Sistem Kontrol Kualitas Air pada Akuaponik Ikan Nila dan Cabai Rawit Berbasis Embedded System menggunakan Fuzzy Logic


 
 
 Aquaponics is a cultivation method that combines aquaculture and hydroponics which can produce two products, namely plants and fish at a time and on relatively narrow land. The important thing in implementing aquaponics is to maintain water quality so that it remains at the standard of the two products. Automatic water quality control can make it easier for cultivators to maintain water quality more efficiently. Therefore we need an aquaponic water quality control system that focuses on the parameters of dissolved oxygen (DO), total dissolved solids (TDS), and hydrogen power (PH). DO control uses a pump that functions to increase DO levels. TDS control uses a pump that circulates AB mix nutrients to increase TDS and the addition of water volume to lower TDS. PH control uses a pump that circulates PH up and down PH. In its development, the arithmetic method used to process data is fuzzy. The output of this calculation is the duration of time the pump is running. The system is applied to a concrete pond measuring 4 x 1.5 x 1 meter with aquaponic products in the form of 100 fish and 20 cayenne pepper plants.

Supply and Demand Model for a Chili Enterprise System Using a Simultaneous Equations System

The supply and demand of various fresh chili types correspond to one another simultaneously because they can be complementary or substitute products. This study aimed to simultaneously examine the supply and demand model of red chili and cayenne peppers to support innovative chili enterprise system development. The methodology is the simultaneous equation system panel data using the years 2010–2020 time-series and provincial cross-sectional data combined with data mining techniques. The two-stage least square method was used for the estimation and simulation of the models. The results of the models comprise three identities and ten structural equations. The resulting models are all statistically fit with some drawbacks owing to the micro-level data availabilities. The simulations on the labor wages, prices, demand, and production for red chili and cayenne peppers affected the other variables within the model. In conclusion, the chili supply and demand models could support the development of the innovative chili enterprise system; however, this requires proactive collaboration and participation from all the relevant institutions and actors. Moreover, this research model is potentially applicable to other horticultural commodities.

KERAGAMAN TANAMAN DAN SUMBANGAN PENERIMAAN TUMPANGSARI KOPI DAN LADA DI KABUPATEN TANGGAMUS PROVINSI LAMPUNG

In Tanggamus, pepper trees are commonly intercropped in coffee plantations with coffee-pepper intercropping type (dominant coffee), coffee pepper type (dominant pepper), and agroforestry type. The intercropping system plays a role in improving agro-ecosystems, increasing farm productivity and income. This study aimed to study crops diversity, productivity and income of coffee-pepper intercropping farming. This study used a survey method. The survey locations were determined purposively in two sub-districts which were centers of coffee cultivation in Tanggamus, namely Ulu Belu and Air Naningan District. In the Ulu Belu District, the villages of Sinar Banten, Sinar Galih, Petai Kayu were selected purposively, and in the Air Naningan District were Datar Lebuay Village and Air Kubang Village. Primary data was collected by visiting plantations and interviewing farmers. Sample farmers were determined randomly with a total of 137 samples. The diversity of intercrops was analyzed by calculating the Benefit Index Value and Importance Value Index. The results showed that coffee plantations were generally intercropped (79-86%) with coffee and pepper. Based on the Importance Value Index, in Ulu Belu the most important intercrops were pepper, banana, avocado and cayenne pepper, while in Air Naningan they were pepper, jengkol, cayenne pepper and durian. The income of intercropping coffee farmers could reach IDR 24 million/hectare/year. This income was obtained from both the coffee-pepper intercropping or the coffee-non-pepper intercropping. The productivity of intercropping coffee ranged from 528-1,097 kg/hectare. The productivity of pepper intercrops ranged from 0.45-0.54 kg per tree and contributed 11-29% of coffee income.

The environmental adaptation to production and price risks of cayenne pepper: Learning from the Lombok Island - Indonesia

The environment in which the place of cultivation determines the level of production and income of the farm, but how the behavior of farmers in the use of technology to achieve high levels of productivity and prices of cayenne pepper is something that still is not known. This study aims to find environmental adaptation technologies that can increase the production and price of cayenne pepper in a changing environmental situation. The study used exploratory methods in three villages of the chili production centers that have different altitudes. The unit of analysis in this study is the cayenne pepper crop that was planted in 2020/2021. As respondents, 45 farmers who grow cayenne pepper were randomly chosen. The highest productivity of cayenne was found in the lowlands at 11,133 kg/ha, in the midlands at 10,277 kg/ha, and the lowest in the highlands at 9,400 kg/ha. Cayenne pepper production risk is highest in the highlands at 0.46, in middle lands at 0.42, and lowest in the lowlands at 0.34. For it is part, the price risk is classified as high in the highlands at 0.62, the middle lands at 0.61, and the lowlands at 0.60. The behavior of farmers in coping with agricultural risks is considered a risk-taker. Cayenne pepper agricultural production still has an opportunity to increase by increasing the area of farmland, labor, urea or ZA fertilizers, SP36 fertilizers, and by increasing the ability of farmers to manage agricultural risks.

