Abstract

Objective: This study aims to estimate the success rate of bioherbicides and observe their potential as a more environmentally friendly and sustainable means of weed control, particularly those based on plant water extracts, in inhibiting the growth and suppressing the germination of weeds. Methodology: This research is systematic in nature, in the form of a literature review of experiments that have been published in the last ten years. This literature search was conducted across database systems, both national and international, and the selection of articles followed the PRISMA methodology. Results: A review of research in various fields, both experimental and non-experimental, shows that plant water extracts, whether sourced from cultivated plants, weeds, medicinal plants, or aromatic plants, can inhibit weed sprouts, root growth, shoots, and biomass, and this can be done for various types of weeds. Experimental studies show that bioherbicides derived from aqueous extracts of various weed types, when grown to optimal levels, actively participate in regulating their growth patterns. Findings: Most studies show a tendency toward an increase in root shoot extracts that have a modulating effect, along with an increase in the concentration of extracts that have an inhibitory effect. Novelty: This review presents a comprehensive, experimental-based synthesis approach specifically for the use of water extracts as environmentally friendly bioherbicides in solvents. Originality: This article synthesizes aspects of extract sources, allelopathy mechanisms, and factors determining effectiveness to formulate recommendations for the application and development of sustainable bioherbicides. Conclusion: Bioherbicides derived from aquatic plant extracts have the potential to serve as an alternative, effective, and environmentally friendly technology for weed control. However, this still requires further formulation standards and field validation. Document type: Literature review.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to determine the effect of adding durian seed flour (Durio zibethinus L) on the physical properties of edible straw. Methodology: This study used an experimental method by producing durian seed flour and edible straw, then conducting several physical tests to determine the characteristics of the edible straw product. The design used in this study was a completely randomized design (CRD) using three levels of durian seed flour percentage (50%, 60%, 70%). Data analysis was performed using SPSS with ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) at a significance level of <0.05. If there was a significant effect, it was followed by Duncan's test. Results: The study showed that an increase in the percentage of durian seed flour significantly reduced the swelling ratio, indicating an increase in resistance to water absorption. The lowest swelling ratio values were obtained in the 60% and 70% treatments. In the temperature resistance test, all treatments were stable at 5°C and 25°C, while at 45°C, the 60% and 70% treatments showed better stability than the 50% treatment. The parameters of color, solubility, thickness, and texture showed no significant differences between treatments. Findings: Differences in durian seed flour percentage had a significant effect on several physical characteristics of edible straw. Novelty: This study utilized durian seeds as flour as the main ingredient in the production of edible straw. Originality: This study utilizes durian seed waste as an alternative to plastic straws. Conclusion: The addition of durian seed flour affects the swelling test results and resistance at 45°C. Type of Paper: research article.

Abstract

Purpose : This research aims to provide a scientific basis for controlling environmental pollution due to rubber processing industry activities and to support more environmentally sound industrial practices. Methodology: The research method used is a quantitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach including soil sampling carried out at two locations, namely points affected by waste seepage and control points (not affected) as a comparison. Soil samples are then analyzed in the laboratory to measure physico-chemical parameters including pH, Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), nitrogen content and soil texture. Results: The results of the investigation into the impact of rubber waste infiltration show that the infiltration of untreated rubber industry liquid waste at PT. Bukit Angkasa Makmur (BAM), Bengkulu, triggers a decline in water and soil quality. This is characterized by a spike in BOD parameters (93–9343mg/L), COD, and TSS. This condition causes damage to the ecosystem and threatens the availability of clean water for local residents. Conclusion: Investigation of the impact of rubber waste infiltration shows that inadequately treated rubber industrial wastewater infiltration results in serious environmental damage, such as groundwater pollution, decreased fertility, and the formation of anaerobic conditions due to high concentrations of BOD (93-9,343 mg/L), COD, and TSS. The implementation of Waste Water Treatment Plants (IPAL) based on 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) is very urgent to minimize pollution and restore soil quality. Type of Paper : Research article.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to predict erosion levels and formulate land conservation directions in the Cikamiri Sub-Watershed as an effort to control land degradation and reduce the risk of hydrological disasters. This study is important considering the high potential for erosion that can trigger sedimentation, landslides, and floods in the Cikamiri Watershed area. Methodology: The study used a spatial quantitative approach with the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) method based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The analyzed parameters included rainfall erosivity (R), soil erodibility (K), slope length and steepness (LS), crop management (C), and soil conservation practices (P). Furthermore, erosion control strategies were formulated using SWOT analysis based on the internal and external conditions of the study area. Results: The prediction results showed that the Cikamiri Sub-Watershed was dominated by a very slight erosion hazard level of 43%, while very severe erosion reached 23%, distributed in areas with steep slopes and residential areas. Findings: Land cover factors, slope steepness, and the low presence of vegetation cover in certain areas were the dominant factors influencing erosion levels. Novelty: This study integrates USLE- and GIS-based erosion prediction with SWOT analysis to produce more applicable land conservation directions at the sub-watershed level. Originality: Describes the new or innovative elements of the research that distinguish it from previous studies. This can involve new approaches, new methods, or new findings. Conclusion: Erosion control in the Cikamiri Sub-Watershed needs to be directed through vegetation strengthening, the implementation of soil conservation, spatial planning management, and sustainable community involvement.
