Abstrak: One obstacle of rice production is pests. Pests can be controled by spraying pesticides or utilize spiders as natural enemies. Spraying pesticides is part of conventional rice cultivation and utilization of the spider is part of an organic rice cultivation. The existence of spiders can be detected by its webs. Distribution of spider webs in conventional rice cultivation at the age 8 weeks after planting (WAP) and 10 WAP is random, while the distribution of the webs at the age 12 WAP is agregated which can be approximated by negative binomial. Distribution of spider webs in organic rice cultivation at the age 8 WAP is random while at the age 10 WAP and 12 WAP are uniform. For conventional rice cultivation at age 12 WAP, ARIMA is used to predict the number of webs on a line based on the number of the webs of preceeding lines. The best ARIMA equation obtained is ARIMA (1,0,2) with the RSME (Root Mean Squared Error) is 1.76.

Judul: Population of Plant-hoppers and Spiders in Biointensive and Conventional Rice Croping
Abstrak: Padi merupakan salah satu tanaman serelia penting yang digunakan sebagai makanan pokok sebagian besar penduduk dunia. Padi tergolong dalam tanaman pangan berupa rumput berumpun dan memiliki kemampuan beradaptasi yang tinggi pada berbagai kondisi lingkungan. Penelitian bertujuan mengetahui perbandingan populasi hama wereng dan populasi laba-laba pada pertanaman padi biointensif dan konvensional di Kampung Darim, Kecamatan Terisi, Kabupaten Indramayu, Provinsi Jawa Barat. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode pengamatan langsung dilakukan dengan menetapkan titik pengamatan secara terpilih yang mewakili bagian tengah lahan sawah dengan ukuran 10 m x 10 m. Pada setiap lahan sawah ditentukan 100 grid pengamatan, grid pengamatan berukuran 1 m2. Data diolah dan dianalisis menggunakan aplikasi Microsoft excel 2013. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa populasi wereng lebih tinggi pada lahan pertanaman padi dengan perlakuan biointensif, populasi laba-laba lebih tinggi pada lahan pertanaman padi dengan perlakuan biointensif. Spesies yang ditemukan yaitu Araneus inustus, Neoscona theisi, Atypena adelina, Pardosa pseudoannulata, Tetragnathidae sp., Oxyopes javanus, dan Harmochirus sp. Dominasi spesies yang ditemukan yaitu Atypena adelina baik pada lahan dengan perlakuan biointensif maupun konvensional. Famili yang mendominasi pada pada lahan dengan perlakuan biointensif maupun konvensional adalah Famili Araneidae., Rice is one of the important cereal crops which is used as a staple food for most of the world's population. Rice is classified as a food crop in the form of clump grass and has high adaptability to various environmental conditions. This study aims to determine the comparison of planthopper populations and spider populations in biointensive and conventional rice plantations in Darim Village, Terisi District, Indramayu Regency, West Java Province. The research method used is a direct observation method carried out by determining selected observation points that represent the middle of the rice field with a size of 10 m x 10 m. In each rice field, 100 observation grids are determined, the observation grid is 1 m2 in size. The data was processed and analyzed using the Microsoft Excel 2013 application. The results showed that the planthopper population was higher on rice plantations with biointensive treatment, the spider population was higher on rice plantations with biointensive treatment. The species found were Araneus inustus, Neoscona theisi, Atypena adelina, Pardosa pseudoannulata, Tetragnathidae sp., Oxyopes javanus, and Harmochirus sp. The dominant species found was Atypena adelina both on land with biointensive and conventional treatment. The family that dominates on land with biointensive and conventional treatment is the Araneidae family.

Judul: Sintesis dan Pencirian Kompleks Fe(III)-Kuersetin
Abstrak: Quercetin belongs to flavonols which is able to chelate metal ions. Quercetin may chelate metal ions at 3’,4’-catechol, 3- or 5-hydroxycromone sites. In this study, quercetin was complexed with Fe(III). The complex with Fe(III) ions from FeCl3·6H2O was more stable than the complex derived from Fe(NO3)3·9H2O. The quercetin was yellow in color and showed maximum wavelengths (λ􀭫􀭟􀭶) at 250 and 370 nm. The Fe(III)-quercetin complex from Fe(NO3)3·9H2O was yellowish green with 􀟣􀭫􀭟􀭶 at 280 and 420 nm, whereas that from FeCl3·6H2O was dark green with 􀟣􀭫􀭟􀭶 at 280 and 430 nm. The 􀟣􀭫􀭟􀭶 shift indicated that the complex was formed at 3-hydroxychromone site. The Fe(III)- quercetin complex was formed with 1:1 metal-ligand mole ratio based on atomic absorption spectrophotometry analysis and the X-ray diffractogram showed that the crystallinity of the complex was 37%.
