This study aims to determine the relationship between Earthworm Population and C-organic and N-total in Horticulture and Coffee Monoculture cultivation in Nduaria Village, Kelimutu District. This research was conducted using an exploratory method that is carried out by direct observation from the observation location. How to calculate earthworms using the hand sorting method. The method commonly used for the determination of C-organic is the Walkley and Black method, while the method used for the determination of N-total is the Kjehdahl method. This method is used because it is considered simple, fast, easy to do, and requires little equipment. The results of this study indicate that in horticultural land there is no earthworm population found at all depths. Earthworm populations were found at all depths in the coffee plantation monoculture, the highest population was at a depth of 0-10 cm as many as 41 m2, Biomass was 9 g, and Biomass vs Population 0.21 m2. In horticultural fields, the highest c-organic and n-total is at a depth of 0-10 cm, the c-organic value is 3.03% (high criteria) and n-total is 0.47% (medium criteria). The close relationship between the earthworm population, biomass, and biomass versus population was positively correlated with c-organic and n-total in horticultural land and coffee monoculture.

The purpose of this research was to examine the response of water spinach plants to the application of bioactive fermented liquid organic fertilizer on plant growth. This research used a method consisting of two treatments and one combination, namely a combination of watering and spraying treatments, as well as watering, spraying, and control. This experimen was conducted in the outdoor laboratory of SMKN 63 Jakarta, on land Kale plants. From this research, it was found that the combination of watering and spraying treatments was significantly higher and gave the best results compared to the watering, spraying, and control treatments. Based on the results of the study, it is known that there are differences in harvest age between the treatments of Watering, Spraying, Watering & Spraying and Control. The fastest harvesting age in the treatment of Watering & Spraying. Bioactive has a positive effect on vegetative growth and has a biopesticide effect. This is presumably because Bioactive is made from organic material/agricultural waste by aerobic and anaerobic fermentation methods so that from the fermentation it produces amino acids and alcohol which have an effect against plant vegetative growth and pests that often appear on crystal guava and breadfruit plants. During and after the experiment, no signs of pests or diseases were seen on the plants.

Response of Long Beans (Vigna sinensis L.) Due to Dosage Treatment of Compost Fertilizer from Cocoa Fruit Peel. The research was conducted in the Experimental Garden of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Flores, Lokoboko Village, Ndona District, Ende Regency from June to August 2020. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of cocoa husk fertilizer dose on the growth and yield of long beans. Using Randomized Block Design (RAK). With 5 doses of cocoa pod compost, namely: D1 : without treatment of cocoa pod skin or 0 g/plant, D2 : 5 tons per hectare of cocoa pod compost, D3 : 7.5 tons per hectare of cocoa pod compost, D4 : 10 tons per hectare of cocoa pod compost. D5 : 12.5 tons per hectare of cocoa pod husk compost. Each treatment was repeated 4 times, so that 20 trials were obtained. The application of cocoa husk compost fertilizer on long bean plants was proven to have a very significant effect on increasing the number of leaves at the observational ages of 21, 28 and 35 days after planting, leaf area at planting ages 14, 21, 28 and 35 days after planting, number of fruits, fruit weight at planting and weight. fruit per hectare The optimal dose of cocoa pod compost for long bean plants is 250gr per plant or the equivalent of 12.5 tons per hectare (D5) which is able to provide optimal growth and yield of long bean plants with an average percentage increase in the number of leaves aged 21, 28 and 35 by 20.68%; the mean leaf area at the age of 14, 21, 28 and 35 hst was 18.23%, the number of fruit was 27.57%; fruit weight per plant was 36.81% and fruit weight per hectare was 36.81%.

The use of mycorrhizal biofertilizers in shoot grafting cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) nurseries is one of the efforts made to increase cocoa growth in Sikka Regency. This study aims to determine the effect of the dose of mycorrhizal biological fertilizer on the growth of cocoa seedlings. The study used a randomized block design (RAK) with fertilizer doses of 0 g/polybag (control), 10 g/polybag, 20 g/polybag, 30 g/polybag, 40 g/polybag 50 g/polybag. The results showed that the treatment the addition of mycorrhizae on shoot grafting cocoa seedlings had no effect on all growth variables observed at 30 days after mycorrhizal application and significantly affected all growth variables for cacao seedlings aged 60 days after mycorrhizal application. Giving mycorrhizae to shoot grafting cocoa seedlings at a dose of 50 g/polybag (M5) gave the highest yield for all growth variables of cocoa seedlings aged 60 days after mycorrhizal application, namely plant height 48.50 cm, stem diameter 1.10 cm, and number of leaves 8 ,25 strands.

This study was conducted from January to March 2020. The variables observed were population and intensity of attack by Helopeltis spp. The results showed that the population of Helopeltis spp on cocoa plants at P1, P2, P3, respectively were 57, 24, 16 individuals/plant. The highest population of Helopeltis spp on cocoa was 57 individuals. The intensity of attack by Helopeltis spp was the highest at P1 was 54% with the highest R value of 0.2%.

One of the leading plantation commodities in Indonesia is cocoa (Theobroma Cacao). Through the Decree of the Minister of Agriculture and Plantation (Kepmentan) No.46 / Kpts / PD.300 / 2015 Ende Regency, East Nusa Tenggara [NTT] was determined as a mainstay cocoa plantation area, but in fact, the production was not optimal. Based on these considerations, this study aims to determine the level of cocoa farming income and the factors that influence farmers' income and analyze the feasibility and usefulness of a cocoa farming fund. The method used in this research is the descriptive method. The research location was determined by purposive sampling, based on the consideration that the area is a cocoa-producing region in Ende Regency. Sampling is the Ende Selatan District of Kedebodu and Rewarangga Villages. The population is all cocoa farmers, with a sample of 20 respondents. Data were collected by interview, questionnaire, observation, and documentation techniques. The feasibility analysis is done by the B / C ratio analysis. In addition to the analysis also conducted an analysis of income and receipts with the formula TC and TR. The results showed a B / C ratio of 5.24% which meant that the cocoa business was profitable and feasible to be developed. Total income from cocoa and non-cocoa is Rp 315,732,000. and from cocoa alone. Rp 91,532,000, - and total revenue of Rp. 73,897,000, and non-cocoa Rp. 29,933,000. While the total cost of cocoa is IDR 17,635,000 and non-cocoa IDR 194,267,000. Factors influencing the cocoa business in Ende District include level of education, gender participation, labor age, age of old cocoa plants, and not yet applying profitable technology. It is advisable for farmers to intensify cocoa farming by implementing P3S, and post-harvest processing, forming young people groups and building networks of cooperation with all stakeholders.

This study aims to determine the activity of farmers and the physical properties of soil on rice fields in the village of Detusoko Barat, Detusoko District, Ende Regency. The research method used is the method of purposive sampling. The research was carried out in paddy fields in the village of Detusoko Barat and in the soil chemical laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture, Undana. Farmer activity variables observed were rice cultivation such as seedbed, land preparation, planting, fertilizing, maintaining, harvesting. Variable physical characteristics that are analyzed temperature, rainfall, humidity, drainage, texture, effective depth, slope, surface rock, rock outcrop. The results showed that the activities of farmers in the village of West Detusoko carried out rice cultivation twice a year, tillage using a tractor and fertilizing using inorganic fertilizer. The physical properties of soil in the ciherang rice variety in Detusoko Barat village are generallyclassified as very suitable (S1) class. And in rice varieties, Bengawan also generally belongs to the (S1) class very appropriate.
