Abstract. Suryantini. 2016. Effect of phosphorus, organic and biological fertilizer on yield of mungbean . The research investigated the effect of phosphorus rates, organic and biological fertilizer on productivity of mungbean grown after rice (cropping pattern: rice-rice-mungbean) and after soybean (cropping pattern: ricesoybean-mungbean). Treatment was arranged in a split plot design with three replications. The main plots were (i) without organic and biological fertilizer, (ii) organic soil treatment (OST) and (iii) phoshpate solubilizing biofertilizer (PSB). The subplots were phosphorus (P) fertilizer rates: 0, 100, 150 and 200 kg SP36/ha. The results revealed that the grain yield of mungbean grown after soybean was not affected by the application of OST or PSB, but it was increased by fertilizer P at 200 kg SP36/ha with an increase of 68%, from 0.60 t/ha (control) to 1.01 t/ha. Conversely, the grain yield of mungbean grown after rice was significantly affected by the interaction between fertilizer P and OST or PSB. The highest yield were obtained from the combination treatments of 150 kg SP36/ha + PSB and 150 kg SP36/ha + OST with an increase of 78% and 71% over control respectively. Increased grain yield was supported by the increase in number of pods, 100 seeds weight and plant P uptake.
Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a Multi Criterion Decision Making (MCDM) Technique. It can handle any complex, multicriterion, and multiperson problems. In AHP, the problems are decomposed into a hierarchically structure and are given the weights according to its importance. Thus, the strength with which one alternative dominates another with respect to a given criterion can be identified. The output is a priority ranking indicating the overall preference for each decision alternative. This paper describes the application of AHP to select a geothermal prospect in Sulawesi Island to be developed in the near future. The alternatives consist of three geothermal prospects. i.e., Suwawa, Pulu, and Marana. Three major criteria are used and applied into those three prospects: Geoscience, Infrastructure, and Social-culture aspects. Under each of these major criteria, there are several subcriteria. Geoscience criterion which consists of Resources, Geothermal System, and Geological Risk Subcriteria is given the highest weight with the assumption that if resources are large and can be developed commercially, then there is no reason not to be exploited; the technology and other infrastructure aspects are no longer an obstacle. The result shows that Suwawa Prospect is the best option to be developed in the near future. The second option or rank is Marana Prospect, and the third is Pulu Prospect. This result is in agreement with the future plan of the development of Sulawesi Island. If the regulation and plan of development were suddenly changed, the goal of this AHP might not be appropriate anymore, and the second or third option might replace the first rank. The benefits of using AHP are (1) the facts and reasons behind the decision are well documented, (2) able to handle quantitative and qualitative inputs, (3) able to accommodate environmental, social and other influences, and (4) able to handle subjective judgments of individuals. Lessons learned from AHP application for geothermal prospect selection could be extended into multi criterion decision making at a group level.

The objective of this study was to determine the major weeds and their controls for soybean grown after rice in lowland. The study was conducted in two stages. The first stage was a survey to observe the major weeds in soybean crops grown after rice in the farmers’ fields at three </span>central soybean production areas in Banyuwangi, namely Gambiran, Purwoharjo, and Tegal Dlimo subdistricts. The second stage was a trial conducted in lowland after rice in Genteng Research station, Banyuwangi during the dry season of 2013. The treatments were arranged in a randomized completely block design with three replications. The treatments consisted of: 1) without weed control, 2) weeding twice, 3) preemergence herbicide oxyfluorfen,(4) oxyfluorfen + postemergence 2,4-D dimethylamide, (5) oxyfluorfen + once hand weeding, and (6) once hand weeding. The results indicated that the major weeds were Oryza sativa, Cyperus rotundus, Ageratum sp., Echinochloa crusgalli, and Pilantus niruri consecutively. The weeds were effectively controlled by applying preemergence herbicide oxyfluorfen. This control method reduced the major weeds significantly and showed the same increase in seed yield as in other treatments (one and twice hand weeding) compared to the control treatment (without weeding).The soybean yield obtained from the treatment of without weeding,one hand weeding,and using oxyfluorfen herbicide was 0.60 t/ ha, 1.87 t/ha, and 1.93 t/ha, respectively.The use of oxyfluorfen herbicide is more efficient in terms of labor use than that of hand weeding. </p></div></div></div><p> </p>
