Nielsen) (Effect of Bio-Fertilizer, Endomicorrhiza, Trichoderma spp., and Compost Combination on the Growth of Sengon Seedlings (Paraserianthes falcataria (L.) Nielsen))
Sengon (Paraserianthes falcataria (L.) Nielsen) is a tree species commonly planted in community forests and managed using an agroforestry system. In order to grow a high-quality sengon tree, high-quality seeds are essentials. In addition, providing biofertilizers and organic fertilizers during the nursery phase is necessary. This study aimed to determine the effect of Trichoderma spp., endomycorrhizae, and compost fertilizer combination on the growth of sengon (Paraserianthes falcataria (L.) Nielsen) seeds and to determine the optimum ratio to increase the growth of sengon seeds. The research was performed in the Plant Taxonomy Laboratory (Mycology) and Unda Anyar Watershed and Protected Forest Management Office in Bali. The research was performed with six treatments, namely: A (sterile or untreated soil), B (sterile soil and 10 g of compost), C (10 ml Trichoderma spp.), D (10 ml Trichoderma spp., 100 endomycorrhizal spores, and 10 g compost), E (10 ml Trichoderma spp., 150 endomycorrhizal spores, and 10 g compost), and F (10 ml Trichoderma spp., 200 endomycorrhizal spores, and 10 g compost). This study consisted of five groups with three sub-unit plants. The results showed that the combination of Trichoderma spp., endomycorrhizae, and compost fertilizer significantly increased plant height, amount of stem branches, fresh weight and dry weight of plant, and dry weight of root compared to control. However, the effect on the root fresh weight was not significant. A combination of 10 ml Trichoderma spp., 150 endomycorrhizal spores, and 10 g of compost fertilizer was the most optimal and effective in increasing the growth of sengon seeds.

Dampak Penyaradan Kayu dengan Traktor terhadap Keanekaragaman Semut (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) di Hutan Produksi Alam, Kalimantan Tengah (Impacts of Tractor Logging on the Diversity of Ground Ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in Natural Production Forest)
Tractor logging in tropical forest concession disturbs the life of soil surface organisms, including ground ant. Ground ant has an important role in determining soil fertility. The study aimed to analyze the impact of tractor logging on the diversity of ground ant (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) in the natural production forest. Two transect lines of 100 m length and 200 m distance between lines were placed in four different cutting compartments, i.e., currently logged, one month after logging, two months after logging, and unlogged. Ground ant was collected using a pitfall trap. The environmental factors (density of understorey plants, canopy cover, soil compaction, litter thickness, temperature, and humidity) were measured at the setting location of pitfall trap. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to determine the mean difference between treatments. Pearson correlation test was used to determine the correlation between insect abundance and environmental factors. The results of the study indicated that there was a significant difference in the abundance of the ground ant after logging and before logging. The abundance of ground ants after logging was lower than before logging. The abundance of ground ants among skidded plots was not significantly different. Soil compaction due to tractor logging, litter thickness, and temperature did not significantly affect the abundance of ground ants. The ground ant composition did not change due to tractor logging.Keywords: environment impact, forest conservation, forest disturbance, forest ecosyste
Aplikasi Ektomikoriza (Scleroderma sp.) pada Semai Mangium (Acacia mangium Willd.) Menggunakan Media Tailing Pertambangan Emas Skala Kecil (Application of Ectomycorrhiza (Scleroderma sp.) in Mangium (Acacia Mangium Willd.) using Artisanal Small-scale Gold Mining(ASGM) Tailings)
Artisanal small-scale gold mining tailings frequently used hazardous toxic materials that could contaminate land, rivers, and lakes which harmful to the environment and health. Phytoremediation is one way to overcome the mining waste. Mangium (Acacia mangium Willd.) is one of plant that often used for mining land phytoremediation. However, it was difficult for mangium to be able to survive on land with such extreme conditions, therefore additional input is needed. Using ectomycorrhiza fungi could be an alternative. This study aimed to measure the adaptation of mangium in gold mining tailings and analyze the function of ectomycorrhiza (Scleroderma sp.) in the growth of mangium. The experimental design used a completely randomized design with six growth media as treatments with five replications. The growth media used were: (1) topsoil with mycorrhiza, (2) topsoil without mycorrhiza, (3) topsoil + tailings with mycorrhiza, (4) soil + tailings without mycorrhiza,(5) tailings with mycorrhiza, and (6) tailings without mycorrhiza. Data were analyzed statistically using analysis of variance followed with a Least Significant Difference test. The results showed that the survival rate of mangium life in tailing media with mycorrhizae was fairly high with a percentage of life reaching 60% even though the growth was less when compared to topsoil media with mycorrhiza that reached 100%. The highest growth rate was achieved by mangium in topsoil media without tailings and mycorrhiza (control). This research showed that ectomycorrhiza did not have any significant effects on mangium growth in gold tailing.Keywords: Acacia mangium, ectomycoriza, gold tailings, phytoremediation, Scleroderma sp.
Demand Analysis of Termite Control Service in Jakarta
Termite is an economically important pest species in the pest control industry and considered as one of the urban pests. Although it had caused a great loss, only a few studies on termite control demand were found. This study attempted to identify determinants and build the econometric model of termite control demand in Jakarta. The findings are expected to give the pest control industry a better understanding of the pest control market. Two ad-hoc models, linear and double log models, were investigated using the Least Square Dummy Variable (LSDV) technique. The results showed that the double log model was found better than the linear model based on sign expectation and significance. The price of termite control service, building permits, price of structural metals and dummy variables for the large company were statistically significant determinants, whereas dummy variables for risk class were not. Termite control demand for medium and small companies was not significantly different, but both of them were significantly lower than demand for the large company. This study also found that the demand for termite control was elastic.Keywords: demand analysis, econometric modeling, pest control, termite control, urban pes
Daya Dukung Bioekologi Hutan dan Lahan di Kabupaten Manokwari, Provinsi Papua Barat (Biecological Carrying Capacity of Forest and Land in Manokwari Regency, West Papua Province)
Manokwari Regency has high environmental risks due to the high rate of population growth and increased migration. This condition could affect the biocapacity of forest and land resources as well as the ecological footprint that could fulfill the needs of the community in the Manokwari Regency. This study aimed to assess the bioecological carrying capacity of forest and land, changes in forest cover, and projecting the bioecological carrying capacity for the next 50 years in the Manokwari Regency. A quantitative descriptive approach based on secondary time series data analysis and land cover dynamics analysis was used. The ecological footprint approach was carried out by calculating the ecological footprint, biocapacity, and bioecological carrying capacity. The results showed that the bioecological carrying capacity in 2017 in Manokwari District decreased compared to 2012. Forest degradation tended to decrease at a rate of 372 ha/year. However, deforestation increased at a rate of 1,298 ha/year. The results indicated that the policy of converting forests to permanent non-forest lands in the last five years was very massive. The projected bioecological carrying capacity in the next 50 years showed that forest and land in Manokwari District tend to be overshoot.Keywords: bioecological carrying capacity, change in land use, forests, land, Manokwar
