Abstract

Eating and cooking quality of rice plays major role in consumer’s preference for any cultivar. In the present investigation 21 popular rice cultivars were analyzed for their cooking and eating quality traits. Moderate variations were observed for all the traits studied except solid in cooking water. Among the cultivars, cooking time ranged from 14.02 to 21.37 minutes, water uptake ratio from 2.24 to 3.324 %, solid in cooking water from 1.027 to 1.049 gm, volume expansion ratio from 2.8 to 4.28 %, % amylose content from 17.367 (low) to 27.387(intermediate), protein content from 6.28 to 8.96 (%), and most of the cultivars were found with intermediate gelatinization temperature. Solid in cooking water was found positively correlated with cooking time, but negatively with water uptake ratio. Considering the preferences for cooked rice, high amylose content and low to intermediate gelatinization temperature of BRRI rice29, BRRI rice49 and Binarice-11 justified their popularity among the farmers and consumers.

Abstract

Purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the combination of seed scarification treatment and ZPT immersion on the power of watermelon seed germination; to find out the effect of treatment of seed scarification on watermelon seed germination; to find out the effect of ZPT immersion treatment on the power of watermelon seed germination. This experiment was carried out in the laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture, Merdeka University, Surabaya. Place height of approximately 5 m above sea level. The experiment was arranged factorially in Randomized Block Design (RBD), consisting of two factors: Treatment of seed scarification with 2 levels of treatment and length of immersion of ZPT with 4 treatment levels. Each treatment combination was repeated three times and each combination treatment consisted of 50 seeds watermelon. Factor I is the treatment of seed scarification consisting of without stripping, and stripping Factor II which is the soaking time of ZPT which consists of without soaking; 10 minutes immersion; 20 minutes soaking and 30 minutes soaking. Observations were made every day until the germinated seeds did not germinate again (7 days after germination), observations made included: Germination rate, germination percentage, radicle length, plumula length. The results of statistical analysis showed that the overall combination of seed scarification and soaking of ZPT against watermelon seed germination had not yet given a real interaction effect. Separately the seed scarification treatment had a significant effect on root growth of watermelon sprouts, and did not affect the growth of plumula length, germination percentage and sprout speed, but ZPT immersion treatment significantly affected the percentage of germination, sprout speed, root length growth, and length of plumula growth. . The average percentage of germination, germination rate, length of the plumula and the length of the watermelon seed radicles were best obtained in ZPT immersion treatment with 30 minutes soaking time, which was then followed by other treatments.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of the dose and time of NPK fertilizer application on the growth and yield of tomato plants (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill). The study was conducted from April to July 2018 at the Experimental Garden of the Faculty of Agriculture, Merdeka University Surabaya, on Ketintang Madya VII-2 Street Surabaya, East Java with altitude of ± 5 m above sea level. The study used Factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD) consisting of two factors with three replications and two sample plants. The first factor was NPK fertilizer doses (N1 = NPK 2 gr / plant; N2 = NPK 4 gr / plant; N3 = NPK 6 gr / plant) and the second factor was the time of NPK application (W1 = day 0; W2 = day 0-14; W3 = day 0-14-28). The results shows that the combination treatment of dose and application time of NPK has a very significant effect on plant height, number of leaves, total fruit number and total fruit weight of tomato plants. The combination treatment of N3W3 (NPK 6 gr / plant and day 0-14-28) appears to produce the highest growth and yield of tomato plants though, statistically (BNT 5%), this was not significantly different from the combination treatment of N2W3 (NPK 4 gr / plants and 0-14-28 days).

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of biofungicide application with Trichoderma harzianum as its active ingredient in the form of soil treatment and additional treatment which includes seed treatment, canopy surface spraying, and combined seed treatment and canopy spraying with Trichoderma biofungicides and active chemical fungicides mancozeb and cymoxanil, against leaf blight disease index caused by Phytopthora infestans, stover dry weight, healthy potato tuber weight, rotten tuber weight, and relative quality index of potato plant bulbs. Experiments were carried out in the Split-plot Design using a completely randomized design (CRD). The main plot is soil tretament biofungicide Trichoderma, including without soil tretament and with soil treatment. As plot saplings is an additional treatement of Trichoderma biofungicide, consisting of: chemical fungicide, seed treatement, canopy spraying, and spraying of canopy and seed treament. Each treatment was repeated 4 times, to obtain 32 experimental units. The variables observed were leaf blight disease index at the end of the vegetative phase, stover dry weight, healthy tuber weight, rotten tuber weight, and relative index of tuber quality. The results showed that the interaction of soil treatment and additional treatment of Trichoderma biofungicide had a very significant effect on the disease index of potato leaf blight, rotten tuber weight per plant, and relative index of quality of potato tubers, but did not significantly affect the dry weight of stover and tubers of healthy potatoes per plant. The combination of soil treatment and additional treatment resulted in a decrease in the disease index of 45.37 to 53.96%, a decrease in rotten tubers from 42.39 to 91.50%, and an increase in the percentage of relative index of tuber quality from 7.8 to 65.5% compared to only using fungicides made from mancozeb and cymoxanil.
