The basic rate of a hospital is a benchmark for the sustainability of a hospital in providing services to hospital patients. Determining rates in a hospital requires a lot of consideration, many factors that become variables to be taken into account. This study aims to determine a method of determining rates that are in accordance with the needs of the hospital. This study is a descriptive study of the assessment of previous studies compared to the double distribution method. Most studies state that the ABC method is appropriate for determining hospital rates because it calculates rates based on activities in the hospital. However, with the double distribution method, it applies two stages to determine prices from work units that do not have income to the second stage, namely service units. So that the cost burden will end up in the service unit. Basically, the determination of the calculation method needs to be adjusted to the complexity of the hospital itself, because the application of costs in each has differences from one another.

Until now, Indonesia is still a world exporter of essential oils, including citronella oil. So that the role of farming communities in the development of Indonesia's essential oil industry is very helpful. For this reason, a study was carried out on response of fertilization and harvest interval on the intensity of leaf spot diseases of citronella grass, and productivity in ultisols soil which was carried out from October 2020 to September 2022. The experiment was arranged in a randomized block design in factorial with 9 treatments, as the first factor is 3 levels of an organic fertilizer (NPK); P1 = 25 g clumps −1, P2 = 37.5 g clumps −1 and P3 = 50 g clumps −1. The second factor is the harvest interval with three levels which is 4 = harvest interval once every 4 months, 3 = harvest interval every 3 months and 2 = harvest interval once every 2 months, repeated three times. Each treatment plot consisted of 24 clumps with a plant spacing of 1 × 1 × 1 m. Varieties used is Serai wangi 1. Parameters observed were intensity of leaf spot diseases, vegetative growth, livestock production, oil production, quality analysis and R/C ratio. The results showed that there was an effect of fertilizer doses and harvest intervals on the development of leaf spot disease. It was seen that at the application of fertilizer doses of 37.5 g clumps −1 with harvest intervals once every three months showed the lowest disease attacks, namely on Cuvularia sp and Pestalotia sp (5.98%, 5.42% and 7.98 %, 7.44 %). In addition, the development of vegetative growth is also influenced by the application of fertilizer doses and harvest intervals on the parameters of canopy width, plant height, leaf length, leaf width and number of tillers. The best fertilizer dose is 37.50 g clump −1 successively (175.40 cm, 172.29 cm, 113.62 cm, 2.36 cm and 119.59 stems), with harvest intervals every 3 months (179.40 cm, 187.29 cm, 119.44 cm, 2.45 cm and 120.00 stems), as well as fresh leaves production tons/ha/year and oil production kg/ha/year the best is the application of fertilizer doses of 37.50 g clumps−1 with harvest intervals once every 3 months (67.81 tons−ha-year and 578.61 kg−ha- year,with, 67.40 tons–ha-th and 517.60 kg–ha-th). For oil quality, numerically, the application of fertilizer at a dose of 37.50 g of clump −1 with harvest intervals every 3 months is still high. The proper R/C ratio for farming occurs in the 2 nd year by administering a fertilizer dose of 37.50 g clump−1 and harvesting intervals once every 3 months with an increase of 116.67%. So, the citronella grass variety Serai wangi 1 can be developed on ultisol soil types by applying an organic fertilizer (NPK).

