Abstract

Farmers consider chemical fertilizer to be the only reliable source of plant nutrients, but its use decreases the physical, chemical, and biological properties of soil. Therefore, a field experiment was conducted at Jibika College of Agricultural Sciences, Ramdhuni, Sunsari, Nepal, from March 2023 to July 2023 to assess the effectiveness of different organic and inorganic manures on the growth and yield of okra. The experiment was carried out in an RCBD design with seven treatments (poultry manure, goat manure, FYM, vermicompost, pig manure, the recommended dose of fertilizers, and the control), which were replicated three times. The Arka Anamika variety of okra was used as a test crop. After analyzing the organic manure, the rate of manure application was fixed based on the nitrogen content. Data were collected on growth parameters such as days to first germination, days to first flowering, plant height, plant diameter, and number of leaves per plant. Similarly, yield parameters, including fruit length, fruit diameter, fruit weight, and yield, were measured. Analysis of variance was performed on the data via R-studio, and significant means were compared via Duncan's multiple range test. After analyzing the data, we found that most of the growth parameters, such as plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves, largest leaf length, and breadth, were prominent in poultry manure. Similarly, growth parameters for fruit weight and yield were significantly greater in poultry manure, but fruit length was greater with chemical fertilizer application. Based on the findings of the experiments, it was concluded that, compared with other types of fertilizers, poultry manure is the most appropriate fertilizer source for the optimum performance of okra, which is recommended for farmers.

Abstract

This study aims to develop sago starch-based bioplastics with the addition of modifying agents such as acetic acid, chitosan, and glycerin to improve mechanical properties, elongation, and biodegradability. The results showed that the optimal combination was reached at 4% acetic acid and 2% chitosan concentration, resulting in the highest tensile strength of 8 MPa, elongation at break of 26%, and degradation rate of 70%. At this condition, the bioplastic matrix has an optimal balance between strength, flexibility, and degradability. Increasing the acetic acid concentration to 6% caused a decrease in tensile strength to 4.2 MPa and elongation at break to 14%, indicating degradation of the matrix structure due to excess acid. Chitosan also affected the mechanical properties, where increasing its concentration from 2% to 4% tended to decrease the elongation at break. The degradation rate tended to increase with higher concentrations of acetic acid, reaching 82% at 6% acetic acid concentration with 2% chitosan, while higher concentrations of chitosan (4%) slowed down the degradation due to a denser and stronger matrix structure. Overall, the combination of sago starch, acetic acid, chitosan, and glycerin produced bioplastics that have improved mechanical properties, water resistance, and environmental friendliness, making them a potential alternative to replace conventional plastics in various industrial applications. These findings support the development of environmentally friendly materials that can reduce the negative impacts to the environment in general and in Papua as the local producer of Sago.

(Abstract) This study aims to analyze the response of different doses of NPK compound fertilizer on the growth and oil production of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). It is necessary to increase the production of sunflower oil by applying the appropriate dose of NPK fertilizer to meet the demands of the oil market. This study used a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD), with 4 experimental treatments: NPK compound fertilizer doses of 2.5 g/plant, 3.75 g/plant, 5 g/plant and 6.25 g/plant. The results showed significant positive effects of NPK fertilization on vegetative growth parameters, specifically plant height and stem diameter. However, the fertilizer treatments did not show significant impact on sunflower oil production. Based on the observed results, the 3.75 g/plant dose (D2) was the most effective NPK dose for the parameters of leaf number, flower diameter, flower weight, seed wet weight, seed dry weight.

Abstract

This trial aimed to assess the composting potential of local materials and their integration with inorganic fertilizers to enhance barley productivity. The experiment involved preparing compost and evaluating its effects on barley production at two locations over two years. Mean treatment differences were analyzed using the analysis of variance (Proc-GLM) procedure. The combined analysis over the two years in the Dahana and Lalibela areas revealed that applying the recommended blanket inorganic fertilizer resulted in the highest biomass and grain yield. However, using one tone of compost along with half of the recommended nitrogen and phosphorus also achieved comparable biomass and grain yield. Additionally, this approach improved the soil's physical and chemical properties over time. Therefore, using one ton of compost with half the recommended nitrogen and phosphorus is recommended for the Wag and Lasta highlands and similar agro-ecologies where barley is grown.

Abstract

Fresh fruits are susceptible to fungal rots, but postharvest decay control can be applied by physical, chemical, biological, and cultural techniques. Uninoculated ‘Kings’ orange (Citrus sinensis cv. Nobilis) fruits exposed to steam prior to ambient storage were analyzed for quality. Rot occurrence was between 3.3 and 13.3 % weekly increasing with storage. There was no definite trend especially after the first two weeks though initially higher on the most severely heated fruits. Penicillium digitatum, Lasiodiplodia theobromae and Aspergillus niger were associated with rots. Weekly and cumulative weight losses were highest among fruits that received the mildest heat treatment at 55 ͦ C for 25 minutes. Juice content was higher in steam treated fruits though not statistically significantly. Juice pH was more significantly affected by heating as the more severe heat treatments resulted into less acid in the first two weeks but more, later in storage. Titratable acid content was 0.48 to 0.77. In the fifth week, slightly significant reduction in titratable acid occurred in fruits that were heated at 60 ͦ C for 25 minutes compared with control, but it was more significant in comparison with juice from fruits heated at the lower temperature. There were increases in total soluble solids content with storage but insignificant differences between treatments. These results show that the presently applied steam treatments did not have significant undesirable effect on the fruit juice quality during subsequent ambient storage of fruits.

