Published: January 2023

Araştırmanın amacı core kuvvet antrenman (CKA) modelinin işitme engelli bireylerin denge ve fiziksel performansları üzerine etkilerini incelemektir. Araştırmaya 30 işitme engelli öğrenci katıldı. Katılımcılar, egzersiz grubu (EG: 15; 4 kadın 11 erkek; yaş: 19,60±1,96) ve kontrol grubu (KG: 15, 4 kadın 11 erkek; yaş: 19,73±1,03) olarak rastgele iki gruba ayrıldı. EG’ye dört haftalık (haftada 5 gün) CKA programı uygulandı. KG’deki katılımcılar sadece günlük yaşamlarına devam ettiler. Tüm katılımcılara antrenman uygulaması başında ve sonunda boy uzunluğu, vücut ağırlığı, denge, esneklik, sağ-sol el kavrama kuvveti, dikey sıçrama, durarak uzun atlama, şınav ve mekik testleri uygulandı. Grup içi ve gruplar arası farkları karşılaştırmak için 2x2 mixed faktör ANOVA kullanıldı. Dört haftalık CKA programı sonrası EG’de esneklik, sağ-sol el kavrama kuvveti, durarak uzun atlama, dikey sıçrama, şınav ve mekik testi değişkenlerinde anlamlı gelişim görüldü (p<0,05). KG’de ise sadece sol el kavrama kuvveti ve mekik değişkenlerinde anlamlı değişim oldu (p<0,05). EG ve KG’nin ön-son testleri arasındaki ortalama farklar karşılaştırıldığında esneklik, sağ el kavrama, dikey sıçrama ve şınav parametrelerinde EG lehine anlamlı farklılık görüldü (p<0,05). Ayrıca denge yeteneği EG’de %12,73 gelişim gösterirken KG’de %9,37 gerileme gösterdi. Sonuç olarak CKA modeli, işitme engelli bireylerde denge ve fiziksel performans parametrelerinin gelişiminde etkili olduğu söylenebilir. Bu sonucun core bölgesindeki kasların kuvvet artışıyla meydana geldiği düşünülmektedir. İşitme engellilerin egzersiz programlarına CKA’nın da dahil edilmesi önerilmektedir.

Authors: AKTÜRK Eyüp
Published: January 2023

Son dönemlerde okulun değerleri ve ethosu hakkında çok daha fazla konuşulmaktadır. Ethos, değerler kümesine ve bir okulun karakteristiği olan tutum ve davranışlarına atıfta bulunur. Bir okulun ethosu, insanları makul ve/veya kabul edilebilir bir şekilde düşünmeye ve davranmaya koşullandırmak için belirli bir miktarda güce sahiptir. İnsanları belirli bir şekilde davranmaya yönlendiren okul ethosu, doğru ve uygun olduğuna inanılan değerlere bağlı kalmanın yollarından biridir. O halde eğitim sorunlarına ilişkin bir tartışma okul ethosuna ilişkin tartışmalardan bağımsız değildir. Bu çalışmada, okul ethosunun yeniden düşünülmesi gerektiğine yönelik güçlü bir vurgu söz konusudur. Diğer taraftan okulun etik bağlamı ile bireylerin etik karar verme ve eylemde bulunma biçimleri arasında da sıkı bir ilişki söz konusudur. Bu zorunlu ilişkiden hareketle eğitim sürecindeki bütün üyelerin, bireyler üzerindeki örgütsel etik bağlamın önemini daha iyi anlamaları; etik karar verme adımlarının etik bir bağlam tarafından nasıl geliştirileceğini analiz etmeleri son derece önemlidir. Çünkü araştırmalar etik bağlamın gerçekten de etik muhakemenin çeşitli bileşenlerini etkilediğini ortaya koymaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, (i) okul ethosunun kişinin ahlaki karakteri üzerindeki etkilerini irdelemek ve (ii) örgütsel etik bağlam ile bireysel etik karar verme süreci arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmaktır. Öyleyse etik çalışma ortamının bireysel etik karar verme ve etik davranma süreçleri üzerinde ne tür bir etkisinin olabileceğini irdelemek bu çalışma açısından kritik bir öneme sahiptir.
İSLAM BORÇLAR HUKUKUNDA SATIŞ KONUSUNUN MADDİ OLARAK VAR OLMASI ŞARTINA DAİR BİR DEĞERLENDİRME
Authors: ASLAN Mehmet Selim
Published: January 2023

