Orchid is one type of ornamental flower plant that has many types spread throughout the world, including Indonesia.  The original habitat of orchids is forests or areas that have high humidity, rich in organic matter.   Reduction of forest area makes several types of orchids threatened with extinction so that efforts are needed for conservation and protection.  Motilango pine forest tourism found several types of orchids, but the surrounding community did not know the prospect of orchid plants if they were developed properly. The purpose of the activity is to educate the local community and tourism managers to cultivate orchids to become a source of family income.   The method used is discourse method and discussion.  Participants consist of communities around the area, village officials and pine forest tourism managers. The material presented consisted of an introduction to the characteristics of  orchids, prospects, methods of propagation and cultivation of orchids.  The result of the activity is that there is an increase in participant knowledge about orchid plants.  There are two types of orchids that are commonly found in the tourist area of Motilango pine, namely the dove orchid (Dendrobium crumenatum) and the ground orchid (Spathoglottis plicata) which are easily propagated by separating seedlings.   Orchid growing media that is widely available in the area is coconut husk.

[Kotoran ikan lele, kotoran kambing, urin sapi dan daun lamtoro merupakan bahan organik yang mudah diperoleh dan belum dimanfaatkan secara optimal.  Untuk memanfaatkan bahan tersebut maka dapat dibuat menjadi pupuk organik cair agar lebih mudah diaplikasi dan dibuat kombinasi agar dapat meningkatkan pertumbuhan tanaman pakcoy yang signifikan. Tujuan penelitian adalah memperoleh kombinasi bahan organik yang memberikan hasil terbaik pada tanaman pakcoy.  Penelitian lapangan ini dibuat sesuai pola Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) yang dengan 4 perlakuan dan 4 ulangan dengan menggunakan plot berukuran 1 m², jarak tanam 20 cm x 20 cm.  Perlakuan yaitu P0= kotoran ikan lele (kontrol), P1= kotoran ikan lele + kotoran kambing, P2= kotoran ikan lele + urin sapi dan P3= kotoran ikan lele + daun lamtoro.  Yang menjadi variabel yang diamati adalah jumlah daun, bobot segar panen, panjang akar dan bobot akar.  Hasil penelitian adalah kotoran ikan lele dan kotoran kambing (P1) meningkatkan jumlah daun, bobot segar panen dan bobot akar tanaman pakcoy secara signifikan.

Red unions are one type of plant that is widely used as a  spice ini cooking and cannot be replaced with other types of plants so it is needed every time.   The research objective was to obtain one type of organic solution that produced the highest production of shallots and to calculate the potential production of each given organic  solution.  The research was carried out at the Kebun Percontohan Balai Penyuluhan Pertanian Bulango Timur in January-April 2020.  The research was conducted in the form of Randomized Bloc design consisting of 8 treatments including control namely without the use of organic solutions, POC, MOL Rice, MOL Banana, ZPT red union, ZPT Tauge, PGPR Root Bamboo and PGPR Elephan Grass Root.  Repeat 3 times with a plot size 1 m x 1 m.  The parameters observed were fresh weight and dry weight of red union bulbs.  The results showed that the highest fresh weight was obtained from the treatment of ZPT red union  14,22 ton haˉ¹) and MOL banana (14,06 ton haˉ¹).  The highest dry weight of bulbs resulted from the MOL treatment of banana (9,93 ton haˉ¹) and ZPT red union (9,87 ton haˉ¹).

Ipomoea reptans L. is ones type of vegetable that is consumed by the people of Gorontalo.  The Mo’awota farmer group harvests every day.  The obstacle faced is the lack of knowledge about organic cultivation and farming analysis so that farmer do not know the amount of income obtained from their farming.  The purpose of this activity is to increase farmers’ knowledge about the importance of  farming analysis and pest control proper and enviromentally friendly farming so as to production that is safe for consumers.  The activity was by providing counseling in the Mo’awota farmer group Bulango Timur and conducting pree tests, post tests and calculating farming analysis. The results show that there is increase in farmers’ knowledge about organic farming and pest and desease control.  The results of farming analysis obtained that the average income each farmer is Rp.1.060.000,-/month and R/C ratio of 2,12.

Kotoran ikan lele dan kotoran kambing dapat digunakan sebagai pupuk organik pada tanaman, mudah diperoleh dan mengandung unsur hara. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui potensi air kotoran ikan lele dan rendaman kotoran kambing sebagai pupuk organik pada selada dan menganalisis respon tanaman selada pada pemberian air kotoran ikan lele dan rendaman kotoran kambing secara terpisah atau secara bersama-sama. Penelitian berlangsung selama ±60 hari (Oktober – Desember 2019) di kebun percontohan Badan Penyuluhan Pertanian Bulango Timur Kabupaten Bone Bolango. Penelitian disusun dalam Rancangan Acak Kelompok yang terdiri atas 4 perlakuan (S0: Kontrol, S1: Air Rendaman Kotoran Kambing, S2: Air kotoran Ikan Lele dan S3: Air Rendaman Kotoran Kambing + Air Kotoran Ikan Lele) dan 3 kali ulangan.  Parameter pengamatan adalah jumlah daun, bobot segar panen, bobot konsumsi, bobot akar dan volume akar.  Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemberian air rendaman kotoran kambing yang diberikan bersama dengan air kotoran ikan lele memberikan hasil terbaik dan berpengaruh nyata pada parameter bobot segar panen, bobot konsumsi, bobot akar dan volume akar dan tidak berpengaruh nyata pada jumlah daun selada.
