Abstract

Tungau kelapa Aceria guerreronis Keifer (Acari: Eriophyidae) merupakan salah satu hama yang sangat merusak pada tanaman kelapa di India dan Sri Lanka tetapi belum pernah dilaporkan menyerang tanaman kelapa di Indonesia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi penyebab kerusakan buah kelapa dan tingkat serangan hama pada pertanaman kelapa di lapangan. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Kabupaten Minahasa Utara, Kota Bitung, Provinsi Sulawesi Utara dan di Laboratorium Entomologi dan Fitopatologi, Balai Penelitian Tanaman Palma sejak bulan Oktober – Desember 2012. Pada setiap lokasi dipilih secara acak 5-10 tanaman kelapa yang sudah berproduksi dan berumur sekitar 20-40 tahun. Setiap tanaman contoh dipanjat kemudian diamati kerusakan bunga, buah dan produksi tanaman kelapa. Diambil contoh bunga dan buah terserang dan diamati di laboratorium. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hama yang merusak tanaman kelapa di Kabupaten Minahasa Utara dan Kota Bitung adalah tungau kelapa A. guerreronis. Hama ini pertama kali dilaporkan terjadi ledakan populasi di Desa Winuri, Kecamatan Likupang Timur, Kabupaten Minahasa Utara dan beberapa desa di Kota Bitung, Provinsi Sulawesi Utara, Indonesia. Contoh buah asal Kabupaten Minahasa Utara yang menunjukkan gejala serangan, ternyata persentase buah yang ditemukan tungau Aceria guerreronis bervariasi antara 50,00 – 87,67% dan di Kota Bitung 45,71 – 89,29%. Kata kunci: Kelapa, hama baru, tungau, Aceria guerreronis.ABSTRACTNew Pest of Coconut Mite Aceria guerreronis Keifer (Acari: Eriophyidae) on Coconut Plantation in North Minahasa and Bitung Regency, North SulawesiCoconut mite Aceria guerreronis Keifer (Acari: Eriophyidae) is one of the most destructive pests of coconut in India and Sri Lanka, but has not previously been reported in coconut palm in Indonesia. The objective of this study were to confirm the previous report by identifying the mite and determining the level of coconut damage in the field. The research was conducted in North Minahasa and Bitung Regencies, North Sulawesi Province, Indonesia and in the laboratory of Entomology and Phytopathology, Indonesian Palm Crops Research Institute from October to December 2012. At each location 5 to 10 mature palms of 20 to 40 years old were randomly selected. Samples of infested female flowers, and nuts were taken by climbing the palm and the level of damages were estimated in the laboratory. Coconut production of the infested palms were determined by climbing the palm and counting the nuts per bunch. The results confirmed that cocout palm in North Minahasa regency and Bitung City have been infested by coconut mite A. guerreronis. This pest was first reported in the outbreak area at Winuri Village, East Likupang District, North Minahasa regency and some villages in Bitung, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. The percentage of A. guerreronis infestation in the coconuts from North Minahasa and Bitung regencies varied between 50.00 to 87.67% and between 45.71 to 89.29, repectively.

