Abstract

This study aimed to optimize the growth and yield of yardlong bean (Vigna sinensis L.) through the application of local microorganisms (MOL) derived from bamboo shoots and the use of NPK Mutiara fertilizer. The research was conducted in Sidomukti Village, Mayang Subdistrict, Jember Regency, East Java, at an altitude of 297 meters above sea level, from September to December 2024. A factorial randomized complete block design (RCBD) was employed with three replications and two treatment factors. The first factor was the concentration of bamboo shoot MOL (M), consisting of four levels: M0 = control, M1 = 10 mL/L per plant, M2 = 20 mL/L per plant, and M3 = 30 mL/L per plant. The second factor was the dosage of NPK Mutiara fertilizer (P), consisting of three levels: P1 = 10 g/plant, P2 = 20 g/plant, and P3 = 30 g/plant. The observed parameters included plant height, number of leaves per plant, number of pods per plant, pod length per plant, fresh pod weight per plant, and root weight per plant. Collected data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), and significant differences were further tested using Duncan’s Multiple Range Test at a 5% significance level with Microsoft Excel. The results showed that bamboo shoot MOL concentrations had no significant effect on any of the observed parameters. However, the application of 20 g/plant NPK Mutiara fertilizer (P2) significantly affected plant height. Furthermore, the interaction between 30 mL/L bamboo shoot MOL and 30 g/plant NPK Mutiara (M3P3) significantly influenced the number of pods per plant.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the best mulch color, the optimal dosage of Phonska Plus fertilizer, and their interaction on the growth and yield of angled luffa (Luffa acutangula L.). The experiment was conducted at the DnR Garden, Pondok Bedadung Indah Housing Complex AA.01, Kaliwates, Jember Regency, East Java, Indonesia, at an altitude of 70 m above sea level. The study employed a 3 × 3 factorial experiment arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. The first factor was mulch color (M), consisting of three levels: M1 = transparent plastic mulch, M2 = silver plastic mulch, and M3 = black plastic mulch. The second factor was the dosage of Phonska Plus fertilizer (P), consisting of three levels: P0 = control, P1 = 4 g/L, and P2 = 8 g/L. The collected data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). When significant differences were detected, Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at the 5% significance level was performed using SPSS version 24. The results showed that black plastic mulch was the most effective treatment for enhancing the growth and yield of angled luffa, as indicated by the highest mean number of female flowers. The application of Phonska Plus fertilizer at a dosage of 8 g/L (P2) produced the best results for plant height, number of leaves, number of male flowers, number of female flowers, number of fruits, fruit weight, and fruit length. No significant interaction was observed between mulch color and Phonska Plus fertilizer dosage for any of the growth and yield parameters of angled luffa.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of calcinit application in AB Mix nutrition on the growth of green lettuce and red lettuce in a hydroponic DFT system. It also aims to evaluate the growth of green and red lettuce with different calcinit dosage treatments and to determine the interaction between calcinit dosage and lettuce varieties on the growth of hydroponically cultivated lettuce in a DFT system. The research method used a factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD) 2 × 3 with four replications. The first factor was lettuce variety (V), consisting of two types: V1 = green lettuce and V2 = red lettuce. The second factor was calcinit dosage (K), consisting of three levels: K1 = 1 g/L, K2 = 2 g/L, and K3 = 3 g/L. The observed parameters included plant height, number of leaves, root length, fresh weight, organoleptic test, and plant growth rate. The application of calcinit at a dosage of 3 g/L provided the best results for lettuce growth, both in green lettuce and red lettuce. The results showed that different calcinit dosages (1 g/L, 2 g/L, and 3 g/L) significantly affected lettuce plant growth. The findings of this study indicate that a calcinit dosage of 3 g/L produced the best results in lettuce growth parameters. The growth responses of green lettuce and red lettuce differed under different calcinit dosages. Furthermore, the interaction between a calcinit dosage of 3 g/L and green lettuce variety showed significant effects on plant growth parameters.

Abstract

Grapes have high economic value but are highly susceptible to postharvest damage due to infection by the fungus Botrytis cinerea, the cause of gray mold disease. The continuous use of synthetic fungicides triggers negative impacts, making chitosan-based natural coatings (edible coatings) a prospective alternative. The interaction between the physical application methods of the coating and commercial storage temperature fluctuations has not been evaluated in an integrated manner. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of chitosan edible coating in suppressing the incidence of gray mold disease and to analyze the interaction between application methods and storage temperatures on the postharvest quality of grapes. This research employed a Completely Randomized Design with a 3×2 factorial pattern, involving three replications using the Ninel variety of grapes. The factors tested included the chitosan application method (control, spray, dip) and storage temperature (4°C and 27°C), which were observed for 14 days. The analysis results showed a significant interaction between the application method and storage temperature on the disease incidence rate. The dipping and spraying methods at room temperature (27°C) significantly reduced the attack intensity compared to the control, while the best protection with 0% disease incidence was achieved through a combination of chitosan application and cold storage at 4°C. Temperature was proven to affect weight loss, but the interaction of chitosan application did not significantly affect weight loss or Total Soluble Solids (Brix). In conclusion, chitosan works precisely as an effective external bioprotection agent without clogging the fruit cuticle.

