Potassium is a macro nutrient that can affect the quality and quantity of oil palm bunches as well as resistance to disease and drought stress. So far, testing the status of potassium nutrient uptake in people's plantations in Perlabian Village, Kampung Rakyat Labuhanbatu Selatan District has never been carried out. Fertilization and maintenance are carried out through knowledge from generation to generation, so it is important to have a study on the nutrient uptake status of potassium in oil palm leaves. This research was conducted using a free grid survey method at the semi-detailed survey level with a density of 100 meters. A total of 6 leaf samples were taken on the 17th leaf midrib and then rubbed with 70% alcohol and then put into the plastic sample for further testing in the laboratory of PT. Socfindo. The results showed that the potassium in leaf samples 1, 3 and 4 experienced deficiency and leaf samples 2, 5 and 6 were at the optimum. In oil palm plantations in smallholder plantations in Perlabian Village, Kampung Rakyat Subdistrict, it shows that the total K content of leaves is included in the optimum category.

Abstract Background: Palm oil is an important feedstock for biofuel. Palm oil yield is seriously affected by drought stress. However, not much is known about the molecular responses of oil palm to drought stress.Results: We studied the root transcriptomic responses of oil palm seedlings under normal culture and 14-day drought stress using RNA-seq and bioinformatics analysis. We identified 1293 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), involved in several molecular processes, such as cell wall biogenesis and functions, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and metabolisms, ion transport and homeostasis and cellular ketone metabolic process, as well as small molecule biosynthetic process. We observed that DEGs were significantly enriched into the two categories: hormone regulation and metabolism, as well as ABC transporters. In addition, we identified three protein-protein interaction networks involved in the response to drought stress, including ion transport, reactive nitrogen species metabolic process and nitrate assimilation. Finally, 96 differentially expressed transcription factors were detected to be associated with drought stress response, which were classified into 28 families.Conclusions : The transcriptomic responses of oil palm seedlings to drought stress were systematically analysed, revealing important genes, pathways, networks and transcription factors involved in drought stress responses. These results provide new insights into the mechanisms of drought stress responses in economic crops. The genes and pathways identified in this study provide valuable genomic resources to improve drought tolerance of oil palm by both genetic modification and selective breeding.

The research objective was to evaluate: 1) Implementation of integration of Bali cattle and oil palm plantations; 2) Obstacles faced in implementing the integration of Bali cattle with oil palm plantations. The study was conducted in Pasaman Barat District, which received assistance of fund from Directorate General of Animal Husbandry in 2012 in the project of integration of beef cattle with oil palm plantation. The method used were survey method, direct observation and using questionnaire. Respondents involved were members of farmer-group who carried out the integration of Bali cattle and palm oil plantation program as many as 56 people from four groups. Data was analyzed using descriptive analysis and comparing the results obtained with the objectives of the integration program itself. The results showed that the effort to integrate Bali cattle with oil palm plantation business was not optimal. The feedstuff given to cattle were superior grass and field grass originating from oil palm plantations. However, oil palm fronds and leaves have not been utilized, and palm oil industry waste in the form of palm mud, fiber palm oil, and palm kernel meal have not been used optimally as well. Utilization of cattle feces as fertilizer for oil palm plants has been used in several groups, but still in the form of untreated fertilizers. The obstacles faced in implementing this integration system are such as the lack of knowledge of farmers about integration, and the mastery of livestock waste processing technology and waste from oil palm plantations is still low, so that the application of integration has not been optimally carried out. Keywords: Bali Cattle, Integration, Oil Palm Plantation, Pasaman Barat District, Survey Method.
