Abstract

Seed of Caesalpinia bonduc L. is difficult to germinate due to the thick and hard seed coat. The research aims to evaluate various methods for breaking dormancy of C. bonduc seed. This study was conducted from December to January 2016 The way to break the dormancy were arranged in Completely Randomized Design. Eleven methods to solve the seed dormancy of C. bonduc were compared. The ways to break the dormancy were soaking in water with different temperatures. The temperatures were 30C for 0 hours, 5 hours, 10 hours, and 15 hours. Other techniques to break the dormancy were soaking in hot water at 10000C for 5 hours, 10 hours, and 15 hours. Warm stratification with 100% air humidity (RH) at 40C for five days, ten days and 15 days also included as treatments. The last method was seed piercing with a needle. The variables observed in this study were germination capacity, germination rate, epicotyl length, plant height, and root length. The results of this study showed that the 11 methods of breaking seed dorman cy significantly affected germination capacity, germination rate, emerging epicotyl, and plant height. Seed piercing classified as the most efficient method as indicated by the value of 100% in germination capacity, 1.43 in germination rate, 13.64 cm in plant height, and 6.16 cm in root length.0

Abstract

Oil Palm has a strategic role in the Indonesian economy. The use of anorganic fertilizers in the cultivation of Oil Palm is to add nutrients to optimize the growth and yield of plants. The use of anorganic fertilizers significantly  increase crop production, but the use of anorganic fertilizers in a relatively long time period has  negative impact on soil conditions. The use of organic fertilizers can be an alternative in reducing the negative impact of the use of anorganic fertilizers. Compost of empty fruit bunch (EFB) of oil palm has the potential to substitute most of the nutrients needed by plants. This study aimed to determine the effect of local organic fertilizers on yields of oil palm. The research was implemented from January 2016 until March 2016, in the oil palm plantation area of PT Bio Nusantara Bengkulu, Village of Pondok Kelapa, Central Bengkulu Regency, Bengkulu.  Dose of EFB was as treatment in this study, consisted of  control,  4 kg EFB /plant, 8 kg /plant,  12 kg /plant, 16 kg /plant. The treatment was repeated three times with 10 plants per treatment unit in order to obtain 150 samples. The results showed that the dose 21.03 kg EFB can improve the greenish of leaves with the result of 78.65. Dose of EFB 15.38 kg/plant was able to increase the weight of loose/detached fruit to 12.22 grams. The  10.5 kg mesocarp thickness reached 0.96 cm when the plant was treated with EFB 10.5 kg/plant.Keywords: compost, empty fruit bunch, oil palm, organic fertilizer, yield

The design used in this study was Completely Randomized Block Design (RAKL) using a single treatment factor of 11 soybean genotypes consisting of 9 lines of expectation (G4AB, G2BB, G1DB, 13 ED, 14 DD, 19 BE, 25 EC, G511H / Anj-2-10, and G511H / Anj-1-3) and 2 varieties of comparison (Tanggamus and Demas 1), each treatment was repeated four times to obtain 44 experimental units. Variables that significantly affect the F test at 5% level, followed by cluster analysis of Scott-Knott at 5% level. Of the 9 lines of expectation tested only 13 ED lines, 14 DD, and 25 EC had a number of comparable books comparable to the comparison varieties (Tanggamus and Demas 1). The comparative varieties had moderate flowering, deep harvest age, highest plant height, number of productive branches and the largest number of fertile books compared to the 9 tested lines. Density 13 ED, 14 DD, 25 EC has a number of pods of content comparable to the comparison varieties. The G511H / Anj-2-10 strain has more number of seeds per pod than the comparable strain / variety tested. The ED 13 line has a seed weight per plot proportional to the comparison varieties (Tanggamus and Demas 1), but is higher than the expected line of test. While the 19 BE strain has a weight of 100 seeds higher than the other strains / varieties tested

