ABSTRACT The rollertable is a collection of rollers arranged to deliver timber from the debarking drum to the washing station. The transportation process uses a roller table and washing station equipped with a metal detector to detect iron that is still embedded in the wood. The purpose of this study is to determine how the roller table works in carrying out chip production as pulp raw materia…
ABSTRACT Foam mat drying method can accelerate the drying process because the foam creates a porous structure in the material that speeds up the drying process. The relatively low temperature (50-80°C) reduces damage to the nutritional components, color, and aroma of heat-sensitive ingredients. The study aims to determine the best temperature in the instant seasoning drying process on the…

Riau Province has several natural attractions, one of which is Pertamina Lirik Nature Park. Pertamina Nature Tourism Lirik is one of the areas that has tourism potential and a fairly diverse diversity of vegetation types, but the availability of informati…
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays L.) is an important commodity used as food, animal feed, and industrial raw materials. In Riau Province, maize production is declining due to S. frugiperda infestation, which can cause losses of up to 40%. The use of synthetic chemical insecticides to control this pest has side effects such as pest resistance and ecosystem disruption. This study aims to test the effect…
ABSTRACT This study aimed to estimate the genetic variability, heritability, and components of production traits in closely related populations of open-pollinated corn (Zea mays L.). The research was conducted experimentally using a randomized block design with four half-sib families and four replications. Observed traits included male and female flowering age, harvest age, cob weight with…
ABSTRACT Fruit flies (Bactrocera sp.) are the primary pests of chili plants (Capsicum annuum L.). An environmentally friendly control solution is the use of traps combined with an attractant from eucalyptus leaf oil (Melaleuca leucadendron L.). This study aims to determine the species of fruit flies that attact chili plants and to obtain the best dose of eucalyptus leaf oil as an attractan…
ABSTRACT PLCs are often used in industry to minimize maintenance and replacement costs. Meanwhile, VSD allows variable speed regulation of induction motors, thus enabling efficient use of induction motors. However, the use of PLCs and VSDs in controlling induction motor speed also requires an effective monitoring system to ensure optimal performance and detect potential problems quickly. I…
ABSTRACT This study was conducted using a completely randomized factorial design (CRD) consisting of two factors. The first factor was NPKMg fertilizer with three levels: N1: 30.5 g, N2: 36.5 g, and N3: 42.5 g per polybag; the second factor was Petrobio biofertilizer with three levels: P1: 20 g, P2: 40 g, and P3: 60 g per polybag. The parameters observed included the increase in plant height, …
ABSTRACT The assembly of maize (Zea mays L.) varieties for small-scale farmers is very necessary, one of the promising varieties to be developed is open polinated (OP) whose seed production is simpler and technological inputs are relatively low. The development of OP requires information on several inheritance parameters of characters that support the productivity of corn plants. The param…
ABSTRACT Rice is the staple food of the Indonesian population. The decline in rice quality is caused by the attack of plant pests during storage, particularly Sitophilus oryzae L. A recommended control method is the use of plant based insecticide, namely areca nut (Areca catechu L.) seed powder. This research aims to determine the effective dose of areca nut seed powder (A. catechu L.) for con…
ABSTRACT The increasing intensity of land use for horticultural cultivation has raised concerns about its long-term impact on soil quality and biodiversity, particularly soil macrofauna, which play a critical role in maintaining soil health. This study aims to evaluate the impact of land use duration on soil macrofauna diversity and soil organic carbon (C-organic) content in horticultural farm…
ABSTRACT Sago (Metroxylon spp.) is an important commodity serving as a source of local carbohydrates and industrial raw material, especially in Kepulauan Meranti, Riau Province, which has extensive sago plantations. The high genetic diversity in sago leads to variability in starch production, highlighting the need for character identification to support the selection of superior varieties.…
Asian redtail catfish (Hemibagrus nemurus) is a cultivated commodity that is widely cultivated in Indonesia. One of the cultivation systems used is without water replacement during the rearing period. This condition can cause ammonia from leftover feed and feces to increase in the rearing container. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of adding monosodium glutamate (MSG) on the liver perfo…
Palm oil (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is an important commodity for the Indonesian economy as a source of vegetable oil and biodiesel. Inceptisol soil has low fertility that requires fertilizer application. The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of the combination of Libo Ganik organic fertilizer and NPKMg 12:12:17:2 fertilizer and to determine the optimal dose to support the growth…
ABSTRACT Population growth increases the need for rice while production decreases, so the use of marginal land such as less fertile Podsolic soil can increase its fertility by adding solid compost and coal fly ash. This study was conducted with the aim of studying the effect of the interaction of solid compost with coal fly ash and each treatment, and to obtain the best dose in increasing the …
ABSTRACT Mung beans (Vigna radiata L.) are an important legume commodity in Indonesia. The increasing production of mung beans must be maintained to meet domestic needs. Efforts that can be made include paying attention to cultivation aspects, one of which is Urea fertilization. Excessive use of inorganic fertilizers can reduce soil fertility and leave residues. Efforts made to reduce inorgani…
ABSTRACT Ultisol soils are widely found in Indonesia and possess chemical and physical properties that can influence the photodegradation process. Chlorpyrifos, as one of the most commonly used pesticides, tends to persist in the soil, posing a risk of environmental contamination. Photodegradation, which involves the breakdown of chlorpyrifos under sunlight, is an effective method to accelerat…
ABSTRACT Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is an important plantation crop in Indonesia, because of its high economic value and one of the leading plantation commodities in Riau which is used as a source of vegetable oil. This study aims to evaluate the interaction effect between mycorrhiza and Rock Phosphate fertilizer, single factor of mycorrhiza and Rock Phosphate fertilizer, and get the m…
ABSTRACT Phosphorus (P) is an essential nutrient for plants, but its availability in soil is often limited due to its binding with soil minerals such as Fe and Al. The availability of P in paddy fields is strongly influenced by soil pH, organic matter, and redox conditions. Available P can be measured using various extraction methods, including Bray I and Bray II. This study compared the effec…
