Evaluation on Sustainability of Technological Dimension Biopore Absorption Hole Management for Soil Water Conservation in Semarang City
Biopore technology innovation is an easy and cheap technology that can be applied in any class of society. Biopore Absorption Hole (BAH) is a cylincric vertical hole with a relatively small diameter. Eventhough the diameter is not so big, it is still effective to absorb groundwater.The dimension of technology reflected how this BAH tecnology is applied to the Management of BAH within the society of Semarang City.In order to achieve maximum results, an evaluation toward the sustainability of the dimension of BAH Management technology in Semarang City needs to be performed.The objectives of this research are to:1) studying the status of technology dimension in maintaining BAH, 2) studying sensitive attributes having influence toward index value and the sustainability status of technology dimension in maintaining BAH, as well as 3) formulating the priorities for policies applicable to technology in maintaining BAH in Semarang.The research took place in three administrative villages (Srondol Wetan, Jatingaleh, and Bendan Ngisor) in the city of Semarang.Those three locations were chosen to represent upper, middle, and lower regions of Semarang as water absorption area.The analysis of status determining data and leveraging factor was conducted using RAP – biopore method, while the the making of policy priorities was performed by using Analitycal Hierarchy Process (AHP).Results suggest that the status of the sustainability of Semarang’s BAH Management technology dimension was on “less sustainable” status (25,01 – 50,00). The strategy of enhancing influential sensitive attributes to improve sustainability status was a great success in affecting the values and sustainability status.

Environmental Factors in the Growth of Jatropha at Potorono Village, Yogyakarta
Jatropha curcas is a perennial crop that has been known by Indonesian people for more than seven decades as a plant that produces renewable biofuel. In the present decade, plants producing biofuel are expected to be developed to overcome the lowering nonrenewable fuel reserves. There is a myth that jatropha can grow well on marginal lands and draught condition, perform well on non-fertile soils, no need for agronomic management and is resistant to plant pests and diseases. This study was conducted to identify the environmental factors that influenced the growth of jatropha on the marginal land at Potorono village, Yogyakarta Province, Indonesia. Jatropha has been planted by local people at the village road sides and on the marginal land field at the local governmental land in this village. They grew jatropha on these areas with the purpose of preventing competition of area utilization with food crops. The results showed that the growth of jatropha was restricted by low content of organic matter, plant nutrition and poor soil drainage. Applications of manure and macro nutrients (N, P and K) to this crop were able to increase crop performance. The number of shoots, flowers and fruit bunches increased by manure and nutrients treatments. Field observation showed that there were several plant pests, such as Aspidiotus sp., Paracoccus marginatus, Poliphagotarsonemus latus, Selenothrips rubrocinctus, Chrysochoris javanus, Valanga nigricornis, Chloracris prasina, and Helicoverpa armigera that attacked plant leaves and fruits. There were plant leaf necrotic symptoms that caused by plant pathogens were also observed. The diseases are bacterial leaf spot (Xanthomonas ricinicola), cercospora leaf spot (Cercospora ricinella) and rust (Phakopsora jatrophicola). Thus, jatropha is like any other plants that need a good agro-ecological condition to grow well and produce high yield

PERUBAHAN JERAPAN P PADA ULTISOL AKIBAT PEMBERIAN CAMPURAN ABU TERBANG BATUBARA-KOTORAN AYAM
TITLE : CHANGES OF P SORPTION ON ULTISOL DUE TO ADDITION OF COAL FLY ASH-CHICKEN MANURE MIXTURE. High soil P sorption which result in low P availability for plants is one of important constraints in Ultisols. The objective of current research was to study the effect of coal fly ash-chicken manure mixture (FA-CM) on the changes in P sorption and availability in Ultisols. Two treatments - FA-CM mixture (w/w of 1:1) at the rate of 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60 ton ha-1, and P fertilization at the rate of 0, 87, 174, 261 and 348 kg P2O5 ha-1 - were tested. These treatments were arranged according to Factorial Completely Random Design with three replicates. Results of current research showed that FA-CM and P rates and their interaction significantly affected the values of point of zero charge (PZC), pH and soil negative charges. FA-CM mixture as a soil ameliorant decreased P sorption but it increased available P in Ultisols by increasing both soil pH and negative charges. The application of FA-CM at 30 tons ha-1 and P at 174 kg P2O5 ha-1 resulted in better increases in soil charges than any other combinations. However, the lowest P sorption (127.07 mg kg-1) and the highest available P (102.21 mg kg-1) was resulted in by the applications of 42.64 tons of FA-CM ha-1 and 261 kg P2O5 ha-1.Ketersediaan P tanaman yang rendah akibat tingginya jerapan P merupakan kendala utama pada Ultisol. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari pengaruh pemberian campuran abu terbang batubara-kotoran ayam (ATB-KA) terhadap perubahan jerapan dan ketersediaan P pada Ultisol. Perlakuan yang diterapkan pada percobaan ini meliputi dosis ATB-KA dengan komposisi 1:1 (b/b), yaitu 0, 15, 30,45, dan 50 ton ha-1, dan dosis pupuk P yang terdiri dari 0, 87, 174, 261, dan 348 kg P2O5 ha-1. Percobaan dilakukan menurut Rancangan Acak Lengkap Faktorial dengan 3 ulangan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa dosis ATB-KA, pupuk P, dan interaksi keduanya berpengaruh sangat nyata terhadap nilai titik muatan nol (TMN), pH, dan muatan negatif tanah. Campuran ATB-KA dapat digunakan sebagai amelioran untuk meningkatkan pH tanah dan muatan negatif tanah. Pemberian campuran ATB-KA dosis 30 ton ha-1 dan pupuk P dosis 174 kg P2O5 ha-1 dapat meningkatkan muatan negatif tanah yang lebih baik dibanding kombinasi perlakuan yang lain. Jerapan P minimum (127,07 mg kg-1) dan P-tersedia maksimum (102,21 mg kg-1) diperoleh pada dosis ATB-KA sebesar 42,64 ton ha-1 dan pupuk P dosis 261 kg P2O5 ha-1
