Judul: Pemanfaatan Pupuk Organik Granular dari Limbah Destilasi Etanol Sorgum untuk Pembibitan Leda (Eucalyptus deglupta) pada Tanah Andosol, Latosol, dan Podzolik
Abstrak: Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L Moenc) is a plant that can be used for food, feed, and energy (ethanol). There are two types of waste in ethanol production, liquid and solid waste (baggase). Liquid waste was produced from ethanol distillation process, rich in nutrients as fertilizer, but there is still limited information about its nutritional content, especially for producing forestry seedlings. There are two types of organic fertilizer those are liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) and granular organic fertilizer (GOF). This experiment examined the effect of the GOF of Sorghum liquid waste to leda seedling growth in different soil type of Andosol, Latosol, and Podzolik, and also to find the exact dose of GOF for leda seedling growth in each type of soil. Factorial in Completely Randomized Design was used in this experiment. The result showed, that application of GOF effected to almost all the growth parameters on three soil types. Best seedling quality index (SQI) of leda was found in the combination of Andosol and 20 granules of GOF with SQI 30 points, while the SQI value of both interaction was 30 points out of 30 points.

Judul: Efektivitas Pupuk Organik Granul terhadap Pertumbuhan, Produksi dan Kadar Hara NPK Daun Jagung Manis pada Latosol Dramaga
Abstrak: Latosol fertility is generally low due to low nutrient availability and organic matter content, so addition of anorganic fertilizer only will not provide optimal production of plants. Therefore, additional of organic fertilizer must be done. The objective of this research is to study the effectiveness of granulated organic fertilizer which was combined with standard fertilizer on the growth, production, and NPK contents of sweat corn leaves in Latosol Dramaga. The field experiment was conducted in the University Farm IPB, from Februari to August 2012. The nutrient content was analyzed in the Laboratory of Soil chemistry and Fertility, Faculty of Agriculture, IPB. The design of research was completely randomized block design with single factor, that was combination of anorganic fertilizer (standard) with organic fertilizer, which consisted of 7 treatments: control, standard, 50% standard + 100% organic (0,5S+1PO), 50% standard + 150% organic (0,5S+1,5PO), 75% standard + 100% organic (0,75S+1PO), 75% standard + 150% organic (0,75S+1,5PO), and 100% standard + 100% organic (1S+1PO). The result of the research showed that the granulated organic fertilizer increased of growth, production of corn, and nutrient content of corn leaves effectively. The two treatment combinations (1S+1PO) and (0,75S+1PO) showed the best performance, which was indicated by the weight of corn with huskcover and value of RAE i.e. 15,58 t/ha and 162,07% (1S+1PO), and 13,97 t/ha and 128% (0,75S+1PO), respectively. The effect of both treatment combinations above were higher than standard treatment (12,58 t/ha and 100%).

Judul: Beberapa aspek anatomi alat sirkulasi ruang dada kancil
Abstrak: Telah dilakukan penelitian dengan menggunakan 10 ekor kancil dewasa jantan dan betina dengan tujuan untuk menge- tahui beberapa aspek anatomi alat sirkulasi di dalam ruang dada, meliputi jantung, pembuluh darah yang keluar dan ma- suk jantung serta ukuran-ukuran jantung. Kancil merupakan ruminansia terkecil di dunia, hidup di daerah tropika India, Thailand, Malaysia dan Indonesia bagian barat. Hewan ini dilindungi dan mempunyai prospek yang baik untuk hewan penelitian maupun dibudidayakan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa berat jantung rаta-rata adalah 0.69% dari berat rata-rata kancil. Dan ini mirip pada jantung kuda dan anjing. Bentuk jantung lonjong seperti halnya ruminansia. Demikian pula letaknya di dalam ruang dada seperti pada ruminansia dengan adanya Ligamentum sternopericardiacum. Di dalam ventrikel kanan membersit sebuah Musculus (M.) papillaris dari dindingnya dan tiga sampai empat Musculi (Mm.) papillares dari Septum interventriculare. Hanya dua buah Mm. papillares yang berukuran besar dibersitkan dari dinding ventrikel kiri. Percabangan Arteri (A.) coronaria sinistra lebih dominan dari pada A. coronaria dextra. Sedangkan A. sub clavia sinistra dicabangkan langsung dari aorta di dorso- caudal pembersitan Truncus (Tr.) brachiocephalicus…