Abstract

Salah satu kendala yang dihadapi dalam usaha peningkatan produktivitas kelapa adalah adanya serangan penyakit busuk pucuk yang disebabkan oleh jamur Phytophthora palmivora. Masalah ini masih terus berlangsung dan bahkan dilaporkan bahwa penyakit busuk pucuk telah menyerang jenis kelapa Dalam yang sebelumnya dilaporkan tahan. Pengendalian penyakit busuk pucuk sulit dilaksanakan karena tanaman terserang dapat mati atau tidak dapat disembuhkan lagi. Tindakan pencegahan dianjurkan dengan cara sanitasi tanaman dan kebun serta melakukan perlakuan dengan bahan kimia untuk tanaman disekitar tanaman sakit. Penanaman tanaman sela dengan tidak memperhatikan jenis tanaman yang merupakan inang alternatif dari P. palmivora akan mendorong meningkatnya populasi tanaman rusak di lapangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui, mengidentifikasi tanaman inang dan potensi pembentukan oospora dari beberapa isolat P. palmivora asal kelapa dan tanaman lainnya. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Laboratorium Fitopatologi dan Kebun Percobaan Mapanget Balai Penelitian Tanaman Palma pada bulan Januari - Juni 2009. Rancangan yang digunakan adalah acak lengkap dengan 8 perlakuan (jenis tanaman) dan 5 ulangan. Setiap perlakuan dilakukan inokulasi dengan 19 isolat. P. palmivora mampu menginfeksi tanaman kakao, pepaya dan lada sehingga dapat merupakan inang alternatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Isolat P. palmivora asal kelapa, kakao dan lada sangat virulen terhadap spesifik inang masing-masing dan tidak mampu menginfeksi tanaman vanili. Inokulasi silang dapat terjadi antara isolat asal kelapa dengan isolat asal kakao dan lada dengan produksi oospora yang sangat banyak, sehingga kakao dan lada tidak dianjurkan untuk menjadi tanaman sela pada kelapa di daerah endemik penyakit busuk pucuk. Kata kunci : Inang alternatif, isolat, Phytophthora palmivora, kelapa.ABSTRACTAlternate Host of Several Isolates Phytophthora palmivora Causing Coconut BudrotOne of the obstacles encountered in efforts to increase the productivity of coconut is the bud rot disease caused by the fungus Phytophthora palmivora. This issue is still continous and it is reported that the disease can attack Tall type of coconut which was previously reported resistant. Control for bud rot disease is difficult because of infected plants may die or can no longer be cured. Precautions recommended by sanitation plants and farms as well as chemicals treatment around the plants. Intercropped with alternate hosts of P. palmivora will encourage the increased population of damaged plants in the field. This study aims to determine, identify potential host plants and oospore formation of several isolates of P. palmivora coconut and other plant origin. Research conducted in the Fitopatology laboratory and in the Mapanget experimental garden of the Indonesian Palmae Research Institute in January-June 2009. The design used was completely randomized with eight treatments (plant species) and five replications. Each treatment is carried out inoculation with 19 isolates. Result show that P. palmivora can infect cocoa coconut, papaya and pepper and can be an alternative host. Isolates of P. palmivora from coconut, cocoa and pepper showed highly virulent for each specific host and is not capable of infecting vanilla plants. Cross inoculation can occur between isolates from the isolates from cocoa coconut and pepper with the production Oospores very much, so the cocoa and pepper plants are not recommended to be intercrop in the coconut in endemic area of budrot diseases.

Abstract

The awareness of the impact of agricultural development to the quality of environment has leaded the coconut cultivation technique to produce organic coconut products. There is no use of anorganic fertilizer and chemical pesticide in organic farming system. As a result, the uses of coconut product that free from any chemical substance, such as botanical pesticide, and wasted coconut parts have been intensified. Agricultural products using organic label have certain markets and consumers and high price as well. Some countries such as Pantai Gading Sri Lanka have intensively used wasted coconut parts as organic fertilizer. Organic coconut products can be obtained by applying organic coconut cultivation technique.   RINGKASAN Menyadari dampak pembangunan pertanian terhadap mutu lingkungan maka pengusahaan kelapa harus berorientasi terhadap mutu lingkungan dengan mendorong terciptannya produkproduk kelapa organik melalui teknik budidaya kelapa organik. Pertanian organik tidak menggunakan input luar berupa pupuk buatan (anorganik) dan pestisida kimia. Teknologi tersebut meliputi penggunaan produk kelapa yang berasal dari tanaman yang bebas pengaruh bahan kimia, seperti penggunaan pupuk organik, penggunanan pestisida nabati dan pengolahan limbah dari tanaman kelapa sebagai bahan organik yang nantinya akan digunakan sebagai pupuk pada tanaman kelapa. Produk pertanian yang memiliki label organik memiliki nilai jual yang tinggi serta mempunyai pasar dan konsumen tersendiri. Di beberapa negara seperti Pantai Gading dan Sri Langka pemanfaatan bagian dari limbah tanaman kelapa sudah dilaksanakan sebagai pupuk organik. Dengan menerapkan teknik budidaya kelapa organik dapat menghasilkan produk kelapa organik.

Abstract

The Rainfall Interception of Different Age of CoconutDistribution of the amount of water available in coconut plantation determined not only by supply from outside in the form of rain or irrigation, but also is determined by planting distance, planting system and age of coconut. Some researches indicates a significant correlation between the rainfall intensity and the agronomic properties of plants with the amount of trough fall, net or effective rainfall and canopy interception. Therefore, the distribution of rain in coconut palms in different ages need to be studied. The main objective of this research is to know the difference of trough fall, effective rainfall and rainfall interception in of coconut palms in different ages. The research was done observation methode the coconut palms were selected purposively based on the coconut ages (5, 20 and 50 years old). For measuring the rainfall distribution at each coconut plantation used from coconut palms.The results showed that the average trough fall of 5, 20, and 50 years old coconut palms was 53.67, 31.14, and 39.21 percent of average rainfall, respectively. Effective rainfall or net rainfall that reached the area in coconut plantations did not differ with trough fall. The average rainfall interception of canopy 5, 20, and 50 years old were coconut plantation was are respectively 46.33, 68.82, and 23.51 percent of rainfall. The relationship during rainfall intensity and trough fall and effective rainfall is positive linear. Its meaning that the higher rainfall intensity will followed by the greater of trough fall and the effective rainfall.In the otherside, the In the other side the relations between rainfall intensity and canopy interception is logarithmic. At means that each canopy in different age of coconut have a certain capacity to hold rain water. Capacity of coconut canopy 5, 20, and 50 years old to hold water of rain were 1.171 , 2.219, and 0.896 mm respectively.

