Performance Test of Hybrid Corn Seed Sorting Machine Using Vibrating Mechanism
The corn seed sorting tool is a tool used to improve the quality of corn seeds used in the corn plant production process. The corn seed sorting process aims to separate corn seeds based on size and dirt. With the existence of this corn seed sorting tool, it can greatly assist corn farmers in producing high-quality seeds. This research aims to determine the performance of the seed sorting tool in sorting corn seeds using a vibration mechanism. In this research method, the variation of machine rotation speed is carried out at three levels, 1065 rpm, 1300 rpm, and 1400 rpm. Each speed level is tested with different inclination levels, 10°, 12.5°, and 15°. The results of this study indicate that the work capacity is directly proportional to the machine's rotational speed and the inclination angle of the sieve. The best performance in the sorting process is achieved at a machine rotational speed of 1400 rpm and an inclination angle of 15°, resulting in a sorting rate of 99%. Meanwhile, sorting effectiveness can be achieved at a machine rotational speed of 1300 rpm°
The Effect of Fermentation and Soaking Time on Water Content of Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.)
Post-harvest handling, particularly fermentation and soaking, significantly affects cocoa quality. This study investigates the effects of fermentation duration (3, 5, 7 days) and soaking time (1, 2, 3 hours) on the moisture content of MCC 02 cocoa beans. The fermented beans were sun-dried, and moisture content was analyzed using the wet/dry basis method. Results showed the lowest wet basis moisture content of 55.65% for beans fermented for 3 days and soaked for 1 hour, and the highest of 63.1% for beans fermented for 3 days and soaked for 2 hours. After drying, the control sample had a moisture content of 7.7% (63.5% before drying), while the lowest moisture content for beans fermented for 5 days with 1-hour soaking was 7.95%, and the highest was 10.65% for beans fermented for 3 days with 1-hour soaking, exceeding the SNI standard (6-7%). Temperature fluctuations (28 - 37°C) and weather-dependent drying prolonged the process, resulting in higher moisture content than the standard, indicating the need for controlled drying methods
Understanding spices and herbs as source food of potassium (macromineral): How does the cooking method influence it?
Population studies reported that most of the world's population consume an amount of potassium that falls below the recommended intake levels. The most prominent source of potassium are fruits, vegetables, and nuts. However, there is still limited study that shows spices and herbs (SH) contain high potassium. Potassium is a nutrient that is intimately linked to diet quality; however, the cooking process of SH frequently results in a reduction of its nutrient. This study is a literature review based on an electronic database concerning the nutritional content and the effect of cooking on the content of macromineral’s in SH. The data presented in this study were derived from Indonesian and United States food composition databases. The study found that SH mostly contains potassium in the category of medium to very high, as well as low sodium. The highest potassium content is found in turmeric, which is 2,080 mg/100 g. SH have long been used for culinary and medicinal purposes that require cooking methods, although the cooking process (dry heat cooking and moist heat cooking) affects the micromineral content in SH, especially moist heat cooking (steaming, blanching, and boiling), which significantly reduces potassium content. A comprehensive review of the extant literature in the field has confirmed that SH contains high potassium content and cooking process can decrease its potassium content. It is necessary to conduct further experimental research to prove potassium content of SH and the effect of other cooking processes on macromineral content in SH
OPTIMIZATION OF MUSTARD PLANT (Brassica juncea L.) GROWTH THROUGH THE APPLICATION OF VARIOUS CONCENTRATIONS OF COLCHICINE IN A HYDROPONIC SYSTEM
Mustard greens (Brassica juncea L.) are one of the vegetables widely consumed by the Indonesian population because they are low in calories but full of micronutrients such as vitamins A, C, and K, and essential minerals like calcium and manganese, making the demand for this plant very high. However, this substantial demand has not been matched by relatively low production by farmers. This is because mustard greens are generally grown naturally using small-scale land cultivation systems. As a result, efforts to increase plant production through Colchicine, which is used in polyploidy induction to produce plants with multiple chromosomes, have been applied. The large cell size resulting from polyploidy is expected to provide better growth and yield. The application of a hydroponic system in mustard green cultivation allows the plants to absorb nutrients and colchicine compounds optimally, making their utilization more effective and efficient in plant growth. This research aims to determine the appropriate colchicine concentration on the number of chromosomes, growth, and yield of mustard greens. The study was arranged in a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with colchicine concentration treatments consisting of six levels: 0% concentration as control, 1% colchicine, 2% colchicine, 3% colchicine, 4% colchicine, and 5% colchicine, each treatment repeated four times to obtain 24 observation units. The results showed that the application of colchicine at a 5% concentration had the best effect on growth and production, especially in parameters of plant height, number of leaves, and fresh weight.Mustard greens (Brassica juncea L.) are one of the vegetables widely consumed by the Indonesian population because they are low in calories but full of micronutrients such as vitamins A, C, and K, and essential minerals like calcium and manganese, making the demand for this plant very high.

Effectiveness of the Application of Drip Irrigation In Some Planting Media for Caisim (Barassica juncea L).
Caisim plants are cultivated in highland areas. One of the methods to increase the productivity of caisim is by balancing the amount of water supplied and water needs of the plants. This can be done by applying drip irrigation where water was applied to the plants according to their needs. In addition, setting the appropriare composition of planting medium also needs to be done in increasing the productivity of caisim. This study aims to determine the effect of water application and the composition of several planting media in increasing the growth of caisim using drip irrigation. This research used a completely Randomized Disign (CRD) which consisted of two treatment factos, namely provision of water (A) and planting medium (B). The water supply factor consisted of three treatments, i.e AI (2.49 l/day), A2 (2.69 l/day) and A3 (2.89 l/day). The planting media factors consisted of 3 treatments, i.e B1 (soil + cocopeat 2:1), B2 (soil + husk charcoal 2:1) and B3 (soil + manure 2:1). Research data were analyzed using analysis of variance. In case the analyses results in a significant effect, Duncan's New Multiple Range Test (DNMRT) will be performed. The results of the study showed that the application of water at 2.69 l/day and the use of planting media (soil + cow dung manure 2:1) resulted in the best growth and yield of caisim

Boba, or bubble tea pearls, is a popular food with a chewy texture produced from a mixture of starch and binders. This study aims to develop boba by utilizing red okra and green okra as additional ingredients, and explore the effect of adding sago starch and cornstarch in different proportions on the texture characteristics of the boba produced. This study used two types of okra, namely red okra and green okra, in the formulation of boba dough combined with sago flour and cornstarch with varying ratios: 80% sago flour and 20% cornstarch, and 90% sago flour and 10% cornstarch. Red okra produced boba with a distinctive reddish color, while green okra gave a brighter green color. Boba using 80% sago starch and 20% cornstarch showed a softer and chewier texture compared to boba using 90% sago starch and 10% cornstarch, which tended to be hard and stiffer. Mucilage from okra contributed to the increased chewiness, while the different proportions of sago starch and cornstarch affected the stiffness level of the boba.Boba, atau bubble tea pearls, adalah makanan yang populer dengan tekstur kenyal yang dihasilkan dari campuran pati dan bahan pengikat.
