Abstract

Rubber is one of the important commodities of the Indonesian economy. Nowadays, efforts to increase rubber production in Indonesia are done through increased innovation such as good planting material and using stimulant application. Superior rubber clones have varied performance and metabolism and their response to stimulants are varies. Stimulants application should be refered to plant physiological properties which is associated with latex forming metabolism. The use of superior rubber clones requires higher amount of fertilizer. The use of high yield clones will increase nutrients depletion from the soil, which in turn requires higher additional nutrients through fertilization. Fertilization done in based on nutrient analysis will give positive results on latex production and health of rubber plants. This study was conducted to assess the to evaluate ethephon stimulation and fertilization on latex yield production and physiological latex on different clones. This study was conducted in an experimental field situated at 2.9275° South and 104.5386° East of Indonesian Rubber Research Institute in South Sumatra. The experiment was laid out in Split Plot Design with 3 replications. The main plot is the rubber clones and sub plots are fertilization rate and ethephon stimulation. The rubber clones for this research i.e GT 1, BPM 24, PB 260 and IRR 112 were situated on the existing rubber plantation and planted in 2011 with 6 x 3 m planting spacing. Different fertilization rates were used in the experiment such as control (without fertilizer), 50% recommended rate (50 RR), 100% recommended rate (100 RR), and 150% recommended rate (150 RR). Ethephon stimulation was applied every two months during the observation period with a rate of S/2 d3 ET2.5% 6/y. Various parameters that were determined for this research study i.e: latex yield, physiological latex (sucrose, inorganic phosphorus, and thiol) and tapping panel dryness. Results showed that rubber yield such as latex production and dry rubber content were significantly affected by fertilization and ethephon stimulation. Latex characteristics of latex such as thiol, inorganic phosphate and sucrose were graded at an optimal range upon fertilization.

Abstract

The effects of foliar application of iron and zinc were evaluated on Guilanian landrace of common bean in Rice Research Institute of Iran. A factorial experiment with three replication was conducted based on randomized complete block design. Two doses of Fe as iron chelate (0 and 0.4%) and five doses of Zn as zinc chelate (0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4%) were sprayed at flowering and pod formation stages. The effects of iron and zinc in foliar form were significant on seed yield, a hundred seed weight and content of zinc and iron in aerial plant parts. The interaction effects of two factors was significant on seed yield, number of pods per plant, plant height, pod length, number of seeds per pod, a hundred seed weight and content of Zn and Fe in aerial parts of plant. In the absent of and 0.4% Fe foliar treatments, the highest value of seed yield were observed when 0.4% and 0.3% zinc were applied, respectively. The content of iron and zinc in aerial parts of plant were increased in line with foliar application of zinc. Spraying 0.4% Fe combined with 0.3% Zn was recommended for the yied improvement on common bean.

Abstract

One essential objective of rice breeding is to obtain high-yielding varieties. This study aimed to (1) determine the effect of genotype (G), environment (E), and genotype by environment (G×E) interaction on agronomic traits and yield of 12 lowland rice genotypes, (2) estimate variance components and repeatability (3) identify promising rice genotypes with good agronomic performance and high yield potential. The trials were conducted in three irrigated lowland locations from June to November 2020, using a randomized complete block design with three replications. The results showed that the G×E interaction effect was significant on days to flowering, days to harvest, plant height, number of tillers, and panicle length. The genotype's main effect was significant on yield. Four IPB lines (IPB189-F-13-1-1, IPB189-F-23-2-2, IPB193-F-17-2-3, and IPB193-F-30-2-1) had a higher average yield than Ciherang and Inpari 32 varieties. The IPB189-F-23-2-2 had a panicle length stability across the three test locations and a higher average yield than the checks.

Abstract

The aim of research is to reduce the utilization of water by irrigating the agricultural fields that have low moisture level through the implementation of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). The ARM-based irrigation solution consists of a Solar Tracking System, Wireless Information Unit (WIU), WSN and Remote Access. The Solar Tracking System utilizes maximum solar energy by using Light Dependent Resistor(LDR) to track the sun. The electric energy produced is stored in the battery which powers the ARM processor. Wireless Information Unit will collect the sensor information from Wireless Sensor Network through the use of Wi-Fi. The system monitors soil-moisture and controls the flow of water using a solenoid valve depending upon the set threshold. In the tank, Ultra Sonic sensor identifies the water level controlled by the WIU. An Android application helps the farmer to monitor the water flow and soil moisture remotely. The proposed water management methodologies for agriculture optimizes the water usage and such practices maintain the crop health, keep yield intact, and avoids human intervention. In this proposed system, soil moisture is maintained appropriately to ensure that a good harvest is obtained which in turn preserves different types of nutrients.

Abstract

As an export commodity, rubber is a major contributor to Indonesia's foreign exchange. Regarding the increase in rubber production, a study on combinations of growth regulators and rubber clones has been carried out based on plant growth and anatomical characteristics during the immature plant period. This research is conducted for eighteen months at the KSO Karang Inong plantations, PTPN-I, and PTPN-III, East Aceh District, using five clones. This study adopts a nested design with three factors: clones, Growth Regulators (GRs), and paclobutrazol. The clones used are PB 260, IRR 104, IRR 112, IRR 39, and 105. The GRs combination factor between IAA and Kinetin consists of seven levels and three levels of paclobutrazol. The results show that the rubber clones PB260 and IRR105 give higher stem girth and plant height than the other clones when applied with GRs at six different levels. The most expansive leaf area is found in clone IRR 104 compared to other clones. In addition, paclobutrazol affects plant height. Applying paclobutrazol can reduce plant height for all clones but increases stem girth, skin thickness, number and diameter of latex vessels, and total chlorophyll at 46 months after treatment.