Fıkıhta muâmelâtın temelini oluşturan satış akdi temlike yönelik, bağlayıcı ve ivazlı bir sözleşmedir. Satış akdinin hukuken geçerli bir şekilde kurulması için mahallü’l-akd olarak ifade edilen akit konusunun malum, teslim edilebilir ve meşru olmasıyla birlikte “mevcut” olması gerekmektedir. Klasik dönem fakihleri, “Yanında bulunmayan şeyi satma.” hadisinden hareketle akde mahall olan malın akit kurulurken maddi olarak var olması gerektiğini savunmuşlardır. O günün ticarî hayat şartlarına bakıldığında hadisin altında yatan gerekçe, akit konusu malın mevcut olmaması değil, temin edilip edilmemesinin belirsiz olmasıdır. Öyleyse akit yapılırken varlığı bulunmayıp ancak ileride elde edilmesi kesin olan şeyler, örneğin tükenmiş bir fabrika malının satılması ve daha sonra üretilerek alıcıya teslim edilmesi mümkün olan şeyler henüz vücut bulmadan günümüz şartlarında mevcut kapsamında değerlendirilebilir ve satış konusu yapılabilir. Bu nedenle klasik dönemde akit yapılırken varlığı bulunan şeklinde açıklanan “mevcut” kavramı, günümüz şartlarında gelecekte var olacağı kesin olan şeyleri de içerecek tarzda daha kapsamlı bir kavram olarak kabul edilebilir. Çalışmada “mevcud”un "mahiyeti ve kapsamıyla ilgili klasik dönem fakihleri ve çağdaş İslam hukukçularının görüşlerini ortaya koymayı ve kavramı günümüz ticarî hayatın şartları çerçevesinde incelemeyi amaç edindik.

Pregnant patients experience various changes, both physically and psychologically. With these changes, pregnant patients are expected to be able to keep themselves healthy for the sake of smooth delivery. In the hospital, a spiritual guide provides psychological services, guides in performing prayers, and helps find solutions to the problems faced by patients. This service is very important as an effort to accelerate the patient's recovery, so a spiritual guide must be competent in his field.The ministry of a spiritual director has a very important role in the patient's recovery. In the communication process, including counseling relationships, there are two elements to body language. Therapeutic communication is communication that is planned and carried out to assist the healing or recovery of the patient. This communication is generally more intimate because it has a purpose,  and focuses on the patient who needs help. when conducting Islamic guidance and counseling several methods and techniques can be developed, namely Ersyad Nafsiyah, Ersyad Fardhiyah, and Ersyad Fiah Qolilah. All methods and Islamic counseling guidance are delivered in the form of brief focused counseling, namely counseling in hospitals carried out by counselors in a brief manner. Communication that is more effectively used by spiritual guides is therapeutic. Therapeutic is an adjective associated with the art of healing. Therapeutic communication is communication that is planned and carried out to help the healing or recovery of the patient. This communication is generally more intimate because it has a purpose, focusing on patients who need help. spiritual guides actively listen and respond to patients by showing an attitude of acceptance and understanding so that they can encourage patients to talk openly about themselves. Besides that, it can also help patients to see and pay attention to what they were not aware of before.

Published: January 2023

Da'wah media is important as a message transmission that facilitates the delivery of da'wah messages in the form of good values. One of the print media that is used as a propaganda medium is novel. The novel Kambing dan Hujan written by Mahfud Ikhwan carries the theme of socio-religious life which is full of da'wah messages. The novel Kambing dan Hujan has two major premises in its story, the romance and upheaval of two people who in the story represent the horizontal conflict of two major Islamic organizational entities in Indonesia, Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and Muhammadiyah. In addition to representing the conflict between the two largest Islamic organizations in Indonesia, the novel also represents ukhuwah islamiyah as a way out of the conflict. Through the study of the sociology of literature, it will examine and describe the representation of the message of brotherhood Islamiyah in the novel. This research is a type of library research, the method in this research is qualitative research. The results of the discussion show that in the novel there are three representations of the message of ukhuwah Islamiyah: 1) Ukhuwwah fi din Al-Islam, a brotherhood among Muslims. 2) Ukhuwwah fi Al-'ubudiyyah which is the brotherhood of all creatures in the sense of equality, namely equality in creation and submission to Allah. 3) Ukhuwwah fi Al-wathaniyah wa Nasab which is a brotherhood that is intertwined in descent and also of the same nationality.

