Background: the sago flour is the main result of the sago palm, while the byproduct or waste sago generally used for animal feed, compost in mushroom growing media, or as raw material for the plywood industry. Sago waste by the people of Maluku called ela sago can also play a role in improving soil fertility in this case improve the physical, chemical and biological soil after going through stages of processing into granules and granule enriched compost. Methods: The study design used was a randomized block design with three replications. The treatment consists of: without fertilizer (KGES1), compost granule 8 t ha-1 (KGES2), inorganic fertilizers (Urea, SP-36 and KCl) recommended dosage (KGES3), inorganic fertilizer + compost granule 8 t ha-1 (KGES4), ½ x doses of inorganic fertilizer + compost granule (8 t ha-1) (KGES5), 2 doses of inorganic fertilizer + compost granule 8 t ha-1 (KGES6), ½ x doses of inorganic fertilizer + compost granule 12 t ha -1 (KGES7) and 2 doses of inorganic fertilizer compost + 4 t ha-1 (KGES8). Results: Compost granules ela sago and inorganic fertilizer significantly affect the physical properties of soil that is heavy volume of land (0.80 g cm-3), a specific gravity of soil particle (2:30 g cm-3), soil porosity (7.77%), drainage pore fast (23:54%), slow drainage pores (8.83%), pore water is available (11.62%), and pore water is not available (11:31). While plant growth (plant height) and dry seed corn grain yield respectively by 249.17 cm and 7.85 tonnes ha-1. A combination of compost and inorganic fertilizer granule able to increase the yield of 30-47% compared with inorganic fertilizer or compost granule alone. Excessive inorganic fertilizer application did not show the result of increased dry seeds shelled corn is real. Based on these results, a reduction of half a dose of inorganic fertilizer combined with granulated compost 12 t ha-1 yield of dry shelled corn grain yield highest (7.79 t ha-1) or increase the yield of 32% of inorganic fertilizer application. Conclusion: Compost granules ela sago and inorganic fertilizer significantly affect soil physical properties ie soil bulk density (0.80 g cm-3), soil particle density (2:30 g cm-3), soil porosity (7.77%), soil macropore (23:54%), mesopore (8.83%), and micropore (11.62%). While plant growth (plant height) and dry seed corn grain yield respectively by 249.17 cm and 7.79 tonnes ha-1. A combination of compost and inorganic fertilizer granule able to increase the yield of 30-47% compared with inorganic fertilizer or compost granule alone. Excessive inorganic fertilizer application did not show the result of increased dry seeds shelled corn is real.

Increasing maize grain yield has been a major focus of both plant breeding and genetic engineering to meet the global demand for food, feed, and industrial uses. We report that increasing and extending expression of a maize MADS-box transcription factor gene, zmm28, under the control of a moderate-constitutive maize promoter, results in maize plants with increased plant growth, photosynthesis capacity, and nitrogen utilization. Molecular and biochemical characterization of zmm28 transgenic plants demonstrated that their enhanced agronomic traits are associated with elevated plant carbon assimilation, nitrogen utilization, and plant growth. Overall, these positive attributes are associated with a significant increase in grain yield relative to wild-type controls that is consistent across years, environments, and elite germplasm backgrounds.

<p><em>Abstrak -</em><strong> </strong><strong>Produksi padi di Indonesia setiap tahun mengalami peningkatan, namun peningkatan ini belum mampu memenuhi kebutuhan nasional sehingga impor masih harus dilakukan. Salah satu masalah dalam produksi beras adalah penggunaan pupuk berlebih yang tidak hanya meningkatkan biaya produksi, namun juga merusak kondisi tanah. Aplikasi bakteri tanah sebagai Plant <em>Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria</em> (PGPR) dapat menjadi salah satu solusi terhadap masalah ini. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengisolasi bakteri tanah dari 3 lokasi sawah daerah Bekasi, membandingkan keberadaan total bakteri pada ketiga lokasi tersebut,  dan melakukan karakterisasi isolat berdasarkan karakter yang dapat memicu pertumbuhan tanaman. Dari ketiga lokasi, diperoleh total 59 isolat dan 5 diantaranya berpotensi sebagai PGPR karena kemampuan fiksasi Nitrogen, melarutkan Fosfat, katalase positif, dan motil. Dari ketiga lokasi pengambilan sampel, BK1 memiliki jumlah total bakteri terendah karena aplikasi pemupukan dan pestisida berlebih yang ditandai tingginya kadar P total, serta tingginya residu klorpirifos, karbofuran, dan paration. Kondisi fisik tanah BK1 juga didominasi partikel liat yang menyebabkan tanah menjadi lebih padat. Peningkatan jumlah penggunaan pupuk tidak selalu diikuti peningkatan produktivitas tanaman.</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong><em>Kata Kunci</em></strong><strong><em> </em></strong>- <em>Bakteri tanah, Rhizosfer sawah, PGPR, Pupuk Hayati</em></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><em>Abstract</em><strong> - </strong><strong>Rice production in Indonesia has increased annually, but this increase has not reached national demand,so imports still done. </strong><strong>One of the problems in rice production is the use of excessive fertilizers that not only increase production costs, but also decreased the soil conditions. The application of soil bacteria as Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) can be the one solution to face this problem. The objective of this study was isolate soil bacteria from 3 locations of rice field in Bekasi, compare the total bacteria in the three locations, and characterize isolates based on the character that can promote plant growth. From three locations, a total of 59 isolates were obtained and 5 of them were potential as a PGPRs due to its Nitrogen fixation activity, Phosphate solubilization, positive catalase, and motility. From three sampling sites, BK1 has the lowest TPC value because of excessive  fertilizers and pesticides application which indicated by high total P levels, and also high chlorpyrifos, carbofuran and paration residues. The physical condition of BK1 soil is also dominated by clay particles which causes the soil more solid. Increasing of fertilizer application is not always followed by increased plant productivity.</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong> - <em>Biofertilizer, PGPR, Rice field rhizosphere, Soil Bacteria</em></p>

AbstractBread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important cereal crops in Ethiopia. The productivity of wheat is markedly constrained by nutrient depletion and inadequate fertilizer application. The experiment was conducted to study the effect of nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) fertilizer rates on growth, yield, nutrient uptake and use efficiency during 2019 cropping season on Kedida Gamela Woreda, Kembata Tembaro Zone Southern Ethiopia. Factorial combinations of four rates of N (0, 23, 46 and 69 kg Nha−1) and three rates of K2O (0, 30 and 60 kg Nha−1) in the form of urea (46–0-0) and murate of potash (KCl) (0-0-60) respectively, were laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The results showed that most parameters viz yield, yield components, N uptake and use efficiency revealed significant differences (P < 0.05) due to interaction effects of N and K. Fertilizer application at the rate of 46 N and 30 kg K ha−1 resulted in high grain yield of 4392 kg ha− 1 and the lowest 1041 from control. The highest agronomic efficiency of N (52.5) obtained from the application of 46 kg N ha−1. Maximum physiological efficiency of N (86.6 kg kg−1) and use efficiency of K (58.6%) was recorded from the interaction of 46 and 30 kg K ha−1. Hence, it could be concluded that applying 46 and 30 kg K ha−1was resulted in high grain yield and economic return to wheat growing farmers of the area. Yet, in order to draw sound conclusion, repeating the experiment in over seasons and locations is recommended.
