Abstract

Masalah rawan pangan tidak akan pernah terjadi di Indonesia jika tidak diikuti dengan maraknya kegiatan alih fungsi lahan, terutama lahan basah yang merupakan lahan dimana tanaman padi ditanam.  Sehubungan dengan permasalahan tersebut, dan dalam upaya untuk memenuhi tingkat kebutuhan pangan nasional, maka program diversifikasi pangan sangat diperlukan. Umbi talas termasuk komoditas umbi-umbian yang mampu berperan sebagai sumber bahan pangan alternatif yang sehat dan aman. Akan tetapi, karena tingkat ketersediaannya yang masih terbatas sebagai akibat rendahnya daya dukung lahan terutama padatnya struktur tanah mengakibatkan hasil yang diperolehpun juga rendah.Percobaan yang bertujuan untuk mendapatkan dosis kompos sampah kota yang tepat di lahan kering telah dilaksanakan di Desa Dau, Kabupaten Malang. Rancangan lingkungan yang digunakan adalah Rancangan Acak Kelompok Sederhana dengan menempatkan dosis kompos sampah kota sebagai perlakuan dan terdiri dari 6 taraf , yaitu :  0 ton ha-1 (kontrol); 2,5 ton ha-1, 5 ton ha-1, 7,5 ton ha-1, 10 ton ha-1 dan 12,5 ton ha-1.  Percobaan diulang 3 kali sehingga terdapat 18 unit perlakuan. Parameter pengamatan yang diamati meliputi jumlah daun, luas daun, bobot segar total tanaman, bobot kering total tanaman, jumlah umbi per tanaman dan bobot umbi per tanaman.Hasil percobaan menunjukkan terjadinya pengaruh nyata dari aplikasi kompos sampah kota pada seluruh parameter yang diamati.  Pada umumnya komponen pertumbuhan yang mencakup jumlah daun, luas daun, bobot segar total tanaman dan bobot kering total tanaman yang lebih tinggi didapatkan pada tanaman yang dipupuk kompos sampah kota dosis 10 ton ha-1 dan 12,5 ton ha-1. Sedang bobot umbi per tanaman tertinggi didapatkan pada tanaman yang dipupuk kompos sampah kota dosis 12,5 ton ha-1, yaitu sebesar 336,32 g tanaman-1

Abstract

White spot syndrome (WSS) adalah penyakit yang secara signifikan menyebabkan tingginya mortalitas dan kerusakan parah pada budidaya udang. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui dampak stres salinitas terhadap prevalensi WSSV dan survival rate udang vannamei (Litopenaeus vannamei). Penelitian ini menggunakan udang vannamei ukuran PL 40 yang diinfeksi WSSV dengan konsentrasi virus 20 μg/ml pada tiga rentang salinitas yang berbeda 0-10 ppt, 11-20 ppt, 21–30 ppt dan di rendam selama 4 jam kemudian dilakukan pengamatan selama 7 hari pasca infeksi dan diukur survival rate dan kuaitas airnya. Hasil pengamatan menunjukkan bahwa seluruh sampel terinfeksi oleh WSSV, ditunjukkan hasil analisa PCR dan gejala klinis yang timbul. Salinitas 0-10 ppt memberikan hasil persentase survival rate terendah jika dibandingkan dengan rentang salinitas yang lainnya yaitu sebesar 7 ekor atau 33% dari jumlah total sampel yang digunakan. Persentase survival rate udang tertinggi pasca infeksi virus WSSV terdapat pada perlakuan salinitas 21-30 ppt yaitu sebesar 13 ekor atau 63% dari jumlah total individu, dan salinitas 11-20 ppt memiliki persentase survival rate medium yaitu sebesar 10 ekor atau 49% dari jumlah total sampel. Stres salinitas mempengaruhi prevalensi WSSV dengan semakin tingginya tingkat infeksi seiring menurunnya rentang salinitas, akan tetapi survival rate semakin tinggi seiring dengan bertambahnya rentang salinitas.

Abstract

Abstract –The ability of mangrove (Avicennia) to absorb heavy metal has been known. This study aims to determine whether there are differences of absorption level of non-essential (Pb) essential (Cu) heavy metals in Avicennia marinafrom different location, based on distance of pollutants sources (downstream) toward to the mouth of Porong River Estuary at Sidoarjo. Results showed that accumulation of Pb in the roots and leaves was ranged from 0.0044 to 0.139 ppm and from 0.004 to 0.019 ppm respectively, while in sediment was ranged from 0.0560 to 0.0660 ppm. The accumulation of Cu in the roots and leaves was ranged from 0.07 to 0.415 ppm and 0.0318 to 0.2520 ppm while in sediments was from 0.2930 to 0.381 ppm. The highest concentration of Pb and Cu were found from sediments followed by roots and leaves. The high concentration of heavy metal (Pb and Cu) in the root is likely due to sediment size. The high concentration of heavy metal (Pb and Cu) in the root is likely due to sediment size. When the size is finer, heavy metal accumulation will be higher, although there was no significantly different from different location.

