Inventory Control Of Fertilizers For Cost Efficiency At Cv Jago Subur

Siti Kalista — 2024-12-31

This research is motivated by excess inventory leading to increased storage costs. The larger the accumulated inventory, the higher the cost per unit incurred. This study aims to identify inventory control, analyze storage capacity and inventory costs, develop more efficient inventory control strategies, and analyze inventory control cost efficiency. The methods used are Lagrange Multiplier and Min-Max. The results of the study indicate that the Min-Max method tends to maintain higher stock levels to anticipate demand fluctuations and procurement time uncertainties, even though fertilizer prices remain stable as determined by the producer's policy. Conversely, the Lagrange Multiplier method can optimize the quantity and frequency of orders based on warehouse capacity constraints, reducing total inventory costs by 19.35% compared to the previous method. This study demonstrates that the Lagrange Multiplier method is more effective in managing fertilizer inventory at CV Jago Subur compared to the Min-Max method. The advantage of this research lies in the discussion of inventory cost efficiency through a detailed comparative analysis between two different methods. This research makes a significant contribution to fertilizer inventory management by improving distribution efficiency, reducing inventory costs, and increasing company profits.

Rifdah Ardelia Sanusi — 2024-12-31

The development of agricultural technology is oriented towards increasing production, productivity, and farming efficiency. One of the technologies that has developed and attracted attention in recent years is the use of drone sprayers for fertilization and pest control applications. This study aims to test the effectiveness of drone sprayers at two different spray volumes in controlling pests. The research was conducted from May to June in Babat Subdistrict, Lamongan Regency, East Java, using direct observation methods to observe white rice stem borer attacks on rice plants. The two spray volumes tested were 40 l/ha and 60 l/ha with drone flying speeds of 5.1 m/s and 4.5 m/s, respectively. The parameters observed included flying speed, spray volume, solution concentration, and the level of white rice stem borer attacks. The research results showed that the drone sprayer using a flying speed of 4.5 m/s and a spray volume of 60 l/ha provided better effectiveness compared to a flying speed of 5.1 m/s with a spray volume of 45 l/ha. This better result is suspected to be due to more even spraying at a slower speed compared to a higher speed. The spray results of both spray volumes provided better outcomes than the control field, which tended to increase the number of affected tillers and decrease the number of unaffected tillers.

Therefore application and planting of spinach is necessary to induce the formation of potato tubers.  Apart from that, further research needs to be carried out to test the effect of spinach planting time on reducing soil temperature and the formation of potato tubers

Differences in Pakcoy Cultivation Media in The Aquaponic Systems With Tilapia Fish

Abdurahim — 2024-09-30

Urban Agriculture with an aquaponic system can be land intensification, in order to meet the needs of fresh vegetables and fruits for urban communities. Aquaponics is a cultivation technique that combines two organisms, namely fish and plants. Fish waste and leftover feed containing organic matter in the water can be utilized by plants for their growth. Pakcoy (Brassica rapa L.) is a vegetable from the Brassicaceae family whose leaves are used as food in the form of vegetables. This study aims to determine the appropriate planting media for use in an aquaponic system with Tilapia and Pakcoy plants. The study was conducted at the Ciganjur Fish Seed Center, Center for Production, Inspection and Certification of Fishery Products, South Jakarta. The research design used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 5 treatments, namely, P0 = Split stone with coconut shell charcoal (Control), P1 = Split stone with Malang sand, P2 = Split stone, P3 = Split stone with fern roots, P4 = Split stone with palm fiber. Based on the research results, it was concluded that the most suitable media for growing Pakcoy plants with tilapia fish in the aquaponic system is a mixture of split stone and Malang sand because it can have a very real effect on the wet weight and consumption weight of Pakcoy

Effect of Pineapple Peel Liquid Organic Fertilizer (LOF) Application on the Growth and Yield of Green Lettuce Plants (Lactuca sativa L.)

Eka Amalia Putri — 2024-09-27

the increases of population and public awareness of health, increasing lettuce production needs to be supported by organic cultivation technology, including the use of organic fertilizer. Pineapple peel that can no longer be consumed can be used to make liquid organic fertilizer (LOF). This research aimed to study the effect of concentrations of pineapple peel LOF on the growth and production of green lettuce. This research was conducted from January to March 2023 at the Experimental Garden of the Faculty of Agriculture, UniversitasMuhammadiyah Jakarta. The research design used was a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with six treatment levels, namely: 1.125 g NPK/polybag (control), 2.5% concentration of pineapple peel LOF, 5% concentration of pineapple peel LOF, 7.5% concentration of pineapple peel LOF, 10% concentration of pineapple peel LOF, and 12.5% concentration of pineapple peel LOF. The results showed that the treatment of pineapple peel LOF with concentrations of 2.5-12.5% and with a dose of 100 mL/plant was not able to meet the nutrient needs to support the growth and production of green lettuce, and have not been able to compete with the effect of NPK 16:16:16 with a dose of 1.125 g/polybag as a control.

