Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of leaf and flower extracts (Lantana camara) in controlling pod borers (Etiella zincknella) on black soybean (G. soja (L) Merril). This research was conducted in February-June 2024. The study used the non-factorial RAK (Randomized Group Design) method with treatments: PO = No treatment. P1 = Concentration of 5 grams of Lantana camara leaf extract /L. P2 = Concentration of 10 grams of Lantana camara leaf extract /L. P3 = Concentration of 15 grams of Lantana camara leaf extract /L. P4 = Concentration of 20 grams of Lantana camara leaf extract /L. P5 = Concentration of 25 grams of Lantana camara leaf extract /L. The parameters observed were: Plant height, number of leaves, weight of filled pods, percentage of attack. The treatment of Lantana camara leaf extract did not significantly affect the height, number of leaves and weight of pods of black soybean plants. In the percentage of treatment P0, P1, P2, P3 showed no significant difference to the percentage of black soybean pod sucking pest attack but the four treatments were significantly different from the P4 and P5 treatments.

Abstract

Tuna chili sauce is one of the local processed products from Agriku MSME, which is marketed within the Muhammadiyah University of Parepare. This product has a distinctive taste and considerable market potential among students and academic staff. However, the marketing of this product still faces several challenges, such as limited production capacity and suboptimal promotional efforts. The objectives of this study are: 1) To identify internal and external factors affecting the sales of Agriku's tuna chili sauce at Muhammadiyah University of Parepare; and 2) To analyze effective marketing strategies to increase its sales within the campus environment. This research employs a descriptive quantitative method, utilizing a SWOT analysis approach, and data collection techniques that include observation, questionnaires, and documentation. The results show that the product's strengths lie in its flavor quality and attractive packaging, while its weaknesses are limited promotion and production capacity. Opportunities include high market demand and support from the university, whereas threats come from competing products. This study yielded several practical marketing strategies, including optimizing product strengths through targeted social media promotion, expanding distribution reach beyond the campus, incrementally increasing production capacity, and developing product variations to address market competition. These strategies were derived from a SWOT analysis that positioned the product in Quadrant II (diversification strategy), where the organization possesses internal strengths but faces external threats.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the importance of developing organic agricultural cultivation as an alternative to sustainable agriculture that is environmentally friendly and able to have a positive impact on consumer health, soil fertility, and environmental sustainability. Organic farming is now one of the solutions in reducing dependence on synthetic chemicals, as well as supporting environmentally sound farming systems. The FAPETRIK Scientific Garden of the University of Muhammadiyah Parepare is a potential location for the implementation and development of organic farming systems, because it is supported by adequate facilities and infrastructure, such as trial land, the availability of agricultural equipment, and access to organic materials. The purpose of this study is to determine the financial feasibility of organic pakcoy farming carried out in the plantation. The type of research used is quantitative research with a case study approach, which is to examine real conditions in one specific location. The data analysis technique used is financial feasibility analysis, which includes the calculation of production costs, revenue, and efficiency analysis through the Revenue Cost Ratio (R/C Ratio). The results of the study showed that the total income from four production times was IDR 4,235,000, while the total production cost reached IDR 4,730,500. The difference between cost and income showed a loss of IDR 495,500. The R/C Ratio value of 0.89 indicates that every IDR 1 production cost only generates IDR 0.89 in income. This shows that organic pakcoy farming in the location is not financially feasible and requires improvements in cost management and increased production in order to become an efficient and profitable business.

Abstract

Excessive reliance on synthetic pesticides in modern agricultural systems has caused various serious problems, including pest resistance, ecosystem damage, and threats to human health. Ecology-based Integrated Pest Management (IPM) emerges as a promising alternative approach to address these challenges while enhancing agricultural productivity sustainably. This research aims to analyze ecology-based IPM strategies and evaluate their effectiveness in improving sustainable agricultural productivity. The research method uses a qualitative approach with systematic literature review of scientific publications from 2019 to 2024, case studies of IPM implementation in various countries, and comparative analysis between IPM systems and conventional pest management. Data were collected from 78 reputable journal articles, technical reports from international agricultural organizations, and field practice documentation. The analysis results show that ecology-based IPM implementation can reduce synthetic pesticide use by up to 65 percent while maintaining or even increasing crop productivity by 12 to 18 percent compared to conventional systems. Key components of IPM strategy include systematic pest population monitoring, utilization of natural enemies through conservation and augmentation, crop diversification and rotation to disrupt pest life cycles, use of pest-resistant varieties, habitat manipulation to enhance functional biodiversity, and application of biological and selective pesticides only when necessary based on economic thresholds. IPM implementation faces challenges including higher technical knowledge requirements, time investment for intensive monitoring, and transition periods requiring ecosystem adjustment. However, long-term benefits including ecological sustainability, better soil health, reduced input costs, and agricultural system resilience to climate change make IPM a highly prospective strategy. Policy recommendations include development of farmer training programs, incentives for IPM practice adoption, support for research and development of pest-resistant varieties, and integration of IPM in agricultural education curricula.