The preparation of targets and messages is carried out by the management and members before carrying out the activity program by holding face-to-face meetings, the media used by GP Ansor include Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, and Instagram. However, of the media that has the most influence is Facebook. Then, the theory of consciousness found in this study is the theory of Zeman which divides it into 3 main points of consciousness, namely, a) awareness in a waking state, namely the desire of the community to interact and communicate more broadly through GP Ansor, b) awareness as an experience, namely the desire of the community. participate and become part of the organization at this time, c) awareness as a mind, namely the hopes and beliefs of the community to participate in joining the GP Ansor Ranting Pagubugan Kulon organization.
Performance Comparison of Crossflow Turbine Configuration Upper Blade Convex and Curvature by Computational Method
Authors: Adanta Dendy , Sari Dewi Puspita , Syofii Imam , Prakoso Aji Putro , Saputra Muhammad Amsal Ade , Thamrin Ismail
Published: January 2023

A pico-hydro-type crossflow turbine (CFT) with an off-grid system configuration is a suitable option to increase the electrification ratio in remote or rural areas because it has a simple shape and can be applied in run-of-river conditions. Yet, a comprehensive study is necessary for the CFT to be applied to run-of-river conditions (low head and extreme fluctuation discharge), since this is categorized as an impulse turbine. One solution to optimize the CFT’s performance in this context is to increase the lift force. Hence, this study investigated the effect of the upper blade of the CFT with convex and curved configurations using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The CFD transient approach uses a moving mesh feature, and the solver is pressure-based in low-head conditions (5 m pressure). The CFD results and analysis of variance (ANOVA) calculation results from this study reveal that the upper CFT affects the performance of the turbine. The relationship of the CFT performance with the rotation and specific speed is parabolic. The express empirical law relation for performance to rotation is a four-order polynomial, and for performance to a specific speed, a three-order polynomial. Based on empirical laws, a CFT with a convex blade is recommended for conditions with low head and extreme fluctuation discharge since it has a wider range of specific speeds than a curved blade, propeller, or Kaplan, Pelton, or Francis turbine. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-012 Full Text: PDF

Published: January 2023

River flow assessments and ecologically sustainable water management plans are now possible due to the advancement of sophisticated computer models. The US Army Corps of Engineers developed the HEC-HMS model, which can be used for various hydrological simulations. Rainfall-runoff modeling aids in estimating peak flows, which is critical for water resource management planning. On December 18, 2017, a heavy rainfall event in the ungauged Irawan basin in Puerto Princesa City, Palawan, Philippines, was simulated to determine the peak flow and amount of water. The current research aims to construct a rainfall-runoff simulation model. A specific hyetograph is used to make the hydrographs for the basin. This study utilizes ArcGIS and QGIS, which perform the geospatial analysis and provide the HEC-HMS model's hydrologic modeling inputs. The hydrological parameters were determined using soil type, land use, and land cover maps. Incorporating SCS loss, Clark unit hydrograph, and Muskingum flow routing, HEC-HMS was employed in the rainfall-runoff simulation. Rainfall data corresponding to the recorded streamflow was used to calibrate and validate the parameters. Several performance metrics, including Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) and Percentage Bias (PBIAS), were utilized to evaluate the overall effectiveness of the system. An effective decision-making and warning system can be implemented using the developed model. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-017 Full Text: PDF

