Abstract

AbstractEfforts of restoration of degraded tropical peat swamp forest were facing constraints due to the low available nutrient level of peat. The transplanted peat swamp forest species seedlings experienced low survival rate and poor growth performance. This study aimed to demonstrate the response of ten tropical peat swamp forest species seedlings whether climax and pioneer species to macro-nutrients addition in the nursery. The growth performance of climax and pioneer tropical peat swamp species seedlings was recorded following addition of macro nutrients of Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus(P), Potassium(K) and Dolomitic limestone (CaMg). The result showed that Alstonia spatulata and Parartocarpus venenosus showed positive growth response following macro nutrients addition. This study concluded that tropical peat swamp pioneer species has lower necessity for macro-nutrients addition than tropical peat swamp climax species.

Abstract

This research aims to get both the active chemical compounds of galam’swood vinegar which functions as antifungi and anti-termite usage and the process or factors influence it. Another purpose of the research is to find how effective the active compounds are toward wood destroyer organisms, either termite or fungus. Anti-termite assay is done by using a method of the mortal percentage of termites in sort of Cryptotermes cynocephalus Light and a method of growth inhibition of Schizopyllum commune fungus by wood vinegar for antifungi assay. To find the influence within the treatment of wood vinegar production process (the raw material condition and distillation), wood vinegar concentration level concerning with the active compounds of antifungi and anti-termite, each of treatments is analyzed using statistical analysis with CRD. Wood vinegar is a natural organic liquid resulting from the condensation of smoke in the process of making charcoal. Generally, the result shows that galam’s wood vinegar have a potential used as natural wood preservative material. For this kind of utility, the vinegar can either be spontaneously used or be reproduced by a distillation process with 50% concentration. Galam’swood vinegar contains some components, namely phenolic, acid and carbonyl.

Abstract

Indonesia is rich of medicinal plants, one of which is Tabat Barito (Ficusdeltoidea Jack). The utilization oftabat barito is mainly for women's health and until now its use continues to increase, especially fortraditional medicines, but efforts for cultivation have not been much done. The first step for cultivation is tounderstand the potential and ecological habitat of this plant. This research was conducted in SouthKalimantan, with three villages as the object based on a survey conducted earlier, i.e. the Village of Hamakin Hulu Sungai Selatan District and the Village of Auh and Sungsum in Balangan District. Data wascollected using a survey method to create a transect in the areas where Tabat Barito isfound. The resultsshowed Tabat Barito potential in the two districts is quite rare, between 35 -50 clumps/ha. Tabat Barito wasfound in open areas in natural forest with elevation of 200-350 m above sea level, humidity of 36-54%, airtemperature of 38-43 °C, soil temperature of 25 oC. vegetation found to be associated with Tabat Barito inHamak Village is sasirihan (Ficussp.) and beringin (Ficusbenyamina), while in Auh and Sangsum Village ismali-mali (Leeaindica), beringin (F. benyamina), and jambun (Eugenia sp.). The genus of Ficus is thedominant vegetation and significant association with Tabat Barito. The diversity of vegetation, in the HamakVillage is 1.63 higher than Auh and Sungsum Village of 1.16. The common species found in the two districtsthat have Tabat Barito of 28.57%.

Abstract

Paddy (Oriza sativa L.) and Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jack) are two important crops and are potential toproduce wastes which may lead to huge green house gas emissions if they are not managed properly. Openburning and conventional composting are commonly practiced by farmers and/or planters to managedagricultural wastes in Indonesia. A series of research has been carried out to elucidate (1) the reductions ofCH4 and N2O due to incertion of a catalitic converter on burning kiln, (2) green house gas emissions fromdifferent composting techniques of oil palm field wastes, and (3) the effects of oil palm field wastes compostapplication in oil palm fields and of paddy field wastes biochar in integrated oil palm-paddy fields. Theresults showed that CH4 and N2O emissions from paddy field wastes (i.e., rice straw or rice husk) was lowerthan that from oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB). Furthermore, insertion of a catalytic converter intopyrolysis installation reduced the CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions from paddy field wastes as much as 14.5,17.8 and 11.1%, respectively. Incorporation of EFB compost did not increase greenhouse gas emission fromoil palm fields. These results suggest that biochar and EFB compost can be practiced to manage agriculturalwastes in Indonesia.

Abstract

A simple procedure for synthesis of chitosan-coated magnetic microparticle (CMMP) using glutaraldehydeas a cross-linker and polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a spacer arm has been developed. The functionalizedmicroparticle were prepared using an inexpensive, simple, rapid, one-pot process, based on the heating ofchitosan, PEG, and ferrous sulfate mixture at high pH. X-ray diffraction results indicated that the surfacemodifiedFe3O4 microparticle did not lead to phase change unlike the pure Fe3O4. Magnetic chitosanadsorbent has been evaluated for removal of peat humic acid from its aqueous solution.

