Abstract

Nutrient elements that are needed by plants during its growth and development is nitrogen. Nitrogen deficiency can cause plants to become necrosis so that plants are not able to photosynthesize well, thus result in lack of food needed by plants. Microalgae can provide nitrogen for rice crops due to its activity. The aim of this research was to know the effect of microalgae from nontidal swamp land to reduce the use of inorganic N fertilizer in paddy field. The study was conducted from January to April 2017, using factorial completely randomized design with two factors, namely isolate and dosage of nitrogen fertilizer. The first factor is the type of the isolate (I), consisting of cultures from the area of rice cultivation (I1), the culture originating from the area around the rice fields (I2) and the cultures of area without rice cultivation (I3) area. The second factor is the dose of nitrogen fertilizer (N) consisting of 0%, 50% and 100%. The results showed that the treatment of the isolate (I) or dosage of nitrogen fertilizer had a significant effect on the weight of 1000 filled grains and the weight of empty grains in the generative phase of rice plant. The interaction between both treatments had a significant effect on the generative (production) phase. The microalgae culture from area of rice cultivation (I1) can contribute nitrogen requirement of 16.23% - 48.71% with an abundance of 7.48 cells ml-1, with the requirement of rice plant nitrogen fertilizer of 45-135 kg ha-1.

Abstract

Oil palm requires nutrients both macro and micro nutrients for its growth and development processes. This study aimed to study the morphological and physiological responses of immature oil palm plantations at 1 year of planting to the provision of organic fertilizer and micro fertilizers as a complement to inorganic fertilizers.The research was arranged in a Randomized Completely Block Design (RCBD). The treatment applied consisted of 7 treatments, namely one control treatment (basic fertilizer) and six treatments from a combination of type and dose of fertilizer, consisting of single fertilizer, compound fertilizer, organic fertilizer and micro fertilizer. Based on the results, single and compound fertilizers accompanied by micro fertilizers (M1a, M1b) had a significant effect on plant height showing 13.78%, 27.55%, 25.11%, and 54.18% higher than others andon length and width of the 9th midrib reaching 7.47%, 22.40% and 51.04% better than others. The best response of growth of stem circumference at 6 MAT was observed in PO1 reaching 112.43%, better than M1a (111.96%)and M1b (109.20), while the lowest was observed in PO0 (97.84%). Meanwhile, chlorophyll and stomata were implied by a package of compound fertilizer and single fertilizer. The highest leaf chlorophyll content was in the M0a fertilizer treatment, while the highest stomata level was in the M1a treatment.

Abstract

Bark consumption is defined as the thickness of sliced bark per time unit. This research, aiming to identify the effects of direction, panel height, and tapping frequency on daily bark consumption, was carried out at Sungei Putih Research Center, North Sumatera and several estates in Lampung (Kedaton, Bergen, and Way Lima) from January to March 2018. The observations involved 15 tapping tasks consisting of GT 1, PB 260, and mixed clones. Bark samples were collected from 10 randomized trees in each task. Tapping direction was distinguished as downward tapping and upward tapping, while panel height was classified into 50 cm, 50 – 100 cm, and 100 – 130 cm in downward tapping and 130 – 150 cm, 150 – 170 cm, and 170 cm in upward tapping. Tapping frequency effect was investigated in a trial plot using frequency of once in three days (d3), once in four days (d4), once in five days (d5), once in six days (d6), and once in eight days (d8) on the basal panel (B0-2). Bark consumption was measured directly using a digital caliper. The observation result indicated that upward tapping had higher bark consumption than downward tapping. In downward tapping, the lower tapping position, the higher bark consumption would be, whilst in upward tapping, bark consumption increased along with the panel height. Low tapping frequency (d4, d5, d6, and d8) showed higher bark consumption per tapping than d3, yet they had lower cumulative bark consumption per year.

