Percentage of Carcass and Protein Content of Breast Meat of Native Chicken Given Apu-Apu Flour (Pistia stratiotes)
No full textThe research aimed to determine the percentage of carcass and protein content of super native chicken breast meat given rations containing apu-apu flour (Pistia stratiotes). The research design used was completely randomized design (C.R.D.) with five treatments and three replications. Each test consisted of three super three-month-old native chickens. Apu-apu flour levels in each treatment, namely P0 (0%), P1 (5%), P2 (10%), P3 (15%) and P4 (20%). The study was conducted for four weeks. The percentage of carcasses in each treatment were P0 (67.51%), P1 (69.33%), P2 (69.47%), P3 (68.76%) and P4 (70.88%). Furthermore, protein content in breast meat, namely P0 (25.21%), P1 (26.03%), P2 (25.43%), P3 (25.86%) and P4 (25.35%).  There were no significant effects (P 0.05) of fluorine in rations on the carcass percentage and protein content of super native chicken breast meat. The highest average value of carcass percentage was in the treatment of 20% Pistia stratiotes flour, while the highest breast meat protein content was in the treatment of 5% Pistia stratiotes flour
The Impact of Road Light on Growth and Result of Soybean Plant
Get PDFUntil now, soybean is still one of the priority food commodities in Indonesia. in the agricultural revitalization program launched by the government in 2005, due to the high price volatility that did not rule out the possibility of shaking the Indonesian economy. Soybean plants can provide positive and negative responses to environmental changes growing above and in the soil. This response can be known from phenotypic and physiological changes in plants. The environment on land which influences the growth of soybean plants mainly is the duration and intensity of irradiation, air temperature, CO2 content in the atmosphere. The study aims to determine the impact of street lighting on the growth and yield of soybean plants. The study used a Randomized Block Design Method with 3 treatments,  and each treatment was repeated 9 times, so that it takes 27 treatment plots. J0= Distance of street lighting to soybean land (meters), J1: 50 meters, J2: 60 meters, and J3: 70 meters. Observations were made one week after planting at 7-day intervals for growth parameters (plant height and number of leaves), while for the production parameters (Number of Content Pods/Plants, Dry Weight (DW) 100 Seeds, DW Seeds/Plots, and DW Seeds/Ha) are carried out after harvest. From the results of the study it can be concluded that there are real differences in the parameters of growth and production (number of filled pods, DW 100 seeds, DW seeds/plot, and DW seeds/ha), where the J3 treatment is capable of producing 2.89 tons/ha (an increase in dry weight of seeds/ha by 28.4%), compared to J1 2.24 tonnes/ha , although not significantly different from Treatment  J
Population of Natural Enemies in Three Varieties of Rice Plants in Turikale Subdistrict, Maros District
No full textRice (Oryza sativa L.) is an annual crop that plays an important role in meeting the food sources of the Indonesian population. In addition, rice plants have a diversity of insects as their natural enemy. This study aims to determine the population of natural enemies of 3 rice varieties, namely Inpari 30, Ciliwung, and Mekongga varieties. The research location is the rice fields in Turikale Subdistrict, Maros District. The method used for the study was the survey location of rice fields with each paddy field size of about 20 x 15 m. The results showed that there were 3 types of predators namely Lycosa, Coccinella, and Orthetrum which were found in each variety with varied total numbers at every 2-week observation interval. The highest population of Lycosa was found in the Inpari 30 (6 wap) variety, the highest Coccinella population also was found in the Inpari 30 (10 wap) variety, while the highest Orthetrum population was found in the Mekongga variety (6 wap). The highest proportion of each variety was Lycosidae 50% in the Inpari 30 variety, Lycosidae 51.35% in the Ciliwung variety, and Lycosidae 44.44% in the Mekongga variet
A STUDY OF POPULATION PRESSURE TOWARD AGRICULTURE LAND IN MOJOLABAN SUBDISTRICT, SUKOHARJO – CENTRAL JAVA
No full textIndonesia is an agricultural country in the tropic area with a high potential of agricultural land. This condition is a good ecosystem for human, animal and plant life. With all those potentials, the population in Indonesia has reached more than 260 million people currently. Surely, such a large population brings logical consequences in which a large amount of land must be provided by the State to support the housing needs and to meet the food and clothing needs. As a matter of fact, the population of Indonesia continues to increase over the time. The increase in population in many areas has caused the conversion of agricultural land into residential land. Therefore, the agricultural land continues to have pressure constantly. The Population pressure to agricultural land is a comparison between the number of people and the minimum land area to be able to live properly. This study aims to analyse the variations of population pressure on agricultural land in each village in Mojolaban Sub-District. The research method used to analyse the population pressure was by utilizing the formula of Otto Sumarwoto I, where residents are considered to only live on cultivated agricultural land. The results showed that population pressure toward agricultural land in Mojolaban Sub District was high. There were 11 villages and 4 villages that were categorized as high and low population pressure on agricultural land respectively
Using Mobile Instant Messaging in Teaching Vocabulary to Pre-intermediate EFL Learners: The Case of WhatsApp
Get PDFSmartphones are becoming an increasingly common part of our daily lives. Applications used in these systems are extremely varied due to their extraordinary efficiency. With respect to language teaching, the use of these technologies has opened up new doors, changing innovatively the way teachers teach and students learn. Accordingly, this study aimed to find out the impacts of using WhatsApp as a mobile instant messaging application on teaching vocabulary among pre-intermediate EFL learners. To this end, 60 Iranian pre-intermediate EFL learners were selected from a private English Language Institute. Then, they were randomly assigned to two equal groups- an experimental group and a control group. They were pre-tested by a researcher-made vocabulary test. Then, the treatment was applied to both groups. As the treatment, the control group was taught with traditional activities whereas the experimental group was taught with the use of mobile application (WhatsApp).

Designing HOTS-based Digital Media to Teach Writing: Exploring Students’ Need Analysis
No full text21st Century skills are one of the educational goals in Indonesia. One of the main goals is enable students to compete at the global level. As a consequence, HOTS-based learning is introduced through 2013 curriculum. In this case, media, materials and teachers should be able to facilitate the students getting used to implement HOTS. To fulfil these challenges, this study investigated the students’ needs which are then used as a basis in the development of digital media. This study is classified into research and development (R D). A questionnaire was employed to take the data and was distributed to 83 senior high school students. Three students voluntarily took part in the interview to confirm the results of the questionnaire. The results of this study showed that students faced difficulty in learning writing, especially in using the correct grammar and mastering English vocabulary. Consequently, they need and want the material or activity in the media that can train them to improve their understanding of grammar and vocabulary mastery. In addition, they also declared that they need to improve their HOTS, as they are still unable to use analyzing and creating skills. At the same time, the learning-need data indicated that students hoped that the developed media should provide opportunities for fellow students and teachers to mutually review writing and provide constructive comments. The material in the media is expected to provide warm-up activities in forms of videos, quizzes and problems to be discussed. All the topics provided must be relevant to their daily life