Abstract

Fly ash is the residue of coal combustion that can potentially be an ameliorant. Unfortunately, its use is limited by government regulations that are classified as hazardous and toxic materials. This study examines the effectiveness of fly ash and cow manure as an ameliorant for Ultisols. The experiment was carried out by two factors, i.e., the dose of fly ash, namely 0, 50, 100, and 150 t/ha, and the quantity of cow manure, i.e., 10, 20, and 30 t/ha. The results show that fly ash and cow manure could be ameliorants for low-pH soils such as Ultisols. The suitable dose of fly ash and cow manure as ameliorants in this study are 50 t/ha and 20 t/ha, respectively. Increasing the amount of fly ash caused a decrease in the growth of water spinach, plant height, number of leaves, fresh plant weight, root length, and dry weight of the root. In addition, fly ash increased pH 6.66-7.30, total P 31.74-52.21 mg/100 g, and total K 16.19-25.75 mg/100 g.

Abstract

In order to examine the potency of a non-typical land for cultivation of Cilembu sweet potato (Rancing cultivars of I. batatas) to generate a similar sweet taste with that when planted in its typical land, evaluation of sweetness, sugar and starch concentration of the cultivated sweet potato was carried out at Cimaung and Cilembu villages. Results indicated that concentration of starch in the fresh tuber that harvested at Cilembu and Cimaung were 37% and 35%, and decreased to 19.6% and 31.5%, within 5 weeks after storage, respectively. High Pressure Liquid Chromatography analysis showed that fresh sweet potato consisted of soluble sugar of fructose, glucose and sucrose, while baked sweet potato showed the presence of maltose, fructose, glucose and sucrose. The total soluble sugar in the freshly harvested sweet potato from Cilembu was higher than that of Cimaung, 4.0% compared to 2.6% and reach maximum to 9.4% and 6.0%, at 4 weeks after storage. Principle component analysis indicated that starch and sugar content significantly showed positive correlation with elevation, rainfall, soil nutrient content, C/N ratio and cation exchange capacity levels. The tubers produced from Cilembu had sweet taste, while those from Cimaung had normal taste.

Abstract

Applying organic fertilizer and intercropping systems are among the techniques for preserving land sustainability in organic vegetable production systems. In organic vegetable production, the use of liquid organic fertilizer has been suggested in addition to the use of solid organic fertilizer. This study evaluates how growth and yields of sweet corn and peanuts grown utilizing row intercropping respond to different vermicomposting dosages. A factorial experiment is arranged using a split-plot design with three replicates. The main plot is vermicomposting dosages; 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 Mg/ha, and the sub-plot was the applications of liquid organic fertilizer, not fertilized and fertilized with liquid organic fertilizer. Results show that the application of liquid organic fertilizer elevated plant height and leaf area, length, diameter, and weight of husked ears of sweet corn. Vermicomposting increased plant height, husked ear length, husked ear diameter, and husked ear fresh weight of sweet corn. Twenty Mg/ha is the best dosage for producing sweet corn intercropped with peanuts. However, using vermicompost and liquid organic fertilizers did not increase the growth and yields of peanuts. Evaluation of nutrient uptakes by intercropped crops, sweet corn, and peanut, in organic production systems, should be the subject of further study.

Abstract

This study was carried out in an area cultivated with durian in Gua Musang, Kelantan with a soil series of Rengam-Jerangau. The objective of this study was to determine the physicochemical properties of soil cultivated with durian at different elevations and samplings. The soil composite sampling was determined at three elevations (top, middle and bottom elevation) marked using GPS coordinate with two different depths (0-15 cm and 15-30 cm). The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) of the soil texture is clay with bulk density ranging between 0.98 to 1.11 g/cm3. Significant parameters at alpha value of 95% include total carbon content (0.903% until 1.389%), total sulphur content (0.059% to 0.100%), exchangeable bases calcium, potassium and sodium at 3.520 cmolc/kg to 5.582 cmolc/kg, 0.380 to 0.581 cmolc/kg and 0.101 to 0.155 cmolc/kg respectively. From the significant parameters, only exchangeable potassium was affected by the by both elevation and depth of the sampling while the other parameters were only affected by the elevation. As some of the nutrients had been classified as low, extensive measures need to be done for healthy growth performance.

Abstract

Celery (Apium graveolens L.) is an annual plant that grows optimally in Indonesia’s highlands. The provision of endophytic bacteria has the role of plant protection, increasing agronomic growth and plant physiology, and overcoming environmental stresses. This study aims to assist the adaptation of highland celery varieties in the lowlands due to the decreasing agricultural highland and increase their production with endophytic bacteria applications. The experiment was executed in Bogor, Indonesia using a randomized block design with two factors. The celery variety served as the first factor [Amigo and Aroma (highland variety), and Summer Green (lowland variety)], and endophytic bacteria was the second factor (control, APE35, a combination of APE35+BAT, APE35+BAT+EQ26, and the PTM3 consortium). The result showed that endophytic bacteria helped the plants to adjust growth from highland to lowlands and increase yield. In lowland, Amigo showed shorter in height but it has a significantly higher stalk number, carotenoids, and flavonoids than Summer Green (lowland control). Endophytic bacteria increased plant growth, N, P, pigments, and flavonoids. APE35 or PTM3 with Amigo produced significantly higher leaf area, number of tillers, number of leaflets, leaf area, head fresh weight (78.529 and 75.054 g/plant), total fresh weight (81.67 and 85.395 g/plant), and total flavonoids (1484.818 and 1502.459 mg QE/100 g) than Summer Green without endophytic bacteria.
