Physiological Quality Testing of Local Chili Seeds of Capsicum frutescens Species
Full text linkThe high viability of cayenne pepper seeds is a critical factor influencing plant production levels. Research on the quality of chili seeds is essential to determine the physiological characteristics of seeds across various chili varieties. This study aims to provide information regarding the viability and vigor of C. frutescens chili seeds. The research was conducted from February to April 2024 at the Seed Science and Technology Laboratory, Department of Agronomy and Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Bogor Agricultural University. A Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) was employed, focusing on cayenne pepper varieties with four replications. The results of the observations indicated that the highest 1000-seed weight was recorded for the C. frutescens Feira variety (5.33 g). In comparison, the lowest weight was observed in the Cakra Putih variety (4.08 g). The DHL test results indicated that the Harita variety exhibited the lowest potential for leakage, measuring at 173.80. Additionally, the Harita variety demonstrated the highest vigor values in the Vigor Index, Growth Rate, Growth Simultaneity, and Sprout Growth Rate. The results of the Pearson Correlation Analysis revealed a significant positive relationship between Radicle Emergence (RE) and Dry Biomass (DB), with a correlation coefficient of 0.85. Estimating seed vigor can be effectively accomplished through the Radicle Emergence (RE) test, which is easier and faster
Study of Atonic Concentration and Types of Biostimulants Applications on Chili Pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.) Production
No full textThe study aims to determine the level of atonic concentration and the type of biostimulant that can increase the yield of small chili peppers in the lowlands. The design used was a factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD) consisting of two factors. The first factor is the concentration of atonic (A), namely: A0 = 0.0 ml / l; A1 = 1.5 ml / l, A2 = 2 ml / l; and A3 = 2.5 ml / l. The second factor is the provision of several types of biostimulants (B), namely: B0 = without biostimulant; B1 = Plant Growth Stimulator; B2 = EM4; B3 = Superbionic Fertilizer. Data analysis used analysis of variance and if there was significance, further testing was carried out with the Duncan Multiple Range Test. The results showed that the urea fertilizer package with a dose of 200 kg / ha, SP-36 50 kg / ha, and KCl 50 kg / ha gave better seed yields than the control but was not significantly different from higher doses of N, P, K fertilizers
Agronomic Response of Various Rice Varieties Using Nano Priming ZnO Treatment on Seeds to Drought Stress
Full text linkRice (Oryza sativa L.) is a staple food crop that is being promoted as part of efforts to enhance national food security. The utilization of dry land in Indonesia is one mechanism that supports this food security initiative. Seed priming treatments have been shown to improve plant tolerance to drought stress conditions. This adaptation study aims to investigate the differences in seed viability among several rice varieties subjected to different concentrations of ZnO nanopriming, as well as the performance of selected seeds grown under drought stress conditions during the vegetative phase of the plants. The first phase of the research involved seed screening and variety selection, accompanied by seed priming treatments. The experimental design employed was a Factorial Randomized Block Design, with the first factor being ZnO concentrations of 0 ppm, 10 ppm, 15 ppm, and 20 ppm. The second factor involved the selection of four rice varieties: Ciherang, Inpari 32 HDB, Mekongga, and the expired Ciherang. The second phase of the research built upon the first phase, utilizing the best rice seeds identified from the screening results along with the most effective priming treatment. These seeds were subjected to drought stress treatments (without watering), which included 0 HTS, 5 HTS, 7 HTS, and 14 HTS. The results indicated that the seed priming treatment with ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) significantly increased the germination percentage of rice seeds across all varieties, with the optimal treatment combinations being 30 ppm for the Ciherang variety and 100 ppm for the Mekongga variety. Under drought stress conditions, the Ciherang variety at 30 ppm exhibited the best adaptation up to 14 HTS. Overall, the application of nano-priming with ZnO NPs enhanced seed germination and promoted plant growth

Full text linkOil palm plantations in Riau Province were commonly found on suboptimal lands, such as Inceptisol soils, which exhibited inherently poor soil chemical fertility. This research aimed to determine the chemical properties of Inceptisol soil in 6- and 8-year-old oil palm plantations. This research was conducted from July to December 2024 at the Oil Palm Plantation, Sub-District Perhentian Raja, Kampar District, Riau. The analysis of soil chemical properties was carried out at the Instrumental Chemistry Laboratory, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Padang State University. This research employed a quantitative descriptive method, where data collection was conducted through direct observation and subsequently analyzed in the laboratory. A purposive sampling technique was employed to collect soil samples, where each block was divided into four sampling plots. Within each plot, soil samples were collected and composited from five sub-samples, yielding a total of eight Inceptisol soil samples for subsequent analysis. The following soil parameters were analyzed: pH (H2O), OC, total N, P, K, Ca, Mg, SO4, and CEC. The chemical properties of the Inceptisol at the research sites were characterized by: a pH range of very acidic to acidic, sufficient levels of OC, and total-N, very low levels of total (P and K), excessive of total-Ca, deficient of total-Mg, very low levels of SO4, and moderate to high levels of CEC; there were significant mean differences in soil N, SO4, and CEC, whereas soil pH, OC, P, K, Ca, and Mg levels were not influenced by oil palm age
Improving the Quality and Content of Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) by Adding Chlorine
Full text linkSweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is a food commodity with significant potential as an alternative source of carbohydrates. However, damage caused by microbial contamination and quality degradation during storage remains a significant challenge. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of chlorine treatment on sweet potato quality. Chlorine treatment was performed by soaking sweet potatoes in a sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) solution at a specified concentration for a set duration. Parameters assessed included microbial contamination levels, changes in skin and flesh color, water content, and shelf life. The results demonstrated that chlorine treatment significantly reduced surface microbial populations and slowed the rate of physiological deterioration during storage. Furthermore, chlorination did not adversely affect the physical appearance or organoleptic qualities of the sweet potatoes. Therefore, chlorine treatment can be an effective method for handling sweet potatoes, extending their shelf life and maintaining product quality
