Abstract

Vegetation recovery is essential in land restoration after the eruption of Mount Merapi in 2010. Vegetation is a source of organic material that produces root exudate containing organic acids. These acids accelerate the dissolution process of volcanic material so that it affects the soil characteristics. This study was conducted to analyze the effect of four types of perennial plants on soil chemical and physical characteristics. The soil samples were taken on the area planted with cinnamon, albizia, bamboo, and acacia, at depths of 0 – 10 cm, 10 – 20 cm, 20 – 30 cm, 30 – 40 cm, and 40 – 50cm. The soil chemical analysis carried out included pH H2O, pH KCl, pH NaF, C-organic, Humic acid and Fulvic acid, cation exchange capacity, Ca, Mg, K, Na, available P, base saturation, and particle size distribution. The results show that pH H2O, pH KCl, C-organic, humic acid and fulvic acid, CEC, K, Na, Ca, Mg, available P, base saturation, and particle size distribution were significantly affected by vegetation type. Meanwhile, the pH of NaF was not significantly influenced by vegetation type. Cinnamon is a plant that gives the strongest influence in the improvement of soil chemical-physical properties compared to the other three types of vegetation. Therefore cinnamon is quite prospective plant to be developed for post-eruption land reclamation.

Abstract

One of the constraints impeding soybean production in the tropics is yield losses due to the damage by pod feeding insects. The research objective was to identify the resistance of soybean genotypes to the pod feeders. The existence of the pod feeding insects was evaluated on 24 soybean genotypes planted in Ngawi (Indonesia) in 2016. The experiment was arranged in a randomized block design with two environmental conditions. The first environmental condition was plants controlled by insecticide during plant growth, and the second condition was plants controlled by insecticide only up to 45 days after planting (dap). The pod feeding insects included pod sucking bug (Riptortus linearis), pod borer (Etiella zinckenella), and podworm (Helicoverpa sp.). The damage intensity of pod sucking bug at 45 dap of controlled environment reached 60.24%, meanwhile the damage intensity of pod borer and podworm were 46.08% and 3.85%, respectively. This indicates that the natural population of pod sucking bug is relatively high and dominant. Of 24 soybean genotypes tested, NSP-16-2-8 was consistently resistant on environments with and without insecticide application, whereas NSP-16-1-4 was consistently resistant to the pod borer attack. Those genotypes were potential to be used as source of genes for pod feeding insects’ resistance in the breeding program.

Abstract

LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is a system of active remote sensing technology using a laser beam that has an invisible wave (Infrared) that can penetrate the leaf gap to produce topographic characteristics of the land surface. The research locations were in Tunas Baru Village Sekernan District, Muaro Jambi Regency, Jambi Province. The purpose of this study was to apply Airborne LiDAR technology along with interpretations in agriculture, especially land cover vegetation mapping in Jambi Province, which is a province that has a fairly extensive forest area. Speaking of that situation, a land cover map and classification are needed to find out which vegetation is dominant in the area. The data needed in this professional work class were DEM, DSM and orthophoto data to be processed into CHM (dataCrown Height Model) in order to facilitate digitization in determining density classes. At the same time, orthophoto was used to digitize the classification of vegetation types, which will produce output in the form of a map of land cover in Tunas Baru Village, Sekernan District, Muaro Jambi Regency, Jambi Province.

Abstract

Coastal sandy soil is usually dominated by sand fractions, having no micro pore complex that can bind water and store fertilizer nutrients. The application of zeolite rocks into the root zone of plants growing in sandy soil is expected to reduce nitrogen nutrient leaching.The research was carried out by using the greenhouse experiment method, arranged in a factorial completely randomized design. The first factor was activated zeolite rock doses, consisting of 7 levels, namely 0% (Z0), 1% (Z1), 2% (Z2), 3% (Z3), 4% (Z4), 5% (Z5), and 6% (Z6) per 10 kg of coastal sandy soils as planting media. Meanwhile, the second factor was nitrogen fertilizer doses, consisting of 3 levels, namely 75 kg (N1), 100 kg (N2), and 125 kg (N3) per hectare. The results showed that the application of zeolite rock to the planting media could increase the growth of corn plants fertilized with nitrogen. The best vegetative growth was obtained when 6% zeolite per 10 kg of planting media was applied. The application of 6% zeolite together with 125 kg per hectare N fertilizer resulted in the heaviest fresh plant biomass. The use of zeolite can increase the N-fertilizer uptake efficiency in the vegetative growth of corn plants grown in coastal sand soils.