Authors: Bachrun Ratna , Santi . , Baskara Surya
Published: January 2023

Knowing the characteristics of wastewater and its interaction with the channel is crucial to finding a suitable model and maintenance method to solve the closed channel problem. The purpose of this study is to find the relationship and how much it influences the characteristics of wastewater in closed channels and analyze the limit deposit velocity (LDV) of wastewater so that there is no deposition. The parameters used to analyze wastewater characteristics are density, oil and fat, specific gravity, total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, and kinematic viscosity. The parameters used to analyze the flow characteristics in closed channels are velocity, discharge, Reynolds number, friction coefficient, energy loss, and hydraulic gradient. The method used is experimental research by simulating a closed-channel model prototype. The closed channel model is made from an acrylic pipe with a length of 6 m and a pipe diameter of 0.064 m. Simulations on each wastewater sample and the discharge variations used were 0.005, 0.004, 0.003, and 0.0015 m3/s. Velocity measurements at a 0.5 pipe water level height and distances of 0, 2, 4, and 6 m. The results showed that the nature and composition of the wastewater the flow velocity. The large value of wastewater parameters shows that the flow velocity is small. The wastewater content is considered a load that must be transported to the end of the closed channel. When the discharge increases, the velocity will increase, Reynolds number will increase, and the energy loss will be large, while the friction coefficient is inversely proportional to Reynolds number. The velocities of clean water samples are 2.90 - 1.07 m/s, tofu - making is 2.83 - 1.07 m/s, household is 2.74 - 0.85 m/s, laundry is 2.84 - 1.03 m/s, and the workshop is 2.54 - 0.66 m/s. The limit deposit velocity (LDV) for household wastewater is 1.49 m/s to prevent deposition in closed channels. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-03 Full Text: PDF

Authors: Sutarno Mohd Syeddre , Mohamad Habib Musa
Published: January 2023

Peat soil was defined as the highly organic surface layer derived primarily from plant remains. Peat, on the other hand, was the subsurface of wetland systems, consisting of unconsolidated superficial layers with a high non-crystalline colloid (humus) content. Peat soils have a low shear strength of 5 to 20 kPa, a high compressibility of 0.9 to 1.5, and a high moisture content of >100%. The purpose of the study was to prognosticate the potential of Eco-Processed Pozzolan (EPP) as peat soil stabilization material with improved technique and its consequence of the methods, which was the peat soils index properties and analyse the characteristics of the peat soil stabilization before and after treatment using Eco-Processed Pozzolan (EPP). The soil was mixed with 10, 20, and 30% Eco-Processed Pozzolan (EPP) and then compacted (compaction test) in a metal mould with an internal diameter of 105 mm using a 2.5 kg rammer of 50 mm diameter, freefalling from 300 mm above the top of the soil Three layers compaction of approximately equal depth and 27 blows spread evenly over the soil surface for each layer. The expected result to accomplish the main purpose was to prognosticate the potential Eco-Processed Pozzolan (EPP) as peat soil stabilization material with improved technique and its consequence of the methods. According to the findings, peat soil treated with EPP will transform its qualities from peat to usable soil. However, the presence of moisture will reduce the mixture's ability. According to the findings of this study, the optimum EPP for stabilizing peat soils was 30-40%. Correspondingly, the elemental composition of peat soil mixed with EPP improved regardless of Carbon, Ca composition. Comparatively, the amount of Silicon, Si increased from 6.5% (Peat + EPP 10%) to 12.9% (Peat + EPP 40%) due to the crystallization of EPP and peat. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-07 Full Text: PDF

Published: January 2023

Rooms with pollutants have a poor impact of 2-5 times greater than outdoors. The lecture hall had the potential to experience a decrease in air quality. This study was conducted to assess microbiological air quality in the general lecture building I Institut Teknologi Sumatra, Lampung, Indonesia, during the COVID-19 pandemic and its relationship with environmental conditions. This study was conducted using a settling sampling technique to count the number of bacteria and fungi in the air. Samples were collected twice daily for five working days. The results showed that the highest concentrations of bacteria and fungi were found at the wifi corner location, at 36.7–1237.2 CFU/m3 and 225.4–1431.2 CFU/m3, respectively. The highest average concentrations of bacteria and fungi at the wifi corner location were found in the afternoon at 479.1 ± 438.1 CFU/m3 and 800 ± 548.4 CFU/m3, respectively. The three locations did not meet the standards of room suitability for humans with immunodeficiencies based on the ACGIH. The location of the wifi corner did not meet the standards of the Minister of Manpower of the Republic of Indonesia No. 5 of 2018 and the WHO regarding microbial standards in the room. The highest value of the Global Microbial Contamination Index (GIMC/m3) was found in the wifi corner (G4: ≥2000 – ≤4000), which is closely related to population density and ventilation. Environmental factors influence the density of bacteria and fungi at the sampling sites. The relative humidity strongly influenced the concentration of fungi. In addition to relative humidity, bacterial density is also affected by light intensity and the number of people. This indicates that despite restrictions on activities during the COVID-19 pandemic, the room at GKU 1 did not meet the eligibility requirements for students with immune disorders. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-09 Full Text: PDF
Real Love or the Dark Reality of Human Trafficking? A Literature Examination of Filipina Mail-Order Brides
Authors: Magee Dana
Published: January 2023

