Abstract

Knowledge related to operational practices and business development strategies for fish farmers is crucial for the sustainability of the aquaculture sector, including in Palembang City as one of the main centers for freshwater fish farming. This study aims to evaluate the impact of extension services on operational practices and business development strategies for fish farmers in Palembang. The survey was conducted from July to September 2025 on 100 respondents with the criteria of at least three years of fish farming experience and having participated in extension activities. Data were collected through structured interviews, observations, and focus group discussions, then analyzed descriptively and using Spearman's Rank correlation. The results showed that extension services improved operational behavior (average score of 60.73; high category), especially in feed management and water quality, although business recording was still moderate. The impact on business development was also high (average score of 61.06), especially on production efficiency and market access, while business diversification and institutional strengthening were classified as moderate. The results of the Spearman's rho correlation test showed a value of 0.716, which means there is a positive and strong relationship between the quality of extension services and improved operational behavior and business development. These findings confirm that fisheries extension workers play a strategic role in promoting production efficiency, business innovation, and improving the managerial capacity of farmers. However, business sustainability will be more optimal if the administrative and institutional aspects of the groups are systematically strengthened

Abstract

Pempek is a regional specialty from Palembang City, South Sumatra Province, made from fish, tapioca flour, water, and salt. This study was to evaluate the effect of the addition of chayote puree on the chemical and organoleptic properties of red snapper pempek. The method used is quantitatively using a Randomized Group Design (RAK) arranged in a Non Factorial manner with five treatments, namely L1 (addition of 5% chayote puree), L2 (addition of chayote puree 10% of the total ingredients), L3 (addition of chayote puree 15% of the total ingredients), L4 (addition of chayote puree 20% of the total ingredients), and L5 (addition of chayote puree 25% of the total ingredients), repeated three times. The parameters observed included protein and fiber content, while the hedonic test assessed color, aroma, taste, and texture. The findings showed that adding chayote puree had a highly significant effect on protein and fiber content. The highest protein content was found in treatment L5 (±18.50%), and the lowest was in treatment L1 (±14.75%). The highest fiber content was in treatment L5 (±22.01%), and the lowest was in treatment L1 (±9.67%). Moderately preferred treatment L1 (5%) with color characteristics ±3.96 and taste ±3.88. Moderately preferred treatment L3 (15%) with aroma characteristics ±3.76. Moderately preferred treatment L5 (25%) with chewiness characteristics ± 3.48.

Abstract

Crocidolomia pavonana is a major pest that damages Brassicaceae plants such as cabbage, mustard greens, and broccoli. Continuous use of synthetic pesticides can cause pest resistance. This study aims to evaluate the acute toxicity and potential of Jahe Emprit (Zingiber officinale var. amarum) extract which is rich in gingerol as a botanical biopesticide against the third instar larvae of Crocidolomia pavonana, which is one of the main pests of Brassicaceae plants. This study was conducted using an experimental method with a Randomized Block Design (RBD) using four extract concentration treatments, namely 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8%, and used a negative control in the form of distilled water and a positive control pesticide Fenite 150 OD. Analysis of the active compound gingerol in the extract was carried out using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The extract mortality test was carried out to determine Lethal Time 50 and Lethal Concentration 50 through the Topical Application method. The results of HPLC analysis of the bioactive gingerol compound showed a high level of 8.082 µg/mL. Mortality tests showed a significant increase in larval mortality along with increasing concentration and duration of exposure. The (LC50) value was recorded at 4.52%, indicating that the extract has a fairly high potential for acute toxicity. However, based on the (LT50) value of 60.26 hours (±2.5 days), this extract is included in the category of insecticides with a slow-acting mechanism, which is a typical characteristic of plant secondary metabolites. The most efficient extract concentration, namely 8%, was able to produce mortality of up to 70% and efficacy of 66.70% after 72 hours of treatment. The novelty of this research is the use of standardized ginger extract with verification of gingerol content through HPLC as a basis for biopesticide development., providing an alternative for sustainable pest control, and supporting environmentally friendly agricultural practices.

