Abstract

Seeds that have exceeded their shelf life generally experience a decline in physiological quality, particularly in terms of viability and vigor. This study aims to determine the viability and vigor levels of several rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties of Foundation Seeds (Benih Pokok/BP) after surpassing their shelf life. The tested varieties included Inpari 16, Inpari 42, Inpari 45, Sunggal, Memberamo, and Ciherang, obtained from Wonoketro Village, Jetis Subdistrict, Ponorogo Regency. The study was conducted through standard laboratory testing for germination rate and vigor. Results showed a decrease in germination capacity across all varieties, with varying degrees of decline. Inpari 45 showed a germination rate of 39%, Memberamo 33.67%, Sunggal 26.33%, and Ciherang 15.67%, compared to the initial value of 92%. These differences indicate that each variety responds differently to aging and storage conditions. The findings serve as a basis for decision-making regarding the use of expired seeds and are important for seed management in the field.

Abstract

Sweet corn (Zea mays L. saccharata) is a high-value horticultural crop whose productivity is closely linked to effective nutrient management, particularly the balanced application of macronutrients—nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). This study evaluates the agronomic and economic impacts of applying NPK compound fertilizer at varying doses (0.5×, 0.75×, 1.0×, 1.25×, and 1.5× the recommended rate) on sweet corn growth and yield performance. Field experiments demonstrated that NPK application significantly enhanced vegetative growth parameters, including plant height, leaf number, and stem diameter, with improvements ranging from 15.8% to 37.3% over the unfertilized control. Yield components such as ear length, husked ear weight, and dehusked ear weight also showed marked increases, resulting in higher total yields per plot and per hectare. Among the treatments, the 1.25× dose achieved the highest relative agronomic effectiveness (RAE) at 147%, indicating superior nutrient utilization and biomass conversion. However, the 1.0× dose yielded the most favorable economic outcome, generating a net profit of Rp. 10,780,200 and an R/C ratio of 1.47, suggesting optimal cost-efficiency. These findings underscore the dual benefits of NPK compound fertilizer in sweet corn cultivation, highlighting that precise dosage not only maximizes agronomic performance but also enhances economic viability. The study recommends adopting the 1.0× dose for balanced productivity and profitability, while the 1.25× dose may be considered in contexts prioritizing yield maximization.

Abstract

Human resources are one of the important aspects that must be managed optimally by organizations in order to provide maximum contribution to achieving company goals. In the current era of globalization, the level of competition between companies is increasingly fierce, requiring organizations to continuously improve the performance of their employees. This study focuses on two main research questions: how does reward provision affect employee performance at PT Prima Indo Papua and how does motivation provision affect employee performance at the company. The purpose of this study is to determine the extent to which rewards and motivation contribute to improving employee performance. The research variables consist of Reward (X1), Motivation (X2), and Employee Performance (Y). The research population was all 40 employees of PT Prima Indo Papua, while the research sample of 31 people was determined using a saturated sampling technique. The types of data used were primary data obtained through questionnaires and secondary data from company documents. Data analysis was carried out using a quantitative method through hypothesis testing, where the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected if the significance value was <0.05. The results showed that reward provision had a positive and significant effect on employee performance with a significance value of 0.025 <0.05, so the alternative hypothesis (Ha1) was accepted. Similarly, the motivation variable has a positive and significant effect on employee performance with a significance value of 0.044 < 0.05, thus the alternative hypothesis (Ha2) is accepted. Thus, both rewards and motivation are proven to be important factors in improving employee performance at PT Prima Indo Papua. This study implies that company management needs to continue to pay attention to the reward and motivation systems implemented to ensure employee performance is maintained and continuously improved.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the income and feasibility of sago processing business in Andabia Village, Anggaberi District, Konawe Regency. The research was carried out in March 2025 using the purposive sampling method, based on the consideration that the sago processing business has long been the main livelihood of the local community. The sample was taken by census of 13 respondents. Data analysis using revenue model I = TR - TC and business feasibility analysis with an R/C = TR / TC ratio approach. The results of the study show that in one sago processing process, the total revenue reaches IDR 18,000,000, while the total cost is IDR 7,863,269. Thus, the net income obtained by sago processors is IDR 10,136,731. The business feasibility analysis shows an R/C ratio value of 2.29, which means that every expenditure of IDR 1 generates IDR 2.29 in revenue. The R/C value > 1 indicates that the sago processing business in the region is profitable and feasible to be developed. These findings provide a basis for strengthening the local economy through optimizing the sago business as a sustainable source of income. This study also recommends policy support and technical training to improve the efficiency and competitiveness of sago processing businesses in the area.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of attractants on the activity of the pollinating beetle Elaeidobius kamerunicus and its impact on the efficiency of pollination and palm oil (Elaeis guineensis) production at PT Menthobi Makmur Lestari, Lamandau Regency, Central Kalimantan. The study was conducted from May to July 2025 using a factorial randomized block design with two factors: topography (flat 0–8% and hilly 15–25%) and attractant doses (0, 1, 2, and 3 ml/ha) with three replications.The parameters observed included the frequency of E. kamerunicus visits to female flowers and the percentage of fruit set. The results showed that the topography factor, attractant dose, and their interaction significantly affected the number of E. kamerunicus visits and fruit set (p < 0.01). The combination of flat land with high attractant doses resulted in the highest visits (69.04 beetles/spike) and maximum fruit set (75.11%), while the hilly land without attractants showed the lowest results (34.60 beetles/spike; 61.22%). The application of attractants increased fruit set by more than 20% compared to the control, leading to an increase in bunch weight (BJR) of approximately 5.67 kg/bunch, additional production of about 1,151 kg FFB/ha per 1.5 months, and a potential income of Rp 3,683,200/ha, far exceeding the application cost of Rp 211,638/ha. These results indicate that the use of attractants is an effective and efficient agronomic strategy to improve palm oil productivity. Thus, attractants have proven to significantly enhance pollination efficiency and palm oil production, providing substantial economic benefits to farmers and supporting the sustainability of palm oil plantations. This approach offers an applicable and sustainable solution for agricultural practices, which can be applied to various locations with similar topographical conditions.

Abstract

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) is a major tropical commodity in Southeast Asia that plays an important role in the global economy, especially as a raw material for the food, cosmetics, and bioenergy industries. West Kalimantan Province is one of the regions with the largest oil palm plantations in Indonesia, where its area increased from 1,166,282 Ha in 2020 to 1,449,274 Ha in 2022. Landak Regency contributes 119,326 Ha, but its productivity is still relatively low with a total production of 184,592 tons or around 1.54 tons/Ha. PTPN IV Ngabang in Landak Regency as one of the largest palm oil companies in the area also faces the problem of low productivity, thus hindering harvest rotation and the achievement of daily targets. This study aims to describe the productivity of oil palm harvester labor and find out what factors affect the productivity of oil palm harvester labor in PTPN IV, Ngabang District, Landak Regency. The method uses qualitative as an approach in finding answers with a sample of 78 respondents. The variables in this case study are labor productivity (Y) and independent/independent variables (X), namely age, working period, family dependents, mileage, and education. The data analysis technique used in this case study is analysis on multiple linear regression. The results of the study concluded that the productivity of oil palm harvesters in PTPN IV Ngabang averaged 1200,71 kg/day. Simultaneously, age, family dependents, working period, mileage, and education affect the productivity of oil palm harvester labor at PTPN IV Ngabang. Partially, the factor that greatly affects the productivity of the oil palm harvester workforce at PTPN IV Ngabang is the age factor of the worker and working period. Meanwhile, the factors of family dependents, distance traveled and labor education partially did not have a significant effect.
