Ogan Komering Ulu Regency located in Pulau Beringin and Runjung Agung Districts, taken randomly and measured using a Likert scale. The study results showed that farmers agreed to implement 4C, which is in the economic, social, and environmental dimensions. Regarding environmental aspects, several important things are overlooked, especially restrictions on the use of pesticides, considering that farmers are currently accustomed to using insecticides and herbicides.

Abstract

North Sumatra's food security highly depends on rice supply from rice fields in rice-producing districts, namely Deli Serdang, Serdang Bedagai and Simalungun. The decrease in rice field area impacts the North Sumatra region's rice supply. This research aims to analyze the sustainability status and sensitive factors that cause the sustainability of rice fields based on economic, ecological, social, technological, legal, and institutional dimensions using Multi-aspect Sustainability Analysis software. The research results show that, in aggregate, the sustainability of rice fields is in the quite good category with a score of 62. Apart from the less sustainable economic aspect with a score of 59.09, there are four other aspects, such as environmental, social, infrastructure and technology, laws and regulations, and institutions, declared sustainable with a score greater than 62. The research also found 15 sensitive key factors that can improve the sustainability status of rice fields in North Sumatra to become very sustainable

Abstract

Indonesia has long been the largest coffee producer and exporter in the world. However, competing Asian countries, namely Vietnam and India, dominate the world coffee trade as ranked fourth and sixth. To face increasingly competitive market conditions, it is necessary to look at the determinants of demand for Indonesian coffee and its competition. This research provides an update using the LA/AIDS (Linear Approximate Almost Demand System) model approach to explore the factors that influence demand for coffee from Indonesia, Vietnam, and India, focusing on price elasticity and coffee expenditure elasticity in the US market. The data is time series data from 1992-2021 and the US market as the destination country. The results show that the factors influencing demand for Indonesian coffee in the US are expenditure, Indian coffee prices, GDP per capita, population, unemployment rate, and CPI. Coffee from Indonesia is sensitive to US spending changes (1,010%) and elastic. The price elasticity value for Indonesian coffee has a negative sign. The cross-price elasticity value of Indonesian coffee compared to Vietnamese coffee is complementary, whereas Vietnamese coffee to Indonesian coffee is a substitute. Meanwhile, Indonesian coffee is complementary to Indian coffee and vice versa.

Abstract

Several wheat genotypes collected by the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) in Mexico can be introduced in the tropical regions of Indonesia to support national wheat production. Currently, four genotypes originating worldwide are available for introduction: CWI 10553, CWI 17903, CWI 89948, and CWI 8124. This research aims to identify the performance and yield of these genotypes grown in a controlled environment. Wheat seeds were cultured in MS medium then transplanted into a pot filled with mixture of soil and compost. Pot cultivation was carried out at a latitude of 800 m asl. Fertilizer was applied four times: 1) 2 g of guano during transplanting; 2) 2 g of guano + 1 g of urea + 1 g of ZA + 2 g of P2O5 + 1 g of KCl  three weeks after transplanting, 3) 2 g of guano 6 weeks after planting, and 4) 1 g of urea + 1 g of ZA + 2 g of P2O5 + 1 g of KCl during grain filling. By the end of the growing season, 10 plants of CWI 10553, 2 plants of CWI 17903, 4 plants of CWI 89948, and 10 plants of CWI 8124 survived until grain production. CWI 8124 seemed to adapt well as indicated by its relatively high number of tillers, number of seeds per spike, and grain weight per plant. CWI 89948 was less adaptive as its height and productivity were relatively low. Generally speaking, two genotypes in the Semarang Regency of Central Java suggested for further study were CWI 8124 and CWI 10553.

Abstract

Conservation farming is part of the effort to minimize disturbances in agriculture such as floods, landslides, damage to soil aggregates, and chemical and biological soil properties on sloping land. One of the efforts to develop horticultural farming carried out in Sumberbrantas and Wonokerso villages is mostly carried out on sloping land so it needs attention because land is one of the important production factors in farming. This study aims to analyze the factors that influence farmers' decisions in implementing conservation farming. The research was conducted on carrot farms located in Sumberbrantas and Wonokerso villages, which were determined through a probability sampling approach using a simple random sampling technique conducted in August 2023. The research sample amounted to 59 respondents who were carrot farmers in Sumberbrantas and Wonokerso villages. The variables used include socio-demographics, agricultural extension, knowledge of the importance of land conservation, knowledge of conservation farming, and knowledge of how/techniques to carry out land conservation, with the dependent variable of conservation adoption level analyzed using path analysis to determine the factors that influence farmers in implementing conservation farming. The results showed that agricultural extension variables and conservation farming knowledge directly and significantly affect the level of conservation adoption by carrot farmers in East Java. Meanwhile, socio-demographic variables (age, formal education level, farming duration, household size, and land size) directly affect conservation farming knowledge. This research highlights several important points for agricultural development and conservation. Agricultural extension programs need to be strengthened while more targeted training programs are developed. When designing these programs, it is important to consider farmers' socio-demographic factors for more effective implementation. The research findings will contribute to efforts to support agricultural sustainability in hilly areas and can serve as material for developing more comprehensive agricultural conservation efforts.

Abstract

Eating black rice can avoid the risk, reduce insulin in the body, bind free radicals, and reduce weight. However, black rice still has disadvantages, like long life, tall stems, less resistance to pests and diseases, and low yields. Activities were carried out from August 2023 to November 2023 in Pakahan Village, Jogonalan, Klaten. The planting materials used were selected M3 mutant black rice seeds irradiated with 200 Gy gamma rays and Cempo Ireng black rice as a control plant. Planting used a randomized complete block design without replication with the pedigree selection method. The parameters measured were harvest age, plant height, productive tillers, and seed weight per plant. Descriptive analysis was used and a 5% level T test was carried out to compare the characteristics of the M4 genotype with the control (without irradiation). The research results showed that 12 individuals containing high lignin were selected which could be further developed for the next generation.

Abstract

Soil and Water Conservation (SWC) plays an important role in addressing environmental problems. This research is located in Sumber Brantas Village which is a watershed of Brantas river and has potential as farming land for horticultural crops, especially vegetables besides horticultural crops also have productivity figures that consistently always go up, agricultural land in Sumber Brantas Village is 60% mostly sloping land with steep slopes more than 30 degrees which is recommended to implement conservation farming to preserve the environment. This study aims to analyze the influence of livelihood assets on the level of SWC adoption. This research was conducted from December 2022 to February 2024 and used 86 horticulture farmers as a sample calculated by slovin formula and simple random sampling method. This research method used is Tobit regression or often referred to as censored regression; this is because the dependent variable has an upper limit and a lower limit, the software used in this study is Stata 14. The results of this study show that natural capital, social capital, financial capital and physical capital significantly influence the level of adoption of soil and water conservation farming systems.