Abstract

The City of Semarang routinely faces flood disasters that threaten food security. This study aims to formulate a flood-adaptive food security strategy using a multidisciplinary approach. The methodology integrates three main analyses: Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping for flood vulnerability using spatial data overlay (including 2025 land cover update); quantitative impact analysis on household food security by comparing the Food Consumption Score (FCS) between affected (case) and non-affected (control) areas; and strategic priority determination using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) involving seven key stakeholders. The spatial analysis results indicate that northern coastal areas, such as Genuk and North Semarang Districts, have the highest flood vulnerability. The comparative FCS analysis confirmed that flooding significantly reduces food security, evidenced by a 36.5% decrease in the average FCS score and the emergence of 20% of households in the food-insecure category in case areas. The AHP prioritization established Food Stability (weight 0.329) and Food Access (weight 0.276) as the two highest priority criteria. The synthesis of these analyses yields a sustainable city strategy prioritizing concrete interventions such as developing communal food barns for emergency reserves, establishing disaster-resilient alternative logistics routes, and protecting productive agricultural land. Overall, this research provides a strong scientific basis for the Semarang City Government to design effective disaster mitigation policies inherently integrated with long-term efforts toward achieving a resilient and sustainable food system.

Abstract

Land use and land cover changes in Indonesia, particularly those resulting from the expansion of oil palm plantations, are a critical issue in environmental dynamics and sustainable development. This study aims to analyze trends and characteristics of scientific publications related to LULCC in Indonesia using a bibliometric approach. Data were analyzed using VOSviewer and Biblioshiny to identify knowledge structures, thematic trends, and research topic developments. Results indicate that publications have experienced an annual growth rate of 9.68% with a relatively high level of collaboration. Dominant themes identified include land use, deforestation, and Indonesia, and suggest that in the literature, oil palm expansion is frequently associated with changes in land cover. Temporal analysis also indicates a shift in research focus toward issues of climate change, sustainability, and environmental monitoring. Overall, this study confirms that LULCC research in Indonesia is developing in a multidisciplinary manner and contributes to understanding research directions while supporting evidence-based policy-making.

Abstract

Utilization of work time allocation is one of the important factors in increasing work productivity to improve the economic capacity of independent oil palm farmers' households. This study aims to allocate work time between oil palm farming, off-farm and non-farm activities, the contribution of oil palm farming income to total household income to calculate the level of economic capacity of independent oil palm farmers and the distribution of total income distribution of independent oil palm farmers' households. The method used is the census method conducted in STL Ulu Terawas District and Sukakarya District, Musirawas Regency, South Sumatra. The location was chosen because these two locations are independent oil palm producers, each location was taken by 50 independent oil palm farmers with a total of 100 respondent farmers. The data collected were primary data through structured interviews and questionnaires, while secondary data were obtained from related agencies. The results of the study show that the allocation of working time carried out by family labor is 97.56 HOK/year for oil palm farming, 198.24 HOK/year for non-oil palm farming, and 167.48 HOK/year for non-farming. The potential working time of the respondent's farmer family is 613.14 HOK/year with the family's free time being 149.86 HOK/year. These results prove that the respondent's farmer family, in addition to being able to carry out three activities, still has free time allocated to carry out other productive activities and social activities. Income from oil palm farming activities is Rp37,431,611, - with a contribution of 55.52% to the total income of respondent farmers, this shows that independent oil palm farming dominates the source of income for farmer families. The distribution of income distribution of respondent farmers from low and high incomes, obtained a Gini index value of 0.489

Abstract

Ready-to-eat salads have become increasingly popular as a convenient and healthy food option; however, they are prone to microbiological contamination due to minimal processing and the absence of heat treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the microbiological quality of ready-to-eat salads sold in the Klang Valley, Malaysia. A total of ten samples from various brands were analyzed using Total Plate Count (TPC), Total Yeast and Mould Count (TYMC), and Total Coliform methods. The results showed that TPC values ranged from 4.49 to 6.60 Log CFU/g, with some samples approaching or exceeding the acceptable safety limit. TYMC values ranged from 0.00 to 3.11 Log CFU/g, with the highest value observed in sample F10, indicating potential yeast and mould growth due to high moisture and nutrient content. Coliforms were detected in several samples, with the highest value of 4.03 Log CFU/g, suggesting possible post-processing contamination or inadequate sanitation practices. Overall, most products complied with food safety standards; however, improvements in Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and cold chain temperature control are necessary to ensure microbiological quality.

