PELATIHAN TEKNIS PEMBUATAN KOMPOS JERAMI PADI DI DESA BANJARREJO KECAMATAN BATANGHARI KABUPATEN LAMPUNG TIMUR

The level of fertility of paddy fields in Banjarrejo was decreasing, this is indicated by low rice productivity, fertilization response was leveling off, topsoil was shallow, and rice easy lodged. Fertility degradation of paddy fields occurs continuously. Factors that encourage the ongoing process of soil fertility degradation is a concept application of High External Input Agriculture (HEIA) on the cultivation of crops, especially rice. Rice straw can be used as an alternative to increase soil fertility and maintain the health of paddy field. Straw is the main product of rice cultivation in the form of organic fertilizer because its potential reaches 1.5 x grain yield. However, the potential that is available cheaply and easily and Lack of information and knowledge about straw causes many farmers not to utilize straw to the fullest. Straw is still regarded as an obstacle in tillage, where the nest mice, disease sources, and sources of dirt that must be cleaned. Farmers have not used it to be composted because many still do not have the skills to make it. State Polytechnic of Lampung has the role and responsibility to transfer technology that is beneficial to society especially in the case of making straw compost through the program of Community Service. Technical Training Composting of Rice Straw was conducted in Banjarrejo Village, Batanghari District, East Lampung Regency in April-September 2013. The use of straw compost in paddy fields can increase rice production while maintaining sustainable soil health.

Sustainable Farming

ABSTRACTOrganik matter has an important role in determining soil health of sugarcane, i.e. soil capacity to support sugarcane to produce sustainable high yield. Soil organic matter influences soil physical, chemical, and biological properties, so that a consequence of declining soil organic matter is poorer soil fertility and lower yield. This paper has an objective to elucidate the important role of organic matter on sustainable farming of sugarcane. The important role of organic matter in soil fertility has been known for a long time before Green Revolution concept was introduced. With more intensity in sugarcane farming and more increasing of sugar demand, application of organic fertilizer started to be substituted by chemical fertilizer. Using green manure and/or biofertilizer has a chance to be spread out to the farmers due to more practical and more efficient than solid organik fertilizer, such as dung manure or compost. Future research should be focusing on the efectivity of green manure and or biofertilzer sources in improving soil fertility and cane yield, minimizing soil pathogen, reducing soil erosion of sugar cane land monoculture, and improving awareness of farmers about soil degradation as consequences of sugarcane monoculture planting for years.Keywords: Organic matter, sugarcane, soil health sustainable farming Bahan Organik: Peranannya dalam Budidaya Tebu BerkelanjutanABSTRAKBahan organik tanah berperan penting dalam menentukan kesehatan tanah tebu, yaitu kapasitas tanah yang dapat mendukung produksi tebu yang tinggi secara berkelanjutan. Kadar bahan organik tanah mempengaruhi sifat fisik, kimia dan biologi tanah. Paper ini bertujuan untuk menguraikan tentang peranan bahan organik dalam memperbaiki sifat fisik, kimia dan biologi tanah pertanaman tebu. Pentingnya peran bahan oganik tersebut sudah disadari dari dulu, sehingga sebelum revolusi hijau penggunaan pupuk organik sudah umum dilakukan petani. Dengan semakin intensifnya budidaya tebu dan semakin meningkatnya kebutuhan gula, pemanfaatan pupuk organik sudah jarang dilakukan. Diperlukan usaha untuk meningkatkan dan mempertahankan kadar bahan organik pada lahan tebu, antara lain berupa gerakan masal dalam bentuk gerakan nasional melalui program aplikasi bahan organik. Pemanfaatan pupuk hijau dan/atau pupuk hayati berpeluang untuk diterapkan karena lebih praktis dan efisien daripada penambahan pupuk organik padat. Penelitian ke depan perlu difokuskan untuk mengkaji jenis-jenis pupuk organik dan pupuk hayati yang efektif memperbaiki kesuburan, dalam menekan serangan penyakit, meminimalkan erosi pada lahan-lahan tebu monokultur, dan meningkatkan kesadaran petani tebu tentang terjadinya degradasi lahan akibat penanaman tebu yang terus menerus.Kata kunci: Bahan organik, tebu, kesehatan tanah, budidaya berkelanjutan

