Abstract

Red spinach is widely cultivated and consumed by the public because it has high antioxidants, vitamins (A, C, E), protein, carbohydrates, fats, minerals, iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium and calcium. P giving POC can increasered spinach biomass. Nutrients in POC have been decomposed so that they are easily absorbed by plants. This study aims to analyze the giving of POC Lemna sp. on growth and biochemical content of red spinach and determine the concentration of POC Lemna sp. effective for red spinach (Amaranthus tricolor L.). The study used a completely randomized design with 3 replications and 3 treatments. The independent variable in this study was the concentration of liquid organic fertilizer Lemna sp. (A=0%, B=5%, and C=10%). Data were analyzed by ANOVA test and DMRT test at 5% level. The results showed that the administration of POC Lemna sp. gave significantly different results on the A (0%) treatment of plant height, stem diameter, and flavonoid parameters. Giving POC Lemna sp. can increase the growth and flavonoid content of red spinach. The concentration of liquid organic fertilizer Lemna sp. 5% effective for the growth of red spinach (Amaranthus tricolor L.).

Abstract

Lemea, a traditional fermented food of the Rejang people in Bengkulu, is made from young bamboo and fish. The fish commonly used in the making Lemea is Mozambique tilapia or Mujair (Oreochromis mossambicus). The fermentation process typically lasts between 3 to 7 days. This study aimed to assess the sensory characteristics, including taste, color, texture, and aroma, of Lemea, based on the preferences of panelists. The variations examined were fermentation duration, and the amount of Mujair fish added. The research followed a completely randomized design, incorporating three fermentation durations (24, 96, and 144 hours) and three fish quantities (250 grams, 500 grams, and 750 grams). Sensory evaluations were conducted on the fermented samples, encompassing taste, aroma, texture, and color. The data revealed that the most favored taste and texture of Lemea were achieved with 500 grams of fish and a fermentation duration of 144 hours (J2W3). Likewise, the preferred aroma and color were observed in the sample with 750 grams of fish and 24 hours of fermentation (J3W1). The data analysis indicated that the sample with 500 grams of fish and a fermentation duration of 144 hours (J2W3) exhibited the most favorable sensory characteristics (taste, aroma, texture, and color). Thus, the quantity of fish added and the duration of fermentation influenced the sensory attributes of Lemea.
