Perbandingan Persentase Brondol di Berbagai Macam Areal di Perkebunan Kelapa Sawit

2024-04-26T11:42:04+07:00

Palm oil productivity is influenced by many factors. One factor is crop rotation. Harvest rotation greatly influences productivity in oil palm plantations. Obstructed harvest rotation causes the number of fruit bunches to increase in an area compared to the weight of fresh fruit bunches (FFB) harvested. The percentage of brondol in oil palm plantations is very important because it will affect the average bushel weight (BJR) and payments to employees for oil palm plantation companies. The decrease in BJR due to the high percentage of brondol will also have an impact on the morale of workers, especially harvesters on oil palm plantations because the harvest base will be higher to get a harvest premium. This research aims to determine the comparison of the percentage of brondol in various areas, namely hilly, lowland and plain areas and to find out the causes of the high percentage of brondol in the treatment blocks. This research uses an agronomic trait survey method by observing secondary data on productivity and percentage of brondol in the last six years, then analyzed using the t test at a level of 5%. This research was carried out at PT. Cahaya Nusa Gemilang (CNG) Kenanga Estate garden, Marau District, Ketapang Regency, West Kalimantan. The results of the analysis show that plain areas have the best productivity and percentage of brondol compared to lowland and hilly areas.

Upaya Mempercepat Kematangan Buah Kopi Arabika dengan Aplikasi Hormon

2024-06-03T14:50:16+07:00

Coffee is a plantation crop with significant economic value, commonly processed into flavorful beverages. Arabica coffee farmers generally face challenges during harvest and post-harvest, particularly with the necessity to pick ripe, red berries. However, during harvest, farmers often do not selectively pick the cherries, resulting in the collection of not only red but also yellowish or green berries. Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are synthetic chemicals that mimic the role of endogenous hormones. This study aims to investigate the interaction between different hormone types and varieties on the ripening of Arabica coffee berries, assess the impact of various hormones on berry maturity, and evaluate the effect of different varieties on the ripening process. The research utilized a completely randomized design (CRD) with two factors: plant growth regulators (PGRs) and coffee varieties. The observed parameters included the number of fruiting nodes per tree, the number of fruits per node, the number of red fruits in the first harvest, the number of red fruits in each subsequent harvest (across three stages), and the weight of green beans per 100 seeds. The analysis revealed no significant interaction between the application of different types of growth regulators (PGRs) and coffee varieties in accelerating the maturation of Arabica coffee berries. Notably, the Yellow Catura variety treated with the growth regulator Ethrel showed a better effect in accelerating berry maturity.