Abstract

The need of sugar cane for sugar production continues to increase yearly as human population increasing. Based on Central Bureau of Statistics, sugar cane production in Indonesia grew by 3.54% per year. However, this growth is not sufficient to meet the sugar demand of 2.70 million tons. The cause of Indonesia's low sugar production can be seen from the on-farm side, namely seed preparation. Preparing seeds using conventional methods (mules) affects the seeding time because it takes 6 months for one planting period. The experimental design was carried out using the basic pattern of a Completely Randomized Factorial Design consisting of two factors with three replications. Factor I, namely the dose of NPK inorganic fertilizer (16:16:16) and Factor II, namely the dose of Sinarbio biological fertilizer. The results of the research were (1) The interaction between the treatment of NPK fertilizer doses and biofertilizer doses on the growth of sugarcane bud chip seedlings had a significant effect on shoot length and an insignificant effect on the variables number of leaves, stem diameter, number of tillers, root volume, root wet weight and root dry weight. (2) The effect of NPK fertilizer dosage on the growth of sugarcane bud chip seedlings had no significant effect on all observed variables except root wet weight and number of tillers. (3) The effect of biofertilizer dosage on the growth of sugarcane bud chip seedlings had no significant effect on all observed variables except root volume.

Abstract

The study was conducted to identify and evaluate the effect of poisonous plants on honeybee colonies in Eastern Amhara. Two beekeeping potential zones, South Wollo and Waghimra, were selected purposively. Using a multistage sampling technique, a total of six districts and 18 local kebeles were addressed in this survey. A total of 225 sample beekeepers were selected purposively based on their experience in beekeeping, and data was collected through interviews. The result indicated that about 15.6% of the respondents had awareness about the existence of honeybee poisonous plants in their locality. According to the present finding, a total of 11 plant species were identified as poisonous plants. These include Helianthus anus, Agave spps, Aloea spps, Parthenium hysterophorus, Euphorbia tirucalli, Ranunculus mustifidus, Euphorbia spps, Guizotia scarab, Acacia saligna, Lanthana camara, and Nicotiana glauca. The effect of the poisonous plants might be either direct physical damage to honeybees or causing internal abnormality, which can lead to death. Some plants were repellent and honeybee killers, while others weakened and were responsible for the dwindling of colonies during their flowering period. The other plant species were reported to cause (vomiting, allergic reactions, headaches, diarrhea, and bad taste) to the consumers by irritating consumers' throats. The identified poisonous plant species were located abundantly in the (home garden, fence, and watershed) areas of the study area where apiaries existed. Though these plants had no value to the honeybee, beekeepers did not try to remove the plants from the area where honeybee colonies are available. Moreover, by this survey, the identified poisonous plants may or may not be poisonous plants unless checked by critical investigation of chemical analysis or by feeding of honeybees. Hence, it could be recommended that a detailed chemical analysis of these identified plants should be conducted to devise and implement appropriate control and prevention measures.

Abstract

Vitamin D deficiency and dental cavities are global issues. Thus, the purpose of the study is to investigate how dental caries in school-age children from the Peshawar district is affected by vitamin D insufficiency. The study included 1600 kids ranging in age from 4 to 15 years old. To obtain samples, a methodical random sampling procedure was used. In the current study, 1600 samples were calculated to investigate vitamin D deficiency in children enrolled in school. Men were found to have a significant percentage of vitamin D insufficiency (22.5%), but female had a relatively low ratio (12.5%). Male students made up 220 (27.5%) of the school-age population, while female students made up 100 (12.5%). Both genders had significant rates of insufficiency. Age-appropriate investigation. Male students made up 220 (27.5%) of the school-age population, while female students made up 100 (12.5%). Both genders had significant rates of inadequacy. The investigation of vitamin D deficiency according to age reveals that very low frequency was found in the low aged group (4–7 years) 80 (10%), similarly low frequency was found in the 8–11 years group 120 (15%), and very high frequency was found in the 12–15 years group 160 (20%). According to the data broken down by residency, children living in urban areas had a high frequency ratio of 160(20%) compared to 120(15%) for children living in rural areas. Long-term health effects are associated with the growing issue of vitamin D insufficiency and its relationship to school-age children's intellectual performance. The current investigation demonstrated the connection between investigation of vitamin D deficiency according to age, gender, and socioeconomic position.

Abstract

Oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) is a popular mushroom in Indonesia, with several factors affecting its yield, including seed quality, cultivation methods, and environmental conditions. The choice of planting media is crucial, as it must provide essential nutrients. Common media include straw and coffee husks, with the addition of liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) enhancing productivity. Maja fruit is particularly beneficial due to its NPK content, supporting mushroom growth. This research, conducted from February to May 2024 in Klungkung Village, Jember Regency, employed a completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications. The study tested media compositions—100% sawdust (M1), 75% sawdust and 25% straw (M2), and 75% sawdust and 25% coffee husk (M3)—alongside varying LOF concentrations: no LOF (P0), 75 ml/liter (P1), 150 ml/liter (P2), and 225 ml/liter (P3). Results indicated that the interaction between LOF concentration and media composition significantly affected the total number and weight of fruiting bodies. The best combination was P1M2 (75 ml LOF/liter with 75% sawdust + 25% straw). Media composition significantly influenced the number and weight of fruiting bodies, with M3 (75% sawdust + 25% coffee skin) recommended as the optimal choice. LOF concentration notably impacted total fruit body weight, while other parameters showed no significant differences.
