Straw Mushroom (Volvariella volvaceae) as well asmushrooms edible otherhave been developed in Indonesia, including North Sumatra as a substitute for animal protein. Mushrooms or also known as button mushrooms are vegetables that are recognized to have high nutritional value, and are even believed to have medicinal properties for various types of diseases so that they have a fairly high selling value. Some studies report that in 100 grams of mushroom, only 0.17% fat is contained and even better, this fat is not bad fat. Seeing the high demand because of its nutritional value, and its rich content, its taste that is liked by many people, mushroom cultivation has a very promising market value. Basically until now the demand for mushroom continues to increase, but farmers have not been able to meet market needs. good quality start to be limited. Some farmers have started to switch to alternative planting media which is currently mostly practiced, namely oil palm pulp or empty palm oil bunches (TKKS). EFB is a waste that is very easy and is found mostly around palm oil processing factories, whose use has been limited so far as heating materials for boilers and particle wood, many empty bunches have not been utilized. This service aims to provide training in the form of mushroom cultivation using TKKS, as well as provide training in the form of post-harvest handling which is important given the lack of understanding of farmers in production and marketing activities.

During a 2-year period mature range ewes were fed rations containing 10, 20, and 30 per cent rapeseed oil meal. These rations were compared with a control ration, to 10 and 20 per cent linseed oil meal rations, and to one consisting entirely of alfalfa hay.Data were collected on body weight of ewes and lambs, weight or clean wool produced, length of wool fibre, and diameter of the fibre.In the majority of criteria that were used to assess the value of these rations, the control, alfalfa hay, and 30 per cent rapeseed oil meal rations were inferior to the 10 and 20 per cent linseed oil meal and the 10 and 20 per cent rapeseed oil meal rations.Because the 30 per cent rapeseed meal ration lacked palatabuity, the average daily feed intake was lowest in this group. The ewes receiving this ration lost weight during pregnancy, their lambs were lighter (P <.05) at birth and at 6 weeks of age, and their wool production was less than any of the other groups.No enlarged thyroids were observed in any of the ewes as a result of feeding rapeseed oil meal.

The purpose of this paper is to create an expert system to detect oil palm plant diseases in order to help farmers / companies in providing accurate information about the diseases of oil palm plants and how to overcome them and to help reduce the risk of decreasing palm oil production. This system is designed to mimic the expertise of an expert who is able to detect diseases that attack oil palm plants. The method used is forward chaining that is starting from a set of data and proving a fact by describing the level of confidence and uncertainty found in a hypothesis. The results of this study are to diagnose diseases of oil palm plants and their computerization using web programming languages.

Malaysia is the second largest palm oil producer and exporter globally. When crude palm oil is produced in both plantations and oil processing mills, a large amount of oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) is simultaneously produced as a waste product. Here, we describe the preparation of hydrolysate from OPEFB. After OPEFB was hydrothermally treated at 180–200 °C, the resultant liquid phase was subjected to high-performance liquid chromatography analysis, while the solid phase was used for acidic and enzymatic hydrolysis. Hemicellulose yield from the acid-treated solid phase decreased from 153 mg/g-OPEFB to 27.5 mg/g-OPEFB by increasing the hydrothermal treatment temperature from 180 to 200 °C. Glucose yield from the enzyme-treated solid phase obtained after hydrothermal treatment at 200 °C was the highest (234 ± 1.90 mg/g-OPEFB, 61.7% production efficiency). In contrast, xylose, mannose, galactose, and arabinose yields in the hydrolysate prepared from the solid phase hydrothermally treated at 200 °C were the lowest. Thus, we concluded that the optimum temperature for hydrothermal pretreatment was 200 °C, which was caused by the low hemicellulose yield. Based on these results, we have established an effective method for preparing OPEFB hydrolysates with high glucose content.

Although companies have many direct and indirect impacts on the lives of children, discussion of the responsibility of business to respect the rights of children has primarily focused on child labor. Using UNICEF’s Children’s Rights and Business Principles as a framework for our analysis, we considered the activities of oil palm plantation companies operating in Indonesia. Our data come from key informant interviews and reflection on two programs established to promote respect for children’s rights in the Indonesian palm oil industry: one by Pusat Kajian Perlindungan Anak (PKPA) (Center for Child Study and Protection); and one by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) in conjunction with UNICEF. We considered: how plantation company activities impacted children’s lives; how companies demonstrated respect for children’s rights; and how observance of children’s rights can be improved. We discuss four problematic issues: getting company commitments to children’s rights into policy and practice; having a strong business case for respecting human rights and children’s rights; contradictory objectives within companies; and complexities around children in the workplace. We argue that a children’s rights based approach should be applied to the activities of all organizations. This children’s rights lens is needed to overcome the invisibility of children in society and industry, and to address the root causes of human rights harms. We note that respecting children’s rights will likely contribute to getting a social license to operate and grow.
