Hymenoptera Parasitika merupakan kelompok agen pengendali hayati terbesar dan memiliki peranan penting dalam mengendalikan hama di habitat pertanian. Walaupun demikian, informasi mengenai bagaimana parasitoid ini terdapat di habitat pertanian masih sangat sedikit khususnya yang berhubungan dengan kondisi habitat sekitar lahan pertanian dan fenologi dari tanaman pertanian. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mempelajari pengaruh habitat sekitar lahan persawahan dan umur tanaman padi terhadap keanekaragaman Hymenoptera Parasitika. Lokasi penelitian merupakan lahan persawahan yang terletak di Desa Carang Pulang, Dramaga, Bogor. Lahan persawahan dibedakan menjadi empat blok yang merepresentasikan berbagai kondisi habitat dan umur tanaman padi yang berbeda. Di setiap blok dipasang enam perangkap kuning (dengan jarak minimal 20 meter) dan satu perangkap malaise. Pengambilan contoh serangga dilakukan setiap minggu dari umur 6 hingga 12 minggu setelah tanam. Melalui penelitian ini, berhasil dikoleksi 1.833 individu Ordo Hymenoptera (tanpa semut) yang terdiri dari 9 superfamili, 23 famili, dan 216 spesies. Hymenoptera Parasitika ditemukan lebih melimpah (96%) dan lebih beranekaragam (84%) dibandingkan kelompok Aculeata. Kondisi habitat sekitar lahan persawahan (blok) dan umur tanaman padi berpengaruh terhadap keane-karagaman Hymenoptera Parasitika. Terdapat hubungan positif antara umur tanaman padi dengan kekayaan spesies Hymenoptera Parasitika.

Agricultural intensification cause negative effect to insect diversity including beneficial insect such as natural enemies and pollinators. Habitat management through habitat heterogeneity is an alternative approach to protect insect diversity in agriculture area. In this study, we investigated the effect of habitat heterogeneity integrated with different age of crop plant in urban agricultural landscape to the ant diversity. The field research was conducted in agricultural area in Carang Pulang Village, Dramaga, Bogor. In around 6 ha area of rice field, grouped into four blocks which each block has different habitat condition and age of rice plant. In bunds of each block were put six pitfall traps with minimum distance 20 meter from each other. Ants were collected weekly from 6 until 12 weeks after planting to standardize the bunds condition. In total 22 species from 4 subfamilies of ants were recorded from this research. Iridomyrmex sp.01 and Odontoponera sp.01 are the common species which always found in each block and in different age of rice plant. There are no correlation between the distance of pitfall traps and similarity of ant species. In addition, habitat conditions surrounding rice field (block) significantly effect to the ant diversity. However, age of rice plant have no effect to the ant diversity.

Inflammation is one of the immune system's main responses to infection and irritation. One of the medicinal plants that can be used as anti-inflammatory is African leaves because there have flavonoid compounds. Flavonoid compounds have anti-inflammatory effects that can regulate arachidonic acid metabolism by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipooxygenase activity.This study aims to determine the effectiveness and determine the effective dose of African leaf infusion as anti-inflammatory in sparague dawley strain  induced carrageenan male white rats. The method used is measurement of udema with subplantar 1% carrageenan induction.Test animals used were 20 male rats divided into 5 groups. Each group consisted of 4 rats. Group I as a negative control was given CMC-Na solution, the second group as a positive control was given diclofenac sodium with 1.26 mg/200 gBB body weight, group III, IV and V were given African leaf infusion with three dose ratings namely 100, 150, 200 mg/kgBB bodyweight. The results showed that the infusion of African leaves had Antiinflammatory Activity with dose 200 mg/kg body weight as the most effective dose against inhibition of inflammation.           

Abstrak — Desa Cibadak adalah Desa yang terletak di Kecamatan Ciampea, Kabupaten Bogor.

Berdasarkan masalah ini, Fakultas Matematika dan Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam Universitas Pakuan melakukan kegiatan Pengabdian Masyarakat yang dimulai dengan kegiatan untuk meningkatkan keterampilan ibu rumah tangga di Desa Cibadak untuk menghasilkan industri rumah tangga melalui pelatihan dan pelatihan pendampingan dalam pembuatan Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO). Melalui kegiatan ini, diharapkan ibu rumah tangga tidak hanya memiliki keahlian untuk membuat produk kreatif dari industri rumah tangga tetapi dapat memasarkannya sehingga di masa depan mereka dapat membantu kesejahteraan ekonomi keluarga. Kegiatan telah dilakukan dari tanggal 19 April 2019 hingga 16 Juni 2019. Kegiatan tersebut dihadiri oleh 20 ibu rumah tangga di wilayah Desa Cibadak. Hasil evaluasi dari kegiatan yang telah dilakukan menunjukkan peningkatan keterampilan ibu rumah tangga di Desa Cibadak untuk menghasilkan produksi industri rumah tangga yang diharapkan dapat meningkatkan ekonomi keluarga. Salah satunya adalah peningkatan kemampuan peserta untuk membuat VCO.Abstract — Desa Cibadak is a Desa located in Kecamatan Ciampea, Kabupaten Bogor. One of the obstacles in the economic field in Desa Cibadak is in the industrial aspects, especially the home industry. Based on these problems the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences of Universitas Pakuan carried out Community Service activities which began with activities to improve the skills of housewives in Desa Cibadak to produce home industries through training and mentoring training in making Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO). Through these activities, it is expected that housewives not only have the expertise to make creative products from home industries but can market them so that in the future they can help the family's economic prosperity. Activities have been carried out from the date of April 19, 2019 to June 16, 2019. Activities were attended by 20 housewives in the Desa Cibadak area. The results of the evaluation of the activities that have been carried out indicate an increase in the skills of housewives in Desa Cibadak to produce home industry production which is expected to improve the family economy. One of them is the increase in the ability of participants to make VCO.
