Abstract

Indonesia is the second richest country in terms of biodiversity, particularly in plant species. Generally, the community utilizes plants for traditional medicinal purposes, which is the essence of the field of Ethnobotany. This research aims to identify plants with the highest Use Value (UV) and Fidelity Level (FL) in the local community for treating Diabetes Mellitus (DM). The study was conducted in the Sanggabuana Conservation Foundation area, Karawang, West Java. The methodology involved field observation, interviews, plant identification, and documentation of medicinal plants and residents during interviews. The research revealed that plants with the highest Use Value (UV) were Solanum torvum (tekokak) and Physalis angulata (ciplukan) at 5.26%. The plant with the highest Fidelity Level (FL) for treating Diabetes mellitus was Moringa oleifera (kelor) with a value of 10.53%. Moringa oleifera can be used as a medicinal plant for Diabetes mellitus due to its phytochemical content, such as flavonoids that function as antidiabetics. The parts of the moringa plant used are the leaves, and the processing method involves boiling.

Abstract

Merawangarab chicken is a local chicken produced by two local chicken strain, namely merawang and arab chickens. This study aimed to analyze the growth of crosses between sixth generation merawangarab chickens with different genetic compositions of merawang (M) and arab (A) during 12 weeks of rearing. This research used the results of crossing Arabian chickens with Merawang chickens with different genetic ratios, namely 25% M, 50% M, 62.5% M, and 75% M. Variables included feed consumption, body weight, body weight gain, and feed conversion. The results of the research showed that the different genetic composition of the sixth generation of merawangarab chickens had no effect on the growth performance of the chickens during 12 weeks of rearing except for different feed consumption. Body weight at 12 weeks of age for each type of chicken were 856.8 ± 274.2 (23% M), 858.9 ± 195.4 (50% M), 863.7 ± 156.9 (62.5% M ), and 854.0±172.9 (75% M). The growth performance of the sixth generation of merawangarab chickens was still diverse and can be selected to improve the performance of merwangarab chickens.

Abstract

Bangbayang is one of the villages located in the Situraja Subdistrict, Sumedang Regency, West Java. The natural conditions around the area are very cool with various types of plants, which also make it likely to find mushrooms, especially macro mushrooms that have the potential as food ingredients, but have not been reported. This study aims to inventory macro mushrooms with the potential as food ingredients in Bangbayang Village, Situraja Subdistrict, Sumedang Regency, West Java. The research method used is exploratory, and each sample of macro mushrooms obtained is observed based on the macroscopic characteristics of its fruiting body. The results of the study obtained a total of 12 species of macro mushrooms with the potential as food ingredients, namely; Agaricus campestris, Auricularia auricula, A. cornea, Boletus edulis, Cortinarius caperatus, Filoboletus manipularis, Lentinus sajor-caju, Lepista nuda, Russula rosea, Sarcomyxa edulis, Termitomyces clypeatus, and Tricholoma fraticum.

Abstract

The consideration of elderly welfare is paramount for achieving prosperity across all segments of society. To enhance the well-being of the elderly, the provision of green open spaces is imperative. These areas serve not only as places for relaxation and recreation but also foster a sense of togetherness and harmony in the relationship between humans and the environment. The creation of an Elderly Park aligns with these objectives, additionally serving as a locus for biodiversity conservation in rural settings. Conducted in Rahayu Village, Soko District, Tuban Regency, East Java, this research, executed in August-September 2023, employed field survey methods, encompassing interviews and non-transect vegetation analysis to catalog plant species. The primary goal of this investigation is to scrutinize plant species composition, ascertain biodiversity indices, compute estimated carbon biomass, and delineate the potential and conservation status of flora in Taman Lansia, Rahayu Village. The Elderly Park benefits 3,808 individuals from 1,298 families. The study revealed a plant composition of 61 species across 33 families, totaling 6,623 individuals. The flora biodiversity index (H') is 3.381 (High Category), and the flora species evenness index (E) is 0.8226 (High Category). The overall volume of flora carbon biomass measures 32.3741 m3, with a total biomass above the surface of 37.8453 kg. Of the identified plant species, 58 have potential applications in food and medicine, while 8 species possess LC, DD, and CD Conservation Status, necessitating preservation efforts within the Elderly Park.

Abstract

Situ Cilodong is located in Kalibaru, Cilodong, Depok. Situ Cilodong served as a beautiful, strategic area and thus served as a local water tourism. However, the presence of a human activity causes it to contain household wastes and other fillings that leak into the body of the water. The study was intended to determine the quality of the water and was held by storet methods. Storets method work by comparing data on water quality with water quality adjusted to it in order to determine water quality status. The parameters used in this study are the physical parameters in the form of temperature and brightness, also chemical in the form of pH and DO, all parameters was measure insitu in the morning. We also do identyfication of plankton. Data retrieval times occurred periodically each week of November 2021. Based on its designation, Situ Cilodong is included in class 2. The sampling station point being used is at the inlet station, center and outlet. The result of research is that the waters at Situ Cilodong was classified as a light polluted lake based on stroret's methods score on the inlet -10 station, -8 and -10 outlets. The most frequently identified type of planton species is from the phytoplanton group.