Low External Input

The development of organic rice has been implemented in recent years in Pasawahan District, Purwakarta Regency. Philosophically, organic agriculture breaks away from its dependence on external inputs such as the LEISA (Low External Input Sustainable Agriculture) concept, therefore the availability of materials (such as organic fertilizers) provided at the local level is imperative. Consider the potential of livestock in KecamatanPasawahan, so far the utilization of animal waste to become inputs of organic farming production and other uses, such as as an energy source, is still not optimal. This community service activity aims to re-introduce the knowledge of organic fertilizer and introduce biogas/biodigester technology. In particular, this program seeks to apply that knowledge in the form of piloting the manufacture of organic fertilizers and installation of portable biogas installations at the site of community work activities. To achieve this, this program applied participatory approaches to the entire empowerment process, including workshop activities, training, monitoring and evaluation, and mentoring and consultancy, all of which are conducted in a participatory way. Related to the limited facilities and budgeting, for biodigester installations was conducted at one farmer's stall location, which is expected to become a model, while for the pilot of organic fertilizer making is done at several locations of farmer's land.

Guidance And Counseling

One of the reasons for the decline in rice production in Indonesia is that most of the paddy fields are already degraded, which is characterized by, among other things, low organic matter content. straw produced in rice cultivation is 7 tonnes / ha. However, the components of rice straw are mainly cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and small amounts of protein which make the C / N value high. The methods used in this activity are in the form of counseling, demonstration plots / pilots of making rice straw compost, guidance and counseling, field applications or planting rice using compost, monitoring and field evaluation. The results of the community service that has been carried out in Karyasari Village, Rengas Dengklok District, Karawang Regency were carried out by 10 members and this research was carried out well and by monitoring to see how successful compost from agricultural waste was.

Descriptive Method

Vermi plays an important role in improving soil fertility and structure. This study was conducted to find out the perceptions of vermi raisers on different vermicomposting practices adopted in Zamboanga del Sur, Philippines. The researchers utilized the descriptive method in gathering the necessary data. Results revealed that the combination of 60% rice straw, 5% kakawate, and 35% manure is the most preferred feeding materials. The respondents also revealed that the 5% inclusion rate of jackfruit, banana, and pineapple peelings in the bedding materials increases the vermi population as compared to pure rice straw, kakawate, and manure. The higher cost of inputs and labor and pest invasion are the two most encountered problems. Covering the bed with canvass or galvanized iron, follow the correct procedure in the pre-decomposition process, and seek assistance from the agriculturists are the three most effective practiced solutions. The findings showed that the population of vermi can be doubled with the inclusion of jackfruit, banana and pineapple peelings in the substrate. Moreover, the harvest time is reduced due to higher consumption level. Vermicomposting is very necessary to answer the increasing demand for organic fertilizer amidst climate change.

Short Term

Agricultural fertilization significantly affects nutrients cycling in paddy soils. However, there are few systematic studies on the response of the application of livestock manure and corresponding organic fertilizer resulting in the microorganism and its nutrients entering farmland. Short-term application of pig manure and its corresponding organic fertilizer on the microorganisms of paddy fields were investigated. High-throughput sequencing technology was conducted to comprehensively study the microbial community composition and structure. Our results showed that organic fertilizer effectively enhanced nutrient substances such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium at ripening stage and reduced the pH of soil, benefitting the soil fertility and the growth of rice. Though application of pig manure maintained higher microbial diversity, it increased the relative abundance of several pathogenic bacteria, which could threaten the soil health of the paddy fields. A large number of pathogenic bacteria can be reduced through composting pig manure to organic fertilizer. Nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria such as Anaerolineaceae, Pseudarthrobacter, Bacillus, and Nitrospira in the paddy soil were significantly promoted. The heavy metals such as Pb, Cr, and Cd, and nutrient substances such as phosphorus, as well as temperature, have important influences on the microbial compositions in ripening stage. The correlation analysis revealed more correlation efficiencies were observed with manure application, especially with the application of organic fertilizer. This study will provide a theoretical basis for improving land productivity and sustainable development in paddy fields.

Natural Decomposition

Various kinds of activities carried out by PKK mothers in filling their time working at home during the Covid-19 pandemic, one of which is farming around the yard. This farming activity certainly requires useful fertilizers to increase plant fertility. Biopores is an effort that can be made to improve soil health and trigger the natural decomposition of organic matter. The organic material used can come from kitchen waste. So far, biopores are known as an effort to overcome standing water and are still not widely used to increase soil fertility. This service aims to provide information on the manufacture and application of biopores in plants so that they can increase soil fertility in cultivated plants. The method used consists of lecturing methods, hands-on practice, and evaluating the achievement of activities using achievement measures. Based on the results of the posttest evaluation, there was an increase in the knowledge of PKK mothers about biopores, where initially only 40% increased to 100%. In addition, the direct practice of making and applying biopores carried out on one of the PKK mothers is an indicator of the high interest of PKK mothers in applying biopores. It can be concluded that community service activities are quite effective in increasing the ability and interest of PKK mothers in applying biopores to plants around their house yards.