Abstract

Along with the development of culture, both traditional and biotechnology, the use of pandan, as can be found either in the community, traditional markets, experiencing a shift which was replaced by other materials, such as by plastic straps, caps from fabric. Ethnobotany study done by collecting a "ethnodirect sampling" technique with direct or semi-structural interviews. The method is carried out at pandan anatomy including: methods for extracting fiber, making transverse and longitudinal leaf preparations, measurements of leaf length and fiber strength and making preparations transversal and longitudinal of supporting root. The long term goal of this study is to obtain a data base of pandan (Pandanaceae) that can later be used to perform resource management in pandan (Pandanaceae) to its preservation in East Java, thus supporting ecological functions and the resulting types are also cultivating other Pandan also potentially. The short term goal is to get the kind of pandan (Pandanaceae) is useful to be developed as a craft that can later be used to improve the economy of East Java community through anatomical structures. The three types of pandan namely P. tectorus, P. labyrinthicus and P. furcatus has the potential to be developed as a base for the manufacture of rope and handicrafts. The potential of plant-based crafts from fiber can still be developed on the craft of Pandanus.

Abstract

Live coral cover at Sempu Nature Reserve was decrease from 50% in 2006 to 36% in 2013. Adverse human activities such as: over-fishing, recreational activities, waste disposal, deforestation, reef mining and deforestation were suggested to be main factors for declining coral reef at this area. Restoration is defined as the act of returning an ecosystem, as nearly as possible, to its original condition. Coral on Sendang Biru laid on northern area of Sempu Island. Coral garden was establish in the end of 2013. Aim of this research was to know the growth (wide, number of branches, growth rate) of staghorn coral that was transplanted on steel frame at coral garden in different depth. Staghorn coral were tied on doom shaped steel in 6 m depth. The result showed that the average of increasing staghorn coral's area was 56. 91 cm2, number of branch increase was 55 and growth rate was 5.23 cm2/month respectively. Increase of depth will influence to decrease of sunlight intensity in water will be affected on calcification rate of coral. GR of staghorn coral in Sempu was higher than other area.

Abstract

Batu-Malang Government area is one of central production of orange fruit production in East Java. At dry season, the orange plant produce low production level, because there is no available enough water inside the soil. From this facts, it needs effort to increase the orange production especially to facing the dry season, through a new technology engineering and construction of sprinkle irrigation system to increase orange production especially at dry season. Average of irrigation water necessary per days at the treatment of water shower period indicated that the treatment of four times a week reach 20,202 liter as highest value and the treatment of once a week reach 13,000 liter as lowest value. At the bud crown not found obvious differences between factors with the treatment of T1R3 have highest inclination with 175 number of flowers. The treatment of T1R3 indicated 359.667 as highest result and T4R3 indicated 233.667 as lowest result. The treatment of T1R3 indicated 658 as highest result and the control treatment indicated 426.333 as lowest result. The treatment of T1R3 produced 1032.667 as highest result and the control treatment produced 404 as lowest result.

Abstract

Environmental pollution could directly reduce water quality for shrimp cultivation. This study aims to determine how the environmental quality, shrimp population and genetic characteristics of shrimp that live in polluted waters in shrimp ponds in East Java associated with WSSV disease that often attacks on cultivated shrimp. The method used was a descriptive exploratory. Data collection was collected by observation and interview with farmers on disease history. Water was sampled for water quality study and characterize its suitability for shrimp cultivations. Shrimps were also sampled for morphological and genetical study for its susceptibility of WSSV. All samples were taken every week during shrimp cultivation in Malang ans Gresik. Morphological study using scoring method to determine the disease stages on shrimp, while for genetical study using specific primer for ICP11 for WSSV detection, since ICP 11 is expressed when WSSV infection is occur. Samples were taken from 2 shrimp ponds in South Malang and Gresik.The overall water quality is good, except for NO2 and TOM in both seawater shrimp ponds which higher than the freshwater/estuary shrimp ponds. Light infections of WSSV were detected in all seawater ponds both in morphology and genetics. However, in the freshwater/estuary pond only shrimps from freshwater/estuary Gresik which showing light WSSV infection genetically, but not in the morphological signs. Early disease detection is important to control the disease spread.