Abstract

The research aimed to study the effects of storage time of cacao fruit before fermentation, aeration rate and temperature of fermenter during fermentation on the color value of dry cocoa  beans, including the value of L *, a *, b *, chroma, hue, and RGB, and their relationship using response surface methodology.. The results showed that storage time of cacao fruits before fermentation, aeration rate and temperature of the fermenter had an influence on the color values of L *, a *, b *, chroma, hue, and RGB of dried cocoa beans produced. The highest brightness prediction value of chroma color was ± 26 obtained in the treatment of the storage time of 9-day, aeration rate of 0.4 liters/minute, and fermenter temperature of 50 ℃. Meanwhile, the highest hue prediction value was 51.8 obtained in the treatment of storage time of 9 days, aeration rate of 0.3 liters / minute, and fermenter temperature of 50 ℃. Furthermore, the RGB color of dried cocoa beans showed that the color range of R (red) and G (green) of cocoa beans after fermentation was higher when compared to cocoa beans without fermentation, while the value of color B (blue) had a different tendency showing  that dried fermented cocoa beans had a lower blue range compared to unfermented cocoa beans.

Abstract

Complementary food should be added to the diet of the babies in addition to breast milk from 6 months onward and the food should be sufficient for the baby’s nutrition needs. Complementary feeding using baby biscuit made of yellow pumpkin flour and the addition of coconut flour is an effort to improve nutrition through local food diversification approach. The purpose of this study was to determine the best biscuit formulation and to test the physicochemical properties of the selected formula. This research used completely randomized experimental design consisting of four formulae of yellow pumpkin flour, i.e. 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%. The results of organoleptic tests showed that the best formula of the biscuit as complementary food is 25% yellow pumpkin flour and 12% of coconut flour. Consumption of two servings of biscuits can meet the nutritional adequacy of the babies except calcium. The biscuits can be kept for 92 days 8 hours under open conditions. In addition, the biscuits have good physical properties in terms of water absorption and hardness.

Abstract

The longer vase life of chrysanthemum cut flower is one of the preferable quality traits in marketing for growers, retailers and consumers.  Several compounds, like ascorbic acid, have been reported to be able to prolong the post-harvest quality and longevity of cut flowers. Thus, the purpose of the study was to assess the ascorbic acid effects in several concentrations (0, 100, 200, and 300 ppm) in extending the fresh life of two chrysanthemum cultivars, i.e. cv. Remix (spray) and Yellow Fiji (standard).  The results showed that the termination of flower freshness was visually characterized by wilting of leaves and florets and the change in floret color (paler).  The supplementation of ascorbic acid solution at the concentrations of 200 and 300 ppm prevented and lengthened leaves and florets turgidity and postponed the wilting up to 2 – 3 days compared to control.  At the same concentrations, the solution also slowed down the degradation rates of chlorophyll content on leaves during vase life periods.

Abstract

Indonesian rice yields are still relatively low. One of the efforts to increase the yield of rice plants is to trim the foliages before flowering, in addition to the application of ‘Unitas Super’ liquid organic fertilizer (LOF). The study was carried out in the Lubuk Lintah Village, Padang City in May - September 2017. The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of pruning, as a source of forage, and the concentration of ‘Unitas Super’ liquid organic fertilizer in improving rice yields. The experiment was arranged in split plot design with main plots consisting of 2 levels, namely pruning at 45 days and without pruning. The subplots consisted of 3 concentrations of ‘Unitas Super’ liquid organic fertilizer, namely 0 ml L-1, 50 ml L-1, and100 ml L-1. All treatments were replicated 3 times. Data were analyzed statistically using the F test at 5% and tested using LSD at 5%. According to the results of the observations, it can be concluded that pruning reduced the weight of 1000 seeds and panicle length, but did not reduce the yield of harvested dry grain and harvest index. Application of ‘Unitas Super’ liquid organic fertilizer did not significantly increase the growth and yield of Black Madras purple rice. The highest dry grain yield was 4.04 t ha-1 observed in plants sprayed with 50 ml L-1 ‘Unitas Super’ liquid organic fertilizer without pruning treatment.