Antifungal effectiveness of several essential oil botanical pesticides and their mixtures against the fungus Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cubense (Foc) which causes fusarium wilt disease of banana plants in vitro, was conducted from March to July 2023. The aim of the study was to obtain an effective botanical pesticide formulation and the right concentration for controlling the Foc causing Fusarium wilt disease in banana plants. The study was arranged in a completely randomized design in factorials with three replications. The experiment was carried out using two methods: a) Suppressing colony diameter using Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) medium, b). Suppressing colony biomass using Potato Dextrose Broth (PDB) medium. The treatment was the formulation of essential oil (F) botanical pesticides as the first factor; F1 (Cymbopogon flexuosus oils), F2 (C. nardus essential oils), F3 (Eugenia aromatica leaf essential oils), F4 (Cinnamomum burmanii leaf oils), F5 (F1+F2), F6 (F1+F3), F7 (F1+F4) and F8 (F2 +F3), F9 (F2+F4) and F10 (F3+F4) The level of concentration (C) as a second factor C1(1000 ppm) and C2(2000 ppm). The results showed that the F3 (E. aromatica leaf oils) treatment had the best antifungal activity against Foc. At a concentration of 2000 ppm inhibition of the diameter growth and colony biomass reached 100%, followed by the F1 treatment (C. flexuosus oils) up to 89.73% and 95.75%, the F2 treatment (C. nardus oils) reach 84.58% and 89.67% and the lowest antifungal activity is F4 (C. burmanii leaf oils) which only 77.08% and 84.50%. The best mixed formulations were F5(F1+ F3) and F8(F2 + F3), at the same concentration suppression of colony growth reaching 100%. In general, mixed essential oils formulation have shown to increase the effectiveness of the antifungal activities.

Spinach and kale are popular vegetables in Indonesia. Spinach and kale production in Indonesia in 2021 will be 341,196 tonnes and 171,706 tonnes respectively. Farmers generally use insecticides to maintain the quality and quantity of vegetable production. The main problem with inappropriate use of insecticides is that there are residues in vegetable products. An interval between the last application and harvest time that is too short can cause high insecticide residues on agricultural products. The aim of this research is to analyze residue data for several active insecticide ingredients used on spinach and kale. The research carried out included field tests using pesticide formulations containing the active ingredients deltamethrin, profenofos, imidacloprid, chlorantraniliprole and carbofuran. Next, the residues of several active ingredients will be analyzed in the GIS Laboratory using GC. Data from residue analysis of several active ingredients will be compared with the maximum residue limits in National Standardization agency of Indonesia. The results obtained were residues of profenofos, imidacloprid and deltamethrin in spinach plants below MRL. Meanwhile, the residues of profenofos, imidacloprid and deltamethrin in kale were above the BMR. The profenofos residue in water spinach is 3.6546 mg/kg above the BMR 1 mg/kg based on BSN, the imidacloprid residue is 0.5195 mg/kg above the BMR 0.5 mg/kg based on the BSN and the deltamethrin residue is 0.9084 mg/kg above the BMR 0, 5 mg/kg based on BSN. Meanwhile, the active ingredients chlorantraniliprole and carbofuran were not detected. This is influenced by spraying frequency and climatic conditions. Apart from that, spraying intervals of 3 hsp and 7 hsp also affect residues on spinach and kale plants. The closer the spraying time to harvest time will affect the residue level in the plant. The physical and chemical properties that cause degradation of the active insecticide ingredient influence the reduction in residue.

This study aims to obtain a formulation of the botanical pesticide P aduncum with additives and the right type of solvent. The research was arranged in a completely randomized design in factorial, the first factor being essential oil additives; citronellagrass oils (Andropogon nardus), lemongrass oils (Cimbopogon flexiosus), Ceylon cinnamon leaf oils (Cinnamomum zeylanicum), Padang cinnamon leaf oils (Cinnamomum burmanii), clove leaf oils (Eugenia aromatica) and wild ginger leaf oils (Elettariopsis slahmong), both types of solvent (ethanol, methanol and turpentine). The experiment was carried out at the Laing Solok IPPTP parasitology laboratory. The results showed that all additive materials had a positive effect in increasing the antifungal activity of the botanical pesticide P aduncum essential oil with different effectiveness against the test fungi. Citronella oil showed the highest antifungal effectiveness compared to other additives, especially against S. rolfsii and Pestalotia sp, with diameter and biomass inhibition of fungal colonies tested S rolfsii 92.15% and 92.70%, Pestalotia sp 84.82% and 86,34% and F. oxysporum 43.87 and 47.17%. All solvents can be used for the formulation of the botanical pesticide P aduncum, ethanol solvent is better than methanol and turpentine with the highest inhibition capacity of the diameter and biomass of the fungus colonies tested S rolfsii 91.28% and 92.05%, Pestalotia sp 83.56% and 86.02% and for F. oxysporum 40.31 and 48.36%, respectively.