Abstract

The use of livestock manure as organic fertilizer is an alternative to support sustainable agricultural systems. The quality of the resulting compost is strongly influenced by the characteristics of the starting material, which in this case is closely related to the composition of the livestock feed. This study aims to examine the effect of premix administration in sheep feed on decomposition efficiency and the quality of the resulting compost. The study used a Completely Randomized Design with two treatments, namely without premix (PO23) and with premix (PO24), each with five replications. Observed parameters included temperature, pH, humidity, physical changes in the material, decomposition efficiency, and nutrient content of the compost. Data were analyzed using an independent sample t-test at a significance level of 5%. The results showed that environmental parameters did not differ significantly between treatments (p>0.05), so the composting process took place under relatively homogeneous conditions. However, the premix treatment produced a higher fraction of fine material in the 3rd and 4th weeks and significantly increased decomposition efficiency compared to the treatment without premix. Compost from the premix treatment also showed a tendency to increase the content of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and microelements accompanied by a decrease in the C/N ratio. In general, the use of premix in sheep feed shows a tendency to improve the quality of organic matter while supporting a faster decomposition process during composting. This finding suggests that animal feed quality can influence the quality of the resulting compost by altering the characteristics of excreta.

Abstract

Liquid organic fertilizer (POC) from kitchen waste is an environmentally friendly and low-cost nutrient alternative for hydroponic plant cultivation. This study aims to test the effectiveness of kitchen waste POC as a substitute for AB mix nutrient solution in the cultivation of water spinach (Ipomoea reptans Poir.) using the Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) hydroponic system. The study was conducted in the greenhouse of Lampung State Polytechnic. The design used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 5 treatments and 4 replications. The treatments consisted of P0 (AB mix 100%), P1 (POC 100%), P2 (POC 75% + AB mix 25%), P3 (POC 50% + AB mix 50%), and P4 (POC 25% + AB mix 75%). The parameters observed included plant height, number of tillers, root length, plant fresh weight, and plant dry weight. The results showed that the P3 treatment (50% POC + 50% AB mix) produced plant growth and yield equivalent to the 100% AB mix treatment (P0), as indicated by the absence of significant differences between treatments. This finding indicates that the combination of POC and AB mix in equal proportions has the potential to reduce AB mix usage by up to 50% without reducing the productivity of hydroponic water spinach.

Abstract

Postharvest losses caused by high moisture content remain a major issue in agricultural commodities in Indonesia. Traditional open-sun drying has several limitations, including dependence on weather conditions, long drying periods, and a high risk of contamination. This study aimed to analyze temperature distribution across each tray of a chamber-type solar dryer and evaluate the drying characteristics of corn (Zea mays L.) and turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) based on mass reduction, moisture content, and drying rate. The experiment was conducted using a 10 kg capacity chamber solar dryer equipped with 10 drying trays, with 900 g of material placed on each tray. Temperature and mass measurements were recorded every 15 minutes over a total drying period of 38 hours. Solar radiation intensity ranged from 271 to 812 W/m², while drying chamber temperatures varied between 45-54°C. Corn moisture content decreased from approximately 30% to 13%, while turmeric experienced a significant weight reduction, reaching the target moisture content of 13–14%. The relatively uniform temperature distribution promoted more even drying, indicating that chamber solar drying is an effective, hygienic, and environmentally friendly postharvest technology.

Abstract

Spodoptera litura is a major pest of horticultural crops that can significantly reduce crop yields and cause substantial economic losses to farmers. Botanical insecticides have emerged as an environmentally friendly alternative for pest management, helping to minimize the adverse effects associated with synthetic pesticides. Several plant species, including neem (Azadirachta indica), galangal (Alpinia galanga), and lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus), contain bioactive compounds with antifeedant and antibiosis properties against insect pests. However, information regarding the optimal concentrations and combinations of these botanical insecticides remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of different concentrations and combinations of botanical insecticides derived from neem leaf, galangal rhizome, and lemongrass stem extracts against the mortality of S. litura larvae. Plant extracts were prepared using water-based maceration, and efficacy tests were conducted through a spraying method. Observed parameters included larval mortality and feeding inhibition effects. Mortality data were analyzed using probit analysis to determine lethal concentration (LC) and lethal time (LT) values. The results showed that both the combined extract treatment and neem leaf extract alone at a concentration of 12.5% caused the highest larval mortality, reaching 100%. The combined extract treatment exhibited LC₅₀ and LC₉₀ values of 1.581% and 7.883%, respectively, while LT₅₀ and LT₉₀ values were 2.01 and 4.31 days, respectively. These findings indicate that increasing extract concentration enhanced its toxic effects on S. litura larvae. This study demonstrates the potential of botanical insecticides as sustainable and eco-friendly pest management tools, reducing dependence on synthetic insecticides and supporting the implementation of integrated pest management strategies for sustainable agriculture.

Abstract

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is a high-value horticultural crop whose productivity remains unstable due to suboptimal nutrient management. Combining inorganic fertilizer with biofertilizer, such as JAKABA (Jamur Keberuntungan Abadi), has the potential to improve fertilizer efficiency while maintaining soil fertility. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of combining NPK Mutiara fertilizer and JAKABA on the growth and yield of tomato plants and to determine the optimum fertilizer combination. The experiment was conducted using a single-factor Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with six treatments and four replications. The treatments consisted of P0 (control), P1 (10 g NPK Mutiara/polybag), P2 (20 mL JAKABA + 2 g NPK Mutiara/polybag), P3 (20 mL JAKABA + 4 g NPK Mutiara/polybag), P4 (20 mL JAKABA + 8 g NPK Mutiara/polybag), and P5 (20 mL JAKABA + 10 g NPK Mutiara/polybag). Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at the 5% significance level. The results showed that the combined application of JAKABA and NPK Mutiara had no significant effect on plant height, number of leaves, number of branches, fruit weight, or fruit diameter, but significantly affected flowering time and fruit number at 84 days after planting. Treatment P3 (20 mL JAKABA + 4 g NPK Mutiara/polybag) produced the highest fruit number (5.75 fruits per plant) and promoted earlier flowering. Therefore, this combination can be considered an efficient and environmentally friendly fertilization strategy for tomato cultivation.
