Pemanfaatan Limbah Bonggol Jagung Menjadi Pakan Ternak (Silase) di Desa Sendangmulyo, Kecamatan Bulu, Kabupaten Rembang

Abstract

Sendangmulyo Village is one of the villages in Bulu District, Rembang Regency, which is located on the border of Blora Regency. One of the agricultural commodities that are widely cultivated in Sendangmulyo Village is corn. However, the use of this corn commodity is generally still limited to the seeds, while the cob is discarded and instead pollutes the environment. Seeing this problem, the IPB Rembang KKN-T group held a webinar as well as the practice of making silage made from corn cobs. The purpose of this program is to provide an understanding to the people of Sendangmulyo Village regarding the utilization of corncob waste into silage. The webinar was held online through the zoom meeting platform for the general public, then continued with the practice of making silage together for the people of Sendangmulyo Village. The materials used in making silage are corn cobs and elephant grass that have been chopped, bran, molasses, and water. Quality silage can be seen from physical characteristics such as color, texture, aroma, and the presence of mushrooms. Based on the results of observations, the silage made has a light brown color, is not runny and has a slightly sour smell but there is still a little fungus so that the silage results can be classified as poor. The implementation of the webinar and the direct practice of making silage from corn cobs received a positive response from the webinar participants and the people of Sendangmulyo Village. The disadvantage of this program is that in the practice of making silage the number of participants is limited due to the PPKM period so that the delivery of information has not been widely conveyed.

PENGARUH KOMPOSISI MEDIA TANAM DAN UKURAN POLYBAG TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN HASIL PANEN SELADA MERAH (Lactuca sativa L.)

“…Arang sekam padi merupakan bahan yang memiliki kandungan hara makro (N, P, K, dan Corganik) yang tinggi (Anjarwati et al, 2017). Selain itu, arang sekam padi juga dapat menigkatkan porositas media, mempertahankan kelembaban media, mengatur pH media, memacu pertumbuhan mikroorganisme, dan menekan pertumbuhan mikroba patogen (Sofhia et al, 2020). Hasil penelitian hidroponik yang dilaporkan oleh Manullang et al (2019) dan Sudewi et al (2022) menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan arang sekam padi pada media tanam menghasilan pertumbuhan tanaman selada yang lebih baik dibanding penggunaan bahan substat lainnya.…”

Fermented Elephant Grass in Anticipation of Climate Change

“…These plant seeds will usually grow in about a few weeks-about three months. [11] to maintain the availability of cattle feed at all times. Making silage feed [9] aims to extend the shelf life of forage feed and maintain nutrients in the forage feed.…”

Optimalisasi Ruang Hijau: Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Melalui Vertical Garden

“…Pengoptimalan lahan di Desa Dringu dapat dicapai melalui pendekatan berbasis masyarakat yang menggabungkan inovasi pertanian dan perencanaan ruang. Program pemberdayaan masyarakat untuk memanfaatkan lahan sempit, seperti konsep vertical garden, dapat menjadi solusi yang memadai (Dewadi et al 2022;Dina et al 2023;Lubis et al 2023;Radilla and Istiqomah 2020). Dengan demikian, pendekatan ini tidak hanya menciptakan ruang hijau di lahan terbatas tetapi juga meningkatkan ketahanan pangan dan ekonomi masyarakat.…”
