Abstrak: Studi pemanfaatan residu proses ekstraksi bahan humat terhadap pertumbuhan tanaman jagung dipelajari pada dua jenis bahan tanah yang berbeda yaitu Latosol Dramaga dan Podsolik Jasinga. Percobaan pot dilakukan di lahan belakang Laboratorium Pengembangan Sumberdaya Fisik Lahan, Institut Pertanian Bogor. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh residu proses ekstraksi bahan humat dan kapur terhadap pertumbuhan tanaman jagung pada bahan tanah Latosol dan Podsolik. Rancangan acak lengkap faktorial digunakan pada percobaan pot, yang terdiri dari 2 faktor yaitu residu proses ekstraksi bahan humat dengan 3 taraf dan kapur dengan 2 taraf. Seluruh perlakuan diberi pupuk dasar dengan dosis yang sama yaitu 300 ppm N, 200 ppm P, dan 200 ppm K pada masing-masing bahan tanah. Pengamatan dilakukan selama 4 minggu dengan parameter pertumbuhan vegetatif tanaman jagung yang terdiri dari tinggi tanaman, lebar daun, dan jumlah daun. Pada saat pemanenan biomassa dilakukan pengukuran bobot kering batang dan daun, serta bobot kering akar tanaman. Data diolah dengan software SAS 9.4 dan uji DMRT pada taraf nyata 5%. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada bahan tanah Latosol, pemberian residu tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap tinggi tanaman, lebar daun, jumlah daun, bobot kering batang dan daun, dan bobot kering akar tanaman. Sementara itu, pada bahan tanah Podsolik pemberian residu menurunkan tinggi tanaman, lebar daun, dan bobot kering batang dan daun tanaman jagung. Pemberian kapur pada bahan tanah Latosol tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap tinggi tanaman, jumlah daun dan bobot kering akar tanaman jagung, sedangkan pada bahan tanah Podsolik pemberian kapur berpengaruh nyata terhadap tinggi, lebar daun, jumlah daun, bobot kering batang dan daun, dan bobot kering akar tanaman jagung.

Judul: Aplikasi Bahan Humat dengan Carrier Zeolit untuk Meningkatkan Produksi Tanaman Jagung (Zea mays) pada Latosol Bogor.
Abstrak: Indonesia is one of wet-tropical countries having high temperature and rainfall so that leaching in soil is very intensive. This condition makes nutritions in the soil decrease significantly and declining crop production. Many efforts have been done for increasing food crop production without damaging soil characteristics and causing environmental pollution such as application of chemical fertilizer with accurate dossage accompanied by addition of organic fertilizer. However, soil need organic fertilizer in large amount for improving soil characteristics and increase food crop production. Humic substance which is extracted from organic matter can substitute organic fertilizer. Generally, humic substance is applied in liquid form with a small amount, therefore it need a carrier to make the application easy and the humic substance is not easily leached. Zeolite that has porous structure is material potential to be used as carrier of humic substance. Application of humic substance with zeolite as carrier is expected to increase production of food crop such as corn. This experiment consists of field experiment that was conducted in agricultural land at Sindangbarang District, Bogor City, green house experiment that was conducted in University Farm IPB, and soil and plant analysis in chemist and soil fertility, Laboratory of the Department of Soil Science and Land Resources, Faculty of Agriculture, Bogor Agricultural University. Field experiment is arranged in a randomized block design 2 factorial with 2 replications. Treatment is consist of 1 control, 3 humic substance treatment (A5, A10, and A15), 2 zeolite treatment (Z10, and Z20), and 6 combination humic substance and zeolite treatment (A5Z10, A10Z10, A15Z10, A5Z20, A10Z20, and A15Z20). The results showed that application of humic substance with zeolite as carrier gave a better effect for increasing corn production than application of humic substance or zeolite itself. Humic substance with zeolite as carrier can increase P-available and CEC of soil. Moreover, humic substance with zeolite as carrier increased nitrogen level in corn leaf. The growth of corn increased with the increase of root weight and plant height. The optimum and profitable dosage of humic substance with zeolite as carrier was 10 liters humic substance/ha with 20 kg zeolite as carrier/liter humic substance because it showed the biggest increase corn production or 19% increase than plants without application of humic substance with zeolite as carrier and gave profit up to Rp 1.212.000,00/ha per planting season. This dosage can be recommend by farmer.

Abstrak: Researches on voice signals have been carried out using various signal processing methods, one of them known as Mel Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients (MFCC) which is based on Fourier transformation. MFCC as feature extraction combined with Artifical Neural Network (ANN) as classifier has been shown to have a very good accuracy. Based on previous research, this research is conducted with more complicated cases with the various medical conditions of the speaker. Bad medical conditions, such as cold, is a factor that can affect the human voice, making it more complicated to recognize using signal processing methods. From this research, it can be concluded that the use of MFCC method as the feature extraction combined with ANN as the classifier proved to have a good capability to recognize words from speakers with bad medical conditions. The accuracy that has been obtained is 99% using backpropagation neural network with 50 hidden neurons and using the Traingdx training methods.