Spatial market integration for food price stabilization during the Covid 19 pandemic in West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia: A case study of the cayenne pepper

The Covid-19 pandemic can affect the movement and prices of agricultural commodities, including red chili peppers as a result of restrictions on community activities or lock-down. This study aims to empirically examine the spatial integration of the four main markets for cayenne pepper in West Nusa Tenggara, namely Mandalika (Mataram City), Aikmel (East Lombok), Seketeng (Sumbawa), and Amahami (Bima City).The analysis was carried out using the Johansen Cointegration Model and the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) using weekly time series data. The results of the study concluded that the four markets studied are spatially integrated. The role of the Aikmel market is very dominant for the occurrence of price volatility compared to the other three markets.

Abundance and diversity of predatory insects in chili plant ecosystems cultivated by IPM

Cayenne pepper is a strategic commodity. The use of chemical insecticides to control pests has a negative impact on the agroecosystem. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an environmentally solution to overcome pest problems. The objectives of this study were to determine the abundance and diversity of predatory insects. Sampling was carried out in August-October 2020 in west Lombok, Indonesia, on chili fields using the IPM technique. Observations were conducted on the generative phase of chili planting and carried out using the Yellow Pan and Pitfall Trap. The population of predatory insects in chili with IPM was 1,707 individuals representing 24 species from 8 families and 5 orders. The order Hymenoptera was the most abundant (63.27%) of the total predatory insects collected, followed by Coleoptera (30.93%), and Diptera (4.63%). The diversity index of predatory species is 1.79 in land planted with chili using IPM techniques. Chili plant using IPM techniques has more abundance and divers of predatory insect species than conventional chili land. This study provides some insight into the community of predatory insects in the generative phase of the chili ecosystem and suggests that an ecological approach is needed for pest management to maintain the balance of the agroecosystem and promote biodiversity.

Sustainable horticultural products in Indonesian traditional retail market

Red chili, cayenne pepper, shallot, and garlic are horticultural products that are very important for the essential ingredients of various cuisines in Indonesia. Although household expenditure on those products is relatively small compared to total food expenditure, the government pays great attention to its price movements. This study aims to analyze price behaviour at the retailer level in traditional markets. The data used in the study are obtained from the National Strategic Food Price Information Center (PIHPSN) of the Central Bank of Indonesia, the daily price data for horticultural products at the wholesale and retail market levels. The regression model built in this study was estimated using the 3SLS method. The results showed that horticultural product retailers in traditional markets tried to stabilize prices. However, the results cannot conclusively conclude the existence of averaging price practices. This research also showed a spill over effect of rice’s retail price on the price of horticultural products in traditional markets. This study’s results are expected to help formulate government policies to stabilize food prices at the consumer level.

Foliar fertilizers improved fruit set and yield of cayenne pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.) grown off-season

The fruit set and yield of cayenne pepper grown during the rainy season (off-season) is relatively lower than during the dry season. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of some foliar fertilizers in improving the fruit set and yield of cayenne pepper grown off-season on dryland. An experiment was conducted during the rainy season of 2021/2022 on a dryland area of Gumantar, North Lombok, Indonesia. Four foliar fertilizers and one control were tested on two varieties of cayenne pepper. The foliar fertilizers were: bio-organic (Pomi), silicate and boron (X-ZO), micronutrients (Meroke Fitoflex), and a mix of macro and micronutrients (Bayfolan). The two varieties were: hybrid (Dewata 43) and open-pollinated (Sret). The treatments were arranged in a factorial randomized block design with three replications. After five harvests, the results showed no interaction between foliar fertilizer and variety in affecting fruit set and yield. The foliar fertilizers improved the fruit set and yield of cayenne pepper. The most significant improvement was the bio-organic fertilizer with 10.6% and 42.5 % for fruit set and fruit weight per plot, respectively, compared to the control treatment. The hybrid variety yielded 822.5 g plant−1, higher than the open-pollinated ones with 632.3 g plant−1.

Minimal Influence of Cayenne Pepper on the Human Gastrointestinal Microbiota and Intestinal Inflammation in Healthy Adult Humans-A Pilot Study.

Diet impacts human gut microbial composition. Phytochemicals in cayenne pepper (CP), such as capsaicin, have anti-inflammatory properties and alter bacterial growth in vitro. However, the evidence that CP impacts the human microbiota and intestinal inflammation in free-living adults is lacking. Thus, the objective of this randomized cross-over study was to determine the influence of CP on human gut microbiota and intestinal inflammation in vivo. A total of 29 participants were randomly allocated to consume two 250 mL servings of tomato juice plus 1.8 g of CP each day or juice only for 5 days before crossing over to the other study arm. Fecal samples were analyzed. CP reduced Oscillibacter and Phascolarctobacterium but enriched Bifidobacterium and Gp6. When stratified by BMI (body mass index), only the increase in Gp6 was observed in all BMI groups during CP treatment. Stool concentrations of lipocalin-2 and calprotectin were similar regardless of CP treatment. However, lipocalin-2 and calprotectin levels were positively correlated in samples taken after CP consumption. Neither lipocalin-2 nor calprotectin levels were related to gut microbial composition. In conclusion, in healthy adult humans under typical living conditions, consumption of CP minimally influenced the gut microbiota and had little impact on intestinal inflammation.
