Abstract

Soybean is an important food commodity in Indonesia because it is the main raw material for tofu and tempeh, two major protein sources widely consumed by the population. However, domestic soybean production remains far below national demand resulting in heavy dependence on imports. In contrast maize is increasingly preferred by farmers due to its higher productivity and a more stable economic value. Therefore, maize–soybean intercropping has emerged as a promising strategy to improve land-use efficiency while increasing soybean production without reducing maize cultivation. This study systematically mapped and synthesized maize–soybean intercropping research in Indonesia and conducted a meta-analysis of Land Equivalent Ratio LER values reported across studies. Literature searches using Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar identified 179 eligible publications published between 1978 and 2023. Most studies focused on agronomic factors such as variety selection spacing arrangement and fertilizer management. Meta-analysis showed average LER values of 1.47 ± 0.046 for maize–soybean intercropping and 1.36 ± 0.081 for maize–mung bean intercropping indicating advantages over monoculture systems. However, inconsistencies in methodology and reporting standards limited study comparability and sustainability assessments. Future research should integrate ecological, social, and long-term economic indicators alongside standardized reporting frameworks to strengthen evidence-based intercropping recommendations nationally for sustainable agriculture.

Abstract

This study aimed to test the effectiveness of gauze and nylon fiber wraps containing ethylene oxidizing compounds, namely clay mixed with potassium permanganate (KMnO₄), in extending the shelf life of Raja Bulu bananas (Musa sp., AAB Group). The experiment was conducted at the Postharvest Laboratory, Department of Agronomy and Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Bogor Agricultural University, from February to March. A randomized complete design (RCD) with seven treatments was applied: P1 as control without wrapping or oxidizing materials; P2, P3, and P4 using gauze with 30, 60, and 90 g oxidizing compounds; and P5, P6, and P7 using nylon fibers with 30, 60, and 90 g oxidizing compounds. Each compound consisted of clay and KMnO₄ in predetermined proportions. The results showed that the longest shelf life, reaching 14 days, was obtained from P5 treatment, where the bananas remained edible. Similar results were observed in P3 and P4 gauze treatments, while bananas in P1 and P7 spoiled after nine days. Wrapping with ethylene oxidizing compounds reduced fruit weight loss during 3–12 days of storage, with P5 showing the lowest loss after 12 days. However, the treatments did not affect the skin color scale index, fruit flesh-to-skin ratio, edible portion, or skin firmness. Overall, ethylene oxidizing wraps extended banana shelf life by up to five days compared with the control. Nylon fiber wrapping with 30 g oxidizing compound is recommended for Raja Bulu banana storage. This treatment offers a practical and low-cost postharvest technology for maintaining banana quality during short-term distribution processes.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the response of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) seedlings to KCl fertilizer dosage and drought stress in the early pre-nursery seedling phase. The experiment used a factorial randomized block design (RBD) with a combination of KCl dosage and soil water content, replicated three times, with observations made on the parameters of corm diameter, leaf width, and number of leaves. The observation data were analyzed using analysis of variance and continued with the Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at the 5% level if there were significant differences. The results showed that KCl dosage, drought stress, or the interaction of the two did not have a significant effect on corm diameter and number of leaves. Conversely, drought stress individually had a significant effect on leaf width, while KCl dosage showed no significant effect. The interaction between KCl dosage and drought also had no statistical impact on leaf width. These findings indicate that in the pre-nursery phase, oil palm seedling growth in corm diameter and number of leaves was relatively stable across treatments, while leaf width was more sensitive to water limitations. The implications of this study indicate the importance of managing the availability of water in the planting medium to support leaf growth, while the administration of KCl at the tested dose has not provided a significant effect on the initial phase of seedling growth.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of buffalo waste bokashi on the growth of agarwood seedlings and the economic value of buffalo waste bokashi business. This study was conducted at the Malimbong Balepe agricultural extension center, Tana Toraja Regency, South Sulawesi, from August to December 2025. The study was conducted using a randomized block design (RAK) with 4 treatment levels, namely; B0 (without bokashi), B1 (200 grams/plant), B2 (400 grams/plant), and B3 (600 grams/plant). The parameters observed were plant height, number of leaves, stem diameter, and root volume. Data were analyzed using a combined analysis of variance (ANOVA), while for farming business analysis using the R/C ratio, Break Event Point (BEP) and Return On Investment (ROI). The results showed that the B3 treatment (600 grams/plant) was the best treatment for plant height, leaf number, stem diameter, and root volume. The buffalo waste bokashi business had an R/C ratio of 2,80, ROI 180% indicating that this business is feasible.

Abstract

The analysis in this study was conducted to calculate income from rice farming, as well as measure the contribution of rice paddy income to total household income in Kalibu Kuni Village. The research area was determined by purposive sampling method, which was deliberately selected in Kalibu Kuni Village, because it is one of the villages that produces rice every year. This activity took place in two months, starting from April 2026 to May 2026. Eighty-three rice farmers in Kalibu Kuni Village participated as respondents in this study. To determine the average income from rice farming in Kalibu Kuni Village, Waikabubak City District, West Sumba, an agricultural income analysis was conducted. To obtain the total income of farmer households, the total income from rice cultivation, agricultural income other than rice, and income from the non-agricultural sector was added up. Then, an analysis of the contribution of income from rice cultivation to the household income of rice farmers in Kalibu Kuni Village was conducted. The results of the analysis showed that the average income from rice cultivation was Rp 49,510,908.43 per year. The average household income of respondents in this study was Rp. 61,359,101.35 per year, where with a contribution of 80.69% from rice cultivation, it can be concluded that rice cultivation makes a high contribution to the household income of farmers in Kalimbu Kuni Village.
