Toraja is a popular tourist destination in the sacred highlands of South Sulawesi, Indonesia. It has been widely known for its unique traditional culture. The combination of nature, agriculture, and culture is landscape beauty as area potential tourism. However, the management of tourism objects and attractions has not given much attention to the quality of the landscape aesthetic. This paper shows the results of scenic beauty assessment of culture-based landscape in the North Toraja Regency. Field survey and analysis using Scenic Beauty Estimation (SBE) were used as the method of this research. The results showed that the SBE score represented by 40 landscape pictures ranged from -42 to 234. The landscape that achieved the highest SBE score of 234 was Lolai To’tombi, while the landscape with the lowest SBE score of -42 was Limbong Agrotourism. The preferred landscape has a unique characteristic, in order, having a harmonious blend of hardscape elements and vegetation, and the presence of green open space or blue sky in the landscape. Managers of tourism objects need to consider the character of the landscape in developing tourism objects and attractions to improve the quality of landscape beauty.
Indonesia currently does not use a systematic method of managing electronic waste (e-waste). The informal sector handles e-waste mostly without regard to the environment or public health. Establishing a national collection system favored by the community is the most challenging problem. Even though the waste bank system (WB) does not collect e-waste, it can provide a solution because it is well known as a recycling program by Indonesian citizens. This study proposes a WB system model for e-waste collection to interact with other stakeholders in DKI Jakarta, Field research and interviews with several essential informants were conducted. E-waste samples were identified to determine the composition of the current management and proposed an e-waste bank model as a sustainable circular economy implementation. E-waste has enormous potential for recycling, but it also has hazardous materials if not recycled properly. The government must make national regulations on e-waste management and develop cooperation between local governments, industry/producers, recycling industries, and the community to build a WB-based e-waste collection system.
The research aims to study the effect of various doses of NPK fertilizer and humic acid on the growth and production of purple waxy corn. The study was conducted in Bilonga Village, Bontonompo District, Gowa Regency, from September to December 2018. The method used was a two-factor factorial experiment and a randomized block design as the environmental design. The first factor was NPK fertilization consisting of four levels, namely Control, 250, 300, and 350 kg ha−1. Meanwhile, the second factor was humic acid which consists of three levels, namely 0, 15, and 20 kg ha−1 resulted in total of 12 treatment combinations that are repeated three times. The results show that NPK fertilization of 350 kg ha−1 resulted in the highest production of the purple waxy corn of 2.95 ton ha−1. The application of humic acid had no significant effect on the growth and production of the purple waxy corn, but the humic acid affected the increase in soil pH and cation exchanges capacity.
A study was carried out to study the response of katokkon seeds to invigoration treatment using atonic substances, phosphoric acid, and KCl. This research was conducted in the form of an experiment using a randomized block design (RBD) 21. Invigoration treatments were given consisting of a combination of atonic substances, phosphoric acid and KCl with different immersion times. The results showed that the invigoration treatment package on the seeds that gave the best effect on the germination and vigor of the chili seeds was the best percentage value of sprouts, namely the package with atonic solution with a soaking time of 6 hours (75%), the percentage value of the vigor index, namely the package with long atonic solution immersion for 6 hours (95.00). Plumula length with a package consisting of a 6 hour immersion phosphoric acid solution with a plumule length (0.24 cm), a radicle length with a package consisting of 3 hours immersion atonic solution with a radicle length (0.51 cm), plant height with a package consisting of acidic solution Phosphate immersion 3 hours with high (9.49 cm), and long roots with a package consisting of a 12 hour long immersion atonic solution (14.02 cm).
The latest IAARD’s innovation for stepping up in the productivity of red chilies is called the Double Fold Production (Proliga). Before this program started to be transferred, it was necessary to determine the existing features of the red chili cultivation technology at the study site of the Proliga program. The purpose of this study was to analyze the existing cultivation technology performance, productivity, constraints and to analyze red chili farming, and to formulate a strategy to improve the cultivation technology innovation package. The research was carried out through a structured survey of red chili farmers in Bukit Village, Karo Regency from August 2017 to February 2018. The results of the study found that the productivity of red chili in Karo District was stagnant for a decade, namely 8.28 t/ha. Area per house-hold was 0.060.15 ha. The average B/C value =-0.13. This study concludes that the main strategy to achieve a jump in productivity (from 8.25 t/ha to > 16.5 t/ha) through the application of Proliga technology innovation in Karo District was the use of healthy seeds, site-specific fertilization and Bemisia border installation since the beginning of planting.
