Abstract

The water supply in dry land depends on the rainfall, which causes agricultural constraints and limited water supply. The pottery irrigation method is considered capable of overcoming water shortages during the dry season. Pottery irrigation uses porous clay, so the water slowly comes out of the pottery and wet the surrounding soil. The research aimed to study the influence of pottery subsurface irrigation with and without mulching on watermelon growth and soil properties of clayey soil Alfisol and sandy soil entisol. The research was conducted on July 2019 in the experimental field Faculty of Agriculture, Karanganyar Regency. The experimental research design used a nested design with a 3-factor treatment that were soil type (T), fertilization method (P), and use of mulch (M). The types of soil were Alfisol (T1) and Entisol (T2). The fertilization methods were fertigation 100% (P1), fertigation 50% (P2), and banding fertilization 100% (P3). Mulch application included control, without mulch (M0) and mulch (M1). The combination of P1M1 treatment on alfisol and entisol soil showed the highest soil moisture with values of 23.1% and 22.5%, respectively. The highest fruit weight of melon in alfisol and entisol soils were indicated by the same treatment (P1M1) with values of 580.33 g and 616.5 g, respectively.

Abstract

This study aimed to obtain the composition of biochar as a soil enhancer and mycorrhizal dose, which affected the nutrient uptake of cayenne plants. This experimental research was based on a separate plot design (RPT) with a basic randomized block design (RCBD). The main plot experiment was vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhiza or VAM (m) with three levels: mycorrhiza 10 g/plant (m1), mycorrhiza 15 g/plant (m2), and mycorrhiza 20 g/plant (m3). The subplot is biochar composition as soil enhancer (b) with three types: biochar husk 50%+25% soil+25% sand (b1), 50% sand+25% soil+25% biochar wood (b2), and wood charcoal biochar 50%+soil 25%+biochar charcoal husk 25% (b3). Each level of the VAM doses factor is combined with biochar. These nine treatment combinations and the levels were repeated thrice, accounting for 27 experimental units. The results showed that the parameters of phosphorus uptake, potassium uptake, and fresh root weight had a positive and significant relationship to the percentage of mycorrhizal infections. The combination treatment of mycorrhiza 20 g/plant and the composition of 50% husk biochar+25% soil+25% sand, 15 g mycorrhizal dose treatment with 50% wood biochar+25% soil+25% biochar rice husk and 20 g/plant are the best treatment as a planting medium.

Abstract

The impact of salinity on paddy production in Indonesia was pronounced with an average decline of 6.83% (2015-2019). Salinity interferes with macronutrients' absorption into plants, causing stunted growth (salinity contributed to a 42% decrease in paddy production). One solution to solve the salinity problem in paddy is to use saline varieties. There were very few studies on macronutrient content analysis in resistant varieties response to the salinity source's distance.  This research conducted in Jabon Sidoarjo, Indonesia, aims to see the macronutrient response and plant growth to the saline source's distance. This research was conducted in Jabon District, Sidoarjo Regency, using two transects with a length of 2 km and 3.4 km, respectively. The distance between the research location and the salinity source was 10.65 km.  The survey used a free grid to adjust paddy fields' location and the presence of resistant varieties. The results showed that the closer to the salinity source, the salinity indicators consisting of Electrical Conductivity, Sodium Adsorption Ratio, Exchangeable Sodium Percentage, and pH H2O would increase. The increase in salinity then affects the decrease in macronutrients (Nitrogen, Phosphor, and Kalium) in plants. However, tillers and leaves (length and number) were unaffected by high salinity levels in the soil.