Abstract

Penyakit busuk pucuk kelapa (BPK) merupakan penyakit penting pada tanaman kelapa karena menyebabkan kematian tanaman. Gejala serangan yang dimulai dari terkulainya daun tombak nampak sangat jelas bila dibandingkan dengan gejala serangan hama Brontispa longissima atau Oryctes rhinoceros. Kejadian epidemik penyakit BPK pertama kali dilaporkan terjadi di  Pulau Luzon (Filipina) tahun 1919, setelah itu mulai dilaporkan di Pantai Gading (West Afrika) tahun 1984, dan pada pertanaman kelapa PB121 di Desa Pandu, Minahasa (Sulawesi Utara) tahun 1984. Penyebab penyakit busuk pucuk kelapa adalah Phytophthora palmivora yang tergolong dalam Stramenopila atau Chromista. P. palmivora dibedakan dari cendawan terutama oleh  beberapa faktor, yaitu memiliki dua jenis flagela dan miselium yang diploid. Dalam penyebarannya, P. palmivora memiliki lima propagul, yaitu miselium, sporangium, klamidospora, zoospora dan oospora yang digunakan untuk menginfeksi tanaman kelapa. Curah hujan dan kelembaban yang tinggi mempercepat proses perkembangan penyakit di lapangan.

Abstract

Palm oil cultivated in sandy or sandy loam with aggregate not stable and easily eroded, will lack water and nutrients. To increase sandy soil aggregation, soil aggregate stabilizing agents must be added, one of which is exopolysaccharideproducing bacteria.This study aimed to explore exopolysaccharide-producing bacteria from the oil palm rhizosphere and analyze their ability to form soil aggregates. Bacterial exploration was carried out by isolating bacteria from various age groups of oil palm rhizosphere, then isolates were selected which were able to produce the best exopolysaccharide, then tested it ability in stabilizing the soil aggregate. Bacterial selection and isolation was carried out in the Soil Biology Laboratory, Department of Land, Faculty of Agriculture, Sriwijaya University. The results showed that six isolates had the potential to produce exopolysaccharide (S1A, S3A, S3B, S4A, S4B and S4C) characterized by the presence of thick slime and produce exopolysaccharide. Based on the calculation of exopolysaccharide weight, S4C isolates from oil palm rhizosphere samples over the age of 10 years were able to produce the best exopolysaccharide weight of 44.25 g mL-1. After 2 months incubation, the soil which was inoculated with S4C bacteria had very stable aggregates (excellent physical quality) which differed significantly compared to soil aggregates without bacterial inoculation (poor physical quality).It is recommended to continue the study of the ability of S4C isolates to increase aggregation and water and nutrient retention in soils with high sand content. ABSTRAKTanaman kelapa sawit yang dibudidayakan pada tanah berpasir atau lempung berpasir dengan kemantapan agregat rendah dan mudah tererosi, akan kekurangan air dan unsur hara. Untuk meningkatkan agregasi tanah berpasir, harus ditambahkan agen pemantap agregat tanah, salah satunya adalah bakteri penghasil eksopolisakarida. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi bakteri penghasil eksopolisakarida asal rizosfer kelapa sawit dan menguji kemampuannya dalam membentuk agregat tanah. Eksplorasi bakteri dilakukan dengan mengisolasi bakteri dari rizosfer kelapa sawit berbagai umur, kemudian dipilih isolat yang mampu menghasilkan eksopolisakarida terbaik, lalu menguji kemampuannya dalam memantapkan agregat tanah. Seleksi dan isolasi bakteri dilakukan di Laboratorim Biologi Tanah, Jurusan Tanah, Fakultas Pertanian, Universitas Sriwijaya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan enam isolat berpotensi menghasilkan eksopolisakarida (S1A, S3A, S3B, S4A, S4B dan S4C) ditandai dengan adanya slime tebal dan menghasilkan eksopolisakarida. Berdasarkan perhitungan bobot eksopolisakarida, isolat S4C asal sampel rizosfer kelapa sawit berumur lebih dari 10 tahun mampu menghasilkan bobot eksopolisakarida terbaik yaitu 44,25 g mL-1. Setelah diinkubasi 2 bulan, tanah yang diinokulasi bakteri S4C memiliki agregat dengan kualitas fisik sangat baik yang berbeda sangat nyata dibandingkan agregat tanah tanpa diinokulasi bakteri (kualitas fisik buruk). Disarankan untuk melanjutkan kajian kemampuan isolat S4C dalam meningkatkan agregasi serta retensi air dan hara pada tanah dengan kadar pasir yang tinggi.