Abstract

Feed prices remain a major issue in catfish farming due to the continued reliance on imported raw materials, such as fish meal, as the primary source of protein. Efforts are needed to reduce dependence on imported materials with alternative protein sources that are sustainable, economical, and offer good nutritional value. One example of utilizing waste as an alternative raw material for fish feed is chicken manure. Manure is a waste product from broiler and layer chicken farms. However, it still faces challenges, such as its relatively high crude fiber content, making it difficult to apply because it can result in low feed digestibility. Therefore, technology is needed to reduce the crude fiber content in chicken manure so that the material can be utilized optimally. This study aims to determine the appropriate dosage and fermentation time to improve the nutritional quality of chicken manure. This study used the Factorial RAL method with two factors and three replications. The first factor was the eubiotic dosage (0%, 10%, 20%), and the second factor was the fermentation time (0 days, 3 days, 6 days). The results showed a significant interaction between the eubiotic dosage and fermentation time on the percentage of crude protein, crude fiber, and cellulose. The eubiotic dosage significantly affected crude protein, crude fiber, and cellulose. Fermentation time also significantly impacts crude protein, crude fiber, and cellulose. The combination of 20% eubiotic treatment with a 6-day fermentation period was most effective in reducing crude fiber and increasing crude protein in chicken diets.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the availability of snakehead fish (Channa striata) at the Jakabaring Main Market in Palembang City, South Sumatra Province, based on social and economic aspects. The method used is descriptive quantitative with time series data for 2025 sourced from primary data. The results show that the availability of snakehead fish tends to fluctuate, but still follows a seasonal pattern. A decrease in supply occurs from May to June, indicating a period of scarcity, while a significant increase occurs at the end of the year, especially in December. From a social aspect, trader characteristics such as age, experience, and supplier networks play an important role in maintaining supply sustainability. In addition, the consumption culture of the Palembang community, which uses snakehead fish as a main ingredient in traditional foods, also contributes to consistently high demand. From an economic aspect, fluctuations in availability have a direct impact on price changes, so that limited supply triggers price increases. Meanwhile, abundant stock suppresses prices in the market. Overall, the availability of snakehead fish at the Jakabring Main Market in Palembang City, South Sumatra Province, is still relatively able to meet market demand, despite a critical period in the middle of the year. This shows that socio-economic factors and natural conditions are interrelated in determining the stability of supply and price of snakehead fish in the market.

Abstract

The sustainability of plasma oil palm farming is heavily determined by the farmers' internal resilience against external pressures, particularly those related to financial dependence or financing from partnership credit schemes. Although serving as initial capital, a high ratio of financial obligations has the potential to weaken business resilience and the farmers' long-term sustainability status. This study aims to calculate the multidimensional sustainability index of plasma farmers (economic, environmental, social, technical, and institutional dimensions) and identify the key attributes (leverage) most sensitive to increasing the sustainability index in Teluk Gelam District, Ogan Komering Ilir Regency. The research was conducted using purposive sampling of 50 plasma farmers. Data were collected through structured interviews and literature studies. Sustainability analysis employed the Multi-Dimensional Scaling (MDS) approach via the Rap-PalmOil program. Furthermore, Leverage Analysis from the MDS was used to determine the factors with the highest leverage in enhancing sustainability. The results indicate that the sustainability status of plasma farmers falls into the "fairly sustainable" category (61.72), with the technical and institutional dimensions being the most sensitive factors to leverage changes. High leverage is proven to decrease the sustainability index due to increased dependence on credit obligations and the weak bargaining position of farmers within the plasma partnership model. Strengthening institutional capacity and improving financial governance are essential strategies for enhancing the long-term sustainability of plasma farmers.