Abstract

The specific location fertilization or in situ fertilization rate is a dynamic application and management method dynamically adapted to the plant’s need according to location and season related to soil chemical properties and aims to increase farmer profit. This greenhouse experiment aimed to evaluate the NPK fertilizer dose based on in situ soil chemistry of tidal swamp compared to NPK recommendation combined with cow manure from the local farm. These pot experiments were conducted from June to October 2019 in a Greenhouse of Soil Science Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Sriwijaya University, Indralaya, Ogan Ilir of South Sumatra.  This experiment used a factorial completely randomized design with two factors and three replications. The first factor was NPK fertilizer rate consisting of two levels (200 kg ha-1 Urea, 100 kg ha-1 SP-36, and 100 kg ha-1 KCl) from recommended fertilizer, and (102 kg ha-1 Urea, 0 kg ha-1 SP-36, and 66 kg ha-1 KCl) from the in situ soil analysis. The second factor was cow manure with four levels (2, 6, 8, and 10 Mg ha-1). The result showed that recommended NPK combined with 10 Mg ha-1 cow manure was the best for rice production in tidal lowland and produced 2.5 Mg ha-1.  However, this result was not significant compared to NPK specific locations combined with the same rate of cow manure.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the application of biocompost and mycorrhizae fungi on chemical properties of inceptisol soil and root infection on purple corn plants.  This research was conducted in October-December 2020 at Experimental Garden, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Malikussaleh in Reuleut Village, Muara Batu District, Aceh Utara, employing Randomized Block Design (RBD) Factorial with 2 factors observed.  The first factor observed was different doses of biocompost: B0 (0 ton/ha, 0 g/plot), B1 (5 tons/ha, 1500 g/plot), B2 (10 tons/ha, 3000 gr/plot) and B3 (15 tons/ha, 4500 gr/plot). The second factor was M0 (0 ton/ha, 0 gr/plot, 0 g/plant), M1 (0.25 tons/ha, 75 g/plot, 5 g/plant) dan M2 (0,5 ton/ha, 150 g/plot, 10 g/plant).  The results indicated that the application of biocompost together with mycorrhizae has increased soil pH from 5.0 to 5.5 and the application of biocompost alone has improved the organic C (1.58% to 2.98%) and the application of mycorrhizae improved the root infection by 90%. The application of 5 ton/ha biocompost and 0.5 ton/ha mycorrhizae were to be found to be the best doses to improve the chemical properties of inceptisol soil and mycorrhizal infection.Keywords: biocompost, inceptisols, purple corn, mycorrhizal fungi

Abstract

Sustainable forage production is needed to meet animal feed needs as the livestock industry increases. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of liquid and solid carrier material on the effectiveness and infectivity of Bradyrhizobium sp. strain PZS_A08 on the growth of Indigofera zollingeriana (I. zollingeriana). The two carrier materials used were zeolite (solid) and molasses (liquid). This study used two carrier materials consisting of zeolite (solid) and molasses (liquid). The five treatments given were P0 (50% NPK), P1 (50% NPK+liquid biofertilizer), P2 (50% NPK+sterile liquid biofertilizer), P3 (50% NPK+solid biofertilizer), P4 (50 % NPK+sterile solid biofertilizer), P5 (100% NPK). Observations were made on the plant's height, number of leaves, number of nodules, upperparts and root wet biomass, root and upper parts dry biomass, root length, and microbial population). The use of liquid and solid carrier materials effectively affected the effectiveness and infectivity of Bradyrhizobium sp. strain PZS_A08 on  I. zollingeriana. Inoculants Bradyrhizobium sp. strain PZS_A08 significantly increased plants' growth and reduced the use of 50% NPK fertilizer. Cold storage temperature (5ºC) effectively maintained Bradyrhizobium sp. strain PZS_A08 on liquid and solid carriers, while solid carriers showed better effectiveness at room temperature storage (30oC). Through this research, solid carriers such as zeolite are recommended as carriers for Bradyrhizobium sp. filter PZS_A08.

Abstract

This research aimed to study the addition of ameliorant material in the soil to increase fertility rates, especially for potato plants grown at the height of 750 m above sea level. The experiments were conducted on medium plains 750 m above sea level in the Jatinangor area, Indonesia, with land type Incepticol. The composition of ameliorant consists of Cattle manure, biochar from coconut shells, and dolomite. The seeds of the potatoes used are relatively good varietal when cultivated in a medium plain. The design of the environment used is the group’s random draft repeated three times, the treatment design consists of K0: control; K1: Cattle manure 10 Mg ha-1; K2: Cattle manure 20 Mg ha-1; K3: Cattle manure 8 Mg ha-1, dolomite 1 Mg ha-1, 1 Mg ha-1 biochar; K4: Cattle manure 16 Mg ha-1, dolomite 2 Mg ha-1, 2-Mg biochar ha-1, K5: Cattle manure 8 Mg ha-1, dolomite 2 Mg ha-1; K6: Cattle manure 16 Mg ha-1, dolomite 4 Mg ha-1; K7: Cattle manure 8 Mg ha-1, biochar 2 Mg ha-1; K8: Cattle manure 16 Mg ha-1, biochar 4 Mg ha-1. Results showed that the composition and dose of ameliorant could increase the value of soil pH but have not improved the C/N ratio and absorption of phosphorus plants. The best result was obtained from the composition treatment of 16 Mg ha-1 Cattle manure, 2 Mg ha-1 dolomite, and 2 Mg ha-1 biochar. Soil pH is capable of increased by 16.83%, and the size of the potato bulbs of Class L (450-550 mm) amounted to 35, 11%, size M (350-450 mm) by 25.89%, and size S (200-350 mm) amounting to 34.37% when compared with controls.

