Abstract

Quail agribusiness entrepreneurship venture is a minimal expense, exceptionally simple and high benefit business. Up till now, the investment of agribusiness in quails is not yet famous. This study aimed to examine the quail agribusiness entrepreneurship in Nigeria. Cross-sectional data were obtained from 164 quail agribusiness entrepreneurs selected through a multi-stage sampling procedure. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis. Results showed that the major motives for the agribusiness entrepreneurs' venture in quail agribusiness were that quail agribusiness and its egg production investment is profitable (23.78%). The technical information on quail production was mainly sourced from their associates/poultry-related agribusiness entrepreneurs (31.10%) and 59.76% had interactions with the agricultural extension officers while 40.85% obtained their funds to finance the quail agribusiness from their savings. The identified most prevalent constraint always faced by the quail agribusiness entrepreneurs include the inaccessibility to supply centres and markets (3.89) which necessitated the major training needs of quail meat processing and handling of quail eggs (26.22%). The study concluded that the age of the quail agribusiness entrepreneurs (r = 0.42; p≤0.05), their gross margin per production cycle (r = 0.85; p≤0.05) and their years of experience in quail agribusiness (r = 0.71; p≤0.05) are important contributors in determining the stock size of quails reared Nigeria. It was recommended that stakeholders in the quail agribusiness in Nigeria should improve their business capacity through collective capacity building/training programmes and awareness creation on production and the nutritional and medicinal value of quails.

Abstract

Socio-culture is increasingly recognized as an important part towards sustainable food production and consumption.  This evolution is reflected in the fact that socio-culture is now generally referred to as one of the main drivers of sustainable food production and consumption. This study focuses on socio-cultural aspects in relation to the food production subsystem and food consumption subsystem in highland communities in West Sinjai District, Sinjai Regency, South Sulawesi Province. Using a qualitative approach, case study method, with data collection techniques, in-depth interviews, full observation, documentation and triangulation. So that it can see in depth the socio-cultural reality of the highland community. The socio-cultural apparatus is one of the supporting factors in the realization of the sustainability of food production and consumption in highland communities. The socio-cultural apparatus is one of the supporting factors in realizing the sustainability of food production and consumption in upland communities.  The socio-cultural component in the food production of highland communities strongly emphasizes the value of togetherness, the value of mutual cooperation and religious values. These values are implemented into food production activities from land preparation to harvesting such as; "Appada Elo"; "Appatinro Bine"; "Passibaling"; "Ganre Pare Beru".  The socio-cultural component of food consumption in highland communities also emphasizes religious values (a symbol of gratitude to the creator and getting closer to their ancestors), the value of togetherness (serving food to others as a form of respect and appreciation) and prestige values (types of food such as: local varieties of brown rice). These values are wrapped in community norms that have been maintained for generations as an effort to maintain the sustainability of community food production and consumption

Abstract

This study examines the contestation among actors responding to government policies in broiler farming. The research method employed is qualitative. A comprehensive investigation into each actor’s characteristics allows for a thorough understanding of unfolding contestation. The study took place in Blitar, East Java, Indonesia. The results indicate three key actors: the integrator farm, the independent farm, and the family farm. An integrator functions as an investor; while an independent consists of breeders with land, resources, and labour. Family farmers are operated by individuals with limited production capacities.  The government, aiming to ensure a stable supply of livestock for domestic consumption, utilizes its legislative authority to facilitate investment prospects in Indonesia.  Integrator farmers seize this opportunity to dominate broiler arming, compelling their actors to align with their interests. Independent farmers safeguard their interests through collaborative partnerships, whereas family farmers can only express their discontent with the government through protests.

Abstract

This study aims to calculate the production and income derived from farming several sweet potato varieties. The research was conducted in Bersehati Village, Tanah Miring District, Merauke Regency. The Research location was chosen purposively with the consideration that Kampung Bersehati is the largest sweet potato producing area in Merauke Regency. In total there are 157 sweet potato farmer populations, the number of samples taken was 20% of the population or 31 farmers.  Data analysis was conducted using the concept of cost, revenue, farm income, feasibility and analysis of the average difference test. The results showed that the yield per growing season of the Cakar variety (1,603 kg) was higher than the Local variety (1,599 kg). However, farming the Local variety yielded a higher income (IDR 4,672,140.96) than the Cakar variety (IDR 4,475,777.98) at a selling price of IDR 6,000 per kg. The feasibility analysis showed that both the Local variety (R/C Ratio 1.95) and the Cakar variety (1.87) are worth trying. The difference test analysis revealed significant differences in production and income between the two varieties.

