The purpose of this development study is to develop research-based booklet for the identification of fiddler crab (Uca spp.) diversity. Some people do not yet know the ecological benefits of fiddler crabs. This is apparent when some people take fiddler crabs to serve as decorative crabs. The product specifications expected in the development of this medium are booklets. Therefore, it takes a companion learning media that can lead the local community to implement self-learning in the form of booklet because their interest of reading is very less, especially when reading a book that is colorless and has a lot of words. Booklet that is packed with interesting and accompanied by pictures is an alternative solution. The development method used in the research is Exploration, Explanation, and Evaluate (3E) model. The research was conducted by developing the research result into a booklet based on the diversity of fiddler crabs in mangrove ecosystem. The booklet validation consists of two lecturers from the Department of Biology Education at the University of Muhammadiyah Malang which is a material expert and learning media expert. The result of this research is booklet very valid with the percentage of material expert validity 81.25% and learning media expert 95.13%.
Farmers who apply organic farming still have problems related to the knowledge about the making and use of organic acaricide, so it is necessary to conduct Community Partnership Program (Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat/PkM). PkM aims to provide assistance to partners so that there are improvements in terms of, (1) mastery of organic acaricide production methods of members of organic farmer groups who become partners and (2) master the method of using organic acaricide members of organic farmers who become partners. PkM's partners are Sumber Urip-I Farmers Group Wonorejo Village, Poncokusumo Sub-district, Malang Regency. PkM implementation method consists of 2 main activities, as follows: 1) Training of organic acaricide manufacture from local raw materials and 2) Training and mentoring the use of organic acaricides. Through a series of training and mentoring activities: 1) all members (100%) of PkM partners have mastered organic acaricide making methods and 2) all members (100%) of PkM partners have mastered the use and are able to increase organic acaricide production.
The decline in the ecological function of mangroves is due to the reduced area of mangroves in Cengkrong Beach, Trenggalek Regency due to deforestation, to improve environmental quality, the researcher wants to examine the ecological function of mangroves in carbon absorption and carbon storage. The purpose of this study was to analyze the ecological function of mangroves based on the ability to absorb carbon dioxide and to analyze the carbon storage capacity of mangrove forest stands at Cengkrong Beach, Trenggalek Regency. This type of research is descriptive quantitative. The population in this study were all types of mangrove trees and litter in the research plot. Research on tree diameter, tree species and number, wet weight of litter was carried out randomly using simple random sampling. The data analysis technique was correlation test using SPSS 21. The results found 8 types of mangroves, namely Avicennia marina, Bruguiera gymnorrizha, Ceriops decandra, Ceriops tagal, Rhizophora apiculata, Rhizophora mucronata, Sonneratia alba, and Sonneratia caseolaris. Carbon sequestration in Cengkrong, Trenggalek Regency has a total average of 33.963.42 tons/ha per year, equivalent to standing biomass of 20.136.6 tons/ha. The carbon storage capacity of trees is 9.262.9 tons C/ha, while the carbon storage capacity of litter is 225.48 tons C/ha.
Ciplukan (Physalis angulata L.) used by the community as an antidiabetic drug. Antidiabetic effects caused ciplukan fruit of this plant contain chemicals flavonoids with the percentage of fruit extract 300 mg / ml was 84%. Flavonoids are antioxidant compounds one that works a treat or neutralize free radicals that are expected with the administration of these antioxidants can be inhibited damage to body cells and can prevent damage to the body and the onset of degenerative diseases. This type of research is True Experimental Research. The research design using The Posttest-Only Control Group Design. The research design used completely randomized design (CRD). This research data is data SGPT and SGOT levels. Analysis of data using one-way analysis of variance at significance level of 0.05 and Duncan 5%. The results showed that different doses of fruit extract ciplukan effect on SGPT and SGOT levels of mice. Duncan test showed that the treatment dose ciplukan fruit extract is the most effective dose of 2 ml / kg. The research results can be used by teachers as information of an alternative to utilize medical plants of hyperglicemia and antiocsidant on Biology subject for X Grade of Senior High School, especially on the concept Maintenance and Utilizing of Biological Diversity in Core Competence 4.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
