This work aims to study the effect on the productivity and quality variation of alfalfa using the two different fertilization recipes: F1 and F2 along with two different cultivation method in soilless: coconut fiber bag CF, Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) and in soil So. Number of leaves, stem length, number of flowers, crude protein, fiber and ash content of alfalfa plants were measured during the three cuttings time of the production cycle. In the productivity phase, results showed that during the three cuttings repetition, the number of leaves, stem length and number of flowers of alfalfa were in favor of the treatment of coconut fiber bags and the F1 fertilization recipe (CF1) followed by NFT with a good interaction noticeable at this combination level (CF1) with the cutting 1. As for the quality variation phase, the results showed that the crude protein and ash content are in favor of alfalfa grown in soilless CF2; CF1; NFTF1 and NFTF2. As for fiber content, F1 was the most favorable and NFTF1 reported higher fiber content than coconut fiber bags. Concerning the cutting system, cut 1 had a large impact on chemical composition. In summary, alfalfa grown in soilless is more productive and succeeded in the production cycle and the quality variation of alfalfa.

After being harvested, mango fruit will quickly spoil due to the high water content in the fruit, so efforts need to be made to process it to extend its shelf life, one of which is processing it into jam. To get good jam you need the right composition of sugar, acid and pectin. The part of the mango fruit that is widely consumed and processed is the flesh, while the skin and seeds are not widely used even though the skin of the mango fruit contains quite high pectin. This research aims to determine the effect of the combination of mango flesh and mango skin on spreadability, total soluble solids, and panelists' preferences for jam. The method used is Completely Randomized Design (CRD) 1 factor, namely a combination of mango skin and mango flesh with 5 treatment levels: P1 (20%: 80%), P2 (30%: 70%), P3 (40%: 60%), P4(50%: 50%) and P5 (60%: 40%). Parameters observed: spreadability, total dissolved solids, and preference test. Data were analyzed using Variance Analysis and the smallest significant difference (if there is a difference) with a confidence level of 5%. The liking test will be carried out on 30 panelists (untrained) using a 5-level liking scale: very dislike (1), dislike (2), neutral (3), like (4) and very like (5). The results of the study showed that the higher the use of mango peel pulp and the less mango fruit pulp, the lower the spreading power, where the highest spreading power was in treatment P1 and was not different in treatment P2. However, the total dissolved solids value is getting higher. Panelists liked the color, taste and spreadability of treatments P1, P2 and P3 (not significantly different), while the aroma was preferred up to treatment P4.

The coast of Surabaya City is dominated by mangrove forest ecosystems. The mangrove forest experiences a lot of shrinkage every year. The shrinkage that occurs in mangrove forests is not only caused by natural factors (abrasion and wind) but also due to logging activities by local communities. The degradation that occurs in mangrove forests is largely influenced by waves and tides. The existence of mangrove forests is thought to be very important for reducing the threat of degradation and can play a role in mitigating damage to existing ecosystems. The function of mangrove forests in mitigating the threat of degradation has encouraged a deeper study of mangrove forests which are thought to have a physical function as a barrier to ecosystem damage. The method used is a survey method with sampling using a transect line technique. The data collection technique in the field uses a transect line technique whose placement has been designed. The research results showed that three types were found, namely Avicennia marina, Rhizophora Apiculata, Ceriops candra. The tree level is calculated by the cover and density values (trees/ha) to determine the standard criteria for determining mangrove forest damage. The cover level is very high with a final value of 99.61%. The results of the calculation of the density value (trees/ha) are above>150. amounting to 14,866.67, this shows that the density of trees in the Gunung Anyar mangrove forest is very high. Based on data from analysis of the Gunung Anyar mangrove forest, in general it has the ability to minimize degradation.

In order to explore the photosynthetic physiological response characteristics of lettuce under different soil moisture conditions, the photosynthetic indexes and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters of lettuce under different soil moisture gradients were determined by pot water control experiment. The results showed that with the decrease of soil moisture content, Pn, Tr, Gs, Ci, Fv/Fm, ΦPSII and qP of lettuce leaves all showed a downward trend, while NPQ increased with the decrease of soil moisture content. Among them, the water holding capacity in the field was 55~60%, and the net photosynthetic rate of lettuce was the highest, indicating that mild drought promoted photosynthesis of lettuce.

Irrigation of crops in the upland is one major problem in crop production because of water availability during the dry season which includes the right irrigation water method, one of major factors in crop production. The main objectives of the study were to assess the growth and yield of organically grown pineapple at different water management; and to evaluate the cost and economic returns of organically grown pineapple at different water management. Study conducted at BPSU Bangkal, Abucay, Bataan (N 14°46’ East 120°30’). The total rainfall depth at BPSU-AWS Station for July 2020 to June 2022 was 5,002.4 mm during the study period. The micro-sprinkler irrigation system (90 lph, 5.5 m – 12.5 m WD) was used to supplement the irrigation water. Four treatments were subjected for verification (T1 – no supplemented water, T2 – Irrigate up to 30% soil MC, T3 - Irrigate up to 50% soil MC, and T4 – Irrigate up to 70% soil MC) with the aid of an Atmometer and Soil Moisture Meter. Pineapple (T4) has 72.7 cm high, 109.5 cm crown diameter with 25.7 leaves, and T4 has the most number of large size (126/179). Pineapple production has a good return in terms of income, and ROI, and has a short payback period compared with other commodities. With the application of supplemented irrigation water to upland and rolling production areas, the farmer’s income could increase with the right irrigation method for specific and selected crops to be raised.

Pineapple (T4) has 72.7 cm high, 109.5 cm crown diameter with 25.7 leaves, and T4 has the most number of large size (126/179). Pineapple production has a good return in terms of income, and ROI, and has a short payback period compared with other commodities. With the application of supplemented irrigation water to upland and rolling production areas, the farmer’s income could increase with the right irrigation method for specific and selected crops to be raised.","PeriodicalId":7435,"journal":{"name":"Agricultural Science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44328755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
