In this study, factorial randomized experiments were conducted in a controlled greenhouse environment to investigate an efficient and effective component of water management technology in increasing soybean yield. The soybeans were planted in polybags with 6 kg of Alfisol soil media and fertilizer. The bags were perforated with 16 holes at approximately 1 to 2 cm from the base and put into a water container. The container was immersed in water levels of 5 cm and 10 cm. The application of these immersions was carried out in four stages: 0 to 15 days after planting (DAP), 15 to 30 DAP, 30 to 45 DAP, and continued until harvest. Observations of growth were carried out on the greenness of leaves, plant height, leaf area, root length, and dry weight of plants, and soil water content was checked every two weeks. The yield measured after harvest consisted of the number of pods, the number of seeds/plants, weight of 100 seeds, and weight of seeds per plants. The water level had a significant effect on plant height, dry weight, leaf greenness, number of pods, and number of seeds/plants. The immersion stage has significant effects on plant height, harvest age, dry weight, leaf greenness, number of pods, and number of seeds/plants. Continuous immersion in a water level of 5 cm has shown the best yield on number of pods (20.81) and number of seeds per plant (162.94). This treatment increased seed yield (seed weight) approximately by 19.23% compared to the field capacity.

The main objective of this study is to examine the demographic, social and economic characteristics of farm households around the forest area, analyze the household food consumption patterns and analyze the relationship between food consumption patterns with the characteristics of farm households in the vicinity of the forest area. This research was conducted in Takalar Regency, namely in Kale Ko’mara Village, Polongbangkeng Utara District, starting in July October 2018. Types of data used are primary data and secondary data with the number of respondents as many as 40 farmers around the forest area. The data that has been collected is analyzed using qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis. The results showed that the demographic, social and economic characteristics of farmers around the area were: 1) the age of the respondents was in the age range of 40-50 years (60.00%), 2) the highest number of family dependents was 3-4 people (65.00% ), 3) the dominant education level is elementary school / equivalent (55.0%), 4) the type of side jobs are generally planters (62.50%), 5) the longest experience of farming in the range of 20-30 years, (60.00% ), 5) the biggest income is Rp. 2,000,000-Rp.3,000,000 / Month (52.50%), 6) and the highest average expenditure is Rp. 1,500,000 - Rp. 3,000,000 (90.0%). The food consumption pattern is in accordance with the Hope Food Pattern (PPH) score of 97.8 which means that the distribution and availability of food for households is guaranteed with the composition and availability of adequate food ingredients, influenced by factors of age, income and expenditure characteristics significantly and the educational characteristics factor is very real. The characteristics of the number of family dependents, type of work and experience of farming do not have a significant effect on the patterns of food consumption of farm households around the forest area.