Combination of 2,4-Dichlorophenoxy Acetic Acid and Benzyl Adenine Concentration on The Growth of Aglaonema sp. with Tissue Culture Technique

Ifan Nur Alim — 2024-09-28

Plant seeds can be produced in large quantities quickly, with quality, uniform seed size, and free from disease, one of which is by tissue culture. The composition of the media determines the success of tissue culture, including the concentration of plant growth regulators. Exogenous plant growth regulators of the auxin and cytokinine groups that are widely used in tissue culture media are 2,4-Dichlorophenoxy Acetic Acid (2,4-D) and Benzyl Adenine (BA). This study aims to determine the effect of giving a combination of 2,4-D and BA concentrations on the growth of Aglaonema sp. with tissue culture. The study was conducted at the Biotechnology and Tissue Culture Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Muhammadiyah Jakarta. The study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) Factorial, with 2 factors, namely, factor 1: 0.1 mg/l 2,4-D, 0.3 mg/l 2,4-D, and 0.5 mg/l 2,4-D; factor 2: 8 BA, 9 mg/l BA, and 10 mg/l BA. The results showed that the administration of a combination of 2,4-D and BA concentrations had no effect on the growth of Aglaonema sp., but the administration of a single concentration of BA had an effect on the percentage of living explants. The administration of a single dose of 8 mg/l BA had a very significant effect on the percentage of living explants, while the administration of a combination of 0.1 mg/l 2,4-D + 8 mg/l BA concentrations gave the best results and was significantly different from the percentage of living explants.

The Study of Quality Characteristics of Goat Milk Powder’s Process

Miskiyah — 2024-01-24

Goat's milk has several advantages compared to cow's milk. Distribution and marketing of goat's milk is easier in powder form. The manufacture of powdered goat's milk requires encapsulant materials which are thought
to affect the quality characteristics of the resulting powdered milk. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of encapsulant ingredients on the quality characteristics of powdered goat's milk. The production process
of powdered goat's milk is carried out using a spray drier with a capacity of 5 liters per process with an inlet temperature of 1400C and an outlet temperature of 60-700C. The study used a Completely Randomized Design
with treatment of encapsulant ingredients (A1 = maltodextrin, A2 = skim milk) with encapsulant ingredient concentrations (20%, 30% and 40%). The analysis parameters carried out include moisture content, ash
content, protein content, fat content, metal content, total plate count and Salmonella. The study results showed that the best encapsulant material was skim milk with a concentration of 40%. Powdered milk produced by this treatment has a moisture content of 3.63 ± 0.01%, ash content of 4.63 ± 0.06%, fat content of 2.28 ± 0.04%, protein content of 14.66 ± 0.01%, Cu 8.00 ± 1.78 ppm, Sn 28.63 ± 3.21 ppm, Total bacteria 8.3x104 CFU/g,
and Salmonella sp. negative. It is hoped that the results of the study will be useful to be applied to the SME scale milk powder manufacturing process while still paying attention to aspects of raw material quality and
sanitation hygiene during the manufacturing process..

Utilisation of Kersen (Muntingia Calabura L.) Leaf Decoction as Teat Dipping in Dairy Cattle in Cijeruk Sub-District, Bogor District

Diah Ajeng Ambarwati Syam — 2024-01-24

Subclinical mastitis often occurs in dairy cattle with a prevalence of up to 80%, due to lack of awareness of the importance of teat dipping in the implementation of milking. The study was conducted to determine the effect of kersen leaf decoction as a natural teat dipping on subclinical mastitis in dairy cattle. The study was conducted from April to June 2023 on 15 dairy cows given 3 treatments with 5 adventures, namely P0 (control/no teat dipping), P1 (teat dipping with Iodine) and P2 (teat dipping with kersen leaf decoction). The parameters observed in this study were the level of subclinical mastitis in dairy cows using the CMT and DMD test methods. The effect of giving kersen leaf decoction can reduce the positive score of subclinical mastitis cases in cattle to 25%, so it can be used as an alternative to povidone iodine for teat dipping in an effort to reduce and prevent subclinical mastitis in cattle.
