Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh jarak tanam terhadap tinggi tanaman dan berat segar per rumpun rumput gajah odot (Pennisetum purpureum cv.mott). Penelitian ini dilakukan di CIkajang kabupaten Garut, dimulai bulan Juni sampai bulan Agustus 2016. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) dengan 5 macam perlakuan dan 4 ulangan sehingga terdapat 20 unit percobaan yaitu : P₁ = 60 cm x 60 cm, P₂ = 70 cm x 70 cm, P₃ = 80 cm x 80 cm, P₄ = 90 cm x 90 cm and P₅ = 100 cm x 100 cm. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada pengaruh jarak tanam terhadap berat segar per rumpun tetapi jarak tanam memberikan pengaruh terhadap tinggi tanaman dalam setiap petak. Kata kunci : jarak tanam, rumput gajah, tinggi tanaman, dan berat segar Abstract The experiment was conducted to study the effect of row spacing to plant high and fresh weight per clump of dwarf nafier (Pennisetum purpureum cv. mott). The experiment conducted in Cikajang Garut district, start at June until to August 2016. The method used in this experiment is Randomized Block Design (RBD) which consist of 5 treatments and 4 replicated there are 20 unites of study namely : P₁ = 60 cm x 60 cm, P₂ = 70 cm x 70 cm, P₃ = 80 cm x 80 cm, P₄ = 90 cm x 90 cm and P₅ = 100 cm x 100 cm. The result showed : there is not effect of row spacing number of fresh weight per clump but the row spacing has effect are of plant high at the compartment. Keywords : Row spacing, dwarf nafier, plant high and fresh weight

The experiment was conducted to study the influence of binder on physical characteristic Gamal pellet. The data were anlyzed by analyzed of variance and significant experiment result would be examined by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test. The treatments were consisted of  P1  (30%  molasses+ 70% Gamal meal), P2 (40%  molasses + 60% Gamal meal), P3 (30% Tapioca + 70% Gamal meal), P4 (40% tapioca + 60% Gamal meal) and P5 (20% tapioca + 20% molasses +  60% Gamal meal). Variabel measured were spesific gravity, bulk density and compacted bulk density. The resuls showed that the treatment had significant effect (P> 0.05)on spesific gravity and bulk density but did not had significant effect (P<0,05) on compacted bulk density. The conclusion of the experiment that added of 30% molasses (P1) as binder gave the optimum physical characteristic of Gliricidia sepium pellet.Keywords : Binder, Physical characteristic test,Gamal Pellet

Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh dari substitusi bungkil kedelai dengan Indigofera zollingeriana hasil fermentasi terhadap sifat fisik pellet setelah masa penyimpanan satu bulan. Penelitian uji sifat fisik pellet dilaksanakan pada bulan April sampai September 2018 yang bertempat di Laboratorium terpadu Fakultas Pertanian UNIGA. Metode yang dilakukan yaitu Metode Eksperiental menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan 5 perlakuan dan 4 ulangan, yaitu : R0 = Bungkil kedelai 26%, Indigofera fermentasi 0%; R1 = Bungkil kedelai 19,5%, Indigofera fermentasi 6,5%; R2 = Bungkil kedelai 13%, Indigofera fermentasi 13%; R3= Bungkil kedelai 6,5%, Indigofera fermentasi 19,5%; R4 = Bungkil kedelai 0%, Indigofera fermentasi 26%. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan Indigofera zollingeriana sampai level 26% tidak memberikan pengaruh yang nyata terhadap sifat fisik Pellet setelah masa penyimpanan satu bulan. ¬Kata-kata Kunci :Indigofera zollingeriana, Pellet, Sifat fisik, Penyimpanan Abstract This study aims to determine the effect of substitution of soybean meal with Indigofera zollingeriana fermentation on the physical properties of pellets after a one-month storage period. Research on physycal properties of pellets was conducted from April to September 2018 which is located at the UNIGA Agriculture Faculty Integrated Laboratory. The method used is the Experimental Method using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 5 treatments and 4 replications, that is : R0 = 26% soybean meal, 0% fermented Indigofera; R1 = 19.5% soybean meal, fermented Indigofera 6.5%; R2 = 13% soybean meal, fermented Indigofera 13%; R3 = 6.5% soybean meal, fermented Indigofera 19.5%; R4 = 0% soybean meal, 26% fermented Indigofera. Based on the results of the study showed that addition of indigofera zollingeriana to level 26% did not have a significant effect on the physical properties of pellets after a one-month storage period Keywords: Indigofera zollingeriana, Pellets, Physical properties, Storage

This research was about the performance Friesian Holland dairy cow in different agricural ecosystems inIndonesia. The objective of research was to study growth performance, body weight and milk production FH in Indonesia. The method of the research was survey method, with the technique of determining farmers proportionally. Sampling farmers and their livestock by random sampling method. The data was processed using SPSS 22.0 for the simple descriptive analysis and then tested statistically used T-Test. The results it was concluded that growth, body weight, and milk yield of dairy cows were influenced by agroecosystems, in the dry land agroecosystems and located on or adjacent to forests (dryland and tropical forest/AES DL-Forest), productivity of dairy cows was better than irrigated and dry land with wide balanced rice agroecosystems (DL-IRF) and rainfed and dry land agroecosystems (AES DL-Rainfed).

Peternakan ayam broiler merupakan salah satu usaha peternakan yang memberikan kontribusi terbanyak dalam memenuhi kebutuhan pangan hewani di Indonesia, yang paling utama adalah meningkatkan pendapatan.  Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis minat masyarakat terhadap usaha peternakan ayam broiler dengan pola kemitraan di Kecamatan Karangpawitan Kabupaten Garut, yang dilakukan pada bulan April 2020.
