Abstract

In Brown Planthopper (BPH) has caused losses of rice production in Java due to excessive use of pesticides. This research aims to determine the relationship between crop damages caused by BPH and insecticides use schemes. The pesticide use schemes by farmers were observed in 15 districts on Java which were reported for having severe BPH attacks i.e. Banyuwangi, Jember, Blitar, Kediri, Lamongan, Tuban, Bojonegoro, Pati, Demak, Pekalongan, Tegal, Klaten, Sukoharjo and Indramayu, Subang. Most of the sample plots in 15 districts were in the category of damage levels 2 and 3. Most of districts having rice plantations were affected by BPH with insecticides. Rice plants that have the highest level of damage are those with over-pesticide application. There is a significant influence between insecticide use schemes and BPH attack rates in the field. BPH attacks increase in line with the increased use of pesticides, in terms of application frequency, the various types of pesticides, and the number of sprayed mixture pesticides. Many farmers use pesticides that are prohibited for rice cultivation, such as the Pyrethroid and Organophosphate groups. However, the incidence of BPH attacks stilloccur even though there are differences in the pesticide status of legality

Abstract

The space between young rubber plants can be utilized for growing soybean. The aim of this study was to quantify the effectiveness of some soil ameliorants applied in combination with a reduced dosage of NPK fertilizer on soil properties and soybean yield. in a young rubber and soybean intercropped system on acid upland soil. The study was conducted in East Lampung Indonesia from April to July 2013. The plots were designed in a split-plot with three replications. The main plots were the level of NPK fertilizer recommendation dosage (100% and 75%). The subplots were soil ameliorants. The results showed that a 25% reduction of NPK did not significantly affect the soil properties and soybean yield when applied with soil ameliorants. Application of dolomite 2 t/ha and Biochar SP50 2.5 t/ha reduced soil exchangeable Al content by 25.3% and 20.8% respectively. Dolomite was the most effective to increase soil pH, whilst Biochar SP50 provided the highest soil available water pores (15.25% vol.). Soybean gave better yield when the soil was treated with dolomite, Biochar SP50, and organic fertilizer plus. Reduction in soil acidity and improvement of soil available water pores most likely were responsible factors to give better yields of soybean planted on acid soil.

Abstract

Shallow water table (SWT) is an acute problem in cultivating vegetables at riparian wetland during transitional period from dry to rainy season. SWT limits volume of aerobic rhizosphere and reduces oxygen availability. Meanwhile, 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) has been known for its effectiveness in offsetting negative effects of abiotic stresses. The aim of this study was to evaluate effectiveness of ALA application at pre- or during continuous 20-day SWT exposure in snap bean. SWT exposures were set at depth of 5 cm (SWT-5), 10 cm (SWT-10) and 15 cm (SWT-15) below substrate surface. ALA was applied at 4 days before SWT initiation (14 DAP), mid of SWT exposure period (28 DAP), or at end of SWT exposure (38 DAP). Results of this study indicated that SWT exposure affected growth of shoots and roots, leaf water status, proline content, and SPAD value in snap bean plant. Shallowest water table (SWT-5) caused the most severe effects. Effectiveness of ALA application was depended on time difference between ALA application and onset of SWT exposure. ALA application did not significantly improve recovery of snap bean plants after SWT exposure was terminated.

Abstract

The present study was designed to study the possibility of beetroots to be cultivated at suboptimal elevations in the tropics. Four pot experiments were conducted in the field each at 1700, 850, 520 and 320 m asl (above sea level) in the region of Malang, East Java. A randomized block design with four replicates was used to impose the treatment of nitrogen (N) fertilizer consisting of 0, 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 g N/plant (~ 0, 100, 200 and 300 kg N/ha). In the experiments at the elevation of 1700 m and 320 m asl, the treatment of 0 and 80 g chicken manure per plant (~ 0 and 20 t/ha) was involved. The treatment of 0 and 0.6 g P2O5 and 0 and 0.8 g K2O per plant was involved in the experiment at 850 m and 520 m asl respectively. Plant growth (total dry weight, leaf area and leaf number) was observed on day 20, 40, 60 and 90 after sowing by destructive plant samplings. In the present paper, data were reorganized to analyze the effect of elevation and N fertilizer on plant growth with the elevation as the main factor and N fertilizer as the sub factor.