Abstract

The continuously increasing population growth more than food agriculture growth on the existing land, has been encouraging to this research. The land use competition for agriculture and housing purposes have caused the land use change from forest to agriculture and housing. Within forested landscapes food production, commodity agriculture, biodiversity, resource extraction and other land uses are also competing for space. The forest land use change (deforestation) is one of the climate change causes. The impact of climate change among others is the uncertain climate, such as the long drought period, flood, and the extreme temperature that cause decreasing in agriculture production. Therefore, at present, many people use the marginal land, such as peat land for agriculture cultivation to increase the food agriculture production and to achieve the domestic and export demand. Indonesia has a huge peat land and the fourth biggest in the world after Rusia, Canada, and America. The focus of this study is comparing the life cycle assessment of three agriculture commodities: sago palm, oil palm, and paddy cultivated on peat land. The purpose of this research is to contribute a recommendation of the most sustainable commodity from the aspect carbon dioxide (CO2) emission among three food agriculture commodities include oil palm and paddy that currently as excellent commodities, and sago palm, the neglected indigenous plant, which are cultivated on peat land. The method applied for this research to analyze the environmental aspect using life cycle assessment (LCA) started from seedling, plantation, harvesting, transportation, and production process. The analysis result reveals that sago palm is the most environmental friendly. The lowest CO2 emission (ton/ha/year) is sago palm (214.75 ± 23.49 kg CO2 eq), then paddy (322.03 ± 7.57 kg CO2 eq) and the highest CO2 emission (ton/ha/year) is oil palm (406.88 ± 97.09 kg CO2 eq).

Abstract

Organic farming uses alternatives to agricultural chemicals such as synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. The primary challenge in organic rice farming is controlling weeds without using herbicides and improving rice yield without chemical fertilizers. In our previous paper entitled as combined use of Azolla and loach suppressed weed Monochoria vaginalis and increased rice yield without agrochemicals, we reported the first year rice growth season results from an in situ container experiment. The experiment was designed with 4 treatments—control (with neither Azolla nor loach), Azolla (Azolla alone), loach (loach alone), and Az+Lo (combined Azolla and loach)—with 3 replications each. The first year results showed that combined use of Azolla and loach was successful in weed suppression and increase in rice yield in 2012. In this paper, we report the second year results from the continuous container experiment in 2013. M.vaginalis emergences were very low in second year rice growth season on all treatments. Compared first year, the rice yields decreased in second year on all treatments due to different weather condition and with or without organic soybean oil cake application between two rice growth seasons. The second year results also showed the raising loach had a stronger effect to increase tiller and panicle numbers, and spikelet number per panicle, then improve rice yields to 2.3 times than control. The Azolla residues left from first year have weaker effect on rice growth and yield, but increase soil organic matter accumulation at second year. The two years study indicated that combined use of Azolla and loach can meet two of the greatest challenges in organic rice production: providing effective weed control and improving rice nutrition without agrochemicals.

Abstract

The research was to determine the potential of various species of organic vegetable from bamboo, taro, rattan and eggplant group from Central Kalimantan as fungicide and bactericide. In vitro testing of botanical pesticides used two types of fungi, namely Colletotrichum capsici and Sclerotium roflsii), and one pathogenic bacteria, namely Xanthomonas campestris. The results showed that several organic vegetable extracts from taro and rattan could control C. capsici, S. roflsii and X. campestris. It was proven that extract plant from immature fruit of Solanum ferox, mature fruit of S. lasiocarpum, leaf of S. torvum, tuber of Xanthosoma sagittifolium, leaf and midrib of Colocasia esculenta, C. esculenta and C. esculenta, fresh leaf of Dendrocalamus asper, stem inside of rattan Calamus trachycoleus  and Daemonorops fissa against growth of S. rolfsii. It was also found that four type of plant extracts could control C. capsici (that is fresh leaf of S. lasiocarpum and S. torvum, tuber of C. esculenta, leaf and midrib of X. sagittifolium). This study was the first to report that plant extracts from fresh leaf and mature fruit of S. ferox, mature fruit of S. melongena, leaf and midrib of C. esculenta, fresh leaf and stem of D. asper, stem of B. vulgaris var striata, skin and stem inside of C. trachycoleus and skin of D. fissa can inhibit growth of X. campestris bacteria. Hance, non-vegetable and organic vegetables from Central Kalimantan had potential as botanical pesticides.