Abstract

Rehabilitation of post-mining limestone soils is often a challenge due to a lack of nutrients and poor soil humus. The research aims to study the effect of various ameliorants on soil chemical properties, growth, and P uptake of gaharu plant (Aquilaria malaccensis) in post-mining limestone soil for revegetation of critical land. The research was conducted in a Completely Randomized Design with three replications. The treatments were P0 (Control, without ameliorant); P1 (Humic Acid, HA, 4 kg ha-1 ); P2 (Phosphate Rocks, PR, 350 kg ha-1 ); P3 (Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi, AMF, 500 spores plant-1 ); P4 (HA+AMF); P5 (PR+AMF); and P6 (HA+PR+AMF). Data were analyzed using ANOVA at 95% confidence level and continued with the LSD test. The use of various types of ameliorants (HA, RP, and AMF) significantly increased root length, root volume, wet and dry weight of roots, shoot wet and dry weight, and P uptake of gaharu tree. The best ameliorant in increasing gaharu tree growth was AMF (P3) treatment, and AMF combined with HA (P4) treatment. Thus, for revegetation of critical land, especially post-mining limestone land, using gaharu tree requires HA and AMF inoculation.

Abstract

Soil biomass carbon microorganism (C-mic) is one indicator of soil fertility. The application of humic acid, vermicompost aqueous extract, and TSP fertilization applied to the soil will affect the activity of soil microorganisms. This research aimed to study the effect of humic acid, vermicompost extract, and TSP fertilization on C-mic. The first factor was the application of humic acid (h), namely, without humic acid, commercial origin, and humic acid-like from watery extract vermicompost. The second factor is TSP fertilization (p) divided into four dose levels: without TSP fertilizer, TSP fertilizer 100 kg ha-1, TSP fertilizer 200 kg ha-1, and TSP fertilizer 300 kg ha-1. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance and continued with the Least Significant Difference (LSD) test at the 5% significance level. The correlation between C-organic, soil pH, soil temperature, soil moisture content, stalk dry weight, and weight of corn kernels with C-mic was tested by correlation test. The results showed that the application of humic acid and TSP fertilization had no significant effect on C-mic, and there was no interaction between the two at seven days after planting (DAP), 56 DAP, and 104 DAP. There was a correlation between soil organic carbon 7 DAP (r: 0.34*), 56 DAP (r: 0.59*), and 104 DAP (r: 0.53*), soil moisture content at 7 DAP (r: 0.36*), soil pH at 56 DAP (r: 0.42*) and 104 DAP (r: 0.43*), soil temperature at 104 DAP (r: -0.52*), stalk dry weight at 56 DAP (r: 0.34*), corn kernels weight at 113 DAP (r: 0.65*) with C-mic.

Abstract

White oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) requires a source of nutrients for growth and development. The provision of NPK fertilizer aims to increase the source of media nutrients so that the results obtained are better in quantity and quality. Growth regulators can stimulate the relatively long growth of oyster mushroom mycelium. Growth regulators contain hormones that can support growth rates. One alternative natural growth regulator that can be used is coconut water. The research was carried out at the oyster mushroom kumbung at Pekanbaru, using a completely randomized design, consisting of 2 factors and three replications. The first factor was NPK fertilizer consisting of 4 levels (0, 7.5, 10, 12.5) g per baglog. The second factor was coconut water consisting of 4 levels (0, 3, 6, 9) ml per baglog. Data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance and further tested using DNMRT level 5%. The results showed that adding 10 g of NPK fertilizer and 6 ml of coconut water per baglog was a better dose for the number of fruit bodies, fresh fruit body weight, fruit cap diameter, fruit stalk length, and biological efficiency.
