Okra (Abelmochus esculentus L. Moench) has a fairly high nutritional content; every 10 gr of young okra fruit contains 33 calories, 7 gs of carbohydrates, 3.2 gs of fiber, and 81 mg calcium. Okra fruit contains a lot of mucilage due to its high fiber content. This study aimed to determine the effect of rock phosphate doses and types of mycorrhizae and the interaction between these two factors on the growth and yield of okra in saline soil. The research results showed that the dose of mycorrhiza had a very significant effect on the growth and yield of okra plants. The best dose of mycorrhiza was 10 g/plant, and the best type was Acauluspora. It showed that a dose of 10 g/plant with the Acauluspora type on okra yields on Ultiisol soil had given the best results in the vegetative phase, which could be seen in plant height parameters 15 and 30 ADP. The dose of rock phosphate is 150 g, which can be seen in the 300 g planting parameter and in almost all the observed variables. Hyphae in the soil can spread widely, which helps absorb more water. The best yields of okra plants were found by applying a mycorrhizal dose of 10 g on fruit weight variables of plants' mycorrhizal colonization on vase vegetative roots and mycorrhizal colonization on plant roots in the generative phase.

One of the medicinal plants that are rarely cultivated in Indonesia is okra. This plant has a business opportunity that can bring benefits to farmers. This research aimed to elucidate the effect of a compost mixture of coffee grounds and milled eggshell on nitrogen and calcium contents in a regosol soil and growth and yield of okra plants. Fertilizer treatments tested were: P0 (control), P1 (100% inorganic), P2 (25% compost + 75% inorganic), P3 (50% compost + 50% inorganic ), P4 (75% compost + 25% inorganic), and P5 (100% compost). The results showed that the application of a compost mixture of coffee grounds and eggshell with a dose of 100% compost had a significant effect on increasing soil pH, total N, and Ca compared to control, namely 30,77%, 147,52%, and 643,54%, but did not significantly affect the organic C of the soil. The application of coffee grounds and milled eggshell compost with a dose of 100% significantly affected plant height at 8 WAP and plant stem diameter at 6 WAP. The application of coffee grounds and milled eggshell compost with a dose of 100% significantly increased fresh fruit weight and dry weight of okra plants, respectively 18.27% and 33.33% compared to the control.

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan P2G4 yang terbaik pada tinggi tanaman (64,70 cm), perlakuan P1G4 yang terbaik pada jumlah daun (27 helai), perlakuan P2G4 yang terbaik pada umur berbunga (53 hari), perlakuan P4G1 yang terbaik pada berat buah (80 gram).

Tanaman Okra menjadi salah satu komoditas yang masih belum besar di Indonesia, namun memiliki jumlah permintaan yang terus bertambah. Produksi Okra dalam negeri masih fluktuatif sehingga belum memenuhi kebutuhan nasional. Kurangnya produksi polong okra salah satunya disebabkan oleh ketersediaan benih yang masih terbatas. Upaya meningkatkan produksi dan kualitas benih okra melalui aplikasi pupuk fosfor dan GA3. Pupuk fosfor dapat membantu dalam proses metabolisme pertumbuhan tanaman dan sebagai sumber energi untuk pembelahan dan pembesaran sel dalam pembentukan bunga, buah dan biji. Aplikasi GA3 juga mampu meningkatkan sistem metabolisme dan menghasilkan akumulasi fotosistat sehinggamenghasilkan presentase daya tumbuh benih lebih baik. Penelitian disusun berdasarkan rancangan acak kelompok dua faktor yaitu faktor pertama dosis pupuk Fosfor yaitu, P1 (75kg/ha SP-36), P2 (100kg/ha SP-36), P3 (125kg/ha SP-36) dan P4 (150kg/ha SP-36). Faktor kedua konsentrasi GA3 yaitu, G0 (tanpa aplikasi GA3), G1 (50 mg/l), G2 (100mg/l), dan G3 (150mg/l). Sehingga terdapat 16 kombinasi perlakuan dengan ulangan 3 kali. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji lanjut jarak berganda duncan (α,5%) dan uji beda nyata terkecil (α,5%). Hasil penelitian aplikasi GA3 50 mg/l dapat meningkatkan berat biji per polong 3,77 gram, berat biji per tanaman 49,2 gram dan produksi benih 1,98 ton/ha. Kualitas benih pada presentase benih bernas dapat meningkat hingga 96% pada aplikasi konsentrasi GA3 100 mg/l. Pemberian fosfor 75kg/ha SP-36 dan konsentrasi GA3 50mg/l memberikan interaksi pada daya berkecambah benih 90% dan karbohidrat benih 42%.