This paper examines available literature of the practice of the mail-order bride industry, both within historical and contemporary contexts, with particular emphasis on Filipina women. With thousands of women immigrating to Western countries annually through the unregulated market of the marriage-order industry, scholars offer differing perspectives on the legitimacy of the arrangements. This paper analyzes the arguments made by scholars that the practice is inherently abusive, subjecting women to human trafficking. It also considers the arguments that mail-order marriages can be an empowering opportunity, citing the economic and social advantages afforded by immigrating to Western countries. Lastly, through available research which conducted interviews with mail-order brides, this paper examines women’s firsthand experiences and thoughts regarding the industry and their satisfaction within their marriages.

Meteorolojik hadiseler havacılık sektöründe önemli rol oynamaktadır. Havalimanlarında meydana gelen şiddetli meteorolojik hadiseler havacılığı olumsuz yönden etkilemektedir. Şiddetli meteorolojik hadiselerden biri de rüzgar şiddetinin
saatlik ortalamasının 34 knots (17.2 ms-1) ve üzerinde meydana geldiği şiddetli rüzgarlardır. Bu şiddetli rüzgarlar nedeniyle havacılık sektöründe birçok uçak seferleri ertelenmekte ve iptal edilmekteyken can ve mal kayıpları da
yaşanmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, İstanbul Uluslararası Havalimanı (International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) kodu: LTFM) için rüzgar fırtınalarının uzaysal ve zamansal dağılımlarının araştırmasını yapmaktır. Çalışma periyodu
olarak havalimanının açıldığı tarih olan 29 Ekim 2018 yılından 1 Mayıs 2022 tarihine kadar olan zaman aralığı seçilmiştir. Çalışmada, Aviation Routine Weather Report (METAR), Aviation Selected Special Weather Report (SPECI), şimşek
gözlemi, Skew-T Log-P diyagramı, sinoptik haritalar, sinoptik rasatlar, radar ve uydu görüntüleri değerlendirilmiş, Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory Model (HYSPLIT) çalıştırılmıştır. İncelenen 4 yıllık periyotta
meydana gelen hamle değerlerinin rüzgar gülü oluşturulmuştur ve Ulusal Hava Durumu Servisi (National Weather Service(NWS)) tasarladığı sınıflandırma kriterlerine göre sınıflandırma yapılmıştır. Ayrıca yapılan sınıflandırmaya göre
fırtına ile birlikte hava olayının meydana geldiği 36 gün tespit edilmiştir. Bu günlere ait METAR ve SPECI verileri incelendiğinde konvektif fırtınaların meydana geldiği gün sayısı 5 iken konvektif olmayan fırtınaların meydana
geldiği gün sayısı 31’dir. Bakıldığında LTFM’de meydana gelen rüzgar ortalama değerinin ve hamle değerinin en fazla olduğu gün olarak 29 Kasım 2021 tarihi tespit edilmiştir. 11:05 UTC’de rüzgar 210 dereceden ortalama (10 dakikalık)
47 knots ve hamle değeri olarak da 68 knots ölçülmüştür. Hakim rüyet 6000 m’ye kadar düşmüş, hafif şiddetli sağanak yağmur (–SHRA) ile birlikte savrulan toz (BLDU) hadiseleri rasat edilmiştir.