Abstract

Crocidolomia binotalis Zell is an important pest in Brassicaceae vegetable crops. Vegetable insecticide is one potential alternative to controlling the pest. This study aims to determine the application time of noni fruit extract and to determine the effective concentration of noni fruit extract as a vegetable insecticide in controlling C. binotalis larva on cabbage plants in the field. this study used a Completely Randomized Design (RAL) consisting of two treatment factors and four replications. The first factor is the concentration of extract (5 ppm, 10 ppm, 15 ppm and 20 ppm) and the second factor is the time of application of vegetable pesticide before the pest is invested (W1) and after the pest is invested (W2). So there are 32 units of experiments and 4 units of experiments added as control. The results showed, noni fruit extract had no significant effect on mortality of C. binotalis larvae. The highest mortality rate is at 100% K2 (10ppm) concentration at the time of application before the pest is invested (W1). The interaction had significant effect on the wet weight of the plant canopy but had no significant effect on the mortality of the pest, the intensity of the attack, the percentage of pupa formed, and the present percentage of imago.

Abstract

ABSTRACTFinding the appropriate method of fertilizer application to simultaneously enhance farm productivity and ensure ecosystem sustainability has been receiving a lot of attention. A field experiment was carried in the Research Plot Agriculture Faculty Bengkulu University Campus Indonesia in 2017. The purpose of this study was (1) to assess the significant effects of inorganic N fertilizer (IF) substitution with bio-fortified compost (BC) under equal N conditions on growth, N accumulation, and yield of sweet corn, and (2) to determine the appropriate level to which inorganic N fertilizer could be reduced and equivalently replaced by bio-fortified compost to promote sweet corn growth and yield. The treatments consisted of six different proportions of inorganic N fertilizer (IF) substitution with bio-fortified compost (BC). Each treatment was designed on the basis of equal amount of total N input from a combination of both fertilizers (138 kg N ha-1).  They were arranged in a randomized block design with 3 replications. They included (1) 100% IF plus 0% BC, (2) 75% IF plus 25% BC, (3) 50% IF plus 50% BC, (4) 25% IF plus 75%, (5) 0% IF plus 100% BC, and (6) no IF and no BC. The results showed that the increasing proportion of IF replaced by BC resulted in an increase for all variables (except for plant height) but they decreased when 100% IF substitution with 100% BC was applied. Among the partial substitution treatments, 50% IF plus 50% BC consistently produced the best growth, N accumulation, and yield increase. Treatments of 50% IF plus 50% BC and 25% IF plus 75% BC produced the highest green cob weight with husk per plot (10.74 – 10.84 kg plot-1), which was 16% to 19% higher than treatment of 100% IF plus % BC. The three partial substitution treatments produced crop yield components as good as treatment of 100% IF plus 0% BC. Treatment of 0% IF plus 100% BC reduced plant growth, N accumulation, and crop yield and its components. The appropriate level to which IF could be reduced and equivalently replaced by BC was at the range of 25% to 75%. Hence, a suitable replacement of inorganic N fertilizer with bio-fortified compost is considered a reasoned way to simultaneously increase crop yield and reduce environmental degradation.Keywords: organic fertilizer, chemical fertilizer, bio-fortification, chemical fertilizer substitution, bio-fortified compost

