<![CDATA[Advancements in Internet of Things (IoT) technology have revolutionized agriculture by enabling real-time monitoring and automated environmental control to optimize crop growth. This study focuses on evaluating the impact of IoT implementation on greenhouse environmental stability and the growth of Robusta Coffee Clone BP 308 seedlings, emphasizing plant height and leaf count as key parameters. The IoT system incorporates DHT11/DHT22 sensors for temperature and humidity monitoring, soil pH sensors, and an ESP8266 WiFi module for data transmission to an IoT platform. Additionally, Fuzzy Logic algorithms were employed to analyze the data and regulate environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity automatically. The experimental design compared IoT-based systems with conventional methods in a controlled greenhouse environment. Results demonstrated that the IoT system significantly enhanced environmental stability, maintaining an average temperature of 26.59°C and humidity of 86.46%, compared to conventional systems with greater fluctuations of 28.43°C and 82.69%. This stability positively impacted seedling growth, with IoT-treated plants achieving significantly higher heights and leaf counts at weeks 3, 6, and 9. By week 9, IoT-treated seedlings averaged a height of 24.00 cm with 11.73 leaves, outperforming non-IoT seedlings, which reached only 14.07 cm with 8.27 leaves. These findings highlight IoT's potential to create optimal growth conditions, reduce environmental stress, and enhance photosynthetic efficiency. Furthermore, IoT's precision in managing resources supports sustainable agriculture, making it an essential tool for improving productivity and competitiveness, especially in coffee cultivation, a key commodity in Indonesia.]]>

<![CDATA[Antibiotics and microbial resistance are important issues in the poultry industry. The research continues to find alternative natural feed additives to replace antibiotics and have positive effects as growth promoters. This study aimed to provide the biochemical composition of pomegranate (Punica granatum) with the object of peels, seeds (including arils), and whole fruit (peels + seeds) using six replicates for each part of the pomegranate. Eighteen pomegranates were analyzed for water, carbohydrates, protein, fat, fiber, ash, polyphenols, flavonoids, tannins, and antioxidant activity. The weight of the peel compared to the total weight was significantly higher (p≤0.05) than seeds and whole fruit. The protein, fat, and fiber levels of peels were substantially lower than those of seeds and whole fruit, in contrast, the ash content and carbohydrate levels were significantly higher (p≤0.05) than other pomegranate parts. The biochemicals and bioactive compounds in the peel tend to be higher than the different parts. The levels of polyphenols, flavonoids, tannins, and antioxidant activity in the peel were significantly (p≤0.05) higher than all parts of the pomegranate, respectively 11.3 mg/g, 9.78 mg/g, 200.52 mg/g, and 39.03%. This study concludes that the peel is the best contributor as a natural feed additive.]]>

<![CDATA[Maize is a vital source of carbohydrates and livestock feed in Indonesia, where domestic demand is rising despite inconsistent productivity. Innovative cultivation methods, such as paclobutrazol (PBZ) application, are being explored to boost maize productivity. PBZ affects maize's growth, with its effectiveness depending on the timing of application. This study was to figure out the optimal timing of PBZ application to improve the synchronization of cob and female flower emergence, thereby maximizing plant growth and yield. The experiment utilized a randomized complete block design (RCBD) comprising five treatments: a control and four intervals for the second PBZ application (3, 6, 9, and 12 days after the first application), each replicated three times. Data were analysed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) at a 5% significant threshold, succeeded by Tukey’s test. Results showed that the timing of the second PBZ application significantly influenced maize growth and yield. A three-day interval after the first PBZ application produced the highest values in key morphological variables, such as green leaf index and total dry weight. This timing also optimized plant growth metrics, leading to higher maize yield. In conclusion, a three-day interval is recommended for maximizing maize productivity.]]>

<![CDATA[This research focuses on the development of a Mini-Conveyor Trainer Kit designed for automation system education. The prevalent communication protocol in the industry is the Modbus protocol. Therefore, the mini conveyor controller is equipped with an RS485 module to enable communication via the Modbus protocol. The mini conveyor employs a DC motor and is controlled using an 8-bit microcontroller. By utilizing the Modbus protocol, the mini conveyor can be controlled through a PLC, simulating an industrial conveyor system. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of automation systems to learners. The trainer kit aims to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application in automation systems. The integration of the Modbus protocol allows for real-time control and monitoring, which are critical skills in modern industrial settings. Throughout this research, we detail the design and implementation process of the mini conveyor system, including hardware setup, microcontroller programming, and Modbus communication protocol configuration. Additionally, we conduct a series of tests to evaluate the system's performance, reliability, and response time when controlled via a PLC. The results demonstrate that the mini conveyor trainer kit successfully replicates the functionality of industrial conveyor systems, making it an invaluable tool for educational purposes. Learners can gain hands-on experience with industrial communication protocols and control systems, enhancing their understanding and preparedness for careers in automation and manufacturing industries. In conclusion, the development of this Mini-Conveyor Trainer Kit provides an effective educational tool that aligns with industry standards, thereby enriching the learning experience and equipping students with essential skills for the future.]]>

<![CDATA[Closed-house broiler chicken farming enhances productivity and animal welfare by maintaining optimal environmental conditions. However, reliance on grid electricity for air control systems increases operational costs and environmental impact. This study investigates the implementation of a solar-powered air control system to regulate temperature, humidity, and ventilation in closed-house broiler farming. The system integrates photovoltaic (PV) solar panels, energy storage, and a smart control mechanism. The system's performance is evaluated based on energy consumption, solar energy generation, and environmental parameters. Results show the system effectively maintains optimal broiler growth conditions while reducing energy dependence. Energy savings of up to 10% are achieved, leading to lower operational costs and improved sustainability.The findings demonstrate the feasibility of solar-powered solutions in broiler farming, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing farm resilience. Future work will explore IoT integration for real-time monitoring and further energy optimization.]]>