Abstract

Klutuk banana leaf is widely used as food packaging material since it has large size and not easily torn. Many traditional packaging materials are recently abandoned, thus it is necessary to develop an active packaging having an advantage of synthetic packaging. This study aimed to create active packaging from methylcellulose (MC) added with glutaraldehyde (GA) and Klutuk banana leaf extract (EDPK), as well as to determine its properties and antioxidants. The casting method with GA as a crosslinker and EDPK as an antioxidant agent was used to make film/active packaging. Banana Klutuk leaves were dried using cabinet dryer for 24 hours and the leaf powder was extracted using maceration method with methanol 80%. The extract was concentrated with a rotary evaporator to be tested for its antioxidant capacity. The results showed that the film with EDPK addition exhibited dark green color. Tensile strength values increased when EDPK and GA were added at concentrations of 30 and 45%. However, EDPK film elongation was not affected by GA addition. Addition of EDPK decreased thermal stability by 25-45 oC, whereas the addition of GA improved thermal stability by 5-25 oC. Antioxidants in banana leaf extract can migrate to 10 and 50% simulant ethanol.

Abstract

Deli Serdang District is one of the regions producing red guava fruit in Sumatra Utara. Cultivation of fruit trees is never separated from pest disorders, which can cause a decrease in the quality and quantity of fruit. Then proper control is needed so that it can maintain the balance of insect populations in the field. This study aims to determine the type of parasitoid and parasitoid parasitic levels in red guava crops. Identification morphology of parasitoid?s fruit flies rearing from red guava fruit that had been attacked by fruit flies was taken from several locations of red guava crops in Deli Serdang District. Two species of parasitoid Psytalia sp. the parasitic fruit fly in the red guava crop.  The parasitoids that have been found then identified at LIPI, Cibinong, Bogor morphologically has many similarities with Psytalia walker and Psytalia walkeri so that identification of species is only made close to the morphology of the species. Only in two locations were found parasitoid?s rearing from infected fruit, namely Parasitization rate of 6.9% in Sei Beras Sekata village, and Kolam village of 3.6%.

Abstract

Rainfed area as one of rice production areas is facing drought due to climate change. Management of rainfed area is needed due to its contribution, in addition to the production of rice, in producing methane as a contributor to greenhouse gas emission. This research aimed to investigate the methane emission status and yield from rainfed rice system with manure and zeolite treatment on the bed system (surjan). The doses of manure were 5, 15 and 30 tons/ha and the zeolite was 1 and 2.5 tons/ha. The result showed that all treatment had no significant effect on daily methane fluxe and grain yield in surjan system. However, the combination of manure at 15 tons/ha with zeolite at 1 ton/ha promoted higher methane emissions (63.43 kg CH4/ha/season). In addition, the combination treatment of manure at 5 tons/ha with zeolite at 2.5 tons/ha contributed to obtain higher grain yield (6.9 tons/ha).

Abstract

Sitophilus oryzae L. is a primary pest that causes damage to stored sorghum. The aim of this study was to evaluate the susceptibility of some sorghum cultivars to S. oryzae infestations and the damage resulted during storage period. The research was carried out at Plant Pest and Disease Laboratory, Department Agroecotechnology, Faculty of Agriculture, Malikussaleh University from February to June 2017. Nine cultivars of sorghum were screened for their susceptibility to S. oryzae attacks and the damage resulted. The Dobie sesceptibility indexwas used to classify the susceptibility of sorghum cultivars. Susceptibility experiment of several sorghum cultivars to S. oryzae was done by no choice assay. The results exhibited that sorghum cv. Suri 3, Suri 4, Kawali, and Numbu was categorized as moderate. Cv. Samurai 1 was included in moderate to susceptible, and cv. Super 1, Super 2, Samurai 2, and Pahat were categorized as susceptible to S. oryzae. The susceptibility of sorghum cultivars was determined by high number of F1 progeny, the high percentage of seed weight loss, damaged seeds, low median development time and low width of sorghum seeds.
