Nutrient content of coffee berries husk can be improved through a fermentation process using inoculants. A study was conducted to determine the nutrient content of the coffee berries husk fermented with different types of inoculant. The study used fruit skin of Robusta produced by farmers in the village of Sanda Subdistrict Pupuan Tabanan regency. A completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of 4 treatments and 6 replications was adopted in the study. The treatments were coffee berries husk without fermentation (K1), coffee berries husk fermented with Aspergillus niger (K2), coffee berries husk fermented with yeast tempe (Rhizopus oryzae) (K3), and coffee berries husk fermented with yeast tapai (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) (K4). The observed parameters were the contents of (1) dry matter, (2) crude protein, (3) gross energy, (4) crude fat, (5) organic matter, (6) ash, (7) crude fiber, (8) calcium and (9) phosphorus. The results showed that the highest crude protein content was resulted from K2 treatment (10.23%), while the lowest crude fiber content was resulted from K3 treatment (27.17%). This study suggested that the fermentation process able to increase the crude protein content of the coffee berries husk.

Abstract. Stunting is a condition of failure to grow in toddlers due to chronic malnutrition thus it is too short for their age. Data from BKKBN 2017 showed that in Garut Regency is the highest in West Java with a stunting prevalence rate that exceeds the national prevalence rate. Data from the Garut Regency Health Office indicated that Mulyasari Village, Bayongbong District, is one of the districts in the Garut Regency with a significant stunting rate. This study aims to determine the frequency and description of the characteristic description of stunted children in children aged 24-59 months, maternal characteristics, environmental characteristics, and behavioral characteristics in Mulyasari Village, Bayongbong District, Garut Regency in 2021.This type of research is descriptive observational research that is retrospective. The data were analyzed using univariate analysis. The results of this study showed that the most of the toddlers were stunted (87%) which the dominant factor in the incidence of stunting among children aged between 24 and 59 months in Mulyasari Village, Bayongbong District, Garut Regency in 2021 is unemployed mothers, representing 87% of cases. Abstrak. Stunting merupakan kondisi gagal tumbuh pada balita akibat adanya kekurangan gizi kronis sehingga terlalu pendek untuk usianya. Data BKKBN 2017 menunjukkan bahwa Kabupaten Garut menjadi urutan tertinggi di Jawa Barat dengan angka prevalensi stunting yang melebihi angka prevalensi nasional. Data dari Dinas Kesehatan Kabupaten Garut menunjukkan bahwa Desa Mulyasari Kecamatan Bayongbong menjadi salah satu kecamatan di Kabupaten Garut yang menjadi fokus utama daerah stunting. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui frekuensi dan gambaran karakteristik anak stunting pada anak usia 24 – 59 bulan, karakteristik ibu, karakteristik lingkungan dan karakteristik perilaku di Desa Mulyasari Kecamatan Bayongbong Kabupaten Garut Tahun 2021. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian observasional deskriptif yang bersifat retrospektif. Analisis data menggunakan analisis univariat. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar balita stunting dengan kategori stunted (87%) dengan faktor yang mendominasi pada kejadian stunting di Desa Mulyasari Kecamatan Bayongbong Kabupaten Garut tahun 2021 adalah ibu yang tidak bekerja yaitu sebesar 87%.

The research was conducted to determine the growth and productivity of cassava plants that are given organic fertilizers and their potential waste as ruminant animal feed. The research was conducted at Kerthi Winangun Farmers Group, Bukti village, Kubutambahan District, Buleleng Regency. The experiment was arranged in a completely randomized design with three fertilization treatments and twelve replications. The fertilizer given were: cow dung 5 kg/plant (UK1), compost 5 kg/plant (UK2) and cow dung 5 kg/plant + bio urine 300 ml/plant (UK3). The Parameters observed were (1) plant growth (height, Number of leaves and tubers), (2) tuber production, (3) waste (leaf and peel) production and (4) carrying capacity. The result shows that application of 5 kg compost/plant yielded the highest tuber, leaf and peel production was respectively 1789,25±475,50, 667 ± 104 and 416,61±18 g/plant. Production of this peel can be used to feed 1.29-1.52 cattle/ha/year or 10.73-12,68 goat/ha/year. In conclusion, the cassava that was given with 5 kg compost per plant has the highest production to be used as a source of feed for ruminants.
