Abstract

Cloves are a plant that is often used as an ingredient in cooking or as an addition to cakes. The clove plant is not only used for its cloves, but its leaves can also produce great benefits. Some of the benefits of clove leaves include that they can be used for various types of treatment, including cough medicine, stomach ache medicine, and toothache medicine. The quite diverse chemical content in clove leaves provides quite open opportunities for use, one of which is being used as a raw material for producing essential oils. The aim of this research is to determine the suitability of the quality of the essential oil obtained in the form of yield, specific gravity, refractive index and solubility in 90% alcohol in accordance with the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) produced from clove leaves using the steam distillation method. The research method used in this research is an experimental method by conducting experiments in the laboratory. The treatments used were whole clove leaves (S1), clove leaves chopped at 50% (S2) and 25% (S3) of the total length of clove leaves, and crushed clove leaves (S4). The parameters of this research are yield, specific gravity, refractive index, and solubility in 90% alcohol. The results of the research showed that the best treatment was obtained from clove leaf samples chopped at 25% of the total leaf length which had the highest average yield and specific gravity, namely 2.88% and 1.061 g/ml. The refractive index value and the average solubility of clove leaf essential oil in each sample treatment met the Indonesian national standard (SNI 06-2387-2006).

Abstract

Red chili (Capsicum annuum L.) belongs to the Solanaceae family and can be cultivated in both lowland and highland areas. West Kalimantan has great potential for chili production on alluvial soils. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of cattle manure application on nutrient (N, P, K) uptake and yield of red chili. The experiment was conducted in Pontianak, West Kalimantan, using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatments and five replications, resulting in 25 experimental units. Treatments consisted of P0 (control), P1 (30 tons/ha), P2 (60 tons/ha), P3 (90 tons/ha), and P4 (120 tons/ha). Results indicated that P3 (90 tons/ha) was the most effective treatment, increasing dry weight by 10.29%, N uptake by 21.42%, P uptake by 16.66%, and K uptake by 17.61%. These findings suggest that cattle manure application at 90 tons/ha significantly enhances nutrient uptake and growth of red chili in alluvial soils.

Abstract

Oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus) require a humid environment and stable temperatures to grow optimally. One of the mushroom growing media, namely mushroom house, which need to be regulated in temperature and humidity in order to produce high-quality mushrooms. Management of environmental conditions is essential, as significant changes in temperature and humidity can inhibit mold growth or even cause disease. This study aims to monitor the internal and external conditions of the oyster mushroom growing environment using a DHT11 sensor so that ideal growth conditions can be obtained. This research was carried out through several stages, including the preparation of tools and materials, hardware design, layout arrangement, testing of temperature and air humidity control systems, and monitoring oyster mold growth. The results of the 20-day study showed that the internal temperature in oyster mushroom clusters was at the ideal temperature for oyster mushroom growth, which ranged from 25,3°C to 30,8°C, while the maximum humidity reached up to 98% at certain times. The external temperature of mushroom house is in the temperature range of 28°C to 33,5°C with a relatively lower humidity, ranging from 73,2% to 91,2%. Humidity above 90% dominates most measurements, especially in the afternoon, creating ideal conditions for mold growth. The use of the DHT11 sensor in temperature and humidity measurements in this study was effective in recording significant daily fluctuations. The resulting data shows that the sensor is able to detect changes in temperature and humidity of the kumbung chamber and the environment.

Abstract

Bioinsecticide constitutes a sustainable solution to mitigate the deleterious consequences of excessive reliance on synthetic insecticides. Bintaro (Cerbera odollam Gaertn.) is a promising candidate for bioinsecticide production due to its efficacy. However, it is imperative to note that the scale of production significantly impacts the process conditions and the quality of the resulting products. To this end, a comparative study was conducted on the manufacturing of bintaro leaf bio-insecticide on a pilot scale. The objective of this study is to ascertain the discrepancy in saponin content, water content, and toxicity of bintaro extract between laboratory and pilot scale. This study uses the reference of previous research where the best treatment of material to solvent ratio 1:10 (w/v) was obtained, namely using 15 grams of bintaro leaf material and 150 ml of solvent with 7 cycles of socletation. In the pilot scale study there was an increase in the amount of material used to 2 kg of dried bintaro leaves and 30 liters of methanol solvent. The results showed that the crude extract of bintaro leaves had a yield of 27%, saponin content of 0.63%, water content of 19.35%, and toxicity level of 45.33%.

Abstract

Writing This study aimed to determine the relationship between soil macrofauna communities and soil chemical properties in smallholder oil palm plantations. Field sampling and laboratory analyses were conducted at five observation points arranged diagonally. Soil macrofauna were collected using two methods: the pitfall trap method for surface-dwelling organisms and the monolith method for subsurface organisms. Observed parameters included population abundance, species diversity and richness, organic carbon (C-organic), total nitrogen (N-total), available phosphorus (P), and exchangeable potassium (K-dd). Data were tested for normality and linearity prior to correlation analysis. The results from the pitfall trap method showed that pygmy grasshoppers (Tetrigidae) were strongly correlated with C-organic (r = 0.757) and N-total (r = 0.677), while termites (Termitidae) also showed strong correlations with C-organic (r = 0.612) and N-total (r = 0.553). Carpenter ants (Formicidae) exhibited negative correlations with all soil nutrients, whereas black garden ants (Formicidae) showed a strong positive correlation with available P (r = 0.604). Only one species was found using the monolith method; therefore, no further analysis was conducted. Overall, macrofauna diversity and species richness showed very strong correlations with C-organic and N-total (r > 0.94), and strong correlations with K-dd (r = 0.860). These findings indicate that the availability of organic carbon, nitrogen, and potassium plays a crucial role in shaping soil macrofauna community structure in smallholder oil palm plantations.
