Abstract

Even though these products have the same nutritional content, imperfect vegetable and fruit products are often ignored and discarded by consumers. This condition has resulted in an increasing problem of food loss and food waste, from the producer to the consumer level. This paper aimed to investigate consumer perceptions of imperfect vegetable products. The research design used two approaches, such as (1) hedonic test experiments and (2) group discussion forums (FGD). The participants were urban people who were living in Jakarta. Participants assessed the level of preference (hedonic) on color, aroma, texture, and taste. Potatoes used in this study were (Sample 1) potatoes grade A and (Sample 2) potatoes grade B. Potatoes sample 1 has a good shape, size, and only a minor blemish level. In contrast, potatoes sample 2 has a smaller size, not good condition, and blemish level. Investigation through the Mann-Whitney test showed that all parameters were not significantly different (p<0.05) for all variables. This indicated that consumers could accept imperfect produce. However, in terms of consumer behavior, cosmetics and appearance products are considered in choosing potatoes.

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has drastically changed the social and environmental conditions. People should stay at home for self-isolation and social distancing to avoid the spread of Covid-19. People tend to have more plants at home associated with psychological impact during self-isolation. This study aimed to describe having more plants during the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia. A nationwide cross-sectional survey involving an online survey was carried out of an Indonesian population-based sample of 412 respondents from 26 provinces, considered demographic, social, and behavioral variables. The variable affecting the having plants during the Covid-19 pandemic was analyzed using non-parametric analysis of the Kruskal Wallis test. The result showed that people preferred having more plants during the Covid-19 pandemic to reduce negative emotions and feelings. The majority of the respondents tend to have 1-10 plants and spend around <100 K (IDR) monthly to maintain and buy plants. They think that efforts to maintain were the most challenging in gardening activities. The majority of the respondents had potted plants at home to make their homes greener. The Kruskal Wallis test showed the p-value (>0.05) for all characteristic respondents. Thus, it can be concluded that there was no significant difference regarding the motivation to have planted during the Covid-19 pandemic from characteristic respondents.

Abstract

Ethnobotany of Indonesian communities utilizes plants as botanical pesticides. Recently, there has been no comprehensive data and information related to the ethnobotany of plants as potential botanical pesticides on a nationwide scale. This paper aimed to depict an overview of ethnobotany as botanical pesticides in Indonesia. The comprehensive literature was collected from the 29 published articles and theses (doctoral, master's, and bachelor's degrees) in English and Bahasa Indonesia. After the data was validated, only 27 papers were related to the study topic. Most literature data is from the western part of Indonesia (Oriental Realm): Java (n=10); followed by Kalimantan (n=7), and Sumatra (n=4). The results showed that 149 plant species were used as botanical pesticides. It consists of 130 species as an insecticide, 12 as a fungicide, 8 as a bactericide, 8 as a molluscicide, 3 as a rodenticide, and 2 as a nematicide. These species were dominated by the Compositae family (14 species) and plant parts used from leaf parts (38.9%). However, 11 species have two to four functions: Archidendron pauciflorum, Areca catechu, Artocarpus heterophyllus, Caryota mitis, Cerbera manghas, Jatropha curcas, Melia azedarach, Morinda citrifolia, Pangium edule, Piper betle, and Piper ningrum. The data of ethnobotany can be used as database information for further research regarding the bioprospecting, formulation, efficacy, and conservation for sustainable use. Furthermore, the development of botanical pesticides is also an alternative to reduce synthetic/chemical pesticides to provide sustainable agriculture.

Abstract

Up to these days, many people globally have not yet realized the wondrous benefits of the drumstick tree (Moringa oleifera), such as citizens living in Kediri, East Java, Indonesia. Each person of the communities in the region mostly has spacious enough yards that can be optimized for drumstick tree cultivation. This community service aimed to (a) enhance motivation in gardening activities of urban communities; b) improve knowledge and skills of urban communities in cultivating, harvesting, and processing drumstick tree; c) increase greenery areas in the house; and d) improve food security and family health during the Covid-19 pandemic. Activities in the present community development were distributing gardening and education packages to the target community of Kediri citizens through online media ranging from planting, maintaining, and processing drumstick trees as a home industry business in order to enhance their income. Participants of these activities were also given some materials regarding the topic in the form of booklets and online collective assistance.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted all countries around the world, including Indonesia. The COVID-19 pandemic affects all sectors, especially the agrocomplex. As a strategic step to minimize the impact on the agricultural sector, it is necessary to have a digital transformation to support production stability. Digital media in agriculture can be used as a medium for consulting farmers with agricultural experts so there is validation of information obtained by farmers regarding problems in the field. This empowerment activity was conducted to increase the literacy skills of farmers on cultivation topics as a supporting system for food security during the COVID-19 pandemic. Klinik tanipanen was created to provide a medium for farmers to consult directly with agricultural experts. The topic problems are about cultivation techniques (upstream and farming), agroindustry, and marketing. Based on the activities that have been carried out, the majority of farmers' questions are about pests and diseases encountered in the field. Through this program, it is expected that farmers will be able to improve their literacy skills, thereby increasing their productivity and income.
