Get PDFBacterial leaf blight disease caused by Pantoea ananatis has been reported affects some species of Allium spp. Here, we determined the species of Allium spp. that are not the hosts of the P.ananatis through a host range test. The study designed as a completely randomized design with five replications. Pathogenic bacteria of P. ananatis inoculated to shallot, onion, spring onion, garlic, chives, leek, and cung spring onion in the greenhouse of the Faculty of Agriculture Tadulako University.

FACTORS AFFECTING THE EXPORT OF CRUDE PALM OIL INDONESIA
Get PDFCrude palm oil (CPO) is one of the leading export commodity that has contributed greatly to the Indonesian economy. The majority of CPO production is exported to various destination countries such as India, China, Pakistan, the Netherlands, and Malaysia. The proportion of Indonesian CPO exports was 80-75%, and domestic consumption was only 20-15% of total production. Indonesian CPO exports still show an increasing trend. This study aims to identify the factors that affect Indonesian CPO exports using the data from 2002-2017. This research used the multiple linear regression method of Ordinary Least Square (OLS). The results showed that CPO production, CPO prices in the international market, CPO prices in the domestic market, crude oil prices in the international market, the exchange rate of rupiah, and export rates had a significant effect on Indonesia\u27s CPO export
EFFECT OF COMPOST DOSES ON SOIL RESILIENCE IN PALU VALLEY
Get PDFApplying organic matter to the soil surface is an effective effort to increase soil resilience in the Palu valley, which is classified as low. This study aimed to determine: 1) the effect of several doses of compost on the physico-chemical properties of the soil, 2) the correlation between the percentage of organic carbon and total nitrogen in the soil to several physico-chemical properties of the soil. The research was based on a randomized block design in a greenhouse of the Faculty of Agriculture, Tadulako University, Palu. Compost uses raw materials for plantain stems (Musa textilia) and leaves of Gamal (Gliricidia sepium). The compost doses used in the experiment consisted of 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5% of the weight of air-dry soil, respectively. The treatment was repeated three times. The results showed that compost application significantly affected soil content weight, total porosity, saturated hydraulic conductivity, field capacity moisture content, percentage of organic carbon, total nitrogen, and cation exchange capacity. The correlation test results showed a powerful relationship between the percentage of organic carbon or total soil nitrogen to other soil physico-chemical properties observed in the experiment
ANALYSIS OF ECONOMIC ASPECT WITH IN SUSTAINABILITY FARMING OF CHRYSANTHEMUM GEMAH RIPAH FARMER GROUP AT SEMARANG REGENCY, INDONESIA

The results showed the value of coefficient variation (CV) of price was 49.55%, and this value indicates the price of chrysanthemum was classified as unstable because the price was called stable if it has a coefficient of variation between 10-30%. The average income from chrysanthemum farming was Rp. 7,851,521.61 / month on a land area of 1,168.55 m2. Chrysanthemum farming income contributes 88% to total farmer household income, which means that income from chrysanthemum farming contributes very high. The coefficient variation of income was 39.43% indicates that income risk of chrysanthemum farmers was high because it has more than 30% of the coefficient variation
