Shallot productivity relies on diverse environmental conditions, including soil fertility. Compost is an organic material that is crucial for the improvement of soil health and fertility. Compost amendment could be employed on shallot to improve its growth and productivity. This study aims to investigate the effect of 4 different composts amendments, processed with 4 different bioactivators, on the shallot growth (Bima–Brebes variety), the dynamic of culturable microbes, and nutrient content on the growth medium inside the polybag. Treatments include a mature compost processed with no biactivators (K0), and with the bioactivator Bioaktimo (K1), Beyonic Startmik (K2), indigenous (K3), and the mixed of K1, K2, and K3 (K4). Measured parameters on shallot growth include plant height, number of leaves, stem diameter, wet and dry weights of shallot bulb, root, and above-ground biomass, and chlorophyll content. In addition, physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of the initial planting medium on the polybag were determined. The result showed that compost amendment significantly increased all parameters tested, except chlorophyll content, when compared to the control and the treatment with 100% chemical fertilizer. The best shallot growth was found in the treatment with soil planting media of 75% Soil + 25% Compost K4 (TK5). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Moringa leaf extract is a biostimulant containing various phytohormones that can spur plant growth and development. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of Moringa leaf extract as a priming agent on the germination performance of shallot seeds. The experiment began with leaf extract preparation, seed priming, and germination testing. The data obtained were analyzed using ANOVA, and if there was a significant effect, further tested with the BNJ test with α = 0.05. The data were processed using RStudio software version 4.2.1. The results stated that seed priming with leaf extract concentration of 37.5% had the best effect on all germination parameters, including average germination time (2.19 days), final germination percentage (96.53%), seed germination uniformity (95.83%), germination velocity coefficient (45.85), germination rate index (50.48%/day), sprout vigor index I (790.58), sprout vigor index II (31.30), plumula length (6.53 cm), radicle length (1.66 cm), sprout fresh weight (0.32 g), and sprout dry weight (0.0233 g). It was concluded that Moringa leaf extract has the potential as a priming agent for shallot seeds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The development of shallot agribusiness in the highlands, especially in WaeRi'i Village, Manggarai Regency, has not been optimal due to various obstacles such as the lack of farmer’s knowledge, the limited input production, and the lack of shallot agribusiness training. To solve the obstacles, community service is held to improve the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of Women Farmer Group members in the development of shallot agribusiness, in the highlands of WaeRi'i Village. In the early stages, it was found that all group members did not have in-depth knowledge and were still have technical and non-technical constraints in shallot agribusiness development. The implementation method is (1) identifying problems through interviews (2) agricultural extension related to group organizing, risk management, and risk prevention (3) shallot cultivation technical training (4) field assistance (5) agricultural marketing socialization (6) monitoring and evaluation. Community service gives a real positive impact which can be seen through the pre-test result of 6.73% and 16.16% post-test results. The success of the program can also be seen from the results of the monitoring and evaluation so that the general conclusion of shallot agribusiness development in the highlands with the Women Farmer Group has increased from the criteria of not being good to be good enough. Furthermore, it is hoped that there will be efforts to increase group capacity better than before in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Shallot is one of Indonesia’s leading horticultural commodities. Brebes Regency is the largest production area of shallot in Central Java. The fluctuating price and its high marketing margin between price by farmers and price paid by consumers affects the amount of farmer’s share received by farmers is relatively small. The purpose of this research is to analyze marketing channel, institutions, function of trading, also operational and price efficiency. The research data was obtained from observations, interviews and supporting data from relevant agencies. The results of the study indicate that there are three marketing channels that carry out each trading function. Operationally, the trading system is not yet efficient due to inequality of margins and profits, but based on quantitative calculations channel III is the most efficient channel with a margin of Rp4,250 per kg and farmer’s share of 71.67%. The trading system is already price- efficient, as seen from the vertical integration between prices at the farm level and at the wholesale level at Kramat Jati Central Market.

Asparagus is a plant from the horticultural group that has high economic value on the global and national scene. Asparagus plants in Indonesia are varieties of the results of the introduction of countries in the subtropics region, this causes the growth of asparagus plants cannot to be optimal in Indonesia. In addition, high temperature and humidity conditions in Indonesia cause plants to be susceptible to diseases and pests. Cigunungsari Village has not been doing asparagus cultivation for a long time, so many problems have occurred. Armyworm (Spodoptera litura) is the main pest that attacks asparagus in Cigunungsari Village, resulting in a decrease in the amount of harvest and quality of asparagus, so efforts are needed to overcome this problem. Efforts are being made to disseminate vegetable pesticides from red onion peel waste to the people of Cigunungsari Village. Armyworms have polyphagous properties that allow them to attack other plants. Making vegetable pesticides is relatively easy to do, soaking the onion skin in a jar filled with air. The marinade is then tightly closed and fermented for 48 hours before being applied. This vegetable pesticide still cannot be declared effective for controlling armyworm pests. However, the egg stage is the stage that has been reported to be successfully controlled, and this pesticide is repellent to ants. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Community empowerment needs to be realized to increase the independence of village communities. Community empowerment activities in the village of Mantingan, especially KWT AlIkhlas, can improve knowledge and skills related to the processing of chili and shallot agricultural products, as well as take advantage of the telang flower which is rich in benefits. The method of implementation is carried out in several activities, namely discussions with partners, trials of making chili and siwang powder, training in making chili and siwang powder, planting telang flowers, and making agricultural product brands. The community prefers to sell chilies and shallots directly to collectors even when the price of chilies and shallots drops. The community considers the telang plant to be a wild plant because they do not know the benefits of the telang flower. Making chili powder is done to overcome the price of chili which tends to fluctuate and extend the self-life of the chilies being harvested. The innovation in processing chili powder "Mak Chilli Tini" and "Siwang Mak Tini" onion paste has a large potential profit margin. The chili powder product "Mak Chilli Tini" and the onion paste "Siwang Mak Tini" have a lower selling price per gram than other products and PIRT certificates, so the optimism to legally compete with the broad market is high. Socialization about the benefits of telang flowers has made the people of Mantingan Village more familiar with telang flowers and are interested in planting them. Telang plants were distributed to 44 residents of Mantingan Village. This activity helps the people of Mantingan Village to solve 2 main problems, namely the fluctuating price of chilies and shallots in the market and the problem of marketing KWT commodities that have not been maximized.
