Orange is one of the local fruits, which is a source of income for farmers in Narigunung 1 Village, Tiganderket District, Karo Regency. However, in recent years, many orange orchards have been attacked by the fruit fly pest of Bactrocera sp. (Diptera: Tephritidae), causing the oranges become rotten and fall. This resulted in losses for farmers; there are crop failures in some orchards, while the farmers had to pay off a large pesticide purchase. One of the effective ways to ward off the arrival of these fruit flies is by using ultrasonic waves. Based on a research, fruit flies will be disturbed if there are ultrasonic waves with a frequency of 25-30 KHz that work based on ambient temperatures above 18⁰C. In addition, to control the fruit fly population, this community service also used a modified steiner trap, employing methyl eugenol, which can stimulate male fruit flies to enter the trap. Both repellents and traps will be made at a height of where fruit flies are active around the orange tree. With this control system, the orange orchard will be free from fruit flies so that farmers will no longer experience losses; besides, ecological trapping of fruit flies will reduce the population of fruit flies around Narigunung 1 Village, Karo Regency.

Authors: Rangkuti Mohammad Ridwan , Rangkuti Zoraya Alfathin
Published: November 2022

Water as a natural resource that is vital for human life, is increasingly scarce and its availability for agriculture is increasingly limited. For businesses in the agricultural sector, the availability of irrigation water and dams is one of the factors that determine the level of rice field productivity, but the use of water in Kota Datar Village is uneven and inefficient, reflected in the low intensity of food crops (rice and secondary crops). The regulation of irrigation water for lowland rice plants tends to be conventional, wasteful and does not consider cropping patterns in a year. As a result, when there is a long dry season, the stock of water in reservoirs or dams is not sufficient to irrigate rice crops. When the rainy season arrives the water is very abundant, even causing floods, the water is not evenly distributed throughout the irrigation network, so the next planting season will be delayed. Research on strengthening the capacity of the Water User Farmers Association (P3A) is able to answer questions related to reality, especially in Kota Datar Village, which shows that water sources and irrigation networks and dams are not properly maintained and managed. The research objectives are (1) to analyze the characteristics of Gapoktan members/communities, institutional support, and capacity building of WUA members; (2) to analyze capacity strengthening in water management for paddy fields, and its relation to the characteristics of Gapoktan factors, institutional support and capacity building of WUA members; (3) to analyze the level of empowerment in irrigation water management and its correlation with capacity building and institutional strengthening of the P3A Gapoktan; and (4) to formulate a strategy for strengthening capacity in water use towards WUA empowerment in water management for rice fields.

Liquid waste from the steel industry processing, washing machine, and kitchenware foundry contained the elements of copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), and manganese (Mn). The effluent samples were destructed using concentrated HNO3. Then determined the concentration of the elements copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), and manganese (Mn) using an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer with a calibration curve. The results obtained for the level of copper (Cu) on the sample inlet was 0.9714 mg/L to 0.9719 mg/L, and the sample outlet was 3.9990 mg/L to 4.0002 mg/L. Levels of the element chromium (Cr) on sample inlet was 0.0295 mg/L to 0.0297 mg/L, the sample outlet was 0.0399 mg/L to 0.0400 mg/L. Meanwhile, the level of manganese (Mn) in the sample inlet was 0.1269 mg/L to 0.1271 mg/L in a sample outlet was 2.9699 mg/L to 2.9701 mg/L. Then the steel industry wastewater for elemental copper (Cu) and manganese (Mn) exceeded the limits that have been instituted by the Minister of Environment Decree No. 51, 1995, regarding the Liquid Waste Quality Standard for Industrial Activity.
