Permintaan Pupuk Organik pada Usaha Tani Padi di Kabupaten Magelang

Nurul Izzah Rahmawati — 2026-04-29

Organic fertilizer is an important production input in organic farming. This study aims to: (1) examine the level of manure fertilizer use among farmers in Sawangan Sub-district, Magelang Regency; and (2) analyze the determinants of manure fertilizer demand in organic rice farming in the area. Sawangan Sub-district was purposively selected as the study location because it is a center of organic farming in Magelang Regency. The respondents consisted of 30 organic rice farmers selected using a purposive sampling method. This study employed a descriptive-analytical approach, supported by a t-test and Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression analysis. The results show that: (1) the level of organic manure fertilizer used by farmers is statistically higher than the recommended level; and (2) increases in farmland area, compost fertilizer price, and rice price increase the demand for manure fertilizer, while the manure fertilizer price decreases the demand for organic manure fertilizer.

Potensi Biochar sebagai Media Pembawa Bakteri Halotoleran untuk Meningkatkan Kesuburan Tanah Salin: Review Literatur

Dora Silvia Dewi — 2026-04-29

Soil salinization is one of the major limiting factors in agricultural production because it deteriorates the physical, chemical, and biological properties of soil and inhibits plant growth. This article aims to review the potential of biochar as a carrier medium for halotolerant bacteria to improve the fertility of saline soils through a narrative literature review approach. The review examines scientific publications related to the characteristics of saline soils, the mechanisms of halotolerant bacteria, the properties of biochar as a soil ameliorant and microbial carrier, and the synergistic interaction between biochar and bacteria in the soil– plant system. The findings indicate that halotolerant bacteria enhance plant tolerance to salinity stress through the production of phytohormones, exopolysaccharides, ACC deaminase, osmoprotectants, phosphate solubilization, nutrient mobilization, and ionic homeostasis regulation. Meanwhile, biochar has high porosity, large surface area, water-holding capacity, cation exchange capacity, and surface functional groups that support microbial viability, adhesion, biofilm formation, and colonization. The combination of biochar and halotolerant bacteria has the potential to generate synergistic effects by improving soil structure, increasing water and nutrient retention, reducing sodicity impacts, strengthening soil biological activity, and enhancing plant growth under saline conditions. However, the effectiveness of this technology is strongly influenced by biochar feedstock, pyrolysis temperature, particle size, bacterial strain compatibility, formulation method, and environmental conditions during application. This review concludes that biochar as a carrier for halotolerant bacteria is a promising approach for sustainable saline soil rehabilitation, particularly in marginal lands and coastal areas. Further research is needed to standardize formulations, conduct multi-season field trials, and evaluate technical and economic feasibility at the farmer scale.

Kemampuan Isolat Bakteri Asam Laktat dari Kolostrum Kambing Saanen terhadap Berbagai Macam Antibiotik dengan Difusi Sumuran

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolates used as starter cultures may have reduced viability when consumed alongside antibiotics. This study aimed to evaluate the resistance of LAB isolates from Saanen goat colostrum to various antibiotics dan to select suitable isolates for use as starter cultures. The method used was the well diffusion test on 9 LAB isolates (KS-D, KS-F, KS-H, KS-J, KS-N, KS-S, KS-T, KS-U, KS-W) dan 4 antibiotics (amoxicillin, cefadroxil, cefixime, dan ciprofloxacin). The results showed that cefadroxil had the highest activity (29.1 mm), followed by ciprofloxacin (23.6 mm), amoxicillin (19.9 mm), dan cefixime (16.6 mm). The KS-T isolate exhibited the highest resistance to amoxicillin (8.8 mm), cefixime (8.5 mm), dan ciprofloxacin (1 mm) but was sensitive to cefadroxil (24.3 mm). The KS-T isolate is recommended as the primary cdanidate starter culture for co-administration with antibiotic therapy. The KS-D dan KS-J isolates are alternative cdanidates, dan the majority of isolates are sensitive to antibiotics. The conclusion of this study is that the KS-T isolate is the primary cdanidate, while the KS-D dan KS-J isolates are alternatives.

Strategi Pengembangan Pasar Tradisional di Era Digital: Analisis SWOT pada Pasar Wage dan Pasar Manis di Purwokerto

Fadhil Nugraha — 2026-04-29

Pasar tradisional di Purwokerto memiliki peran strategis sebagai pusat aktivitas ekonomi dan ruang interaksi sosial masyarakat. Namun, di era digital, keberadaannya menghadapi tantangan akibat perubahan perilaku konsumen, perkembangan teknologi, serta meningkatnya persaingan dengan ritel modern dan platform daring. Penelitian ini bertujuan merumuskan strategi pengembangan pasar tradisional melalui studi kasus Pasar Wage dan Pasar Manis. Metode yang digunakan adalah deskriptif dengan pendekatan kualitatif, melalui observasi, wawancara mendalam, dan studi literatur. Responden dipilih menggunakan teknik bola salju yang melibatkan pedagang dan pengelola pasar. Analisis data dilakukan dengan pendekatan SWOT untuk mengidentifikasi faktor internal dan eksternal yang memengaruhi pengembangan pasar. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kekuatan pasar tradisional terletak pada lokasi strategis, pelayanan personal, ketersediaan produk segar lokal, dan harga yang kompetitif. Sementara itu, kelemahan utama meliputi keterbatasan permodalan, rendahnya adopsi teknologi digital, tata ruang yang kurang optimal, serta tingginya risiko kerusakan produk. Dari sisi eksternal, peluang pengembangan didukung oleh kemajuan teknologi digital, meningkatnya preferensi terhadap produk segar, dukungan program UMKM, dan potensi wisata niaga. Adapun ancaman berasal dari ketidakstabilan pasokan, persaingan dengan ritel modern dan e-commerce, persaingan harga internal, serta risiko kebakaran. Berdasarkan analisis SWOT, dirumuskan strategi pengembangan berupa digitalisasi layanan dan pembayaran, penguatan rantai pasok berbasis platform digital, peningkatan akses permodalan, pengembangan pasar sebagai destinasi wisata niaga, serta pendampingan literasi digital bagi pedagang. Strategi ini diharapkan mampu meningkatkan daya saing dan keberlanjutan pasar tradisional di era ekonomi digital.
