Pendugaan Erosi Tanah Di Kecamatan Raya Kabupaten Simalungun Berdasarkan Metode Usle

Raya is a part of the upstream Padang's watershed that plays an important role for the watershed ecosystem to determine of hydrological cycle. The decrease of vegetation because land use and slope ranging from ramps, steep to flet in this area, tringger soil erosion problems. To determine the level of soil erosion in Raya Sub Districts of Simalungun a research conducted in April-September 2012. The research was conducted using survey method and continued with soil erosion calculation by USLE (Universal Soil Loss Equation) method. The result shows the erosion level at 30% slope with orange and weeds vegetation at a heavy level of erosion hazard criteria. And at 15,4% slope with coffe without ground cover vegetation at moderate and low level of erosion hazard criteria

Pemberian Zeolit Dan Pupuk Kalium Untuk Meningkatkan Ketersediaan Hara K Dan Pertumbuhan Kedelai Di Entisol

The Application of Zeolite and Potassium Fertilizer to Increase The Avaibility of PotassiumNutrient and Soy Growth in Entisols. Suvervised by Hamidah Hanum and Gantar Sitanggang.Theobjective of this research were: 1) determined of zeolite dosage that improved the soil chemistryproperties, 2) determinated zeolite and potassium fertilizer dosage that effected the avaibility ofpotassium and the soy growth in Entisols. The research consisted of two experiment, the first onewas the experiment of zeolite incubation, and second one was the experiment of zeolit andpotasium fertilizer. The design experiment of the first research was completely randomized designand the second one was block randomized design- factorial. The result showed that in the firstexperiment, zeolite wich incubation until 7.5 ton/hectare incerease CEC significanly, but didn\u27teffect the soil pH and K-exchangable. Besed the second experiment, it was know that theinteraction effect of zeolit and potasium fertilizer aplication increased potassium nutrient the plant,which the best treatment was zeolite aplication 5 ton/ hectare and potasium fertilizer 150 kg/hectare

The soil analysis was conducted in Research and Technology Laboratory inAgricultural Faculty of North Sumatra University on July – November 2013. The researchconducted the survey grid method semi-detailed lavel with 1 sample each 250 meter observationdensity. For the nutrient the researcher used Khejdhal method for soil total nitrogen, Extraction HCl25% for soil Potential phosphate, extraction 1 N NH4OAc pH 7 for soil potassium exchange, forsoil pH the researcher used electrometric method, and the result will be interpreted on nutrientstatus map. The result showed that total nitrogen is classified into two status, low nitrogen (582,048Ha) and medium nitrogen (167,952 Ha). Potential phosphate is classified into very low status (750Ha). And potassium exchange is classified into three status, medium potassium (137,202 Ha), highpotassium (515,303 Ha) and very high potassium (97,495 Ha). Soil pH classified into aciditytendency

Evaluasi Kesesuaian Lahan Untuk Tanaman Kopi Arabika (Coffea Arabica L Var Kartika Ateng ) Di Kecamatan Muara Kabupaten Tapanuli Utara

This research aims to evaluate the land suitability of coffea (Coffea arabica L.) in Muara Subdistrict of North Tapanuli Utara. This research use survey method From the results of the overlay from the map of soil types, map of topography, and climate, retrieved 3 (three) units of land use map. SPL 1 has a land area of 796 hectares, SPL 2 has a land area of 243 hectares, and SPL 3 has a land area of 619 hectares.With the Matching method, then retrieved the land suitability class actual and potensial class for coffea (Coffea arabica L.) on each of the SPL. At SPL 1 and SPL 2 are actual land suitability class S3 (wa,nr) while the potential land suitability class is S3 (wa) and at SPL 3 is actual land suitability class S3 (wa,nr,eh) while the potential land suitability class is S3 (wa). Potention of land for Arabic coffea in Muara Subdistrict is 1658 Ha

