Abstract

Basal stem rot caused by Ganoderma boninense is the main disease of oil palm plantations. The disease decreases yield, causes plant death, shortens economic life, and accelerates replanting. The purpose of this study is to compare the development of this disease in third-generation oil palm plantations in peat soil and mineral soils. Observations were made to verify secondary census data for 4 years on affected (endemic) rotten stems. Observations were made on each of the 3 blocks for peat soil and mineral soil with palm oil planting year 2011-2012. The results showed that stem base rot develops faster with a higher severity in peat soil than yellow-red podsolic soil. The availability of organic matter in both soil and oil palm plant residues becomes an important source of nutrients for pathogenic fungi in completing the cycle of disease in plantations.

Abstract

The study aimed to explore the influence of fermentation and non-fermentation on cocoa processing (Theobroma cacao L.) on physical properties, chemical properties, fatty acid profiles and sensory properties of cococa butter. The study was conducted using an experimental method with two treatments and three replications. Analysis of cocoa butter consisted of yield, color, moisture content, free fatty acids, iod numbers, peroxide numbers, determination of fatty acid profile using GC-MS, and analysis of sensory properties. The results showed that the yield was between 20.82-21.00%. The color of fermented cocoa butter has a value of L* 17.88, a*8.70, and b*7.99 while for nonfermented cocoa butter has a value of L* 14.88, a* 8.96, and b* 6.78, water content between 0.10-0.12%, free fatty acids 0.51-0.56%, iod numbers 26.40-26.50 g I2/100g, peroxide numbers between 0.40-0.70 meq peroxide/kg fat, 190.23-191.40 mg KOH/g fat. The fatty acid profile using GC-MS showed that the dominant fatty acid constituents contained in fermented and nonfermented cocoa fats are oleic acid (29.39-29.57%), heptadecanoic acid (25.85-26.77%), and palmitic acid (21.49-21.83%). Based on sensory analysis of cocoa butter with fermented treatment is preferred because it has a more attractive color, taste, and aroma compared to nonfermented cocoa butter.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find out the effect of utilizing virgin coconut oil (VCO) and gambir (Uncaria gambir Roxb) in several combinations on the manufacture of herbal toothpaste on its characteristics and antibacterial activity. The research design used is a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatments and three repeats so that in this study 5 x 3 there were 15 combinations of treatments. The resulting research data is then analyzed using the F test and if the data differs is real then proceed with the Duncan News Multiple Range Test (DNMRT) tests to find out the 5% significance level between treatments. The determination of formulations in the manufacture of toothpaste using a concentration of 10% VCO as a toothpaste base refers to the previous research formula and the addition of 0.9%, 1.8%, 2.6%, 3.5%, and 4.3% of gambier. Based on research that has been done, it can be concluded that the addition of gambir concentrations has a real influence on the pH value and foam formation but does not affect homogeneity, hedonic values (color, aroma, taste, texture, and overall value) and the diameter of the bland zone against Streptococcus mutans bacteria. The best toothpaste preparation is treatment 3, which is the addition of 2.6% of the toothpaste base preparation with a pH value of 8.42, homogeneous, foam height of 10.70 mm, color preference (3.85), the aroma (4.25), flavor (3.30), texture (3.45), overall (3.80), strong indicator bland zone diameter (34.55 mm).

Abstract

Carassius auratus, Oreochromis aureus and Coptodon zillii are invaded fish in the Iraqi waters and are well established and considered one of the dominant species in different natural waters of the country. The stock predictions and virtual population analysis of these species in the Shatt Al-Arab River were studied from November 2015 to October 2016 using the FiSAT II software. A total of 1,511 individuals of C. auratus, 1,353 O. aureus and 1,285 C. zillii were measured to analyze the length-frequencies. The growth was positive allometric for all species. The asymptotic length (L∞) was computed as 21.2, 27.0 and 29.3 cm for C. auratus, O. aureus and C. zillii, respectively. The rates of total mortality (Z), fishing (F), natural (M) and exploitation (E) for C. auratus were 2.69, 1.09, 1.60 and 0.59, O. aureus 2.49, 1.08, 1.41 and 0.57 and C. zillii 1.51, 0.84, 0.68 and 0.45, respectively. The present exploitation rates (E) for O. aureus and C. zillii are lower than the biological target reference points for both species expressing a case of under-exploitation of both species, while C. auratus was operating nearby the exploited situation. Virtual population analysis (VPA) showed that the maximum fishing mortality for the three species occurred in the mid-lengths, with maximum values at the length of 16 cm for C. auratus and O. aureus and 15 cm for C. zillii. Therefore, the present study proposes that more yields can get through increasing the fishing activities on these invasive species, such as increasing the number of fishing boats and decreasing the mesh size to decline their abundances in the long term.

Abstract

Shallot is the one commodity vegetable featured long been cultivated by farmers in Indonesia. Shallot is also the main commodity in the prioritized development of vegetable lowlands in Indonesia in addition to the already hundreds of years cultivated, as well as is one of the sources of income of farmers and the country's economy. The study aimed to examine whether the shallot is the main commodity in the OKU District and the strategy of developing shallot planting in the OKU District. The research results show that the commodity shallot sub in OKU District with the analysis of the LQ had an index value of 0.42 = LQ < 1. Thus, shallot plantation is a sector in which its production fails to meet the needs of District OKU due to the lack of the role of the sector in the regional economy. It does not have the advantages of the comparative and categorized the non-base or not commodities is a sub-sector of the non-base following the value of LQ < 1. The government conduct management improvement coaching for farmer groups so that institutions in the downstream sector and agribusiness are strong. It is necessary to implement four development strategies to develop shallot planting as a commodity in the OKU District.
