Abstract

Sago (Metroxylon spp.) is one source of traditional foods potentially to be developed to support local and national food security. Nutritional value of sago is almost equal to other food sources, such as rice, maize, cassava, and potato. The potential area of sago in Moluccas is large enough. In addition, its production potential in the region is high enough (30 t/ha/yr), far exceeding other sources of food (rice, corn, and potato). Sago flour and its processed products can be classified as functional foods because it has high carbohydrate content (84.7%) and dietary fibre (3.69 to 5.96%), low glycemic index (28), resistant starch, non-starch polysaccharide, and short chain carbohydrates that are very useful for health. In the sago farming, from the sago cultivation (pre-harvest) until the wet sago flour processing (post-harvest) is done naturally, hence, the sago starch can be categorized as 100% organic food. Wet sago starch can be dried to increase the storage durability and the packaging attractiveness. Moreover, the flour can be processed into a variety of cakes and pastries. The strategy taken in the development efforts of sago as a component of local and national food security needs to be done starting from up-stream to down-stream, including technical and management aspects by developing a competitive, pro-poor, sustainable, and decentralized sago agribusiness. In order to strengthen the food security, utilization of the sago as a component of food security should consider the following matters: (1) diversification of sago processed products should be diverse, nutritious, and balanced, (2) maintain and improve consumption  patterns of the sago-based foods, (3 ) quality and food safety to be guaranteed, (4) use of appropriate technology, and (5) efforts increase added value through improving and increasing highly competitive sago-based products.   Key words: Sago, traditional food, functional food, organic food, food security.

Abstract

Several types of plants producing natural fiber, such as fruit fiber (cotton), stems (kenaf, roselle, yute, flax, linum), and leaf (abaca, agave) have long been cultivated in Indonesia. They have even a solid status as raw material for industry nationally and internationally, such as cotton, kenaf, abaca, and flax. Plants of these natural fibers are potential for use as raw material for pulp and paper, and other industrial raw materials. Each year, Indonesia imports about 1.7 reem of currency paper worth of ± US$ 50 million or equivalent to ± Rp475 billion. High quality raw materials for currency paper are from cotton fibers (linters) mixed with other natural fibers, such as abaca, ramie, kenaf, and linum in a particular composition. Local natural fibers have great potential to be utilized as an alternative to meeting the needs of the domestic currency paper material. Balai Besar Pulp dan Kertas has carried out many research on the currency paper materials. Bank of Indonesia in collaboration with LIPI, Balittas, ITS, and the Ministry of Industry and Trade (Kemperindag) has considered that the genetic material of plants, land and human resources are already highly supportive to conduct the business of natural fibers plantation. If the business can maximally be empowered domestic sources, it may be able to improve farmers’ welfare through agribusiness of natural fiber commodities. This business in turn may reduce the imports of currency paper and save foreign exchange, as well. Empowerment of flooded and acidic lands outside Java, by planting high yielding varieties, is a positive effort to improve farmers’ welfare on these marginal lands.Keywords : Raw material, currency paper, natural fibers, pulp and paper, farmers’ prosperity.

Abstract

Most of Indonesian agricultural land has very low (less than 1% C) soil organic matter content which is unsuitable to support sustainability agricultural system.  As a fiber crop, Crotalaria juncea (sun hemp) possesses many characteristics of a green manure, growing vigorously to provide good ground coverage, performing symbiosis with rhizobium to fix nitrogen, and being a source of organic matter.  Incorporation green biomass of sun hemp with soil in soil tillage, contributed to soil N content of 52.7 kg N/ha and increased cane yield of 61 tones/ha at one year planting time.  In agricultural soil dominated by sand particle (86% sand content), addition of 1.6% C juncea mixed with 10% clay soil, has improved soil physical characteristic (increasing of aggregate stability, declining bulk density, and increasing soil water content), soil chemical characteristics (increasing soil N, P and C organic), and soil biological characteristics (increasing population of bacteria and fungi).  Furthermore, sun hemp can suppress population of parasitic soil nematode. The using of sun hemp as a green manure might be an essential component of sustainability agriculture system.Key words: C juncea, green manure, nematode, soil fertility, sustainability agriculture.

Abstract

Global climate change has been a serious challenge to agriculture in future due to its influence on natural genetic diversity and ecosystem.  The phenomenon of global climate change has to be faced by the world, and therefore organized preparation of adaptation, anticipation, and mitigation scenarios has to be set up.  Cotton is very susceptible to climate change, because climatic factors affect cotton growth and yield.  Adaptation to drought can be approached by selecting early maturing cotton varieties.   Anticipation scenario for facing the effect of global climate change is done by developing new cotton varieties tolerant to drought,  excessive rain, and CO2 concentration in the air.  Two high yielding varieties, Kanesia 14 and Kanesia 15, have been released to anticipate the drought stress.  To anticipate lengthy rainy season, the cotton breeding has obtained promising okra-leave cotton lines.   Moreover, anticipation of excessive CO2 concentration in the air will be approached by engineering transgenic cotton varieties expressing efficient photosynthetic genes of C3 plants. Mitigation of climate change will be met by developing new cotton varieties tolerant to salinity, because global climate change will increase saline areas.   Keywords : Climate change, varieties development, adaptation, anticipation, mitigation
Prospect of Genetics Improvement of Physic Nut (Jatropha curcas L.) . HASNAM

Abstract

The development of physic nut in Indonesia is hampered by technological obstacles, limited infrastructure, and institutional constraints. Limited radiation, due to shading, exeside or lock of rainfall, nutrient deficiencies, and various changes in environmental condition results in variation in male to female flower ratio and alteration of reproductive system that lowers plant productivity. The crop productivity is too low and costly to manage physic nut plantation commercially. The potential of Jatropha curcas L. has not yet been realized. One of the reasons is the lack of high yielding varieties with high oil content. As an often cross pollinated crop, the following methods can be employed to exploit its genetic variation such as : (a) mass selection, (b) utilization of hybrid and  inter-specific hybridization, (c) recurrent selection, and (d) molecular breeding. Assessment of superior genotypes, exploitation of heterosis effect, utilization of inter-specific hybridization, and application of genetic transformation through agro-bacterium vector mediated or particle shooting will bring in the increase in yield and oil traits.Keywords: Jatropha curcas L., environment, selection, yield, plus tree, molecular, genetic transformation, agro-bacterium vector, particle shooting.