Abstract

The low uptake of N and P nutrients by maize plants can be caused by the low availability or levels of N and P nutrients in the soil used as the planting medium. The Alfisol soil used in the study had N-total levels of 0.15% (low) and P2O5 of 12.76 ppm (medium). The addition of phosphate solubilizing microbes, pelleted organic fertilizer, and inorganic fertilizer can increase the availability of N and P nutrients in the soil, so that plant uptake of N and P nutrients can also increase. This study aims to determine the effect of a combination of phosphate-solubilizing microbes (PSM), pelleted organic fertilizer, and inorganic fertilizer on the nutrient uptake of maize plants. This research was conducted at the Experimental Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, Hasanuddin University and plant samples were analyzed at Hasanuddin University's Soil Fertility Chemistry Laboratory, Department of Soil Science, Faculty of Agriculture. This study used a Randomised Group Design (RGD). The treatments consisted of a combination of M0 = without phosphate solubilizing microbes; M1 = addition of phosphate solubilizing microbes; B0 = without pelleted organic fertilizer; B1 = pelleted organic fertilizer dose of 5 tonnes/ha; B2 = pelleted organic fertilizer dose of 10 tonnes/ha; A0 = without inorganic fertilizer; A1 = inorganic fertilizer 50% of the recommended dose. The results showed that the M0B2A0 treatment produced plants with the highest level of N nutrient uptake, which was 633.33% higher than the M0B0A0 treatment. In comparison, the M1B2A1 treatment had plants with the highest level of P nutrient uptake, which was 933.33% higher than the M0B0A0 treatment.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of a concentration of 2,4-D added to the Murhasige and Skoog (MS) basic media on porang callus induction and the effect on various explant sources. The study was conducted in the form of experiments in the Laboratory of Bioscience and Plant Reproduction Biotechnology, Department of Agriculture, Faculty of Agriculture, Hasanuddin University from August to December 2021. The experiments were based on a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) pattern arranged in a factorial way with two treatment factors. The first factor was the concentration of 2,4-D consisting of five levels of treatment: without 2,4-D (0.0 mg L-1), 0.5 mg L-1, 1.0 mg L-1, 1.5 mg L-1, and 2.0 mg L-1. The second factor was the source of explants consisting of three levels: the petiole, leaf midrib, and leaf blade. The results after five months showed that the interaction between the concentration of 2.0 mg L-1 2,4-D with the petiole explants had the best effect on callus induction time (12.25 days) and callus weight (2.97 g). The concentration of 2.0 mg L-1 2,4-D had the best influence on the callus induction percentage (83.33%), and petiole-derived explants had the best influence on the callus induction percentage (91.67%). Administration of 2,4-D at a concentration of 2.0 mg L-1 and the petiole-derived explant gave the best results in this study; therefore, it is expected to be applied to the development of porang plant seeds in vitro.

Abstract

Efficiency and effectiveness in controlling crossbreeding are pivotal in yielding superior hybrid varieties with desired traits such as genetic purity and high productivity. Cytoplasmic Male Sterile (CMS) is a crucial component in hybrid variety assembly. This study aims to identify the genotypes that can induce male sterile lines based on genetic diversity and the level of pollen sterility in the prospective male sterile genotypes tested, consisting of seventeen genotypes. The research findings revealed that the genetic diversity among the seventeen observed male-sterile candidate genotypes tends to vary in quantitative traits. Among the quantitative traits, JHD14 exhibited indications of being a male sterility inducer compared to the other genotypes observed, demonstrating a value of 0.00 g in terms of pollen weight. This is further substantiated by the microscopic examination of JHD14 pollen grains, which displayed 100% sterility.
