Improving productivity of arabica coffee genotype G1 through potassium fertilization

Abstract One of the determinants of coffee productivity is the availability of nutrients in the soil, with potassium being among the essential nutrients required to enhance productivity. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the optimal potassium fertilizer dosage needed to increase the productivity of Arabica coffee plants of the G1 genotype. This study was conducted in the experimental garden of Syiah Kuala University in Bener Meriah Regency, Aceh Province, Indonesia using a Non-Factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD). A total of 132 Arabica coffee trees of genotype G1 were randomly selected based on specific criteria, such as 8 years of age, planted with a spacing of 2.5 x 2.5 m, pruned properly, grown under moderately dense shade of Leucaena trees, and well-maintained. The treatments included a control group without potassium fertilizer and multiple groups receiving potassium fertilizers at 29, 58, 87, 116, and 145 kg K2O per hectare. These potassium sources were derived from potassium chloride (KCl) fertilizer containing 58% K2O and Rice Husk Ash containing 2% K2O, respectively. This resulted in 11 treatment units, each comprising 3 coffee trees replicated 4 times, for a total of 44 treatment units. The results showed that potassium fertilization from KCl and Rice Husk Ash had a significant effect on the increased productivity of Arabica coffee genotype G1. The effect was observed based on the number of productive branches per tree, clusters per branch, fruits per cluster, fruits per tree, the weight of red cherries per tree, parchment coffee per tree, green beans per tree, and the green beans yield at 14% moisture content. The optimal potassium fertilizer dosage was 145 kg K2O per hectare, equivalent to 250 kg KCl or 156.25 g KCl per tree. Additionally, it was observed that potassium sourced from KCl was more effective than potassium from Rice Husk Ash due to the longer time the latter takes to improve the productivity of Arabica coffee.

Does social support and work-life conflict moderate the influence of job stress on job performance? (A study at Syiah Kuala University)

The performance of employees within an organization is intricately linked to various psychological factors they encounter. Job stress, social support, and work-life conflict emerge as pivotal elements in enhancing job performance. This study endeavors to examine the impact of job stress on job performance, taking into account social support and work-life conflict as moderating factors. Data were gathered through questionnaires distributed to a sample of 275 administrative employees at Syiah Kuala University, Indonesia. Analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) via Partial Least Squares (PLS) statistical software. The findings indicate that job stress did not significantly affect job performance (p = 0.382 > α = 0.05), whereas social support emerged as a significant moderator (p = 0.001 < α = 0.05). However, work-life conflict did not demonstrate significance as a moderator in the relationship between job stress and job performance (p = 0.866 > α = 0.05). In conclusion, the study suggests that job stress indeed influences job performance, whereas the moderating effect of work-life conflict on the relationship between job stress and job performance remains unproven. Conversely, social support is confirmed as a significant moderating factor in the influence of job stress on job performance.

THE EFFICACY OF COCOA BEAN EXTRACT MOUTHWASH CONCENTRATION IN REDUCING PLAQUE INDEX IN THE ORAL CAVITY AMONG PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS AT SDN KAYEE LEU, INGIN JAYA SUBDISTRICT, ACEH BESAR

Oral and dental diseases have a high prevalence in Indonesia, with 88.8% of the population experiencing dental caries and periodontitis. Dental plaque is a soft deposit that tightly adheres to tooth surfaces and is composed of microorganisms that contribute to the development of dental caries. Preventing caries and controlling plaque can be achieved through the use of mouthwash, which is more effective when herbal mouthwash containing antioxidants and antibacterial agents is used. Cocoa bean extract (Theobroma Cacao L.) contains secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, steroids, and exhibits antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as strong inhibitory effects against S. mutans bacteria. The objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of cocoa bean extract mouthwash concentration in reducing the plaque index in the oral cavity. The research methods included laboratory experiments and quasi-experiments with a post-test only control group design. The research was conducted at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine laboratory, University of Syiah Kuala, and SDN Kayee Leu, Aceh Besar, involving 30 students. Data analysis was performed using ANOVA in the SPSS program. The results of the study indicate that the phytochemical analysis of cocoa bean extract contains alkaloids, steroids, terpenoids, saponins, flavonoids, phenols, and tannins. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of cocoa bean extract mouthwash on the growth of Streptococcus mutans was observed at a concentration of 1%, and no Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) was found in this study. The 1% and 2% concentrations of the mouthwash effectively removed plaque compared to the 0% concentration. In conclusion, the use of cocoa bean extract mouthwash is effective in reducing the plaque index. Further research should consider clinical trials to explore its potential as an herbal remedy.