Induced mutagenesis is one of the most widely used breeding methods for rapidly increasing genetic diversity in many crops. This study used gamma radiation and diethyl sulfate (DES) to increase the genetic diversity in two faba bean genotypes. The genetic diversity assessment was based on 12 qualitative traits. The purpose of this study was to assess the genetic diversity in the M2 faba bean mutant populations and to select promising mutant. A total of 5271 M2 seeds generated from the M1 generation of two genotypes—Hassawi 2 and ILB4347—were used in this study. The seeds of M1 were obtained by gamma-ray exposure (25 and 50 Gy) and treatment of 0.01, 0.02, and 0.05% DES. A total of 4333 (82.2%) seeds germinated, of which 4102 plants survived and were screened for morphological diversity. A total of 36 mutant types are presented in this study. Determinate plant type, white flower color, white hilum, and black seed coat color were some of desirable traits that were considered for further generations. Multivariate-based principal component analyses showed that high genetic diversity was induced by gamma radiation and DES in faba bean mutant populations. This study revealed the potency of gamma radiation and DES on increasing genetic diversity and demonstrated the successful program of induced mutagenesis in the faba bean.

The genotype–environment interaction causes difficulties in selecting stable and ideal soybean cultivars across crop rotation models. Thus, this study aimed to provide the best estimates of soybean yields in every crop rotation model for recommendations in the rainfed agroforestry system using GGE biplot and EBLUP. In this study, the productivity and stability of 15 soybean cultivars were evaluated using four crop rotation models, that is, soybean planting after fallow (F–S), soybean planting after maize (M–S), soybean planting after rice (R–S), and continuous soybean (S–S) in dry and wet seasons at Menggoran Forest Resort, Playen District, Gunungkidul Regency, Special Province of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Results in the dry season revealed that the Dering I cultivar had the highest yield in F–S and R–S of 1.267 and 1.375 tons ha−1 and the Grobogan cultivar in M–S and S–S of 1.200 and 1.349 tons ha−1, respectively. During the wet season, the Grobogan cultivar showed the highest yields in F–S, M–S, and S–S of 2.187, 2.435, and 2.247 tons ha−1, and the Dega I cultivar in R–S of 2.049 tons ha−1. Based on the GGE biplot and Shukla model, Dering I and Grobogan cultivars were classified as fairly and relatively stable in dry and wet seasons. The cultivars that are well suited to the environment can maximize the yield potential of these cultivars and help to build a sustainable production system.

Indonesia is one of the countries that is categorized as a disaster-prone country. BNPB noted an increase in the number of disasters in Indonesia in the last 10 years, including earthquakes, volcanic eruptions to tidal waves and abrasion. West Sulawesi is one of the provinces prone to disasters, one of which is in Mirring Village, Polewali Mandar. Mirring Village is a coastal area that is prone to coastal abrasion and tidal waves, therefore the area is planted with mangroves to withstand tidal waves from the sea. Unfortunately, the people of Mirring village did not understand the function of the mangrove until finally Rumah Zakat through Relawan Inspirasi came to provide education regarding the use of mangroves, disaster mitigation to become a disaster-resilient family and an economically resilient family. This research is a descriptive study using a qualitative approach. The data collected with interview with 17 respondents. The results show that the community welcomes the community empowerment program towards a disaster-resilient village by Rumah Zakat. The community has understood the function of mangroves and participated in disaster training to become disaster-resilient families. The community also initiated the existence of crab ponds and mangrove cultivation which later could become their source of income and form an economically resilient family.

