<![CDATA[This study aims to determine the effect of using the Ispring Suite 11 application on the Indonesian language learning outcomes of eighth-grade students at MTs Negeri 1 Sidenreng Rappang for the 2023/2024 academic year. The population of this study comprised all eighth-grade students, totaling 205 students, with a sample of 60 students, including 30 experimental class students (VIII-A) and 30 control class students (VIII C). Data were collected using observation and post-test techniques. The results of the Minimum Completeness Criteria (KKM) analysis showed that the average score of the experimental class was 74.5, higher than the control class, which averaged 67.1. In the experimental class, 15 students achieved the complete category, while in the control class, only 9 students did. Therefore, the null hypothesis (H0), stating that the Ispring Suite 11 application does not affect the Indonesian language learning outcomes of eighth-grade students, was rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted. In conclusion, the use of the Ispring Suite 11 application positively influences the Indonesian language learning outcomes of eighth-grade students at MTs Negeri 1 Sidenreng Rappang.]]>

<![CDATA[The complexities of climate change are well-known, and it has immediate and long-term consequences on the environment and natural resources. This global concern adversely affects sustainable development sectors and economic systems including the agricultural sector. The tea sector is among the largest export crops contributing to earnings and revenues. Its production has been declining, and the reasons behind this decline remain unclear. This study proposed to explore the influences of climate variability on the current productivity trend of smallholder tea farmers in Tanzania. The study involves quantitative data analysis, collected from 1990 to 2020 including monthly precipitation, temperature statistics, and Greenleaf production gathered as secondary data from the Tea Research Institute of Tanzania and the Tea Board of Tanzania. The study found that rainfall and temperature change significantly influence smallholder farmers' tea production in the East Usambara Mountains. The optimal climate elements (temperature and precipitation) positively improve smallholder farmers' tea production. In contrast, extreme climate variability triggers negative effects on tea production when precautions and adaptation measures are not considered. To summarize, it is recommended that farmers engage in different programs and training sessions to enhance their perception and adaptability to climate change.]]>

<![CDATA[Understanding the degree of regional autonomy in funding development and government operations by raising the possibility of regional revenue is a crucial component of putting regional autonomy authority into practice. The degree of regional financial independence indicates how well the regional government has been able to boost local financial capability and lessen reliance on financial aid from the federal government. In order to determine the direct and indirect impacts between variables, this study used the route analysis data analysis method (route Analysis) with SPSS (Statistical Product and Service Solutions) software version 29. Path analysis is chosen in this study because it enables testing of the theoretical applicability of the methodology employed, which is the causal relationship approach. Path analysis is a useful tool for analyzing more complex models than multiple linear regression can handle. The government is projected to be able to implement strategic policy initiatives in an effort to raise Regional Original Income, which serves as a source of funding for capital expenditures.]]>

<![CDATA[This study demonstrates the potential of Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, and Trichogramma spp. as effective biological control agents against the Shot Hole Borer in pomegranate orchards. The findings suggest that these bioagents can be integrated into existing pest management programs, offering a viable and environmentally sustainable alternative to chemical pesticides. This research contributes to the broader field of sustainable agriculture and highlights the importance of biological control in managing pest populations in fruit crops.]]>

<![CDATA[This study investigates the influence of three Bahar treatments—Ambe Bahar (spring flowering), Mrig Bahar (monsoon flowering), and Hasta Bahar (autumn flowering)—on the extent of nematode infestation in pomegranate orchards. The research was conducted in major pomegranate-growing regions of India, where soil samples were collected from fields practicing each of the Bahar treatments. The results revealed significant differences in nematode infestation levels across the three Bahar treatments. Mrig Bahar exhibited the lowest nematode density, with an average of 80 nematodes per 100g of soil, compared to 120 in Hasta Bahar and 150 in Ambe Bahar. Additionally, Mrig Bahar treatment was associated with the highest average yield (12.8 kg per plant) and superior fruit quality (Grade A). The findings suggest that Mrig Bahar offers a more conducive environment for nematode management, likely due to its timing relative to environmental conditions that may suppress nematode activity. The results revealed significant differences in nematode infestation levels across the three Bahar treatments. Mrig Bahar exhibited the lowest nematode density, with an average of 80 nematodes per 100g of soil, compared to 120 in Hasta Bahar and 150 in Ambe Bahar.

The findings suggest that Mrig Bahar offers a more conducive environment for nematode management, likely due to its timing relative to environmental conditions that may suppress nematode activity. This study underscores the importance of selecting the appropriate Bahar treatment to mitigate nematode infestation and optimize pomegranate production. The insights gained from this research can guide farmers in choosing the most effective cultivation practices, ultimately contributing to sustainable pomegranate farming and improved economic outcomes. Further research is recommended to explore the underlying mechanisms that confer resistance in Mrig Bahar and to develop integrated nematode management strategies tailored to specific Bahar treatments.]]>
