Abstract

The mangrove ecosystem on Parang Island is one of the important habitats in supporting the productivity of the surrounding waters. Therefore, an analysis of the condition of the mangroves on Parang Island is very important to understand the status and trend of changes in the mangrove ecosystem, so that appropriate conservation and management strategies can be formulated. This study aims to determine the physical-chemical parameters of the waters, analyze the density, percent cover, and status of the mangrove ecosystem in the waters of Parang Island. Mangrove data was collected using the belt transect method, while the physical and chemical parameters of the waters were measured in-situ by making observations at 4 research stations. The results showed that the average water temperature at each station ranged from 29.5°C, the average salinity was 26 ppt, the average current speed was 0.24 m/s, the average pH was 5.25, and the average clarity was 73.18%. There are 4 species of mangroves in the waters of Parang Island, namely Rhizophora apiculata, Rhizophora stylosa, Sonneratia alba, and Bruguiera gymnorhiza. The highest average relative density in the tree category is owned by Rhizophora apiculata, and the lowest is represented by Brugueira gymnorhiza. The highest sapling category is represented by Rhizophora stylosa, and the lowest by Brugueira gymnorhiza, while for the seedling category, the highest relative density is represented by Rhizophora apiculata, the lowest by Sonneratia alba. The highest average mangrove cover is owned by the Rhizophora apiculata species, and the lowest is represented by the Brugueira gymnorhiza species. The condition of the Rhizophora apiculata mangrove is in a moderate status, while Rhizophora stylosa, Sonneratia alba, and Brugueira gymnorhiza species are in a rare status.

Abstract

Developing an agroforestry system with conventional community forest plants has several obstacles, such as altitude, temperature, humidity, availability of nutrients, and light intensity, causing forest plants not to grow optimally. Agroforestry is one way to overcome problems on land, one of which needs more light intensity for the growth of forest plants. This research aims to determine optimal sunlight for developing forest plants using an agroforestry system. This research was carried out in the community forest area of Magetan Regency. The survey method used in community forest areas was by taking samples of 6 stand structure compositions and 6 plots in six villages. The parameters observed included the number of branches, crown diameter, plant type, height, and light intensity. Light intensity is measured using a lux meter placed under the canopy. The research results showed that the tree composition Albizzia+Mahagoni+Tectona+Mangifera let  of light at 12.01, while the lowest was the tree with the composition Mahagoni+Tectona+ Tamarindus sp+ Gmelina sp.

Abstract

Farm technical efficiency involves maximizing output while minimizing input costs. In Tanah Laut Regency, bitter melon production fluctuates annually due to climatic factors and inefficient input use. On average, farmers use 0.47 hectares of land, 166 grams/ha of seeds, 2,659 kg/ha of organic fertilizer, 208 kg/ha of inorganic fertilizer, 7.08 liters/ha of liquid pesticides, 7.24 kg/ha of solid pesticides, and 339 HKSP of labor. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) indicates that farmers are technically inefficient, with average technical efficiencies of 80.8% (CRS-DEA), 89.9% (VRS-DEA), and 89.8% (SE-DEA). Among the farmers, 32% operate under increasing returns to scale (IRS), 26% under constant returns to scale (CRS), and 42% under decreasing returns to scale (DRS). A logit regression model reveals that education level, farming experience, and number of family members significantly impact technical efficiency, while age, land ownership status, and off-farm income do not. To enhance efficiency, farmers should reduce input use by emulating the practices of their more efficient peers.

Abstract

To determine the composition of macrozoobenthos in the waters of the Babura river. The parameters measured are biological parameters, namely macrozoobenthos composition supported by physical and chemical parameters in the Babura river waters. The parameters measured in this research are biotic parameters, namely the type of macrozoobenthos and abiotic parameters, namely physical and chemical parameters. Physical parameters such as: temperature, turbidity, and chemical parameters such as: pH (degree of acidity), (DO), BOD, COD, and phosphate. Taking macrozoobenthos in shallow water using a quadrant and in deep water using an Eckman grab. Physical/chemical parameters are measured in situ and ex situ. Ex-situ is carried out in the BTKL laboratory. This type of research is ex-post de facto or only reveals existing data. Macrozoobenthos composition found in the Babura river: 1. There are six species of insects, namely Chironomus sp, Aeshna grandis, Dragonfiy nymph macronia, Agrion sp, Damsefly nymph, Dragonfly; 2. There are eight species of gastropods, namely: Thiara winteri, Thiara sp, Melanoides tuberculata, Melanoides rustica, Melanoides gramnifera, Brotia testudinaria, , Planorbis sp, Lymnaea rubiginosa; 3. There are two species of Hirudinea/Clitellata, namely Leeches and Glossiphoniidae; 4 There is one species of trematode, namely Pomatiopsis lapidaria Say; 5. There is one species of crustacean, namely Gammarus sp; 6. There is one species of nematode, namely the rolled worm; 7. There is one species of Oligochaeta, namely Tubifex sp; 8. There are three species of Turbilaria, namely Planaria sp, Dugesia sp, Mesostoma sp, so the macrozoobenthos composition consists of 8 classes with a total of 23 species. Physical/chemical parameters still support macrozoobenthos life in the waters of the Babura river.

Abstract

South Tapanuli is located at an altitude of 0 to 1,985 m above sea level, where almost at all levels of this altitude we will find sugar palm plants growing wild. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between slope gradient and sugar palm plant productivity in South Tapanuli Regency. The research method used was the field survey method on sugar palm stands used as sample plants with various levels of slope gradient. Furthermore, the data obtained in the field were tabulated and processed using linear regression. The results of the study showed that the slope gradient was negatively correlated with sap production, meaning that the higher the slope gradient, the lower the sap production. The highest sap production was found at an altitude of 400 - 800 meters above sea level with a slope gradient of 8 - 15% with a sap production of 14.27 liters / day.