Low prices of rubber has been a serious problem to rubber growers in Indonesia. Rubber-based intercropping systems offers a practical solution to this issue and increasing overall productivity, for example by growing upland rice and maize between the rubber tree rows. This study was aimed to determine the suitable spacing in rubber planting to facilitate long-term rubber-based intercropping systems. A field experiment was established in a smallholder rubber plantation in the Tanah Laut Regency, South Kalimantan with area of 50 ha. Two planting patterns of rubber clone PB260 were tested: (1) single row planting pattern (SR) by 6 m x 3 m, and (2) double row planting pattern (DR) by 18 m x 2 m x 2.5 m. The experiment showed that the girth of the rubber trees with the SR system at the 1st tapping year was slightly larger than that in the DR system, even though statistically it was not signifi cant. The latex yield per tree of SR and DR systems were similar, however, latex yield per hectare of SR system was higher than the DR system due to a higher tree population in the SR system. The DR system was technically suitable for long term intercropping, because when the rubber tree reached 8 to 9-year-old, the light penetration was > 80% at distance of about 4 m from the rubber tree rows. Economically, DR system can increase the added values for rubber farmers because it allows long term intercropping. Rubber-based intercropping with DR system is suitable to be applied, especially by smallholders, with a marginal benefi t cost ratio of around 2.07.

Genetic diversity enrichment is urgently necessary to develop climate-resilient faba bean cultivars. The present study aimed to measure the enrichment of genetic diversity and changes in the population structure of faba bean, following induced mutagenesis. 120 samples, including 116 M2 mutant plants, generated by exposing the ILB4347 accession to four mutagen treatments (25 and 50 Gray gamma radiation and 0.01%, and 0.05% diethyl sulfate) and four reference genotypes were characterized using 11 amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) primer combinations. The AFLP markers generated 1687 polymorphic alleles, including 756 alleles (45%) that were detected infrequently (f ≤ 0.1). The total allele count of the mutant plants ranged from 117 to 545. We observed a wide range of banding patterns and counts among the mutant plants, showing the high genetic diversity induced by mutation. Mutations also changed the population structure, by altering 31.78% of the total membership coefficient (Q). Although mutations changed the population structure, Nei’s genetic distance showed that the mutant population remained closely related to its control parent. This is the first report examining genetic diversity and population changes in faba bean mutant populations and, thus, could facilitate the application of induced mutagenesis during faba bean breeding.

Bacterial wilt disease (Rasltonia solanacearum) is an important constraint for patchouli plant. Formulated Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf19 could induce patchouli plant resistance against R. solanacearum. The aims of the present study were to find the optimal dose and application interval of formulated P. fluorescens Pf19 in order to control R. solanacearum effectively and efficiently, as well as promoting the growth and productivity of the patchouli plant. The results of effectivity test of doses (75 g L-1 and 100 g L-1) and application time intervals (every 30; 60; 90 and 120 days) showed that formulation of P. fluorescens Pf19 controlled bacterial wilt disease and increased patchouli plant growth and production on patchouli plant in field. Doses of 100 g L-1 and application time of every 30 and 60 days had highest activity and effectivity to control bacterial wilt diseases and increase plant growth and production of patchouli plant. Incubation period was 88.0–93.5 days after planting, and disease intensity was 16.50–24.12%. The same treatments may increase the growth of patchouli plant, i.e. plant height were 59.0–68.5 cm, total number of leaves were 417.5–510.0 leaves per plant, wet weight of leaves were 234.55–263.45 g per plot and dry weight of leaves were 25.32–29.28 g per plot.