Wound is a condition that is the destruction of the unity or network components, which are specifically found the substance of tissue damaged or lost, either damage the continuity of the skin, mucous membranes and bones or other organs. Wound healing is a very complex process involving many cells. The process of wound healing is portrayed as occurs in biological surgical wound occurred. Several phases of wound healing are: the process of inflammation (inflammatory), the process of cell multiplication (proliferation) and cell maturation process (maturase). Okra is a plant that allegedly came from Southeast Asia. Okra has grown in many countries in almost all over the world. In the UK okra known as the Lady's Finger, in India it is called by the name of Bhindi while the United States called Gumbo. In Indonesia, this plant also has a local name that is Rabamea (Bima), Coffee Java (Java), Arabian Coffee (Sulawesi), Hoinu (Southeast Sulawesi), but better known by the name of okra. This study aims to determine the effective concentration and determine the length of time of wound healing using a combination gel okra fruit extract (Abelmoschus esculentus) And shallots (Allium cepa L.) as an anti-inflammatory against cuts in male white rats (Sprague -Dawley) with a length of observation for 9 days. This study uses Betadine® ointment as a positive control. The results showed the combination of fruit extract gel okra 6% and shallots 2% contained in the formula 3 most effective as an anti-inflammatory against cuts in male rats by administration for 6 days.

This study was conducted in Technical College of Applied Sciences, Sulaimany Polytechnic University, during 2017. Different levels of irrigation were used to production of okra plant. Complete Randomize Design used to layout of the experiment, with three level of irrigation in four replications. Yield, fresh weight of plant, dry weight of plant, yield response factor and different levels of irrigation were observed. The highest yield was given from treatment T1 (3.17 t/ha.) and the lowest was given from T3 (2.988 t/ha.). Also, the maximum fresh weight and dry weight of plant were given from T1 (61.40, 11.218 t/ha.), and their minimum was given from treatment T3 (57.00, 8.783 t/ha.). The highest water use efficiency and harvest index were obtained from T3 (1.615 kg.m-3, 0.095), and the lowest was given from treatment T1 (1.055 kg.m-3, 0.094). The crop response factor and the results in this study showed that the okra plants have a good response of water stress. As a result, we can recommend cultivating the okra at that time without irrigation in that region.

Mount Kelud is one of the most active volcanoes in Indonesia. Ash volcanic that released by Mount Kelud has some nutrients needed for plant, but requires a weathering process so as to provide nutrients in the soil. The soil that affected by Mount Kelud was given the addition of compost and urea fertilizer has residual effect for the next plant growth. This research was conducted in greenhouse of Agriculture Faculty, Brawijaya University from January until June 2017. This research used a completely randomized design with 5 treatments and 3 replications. The treatment consisted of A1: 2/3 soil residue (100% urea) + 1/3 goat manure compost; A2: 2/3 soil residue (100% chicken manure compost) + 1/3 goat manure compost; A3: 2/3 soil residue (100% cow manure compost) + 1/3 goat manure compost; A4: 2/3 soil residue (50% urea + 50% chicken manure compost) + 1/3 goat manure compost; A5: 2/3 soil residue (50% urea + 50% cow manure compost) + 1/3 goat manure compost. Variables of the observation were availability and uptake of NPK, plant height, number of leaves, number of pods, yield, and dry weight plant of okra. The results showed that compost residue and urea in the application of goat manure compost with ratio 2:1 had no effect in NPK availability on soil affected by Mount Kelud eruption. In plant’s parameter, there were effects on number of leaves at observation 12 weeks and P uptake, but no effect on N and K uptake, and okra’s yield.