Abstract

Rimau Gerga Lebong (RGL) variety is one of the main orange fruit commodities in Lebong Regency of Bengkulu Province, which has a competitive advantage and has good market potential. However, high number of seed characteristic makes this orange fruit becomes less popular.  Triploid genotype formation through endosperm culture in vitro is an alternative solution to develop seedless orange fruit.  The objective of this study was to determine the best composition medium for callus induction of endosperm of RGL orange seeds as the foremost step of in vitro triploid plant development. The research was conducted from August  2017  until  December  2018 at the Plant  Tissue Culture Laboratory, Department of Agronomy, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Bengkulu.  The  experiment  was  arranged  in  a  completely randomized design, with eight treatment combinations i.e. G1 (MT + 5 ppm BAP + 2 ppm 2,4-D), G2 (MT + 5 ppm BAP + 2 ppm 2,4-D + 500 ppm CH), G3 (MT + 5 ppm BAP + 2 ppm 2,4-D + 500 ppm + 0.5 ppm Kinetin), G4 (MT + 5 ppm BAP + 2 ppm 2,4-D + 500 ppm CH + 0.5 ppm to 500 ppm Kinetin + ME) , G5 (MS + 5 ppm BAP + 2 ppm 2,4-D), G6 (MS + 5 ppm BAP + 2 ppm 2,4-D + 500 ppm CH), G7 (MS + 5 ppm BAP + 2 ppm 2,4- D + 500 ppm CH + 0.5 ppm Kinetin), G8 (MS + 5 ppm BAP + 2 ppm 2,4-D + 500 ppm CH + 0.5 ppm to 500 ppm Kinetin + ME), with three replications. The experimental unit was five culture bottles containing three explants per bottle.  Observations were conducted on days to callus formation, rate of callus formation, callus weight, callus diameter, callus color and texture.  The results showed that media of MS + 5 ppm BAP + 2 ppm 2,4-D + 500 ppm CH was the best media for callus induction, and MT + 5 ppm BAP + 2 ppm 2,4-D + 500 ppm CH was the best media for callus development.Keyword: RGL citrus, calli, endosperm, kinetin, BAP

Abstract

Glyphosate is a widely used herbicide for minimum tillage technology because it effectively kills broadleaf and grass weeds. Mixing glyphosate with other herbicide that has a different mechanism, such as 2,4-D may increase control efficacy and prevent the evolved of resistant weeds.  Research was conducted to obtain the effective dose of glyphosate and 2,4-D mixtures and to evaluate the effect of the herbicide mixtures on the growth rate and yield of sweet corn. Depression on summed dominance ratios (SDR) and increased number of dominant weeds were observed after the application of glyphosate and 2,4-d mixtures. The interaction of the herbicide mixtures was observed optimum at the doses of glyphosate and 2,4-D of 1.94 and 1.5 L ha-1, respectively, with maximum of net assimilation rates (NAR) at 4-6 weeks after planting of 0.0003617 g cm-2 days-1.  Plant growth rates (PGR) and NAR were observed maximum by a single treatment of glyphosate at a dose of 1.5 L ha-1 which were 2.23614 and 2.23607813 g cm-2 days-1, respectively.  Yield of sweet corn observed as fresh-weight of cobs was found maximum of 129.41 g with a single treatment of glyphosate at 2,018 L ha-1.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Pakcoy (Brassica rapa L.) is a type of vegetable crop and one of the short-lived species needed by the body because it contains good nutrition. In order to meet the needs of pakcoy, it must also be balanced with the production level. One of the efforts to increase the production of pakcoy is the nutrient application of liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) from jiringa hulls. LOF can be absorbed by plants quickly rather than solid organic fertilizers and it does not damage soil structures such as synthetic chemical fertilizers. This study aimed to determine the optimum concentration of LOF on growth and production of pakcoy. The research took place at the Green House Laboratory of Agronomy, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Bengkulu. This research used Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with one treatment factor and repeated 5 times, each treatment unit included 3 potted plants. Treatment of LOF concentration, consisted of 5 levels: T0: LOF 0% (Control), T1: LOF 25%, T2: LOF 50%, T3: LOF 75%, T4: LOF 100%. The concentration of L0F 100% produce the best growth and production of pakcoy and has longest canopy (22,18 cm), highest number of leaf (15,86 strands), widest leaf width (34,26 cm2), highest fresh canopy weight (68,85 gram), highest total dry weight (6.92 grams), highest greenish leaves (48.48), and highest dried root weight (1.72 grams). Keywords: LOF, Jiringa Hulls, Pakcoy, Concentration