Abstract

Botanical insecticides are considered biodegradable, environmentally compatible, and less toxic to non-target organisms than synthetic insecticides. Unfortunately, they are not attractive to Indonesian farmers due to its instability against light, temperature, and microbes, as well as they, have short storage time. This research was intended to produce a distinctive botanical insecticide that is resilient against the light, microbes, and durable. The role of curcumin in the stability and efficacy of neem (Azadirachta indica) leaves extract as a botanical insecticide against soybean pod sucking bug, Riptortus linearis was evaluated in the laboratory. This research was conducted at the Organic Chemistry Laboratory of Chemistry Department, Faculty of Science and Technology Airlangga University and the Plant Protection Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture University of Wijaya Kusuma Surabaya, Indonesia, from March to October 2016. The results explained that curcumin is no effect on increase the stability of neem leaves extract solution towards UV light irradiation. However, it can increase the insecticide activity of neem leaves extract solution up to 96% mortality against soybean pod sucking bug, R. linearis. The increase of the bioactivity refers to the anti insecticidal activity of ferulic acid formed from the degradation of curcumin.

Abstract

Each plant genotype has its own photosynthetic parameters required to run crop growth model. The research is aimed to characterize photosynthetic parameters particularly maximum photosynthesis and initial light use efficiency of two soybean varieties widely planted in Indonesia, Dena-1 and Anjasmoro. Photosynthetic performances were measured in a designed experiment to study the effect of Actinomycetes spp. on growth and yield of soybean. Photosynthesis was measured using an open chamber portable photosynthetic system (LI-6400), at variable Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR), i.e. 500; 1,000; 1,500; and 2,000 µmol (photon)/m2/s. The photosynthetic light response curve (PN/I curve) was developed using Solver function of Microsoft Excel. Maximum gross photosynthesis (Pgmax) of Dena-1 is 45.64 μmol (CO2)/m2/s, while Anjasmoro variety is only 34.81 μmol (CO2)/m2/s. Quantum yield at low light (initial light use efficiency) of Dena-1 is also higher with the value of 0.068 μmol (CO2)/μmol(photons) compared to Anjasmoro that have 0.058 μmol (CO2)/μmol (photons). Hence light response curve of Dena-1 variety is consistently higher than Anjasmoro. Under Actinomycetes spp. treatment the light response curve of Dena-1 is higher than Anjasmoro at PAR lower than 706 μmol (photon)/m2/s and higher at PAR above it.

Abstract

Sugarcane is an essential industrial that produce sugar in the world. Scirpophaga excerptalis attacks can reduce the productivity of sugarcane up to 34%. To enhance the resistance to multiple stresses, Silicon is one of the elements for its role. This research aimed to determine the effect of the provision of silica fertilizer as part of the Integrated Pest Management strategy. This research was conducted in the Plant Protection Department, Indonesian Sugar Research Institute. The compost given as treatment in this research was straw, cane, and corn composts. Organic silica fertilizer (compost) provides the same effect as inorganic silica fertilizer in increasing the induction of sugarcane resistance to sugarcane top borer (S. excerptalis). Rice straw compost was a compost fertilizer that provides the best sugarcane resistance to sugarcane top borer compared to sugarcane plants that treated with sugarcane and corn leave to compost

Abstract

The field expedition has collected 144 samples at the ecotype level of seven wild alfalfa species, which are the source of adaptive properties. One part of the original seeds has been placed for medium-term storage as the gene pool, and the other part has been sown in the culture to use wild-growing species in recurrent breeding. It has been found that the productivity of wild species is inferior to that of M. sativa L., but they are valuable as a source of adaptation traits: drought tolerance, salt tolerance, and winter hardiness, which are important with the development of recurrent breeding to adapt the crops to the global climate change. The yield of the hybrid plants in the offspring from crossing seven ecotypes of M. falcata L. (yellow-flowered) with M. sativa L. (blue-flowered) using a marker-trait has been established: the hybrid nature of the plants obtained from free entomophilic cross-pollination has been established, and the yield of the hybrid plants has amounted to 61 – 91 %. In the hybrid population obtained from M. sativa sybsp. transoxona, M. falcata L., and M. tianschanica Vass. upon crossing them, 50 best phenotypes have been selected to continue the backcrossing with M. sativa L.