Pengujian Media Tanam Kompos Dan Residu Sampah Rumah Tangga Terhadap Basa Tukar, Ktk, Kb Dan Produksi Tanaman Sawi (Brassica Juncea L. Czern) Di Lahan Pekarangan Kec. Sunggal

The Study to evaluate the effect compost of household waste as growing media and the residual ofhousehold waste pit on the availability of KTK, KB and the production of mustard (Brassica junceaL. Czern) corp in yard. This research was conducted in the compost yard in Desa Sei SemayangKecamatan Sunggal Kabupaten Deli Serdang and in the laboratory of Agricultural Faculty ofUniversity of North Sumatra. The design of this research were non-factorial random design which isconsisting of 9 treatments with 3 replications. The treatment are M1 (100% soil), M2 (75% soil +25% compost), M3 (50% soil + 50% compost), M4 (25% soil + 75% compost), M5 (75% soil +25% residues of the household waste pit), M6 (50% soil + 50% residues of the household wastepit), M7 (25% soil + 75% residues of the household waste pit), M8 (50% compost+ 50% residues ofthe household waste pit), M9 (100% residues of the household waste pit). The result is that researchas household waste compost and residues of the household waste pit and the combination of both,very significantly increased the K-dd, Base Saturation of the soil as well as the production of thewet weight mustard plant and not significant to Ca, Mg and Na contensts

Effects of Cyanobacterial Lipopolysaccharides from Microcystis on Glutathione-Based Detoxification Pathways in the Zebrafish (Danio rerio) Embryo

Cyanobacteria (“blue-green algae”) are recognized producers of a diverse array of toxic secondary metabolites. Of these, the lipopolysaccharides (LPS), produced by all cyanobacteria, remain to be well investigated. In the current study, we specifically employed the zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryo to investigate the effects of LPS from geographically diverse strains of the widespread cyanobacterial genus, Microcystis, on several detoxifying enzymes/pathways, including glutathione-S-transferase (GST), glutathione peroxidase (GPx)/glutathione reductase (GR), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase (CAT), and compared observed effects to those of heterotrophic bacterial (i.e., E. coli) LPS. In agreement with previous studies, cyanobacterial LPS significantly reduced GST in embryos exposed to LPS in all treatments. In contrast, GPx moderately increased in embryos exposed to LPS, with no effect on reciprocal GR activity. Interestingly, total glutathione levels were elevated in embryos exposed to Microcystis LPS, but the relative levels of reduced and oxidized glutathione (i.e., GSH/GSSG) were, likewise, elevated suggesting that oxidative stress is not involved in the observed effects as typical of heterotrophic bacterial LPS in mammalian systems. In further support of this, no effect was observed with respect to CAT or SOD activity. These findings demonstrate that Microcystis LPS affects glutathione-based detoxification pathways in the zebrafish embryo, and more generally, that this model is well suited for investigating the apparent toxicophore of cyanobacterial LPS, including possible differences in structure-activity relationships between heterotrophic and cyanobacterial LPS, and teleost fish versus mammalian systems

Evaluasi Sifat Kimia Tanah Inceptisol Pada Kebun Inti Tanaman Gambir (Uncaria Gambir Roxb.) Di Kecamatan Salak Kabupaten Pakpak Bharat

Evaluation of Inceptisol soil chemical in Gambir Core Garden in the Sub district of Salak Pakpak Bharat District has been conducted from March 2013 to June 2013. This study aimed to evaluate the soil chemical (pH, N, P, K, CEC, Organic Carbon, Exchangable Aluminuim) based on land position on the Gambir Core Garden of Pakpak Bharat District. The method used in this research is descriptive method by conducting surveys and soil sampling based land position on the top of the hill, hillside and part of the valley. The results show the value of N and Organic Carbon are tends to rise in the valley compared to the top of the hill and the hillside. As for the value of CEC and Exchangable Aluminium are tend to rise on the hillside compared to to the top of the hill and the valley, while the value of pH, P and K are relatively same
