Oil palm is a major plantation commodity in Indonesia. Riau is one of the provinces that has the largest oil palm distribution in Indonesia. Oil palm plantations in Riau are mostly cultivated on marginal lands, such as soils with sandy textures (Dystrudepts). Soils with sandy textures are a limiting factor for the growth and nutrient uptake of oil palm. So it is necessary to develop a technolog…
Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is widely cultivated in Indonesia, especially in Riau Province, where many plantations are located on marginal soils like sandy-textured Dystrudepts which have high percolation and nutrient leaching. To address this, slow-release fertilizers like Polyhalite are suitable but require potassium supplementation, such as with KCl. This study aims to examine the eff…
The decline in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) production in Indonesia is caused by several factors, one of which is the attack of the rhinoceros beetle (Oryctes rhinoceros Linn.). Control using synthetic insecticides is the common method used by farmers to control Oryctes rhinoceros L., but it has negative impacts such as the formation of pesticide residues, killing natural enemies, the dev…

Sweet corn production and productivity in Riau has fluctuated due to changes in harvested land area. Solution to increase sweet corn production and productivity is to expand planting area to peaty land and use superior varieties. Problems on peaty land can be solved with EFB (Empty Fruit Bunch) ash. Assembly of superior varieties can be done through correlation and path-analysis. Research aimed…
This studyaims to obtain genetic diversity and inheritance patterns in several sweet corn varieties by applying various doses of EFB (Empty Fruit Bunch) ash on peaty land. This study used a group randomized design with 3 replications. The sweet corn varieties used consisted of 4 varieties, namely Bonanza F1, Kumala F1, Golden Boy F1 and Paragon F1. The doses of ash consisted of 4 levels, that i…
The problem that often occurs on peaty land for cultivation activities is that they generallyhave a low soil pH. This can be overcome by applying empty palm bunch ash and using superior varieties. This research aims to determine the response of several varieties of corn plants to the application of various doses of empty palm bunch ash on peaty land. This research used a randomized block design…
Bactrocera carambolae is the main pest found in sweet starfruit. To the attack of pests B. carambolae can reach 100%. One of the efforts to control B. carambolae pests is the use of entomopathogenic fungi. The use of entomopathogenic fungi because they are safe for the environment and available in nature. The study aimed of was to obtain the best concentration of entomopathogenic fungi Cordycep…
People in Tualang District grow many medicinal plants, but many do not know the types and benefits. This knowledge is generally only understood by the elderly, so research is needed to identify the diversity and benefits of medicinal plants. This study aims to identify various types of medicinal plants, benefits, ways of utilization, and ways of cultivating medicinal plants in Tualang District.…
Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is a plantation crop that is widely cultivated in Indonesia, including in Riau Province. The decline in oil palm productivity in Riau can be caused by diseases such as basal stem rot (BPB) caused by Ganoderma sp. The study aims to test the ability of chitin and its derivatives to inhibit the growth of Ganoderma sp. and to determine its effect on the morphology…
