Judul: Pengaruh Cara Pengendalian Gulma Terhadap Pertumbuhan dan Produksi Kedelai (Glicine max (L.) Merr.)
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh cara pengendalian gulma, baik secara mekanis maupun secara kimia, terhadap pertumbuhan dan produksi tiga varietas kedelai, yaitu: varietas Kerinci, varietas Lokon dan varietas Amerikana. Rancangan penelitian yang digunakan yaitu rancangan petak terpisah dalam rancangan acak kelompok, dengan tiga ulangan. Sebagai petak utama yaitu varietas, terdiri atas: varietas Kerinci (V₁), varietas Lokon (V2) dan varietas Amerikana (V3). Sebagai anak petak yaitu cara pengendalian gulma, terdiri atas: tanpa penyiangan (Go), disemprot Bentazon 0.75 kg b.a./ha (G₁), disemprot Bentazon 1.50 kg b.a./ha (G2), disemprot Bentazon 3.00 kg b.a./ha (G3), disemprot Alachlor 1.44 kg b.a./ha (G4) dan disiang secara manual dua kali, yaitu pada 21 HST dan 42 HST (G5). Pe- ngolahan data dilakukan dengan menggunakan Uji Berganda Duncan, pada taraf kepercayaan 5 persen. Penyiangan gulma secara manual dua kali, yaitu pada 21 HST dan 42 HST, efektif mengendalikan gulma golongan rumput dan daun lebar; meningkatkan jumlah daun, indeks luas daun, jumlah buku subur, jumlah polong isi, indeks panen dan produksi biji kering/ha. Penyiangan secara ma- nual dua kali mampu mereduksi gangguan yang disebabkan oleh gulma, selama periode kritis tanaman. Penyiangan pertama (pada 21 HST) mampu mendukung pertumbuhan vegetatif tanaman, sedangkan penyiangan kedua (pada 42 HST) memberikan kesempatan pada tanaman untuk membentuk sekaligus mengisi polong tanpa mengalami persaingan yang berarti dengan gulma. Alachlor 1.44 kg b.a./ha tidak efektif mengendalikan gulma golongan rumput, teki maupun berdaun lebar. Walaupun demikian Alachlor mempunyai sifat merangsang pertumbuhan tanaman, sehingga mampu meningkatkan jumlah daun trifoliat, indeks luas daun, jumlah buku subur dan jumlah polong isi...

Judul: Pengaruh Jarak Tanam dan Cara Pengendalian Gulma terhadap Pertumbuhan dan Produksi Kedelai (Glycine max (L.) Merrill)
Abstrak: Percobaan dilakukan pada tanah Latosol d i kebun percobaan SEAMEO - BIOTROP, Tajur, Bogor yang berlangsung mulai bulan Pebruari 1987 sampai Mei 1987. Percobaan ini bertujuan untuk melihat pengaruh perlakuan jarak tanam dan cara pengendalian gulma terhadap pertumbuhan dan produksi kedelai. Dari penelitian ini diharapkan diperoleh suatu metode pengendalian gulma yang tepat pada berbagai jarak tanam untuk tanaman kedelai. Penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Percobaan Petak Terpisah dengan jarak tanam sebagai petak utama dan cara pengendalian gulma sebagai anak petak. Perlakuan jarak tanarn terdiri dari tiga taraf yaitu : A1 (30 cm x 10 cm), A;, (40 cm x 10 cm) dan A (40 cm x 20 cm) . Cara pengenda- 3 lian gulma terdiri dari empat taraf yaitu : Bo (tanpa pengendalian gulma), B1 (penyiangan manual dua kali, 3 MST dan 6 MST), B2 (penyemprotan alachlor dan penyiangan manual satu kali 6 MST) dan B (pen:;emprotan alachlor). Faktor perlakuan disusun secara faktorial lengkap sehingga terdapat 12 kombinasi perlakuan dengan tiga ulangan.

Judul: Characteristic of Overshooting Top (OT) Based on  Himawari  8  Satellite  as  a  Convective  Cloud  Feature  that  Generates  Extreme Weather in the Java Island Region
Abstrak: Overshooting Top (OT) is a feature at the top of a convective cloud that is associated with extreme weather. Research on OT in tropical Indonesia is still very limited. The existence of geostationary satellites with wide area coverage and fast frequency observations is useful for observing the fast dynamics of the OT life cycle. Therefore, this study intends to analyze the relationship between OT and extreme weather, updraft and thermodynamic conditions of OT when extreme weather occurs, the best objective method for detecting OT in the day time and night time, and the spatiotemporal distribution of OT in the tropical region of Java Island during the 2018-2021 period. Based on visual analysis using visible channel and Himawari 8 sandwich products, 87% of extreme weather events in Java were accompanied by the appearance of OT. It indicates that the presence of the OT pattern is a convection cloud pattern or feature that is closely related to extreme weather events for the Java Island region. The existence of a time lag between the appearance of OT and extreme weather events on Java Island indicates that the OT of convection cloud can be used as a precursor or nowcasting for the appearance of extreme weather. Most of the convective cloud OT features during extreme weather events on Java Island have altitude that were only able to exceed the altitude of the equilibrium level and few were able to exceed the tropopause level of 9 km – 16 km. The difference in atmospheric conditions during extreme weather events on Java Island, which is in the tropics and subtropics, is a strong and unstable convective energy condition characterized by a larger CAPE, as well as unstable KI, LI, SI and TTI values. It is offset by kinematic factors in the form of a weak vertical wind shear (bulk wind shear 0-6 km) and a higher freezing point height. The difference between extreme weather events in the Java Island region and other tropical regions compared to subtropical regions is the strong updraft speed of convection clouds. The IRW Texture COMB algorithm based on the IRW-Texture Gradient modification and the COMB algorithm shows a significant increase in quality for detecting OT and non-OT pixels in Java. Rainy days with rainfall > 50 mm/day are very common in areas with an altitude of > 500 m. On the other hand, the level of convection activity which is indicated by the presence of OT and lightning is significantly reduced in this area. OT of convective clouds appear more frequently during the DJF season and less frequently during the JJA season. OT often appears during the day time and rarely at night time. Most OTs appear in the central part, away from the south and north coasts of Java Island during the day, while OTs that appear near the south and north coasts of Java Island can appear in the morning or afternoon.