Background: Faba bean is one of the most important feed grain legume crops in the world. However, this crop is a recalcitrant species for in vitro regeneration. Methods: In this study, in vitro shoot proliferation of ten faba bean genotypes, that are classified according to their seed size into small, medium and large, were investigated in response to different light regimes and thidiazuron (TDZ) treatments. Result: Incubation under different light regimes, explant type as well as genotypes influenced seedling growth and axillary shoot multiplication of faba bean. The explants with single cotyledon and incubated under continuous darkness for 6 days resulted higher number of shoot than nodal explants. Medium size seeded genotype (ILB4347) produced the highest shoot and root length and shoot proliferation as compared with large (Luz) or small (Triple White) seeded genotypes. The effects of TDZ concentrations (2-10 M/L) and exposure duration (10 and 20 days) on axillary shoot multiplication were investigated for the ten faba bean using cotyledonary explants. The overall mean of TDZ time exposure showed that treatment of 20 days exposure had higher number of shoot compare to 10 days exposure treatment with 3.77 shoot per explant. On the basis of genotype used, the three most responsive genotype in tissue culture were medium sized seeds genotypes (ILB4347, Hassawi 2 and Misr 3 with 4.76, 4.40 and 4.15 shoot per explant, respectively). ILB4347 were the most responsive genotype in tissue culture. Treatment of 8 M TDZ after 20 days followed by 2 weeks on MS medium without PGRs generated the highest proliferation with 6.63 shoot per explant. These findings contribute towards effective in vitro propagation of faba bean. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Electricity demand in Indonesia is currently increasing along with population growth, economic growth, and development. This increase can lead to an energy crisis if it is not accompanied by the provision of additional power plants. This study aims to analyze the micro-hydro potential located at Bangkong Waterfall, Kuningan Regency. The research uses a quantitative approach that begins with field surveys and data collection from relevant agencies. Next, the dependable discharge analysis uses the Thiessen polygon method based on rainfall data and watershed area, as well as flow discharge analysis using the rational method. The results of calculations using the Thiessen polygon method and the rational method yield Q80 with a minimum discharge of 0.009 m³/d and a maximum discharge of 1.160 m³/d. For direct discharge analysis, the Float method is used to calibrate the calculation results with field conditions. The direct discharge analysis using the Float method yields 0.32 m³/d. Based on the efficiency considerations of the micro-hydro power plant (MHPP) components such as a head of 20 meters, turbine type efficiency, water density, gravity factor, and flow discharge in the pipe of 0.109 m³/d, the potential power that can be generated at the Bangkong Waterfall micro-hydro power plant is 16,097.23 Watts or 16.097 Kilowatts.

This research aimed to explore the challenges of the COVID‐19 vaccination program from the perspective of multiple stakeholders in rural areas of eastern Indonesia. This qualitative participatory action research involved 115 participants selected from various groups in 20 subdistricts across five provinces, including Health Service workers, police staff monitoring the vaccination program, religious figures, and adult and youth community leaders. Furthermore, focus group discussion was conducted using semi‐structured interview guidelines based on the WHO Strategic Advisory Group of Experts (SAGE) for vaccine and immunization model. The manifest content approach was employed to analyze the visible contents within the text. Implementation of the vaccination program was complicated by contextual, individual, and group factors, as well as vaccine and vaccination‐specific factors. The contextual factors were socioeconomic, religious, and cultural conditions, changes in government policies, and geographical and climatic obstacles. Meanwhile, examples of group and individual factors were people's beliefs of COVID‐19 being harmless and their invulnerability to the disease, along with misinformation and disinformation about vaccination, and fatalistic attitudes. Factors related to the vaccine and vaccination process include limited vaccine supplies, inadequate supporting facilities, and insufficient administration of vaccines. Multiple and complex challenges of COVID‐19 vaccination in the rural areas of eastern Indonesia need attention from the local and national government, as well as other parties including the private sector, socio‐religious figures and organizations, and the media. Key Points: This study involved participants from government and nongovernment elements, young and adult age groups, as well as health and nonhealth actors to explore challenges of the COVID‐19 vaccination program in Eastern Indonesia.The results showed that the low COVID‐19 vaccination coverage cannot be attributed to a single factor, as multiple complex and context‐specific factors are at play.Health and nonhealth sectors, as well as governmental and nongovernmental actors with their respective roles can be involved in supporting the COVID‐19 vaccination and other vaccination programs.