Air pollution is the presence of certain substances in the air in the form of solid, liquid and gas in the atmosphere at a level and for a period of time that may pose a danger to humans and other living things or non-living things.
Therefore, air pollution control should be done and pollutants should not exceed certain limits. For this reason, it is important for our health to be informed about the air quality of the city we live in and to consider our lifestyle
in accordance with the air quality. In this study, hourly data of particulate matter (PM), nitrogen dioxides (NO, NO2, NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and ozone (O3) between the years 2019-2021 at Eskişehir Odunpazari
station were examined. The temporal variation graphs of all pollutants drawn at Odunpazari station, it was observed that pollutant concentrations increased between 06-12 and 18-23 hours, generally in late summer and autumn. The
wind rose drawn for the station, it was observed that the prevailing wind direction is “West”, “North West” and “East”. The pollution winds show that the directions with the maximum pollution frequency are east for PM10 pollutant
parameter, west for CO, west for NO pollutant parameter, west for NOx pollutant parameter, East for NO2 pollutant parameter, East for PM2.5 pollutant parameter, direction and the east direction for the SO2 pollutant parameter.
The highest value was found to be 94% in the correlation relationship chart examined to examine the relationship of pollutants with other atmospheric parameters, and this value is between NOx and NO pollutants. A value greater
than 50% indicates that there is a strong and positive relationship between pollutants. The lowest value was determined to be -67% and this value was observed between humidity and temperature parameters. The value being less than
-50% indicates that there is a negative but strong relationship between the parameters. To sum up, only NOx exceeding the critical limit value is caused by vehicle emissions and high-temperature combustion processes. For this reason,
suggestions have been made in the study to attract this pollutant to the boundary layer determined to create healthy conditions.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, countries have observed different measures that we are not used to, such as the use of masks, isolation at home, semi-curfew, and isolation. Curfews, measures, and restrictions taken to prevent the spread
of COVID-19 all over the world have led to extremely significant reductions in air quality. Türkiye followed different policies such as tightening the measures when the number of cases increased during the pandemic process, relaxing
the measures when the number of cases decreased, and starting the normalization periods. In this study, it is aimed to determine, analyse, and evaluate pollutant concentrations (PM₁₀, SO₂, NO₂) in different periods representing
the duration of implementation of curfew and other measures in Türkiye. An average of 2.08% increase in PM₁₀ concentrations in the curfew periods and 4.12% in the normalization periods is observed compared to the previous year.
In SO₂, an average increase of 7.56% is observed in the curfew periods and an increase of 32.01% in the normalization periods. In NO₂, an average of 5.19% decrease was observed in the curfew periods and a decrease of 1.92% in the
normalization periods.

In this study, the root extract of Cylindropuntia cholla was analyzed as a possible source of substances with potential urease inhibitory and antibacterial activity. C. cholla cactus are abundant in the arid regions of Mexico and are traditionally used to treat kidney diseases, urinary tract infections, and in some cases, to combat the formation of kidney stones. Anti-urease action was evaluated from methanolic root extracts by initial velocity methods. We observed an IC50 of 2.04 mg/mL. Lineweaver-Burk pattern showed an uncompetitive inhibition. The antibacterial activity was evaluated over Klebsiella pneumoniae (ATCCTM 13883) and Staphylococcus aureus (ATCCTM 25923) and we only observed effects over S. aureus growth at 200 mg/mL of extract concentration.

Rice requires nitrogen for the growth of plant vegetative organs. Potassium plays a role in regulating the osmotic pressure and turgor pressure of plants, especially in a dry land. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of varieties and nitrogen and potassium fertilization on the growth and yield of upland rice. The research was conducted in Bleberan Village, Kab. Gunungkidul and continued at the Laboratory of the Department of Agricultural Cultivation, Faculty of Agriculture, Gadjah Mada University. This study used a split-plot design of three replications. Planting The main plot is nitrogen fertilization which consists of no nitrogen fertilization (0 kg.ha-1 Urea), nitrogen fertilization according to the recommendation (350 kg.ha-1 Urea) and twice recommended nitrogen fertilization (700 kg.ha-1 Urea). Subplots potassium fertilization which consists of no potassium fertilization (0 kg.ha-1), potassium fertilization according to the recommendation (225 kg.ha-1 KCl), and twice recommended potassium fertilization (450 kg.ha-1 KCL). This planting uses polybags, per plot there are 10 polybags containing 3 upland rice seeds. There were 9 treatment combinations, each of which was repeated three times. Analysis of the data using variance, then the Tukey test with a level of 5% was carried out. The results showed that Urea fertilization did not increase the total dry weight of the plant, the number of panicles and 1000 grain weight, and grain yield per clump. KCl fertilization with a dose of 60 g/plot (450 kg/ha) increased the total dry weight of the plant but did not increase the number of panicles and 1000 grain weight and plant yield.