The Impact

Rice straw is an abundant resource that was still seen as a waste in intensive rice cultivation. Rice straw is said to be a resource because it can be used as organic fertilizer (compost) and contains nutrients that were beneficial for crop growth and soil fertility. The fact in the field was still found that rice straw was wasted, one of which was burned. A study was conducted through a method of observation and survey involving rice paddy farmers in 3 sub-districts in the district of Klungkung, namely Banjarangkan, Klungkung and Dawan. The aim of the research was to know the production of rice straw waste and the potential of wasted organic fertilizer in intensive rice cultivation. Based on the results obtained the production of dried straw waste in each harvest about 10.21 tons/ha. Farmers do not utilize rice straw as compost by reason, not knowing how to composting. There were 30.34% of farmers who burn straw because based on the knowledge gained burn is an easy way to restore rice straw to the ground. The impact of burning rice straw was around 5,887,086 - 7,888.7 tons of organic fertilizer wasted.

Production, quality and availability of forage one of which is determined by soil fertility and soil health. The use of chemical fertilizers (inorganic) in a period of time is one of the causes of land degradation (Kartini, 2007), application of organic fertilizers is the right step in maintaining soil fertility and soil health, and reduce the negative impact of the use of inorganic fertilizers. The study aimed to evaluate the response of regrowth and production of several species of grass to organic fertilizer conducted in a greenhouse using a completely randomized design split plot pattern 3 x 4 with three replications. The first factor (main plot / main plot) is a type of grass is Panicum maximum var. trichoglume (R1), Setaria splendida (R2), and Pennisetum purpureum (R3); The second factor (sub-plot / subplot) is a type of organic fertilizer that is without fertilizer (P0), manure (P1), compost (P2), and vermicompost (P3). The results showed that there was no interaction effect between type of grass with the type of organic fertilizer on the regrowth and production of grass Panicum maximum var. trichoglume, Setaria splendida, and Pennisetum purpureum. Treatment types of grass significant (P <0.05) on all observed variables, while the treatment of organic fertilizers only significant (P <0.05) in the variable number of tillers, number of leaves, stem dry weight, total dry weight of forage and leaf area per pot. Based on the results of this study concluded that there was no interaction effect between type of grass with organic fertilizer. The three types of grass have different productivity, highest growth in grass with vermicompost fertilizer and highest production in grass with compost fertilizer.Key words: Organic fertilizers, panicum grass, Setaria grass, elephant grass

Composting of Rice Straw for Organic Fertilizer and Manufacturing Rice Husk Charcoal as Planting Medium in Soybean Demonstration Plot. Agricultural waste is the residue from an agricultural business activity, which if left unchecked can have a negative impact on the environment. Agricultural waste such as rice straw can be used for organic fertilizers because it has high potassium and lignin content. The purpose of this community service activity is to increase the knowledge and skills of the community and farmers about straw processing through the composting stage as organic fertilizer and burning rice husks into husk charcoal as a planting medium in soybean cultivation. Community service was carried out from July to August 2020 in Pengkok Village, Kedawung District, Sragen Regency, namely in the Subur and Sumber Agung farmer groups. Community service activities carried out are counseling or socialization of the use of straw and husk charcoal as organic fertilizer and planting media, then proceed with demonstrations or practices for making organic fertilizers and husk charcoal which are continued with planting soybeans in polybags with the application of compost and husk charcoal that have been made. The result of this service activity is that participants or farmer groups can make organic fertilizer from straw waste and husk charcoal independently and can be applied when cultivating soybeans in polybags as well as understanding the stages of making straw compost and burning husks into husk charcoal. The conclusion from the service activities that have been carried out is the understanding of the knowledge of community service participants about the methods or stages of composting in making organic fertilizer and making husk charcoal from rice husk waste for planting media as proven by farmers being able to make organic fertilizer from rice straw which initially becomes waste that is not optimal. used as compost which is made through the composting stage and the manufacture of husk charcoal using the burning method in a funnel and then applied in the soybean demonstration plot experiment in polybags.
