Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the concentration of gibberellins acid growth regulator (GA3) on the germination of sugar palm seeds. The experiment was carried out at Graha Tanjung Anom with an altitude of about 50 masl from December 2021 to May 2022. The experiment was carried out using a non-factorial Randomized Block Design. The factors studied were the treatment of gibberellins acid concentrations with 8 levels namely G0 ; zero or no gibberellins acid, G1 : 0.5 mg / l ; G2 : 1.0 mg/l ; G3 :1.5 mg/l : G4 :2.0 mg/l : G5 : 2.5 mg/l ; G5 ; 2.5 mg/l ; G6 ; 3.0 mg/l and G7 ; 3.5mg/l. The treatment consisted of 3 repetitions (blocks) so that there were 3x8 = 24 experimental units (plots). Each experimental unit (plot) consisted of 20 seeds (polybags). Parameters observed were the percentage of seeds germinating, average germination age, seedling height, number of leaves and stem diameter. Based on data analysis (Anova), and the discussion some conclusions can be drawn as follows; Concentrations of 0 to 3.5 mg/l GA3 markedly increased the percentage of seed germination, accelerated the germination age of 5.48 days, tended to increase seedling height and number of leaves as well as the diameter of the base of the seedling stems. It is necessary to investigate the effect of GA3 concentration and soaking time on sugar palm seed germination.

Abstract

Monitoring of Attacks and Control of Fire Caterpillar Pests (Setothosea asigna) on Oil Palm Plants at the Tanah Gambus Plantation of PT. "Socfin Indonesia" aims to describe the results of monitoring and control methods for fireworms in oil palm plantations. This research was conducted in the Three Divisions of Tanah Gambus Plantation, Batu Bara Regency, North Sumatra, from January to April 2024. The study used descriptive methods through field observations, sampling at census points, and re-censuses. Monitoring was conducted to monitor fireworm populations, while primary control was carried out through fogging with Santador 25 EC insecticide and diesel. This paper presents an integrated approach to controlling fireworms, which damage oil palm productivity. This study highlights the important role of routine monitoring, which involves mapping infestation points in specific blocks and establishing infestation criteria (light, moderate, and heavy) to determine appropriate control methods. In addition to chemical techniques, control also considered alternative control methods such as biological control with natural predators. The results showed variations in fireworm populations across blocks, influenced by environmental conditions such as high humidity. Post-control re-censtrals were conducted to measure the effectiveness of these methods

Abstract

The quality of farmers' cacao beans is generally still low today. One of the causes is because they are planted at various altitudes, especially in the highlands. The research focuses on the characteristics of cacao pod and beans at several altitudes in the highlands of North Sumatra. This research is conducted from July 2022 to December 2023 in Simalungun, Karo, Dairi, Samosir, North Tapanuli, and Humbang Hasundutan Regencies of North Sumatra Province. The parameters observed are pod length, pod diameter, pod volume, pod dry weight, bean dry weight, number of beans per pod, average weight per bean at 24 different altitudes between 815 m to 1300 m above sea level, with 10 pieces (replications) respectively in each level. The research results show that the characteristics of cacao pod and beans decrease along with increasing altitude in the highlands. The characteristics of cacao pod and beans in the highlands are still in the normal category compared to those in the lowlands

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of ecoenzyme in suppressing the intensity of yellow virus disease in red chili plants (Capsicum annum L). This study used a non-factorial Randomized Block Design (RAK), namely with one factor of adding ecoenzyme as an intensity suppressor, consisting of 5 treatment levels, namely E0: control, E1: 10 ml ecoenzyme/liter of water, E2: 20 ml ecoenzyme/liter of water, E3: 30 ml ecoenzyme/liter of water and E4: 40 ml ecoenzyme/liter of water. In carrying out this study, it is necessary to prepare the land, install mulch, fertilize, plant, replant, water, weed and harvest and apply ecoenzyme. The parameters observed were plant height (cm), stem diameter, incidence of red chili plants (Capsicum annum L) on the yellow virus, production or harvest per plot. The provision of ecoenzyme concentration did not significantly affect plant height and stem diameter at the ages of 2, 4 and 6 MST. Addition of nutrients to plants can increase growth, plant immunity to viruses and diseases and increase production for plants. The provision of ecoenzyme concentration affects the diameter of 8 MST and the weight of red chili (Capsicum annum L) per plot. The higher the concentration of ecoenzyme, the better the growth and production of red chili (Capsicum annum L). The provision of ecoenzyme concentration has an effect on suppressing the incidence of yellow virus attacks on red chili (Capsicum annum L) plants
