Abstract

This study examined the growth of Robusta coffee seedlings treated with ecoenzymes derived from fruit peel and addressed the limitations of red-yellow podzolic soil, which is deficient in macronutrients and organic matter. The objective of this study was to determine whether the application of different concentrations of ecoenzymes could enhance the growth of Robusta coffee seedlings. This study employed a non-factorial completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of 5 treatments with 4 replicates. The treatments were as follows: K0 = application of 0 mL/L ecoenzyme concentration (Control), K1 = 25 mL/L ecoenzyme concentration, K2 = 50 mL/L ecoenzyme concentration, K3 = 75 mL/L ecoenzyme concentration, and K4 = 100 mL/L ecoenzyme concentration. The research data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at the 5% significance level using the DSAASTAT software. The results showed that the application of different ecoenzyme concentrations had a significant effect on improving the growth of Robusta coffee in terms of seedling height, stem diameter, leaf length, leaf width, root length, and dry weight. The optimal ecoenzyme treatment dose was K2 (a concentration of 50 mL/L), which increased seedling height by 6.91 cm, stem diameter by 1.88 mm, leaf length by 7.62 cm, leaf width by 3.35 cm, root length by 9.17 cm, and dry weight by 0.48 g.

Abstract

Pest management research has gained a considerable importance among scholars because of growing problems associated with agricultural efficiency, environmental sustainability, development of pesticide resistance, and food safety issues. In this paper, the objective is to investigate the growth, intellectual structure, collaborations, and future trends of global pest management research with the help of bibliometric analysis. The data used in the current study are obtained from scientific publications indexed in an international academic database and analyzed through VOSviewer in order to identify authorship networks, co-occurrence of keywords, citation structure, and time-related developments of the research. The results of the study show that pest management research is highly concentrated around certain topics that include pest control, pest management, biological control, insect control, pesticide application, and integrated pest management (IPM). The citation analysis proves that important studies have been involved in the process of change from traditional chemical pest management towards ecological and sustainable pest management strategies including habitat management, biopesticides, conservation of natural enemies, and biological control. The collaborations analysis proves that such countries as the USA, China, India, Australia, and several European countries are actively participating in knowledge production on the global scale but there are still opportunities for enhancing research cooperation between countries. Finally, the analysis of keyword evolution suggests that the attention of researchers focuses on sustainability, invasive species management, biotechnology, and ecological pest management techniques.

Abstract

Circular agriculture has become a significant research area where scholars explore ways to implement circular economy concepts in agriculture and promote resource efficiency, waste valorization, and sustainable food production. In this work, an attempt is made to analyze the evolution, intellectual structure, collaborative practices, and current research trends of circular agriculture publications through the application of a bibliometric approach. To achieve the stated objectives, the data collection process was conducted through the use of Scopus and relevant keywords concerning the area of interest, while VOSviewer software was employed to conduct citation analysis, co-authorship analysis, country and institutional collaboration mapping, keyword co-occurrence analysis, overlay visualization, and density analysis. It was revealed that the research area of circular agriculture had undergone a significant development and is strongly associated with such areas as circular economy, sustainability, bioeconomy, agricultural waste management, nutrient recycling, and resource recovery. Through the citation analysis, the most influential papers were found to be centered around topics such as transformation of agricultural supply chain, waste valorization, circular bioeconomy, and sustainable resource management. Collaboration analysis showed that there is a high level of international collaboration in the field of interest, while the key countries making their contributions to the development of circular agriculture include China, the USA, and several European countries. Through the analysis of keywords, it could be said that three key research dimensions are currently dominating in the field, namely circular resource management, sustainable agricultural transformation, and technological innovations in agriculture. Current research trends indicate growing interest towards bio-based solutions, circular supply chains, digital agriculture, and sustainable food systems.

Abstract

Efficient irrigation systems and sustainable agricultural water management are essential factors in improving rice productivity and optimizing water resource utilization. This study aims to examine the effect of technical irrigation systems and agricultural water management on rice production yields and water use efficiency in Bogor. A quantitative research approach was applied using survey data collected from 100 rice farmers. Data were obtained through a structured questionnaire measured using a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) version 3. The analysis consisted of measurement model evaluation, including validity and reliability testing, and structural model evaluation through path coefficient analysis, coefficient of determination (R²), predictive relevance (Q²), and hypothesis testing. The results indicate that technical irrigation systems have a positive and significant effect on rice production yields and water use efficiency. Furthermore, agricultural water management demonstrates a stronger positive influence on rice production yields and significantly improves water use efficiency. Rice production yields also positively contribute to water use efficiency. These findings indicate that irrigation infrastructure development should be integrated with effective water management practices to achieve higher agricultural productivity and sustainable water utilization. This study provides practical implications for farmers, agricultural institutions, and policymakers in developing more efficient rice production systems in Bogor.
