Abstract

Rubber plant is an important industrial crop, as for economic community and a source of non-oil foreign exchange for the country.  In Indonesia, 85% rubber planting area is community rubber plantation with its productivity is still very low (700 - 900 kg ha-1 year-1), compared to its potential which can be more than 1,500 kg ha-1 year-1.  The low productivity of community rubber plantation is because of the lack of proper handling and maintenance of their plants.  Efforts is needed to improve the quality and productivity of community rubber plantation so as to compete in international trade by improvement on planting, maintenance, latex post-harvesting from the garden to the final processing stage.  This research utilizes solid waste from rubber processing factory that is local organic fertilizer (LOF) which is usually merely dumped and become source of environment contaminant.  The objective of this study was to determine the optimum dosage of rubber mill waste to the yield of rubber plants.  The research was carried out at farmer’s plantation of Tanjung Tengah village, Sub-district of Pondok Kelapa, Central Bengkulu, from May to August 2016.  The experiment was arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four replications and 6 levels of LOF as the treatments i.e. 0, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 kg tree-1 equal to 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 tons ha-1, respectively.  The results showed that the effect of several doses of organic fertilizer of rubber waste to rubber plants had no effect on latex volume, stem girth, latex weights, latex slab weight, and dry weight.  The yield of rubber even tended to decrease as the increase of dose of LOF.  This was supposedly because the rubber plant is an annual crop so takes a long time to show the response of the treatment.Keywords: rubber sap, waste, compost fertilizer

Abstract

Goat manure contains high potassium, thus it is expected to reduce  the usage of synthetic potassium fertilizer. Incubation of goat manure is needed prior to planting since the nutrients are slow release. The objective of the experiment was to find the best time application and dose of potassium on growth and yield of melon. Container experiment using polybags was set in Completely Randomized Design.  Goat manure were incorporated into soil at the time of transplanting (0 DBT), 5 days before transplanting (5 DBT), and 10 DBT. The dose of potassium was consisted of 0 kg/ha, 200 kg/ ha and 400 kg/ha. The treatments were repeated 3 times, each of which consisted of 4 plants. Growth and yield of plants showed no response to the interaction between the two factors of treatment. Single effect of time applicaton of goat manure 10 DBT affected leaf area (1619.51 cm2), fruit weight (872 g), fruit diameter (16.19 cm) and the thickness of edible fruit part (2.61 cm). The dose of potassium 400 kg/ha increased fruit sweetness to 8.20Brix.

Abstract

Combining ability is the genotype's ability to pass on the desired character to the offspring.  Combining ability information is needed to determine the crossed pairs in the formation of hybrid varieties.  The purpose of this study was to obtain information on the combining ability value of six S7 generation of inbreed maize.  The experiment was conducted in September 2015 until January 2016, at Medan Baru Experimental Station of Faculty of Agriculture, at Kandang Limun village, Muara Bangkahulu Sub-district, Bengkulu City.  The experiment was prepared in a Randomized Block Design (RCBD) with 15 corn hybrid treatments including: G1XG3, G1XG6, G3XG6, G1XG7, G3XG7, G6XG7, G1XG8, G3XG8, G6XG8, G7XG8, G1XG9, G3XG9, G6XG9, G7XG9 and G8xG9.  Each experimental unit was repeated three times obtaining 45 experimental plots.  Estimation of general combining ability (GCA) value  and specific combining ability (SCA) of each inbreed strain were conducted with Griffing model IV method.  The results showed that genotype G1 and G3 had positive GCA values for all characters except plant height.  The G7XG1 cross combination showed a positive SCA on all characters even higher in plant height and stem diameter. The G8XG6 cross combination showed high SCA values for leaf number characters, weight of husk-less cob, number of seeds per seed-line, weight of grain per ear, and grain yield per plot.Keywords: Hybrid, corn, GCA and SCA

Abstract

ABSTRACTPeanut plant production has decreased almost every year, caused by several factors such as cultivation techniques, diseases, varieties, competition with other commodities and the increasingly narrow land area. One effort to improve the yield of peanuts by optimizing ultisol land for cultivation of plants. Ultisol soil is one of acid soils, high Al content, low organic matter content, and low cation exchange capacity. Provision of fertilizer is one effort made to maximize the use of ultisol land. This study aims to determine the optimal dose of cow manure and phosphorus fertilizer for peanut plants and to determine the dose of cow manure and the appropriate dose of phosphorus fertilizer for peanut plant. The design used in this experiment was Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with two factors arranged factorially. The first factor was dosage of cow manure consisting of 4 treatment levels i.e. 0 ton ha-1, 10 ton ha-1, 20 ton ha-1 and 30 ton ha-1. The second factor is phosphorus fertilizer (SP-36) consisting of 3 levels i.e. 0 kg ha-1, 100 kg ha-1 and 200 kg ha-1. From these two factors, there were 12 treatment combinations each treatment was repeated 3 times, so that 36 experiments were obtained. The results showed that the dosage of cow manure did not significantly affect the growth and yield of peanut plants. The dosage of phosphorus fertilizer did not significantly affect all variables of observation except on seed weight. The combination of dosage of cow manure and phosphorus fertilizer has no significant effect on the growth and yield of peanut plant. Keywords: Peanut, Cow Manure, Phosphorus and Ultisol

Abstract

Salinity stress causing water deficit, nutrient deficiency, and ion imbalance for the crops has been reported to reduced crop growth, crop yield, and fruit quality in tomatoes. The main objective of this research were to determine the LC-50 of salinity, to evalute the response of six tomato genotypes to LC-50, and to study the effect of genotype and salinity stress on crop growth, crop yield, and fruit quality of tomatoes. The LC-50 of salinity was determinated by growing tomato seedlings at different level of saline solutions (0, 400, 500, 6000, 7000, 9000, 10000, 11000, and 12000 ppm of NaCl) and used the LC-50 of salinity to evaluate the salinity tolerance of six tomato genotypes. The results showed that the LC-50 of saline solution was 9000 ppm NaCl and genotype Empat G was found to be the most tolerant to salinity stress
