Lead is an element that is not essential for plants, with a content ranging from 0.1 - 10 µg/kg, and in various plants, it normally ranges from 0.5 - 3.00 µg/kg. This study aims to determine the content of lead (Pb) in soil and rice plants, as well as some of the chemical properties of the soil in the central rice area located in Marga Cinta, Belitang Madang Raya District, East Ogan Komering Ulu, South Sumatra, Indonesia. This study used a detailed survey method with a working map scale of 1:9,000. The paddy field studied covered 96 hectares divided into 6 locations, which were sampled using a random sampling method. Each location had 5 soil drilling points, and composite samples were created. Soil sampling was carried out by augering at a depth of 0-30 cm. The results showed that the content of lead (Pb) in paddy soil ranged from 9.90 – 12.18 µg/g with an average of 10.56 µg/g, while the content of lead (Pb) in rice plants was below the detection limit of the tool, with a value of <0.0002 µg/g. The conclusion from the study was that the content of the heavy metal lead (Pb) in paddy soil and rice plants at the study site was still below the threshold.","PeriodicalId":137730,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Smart Agriculture and Environmental Technology","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127782758","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research material consisted of 80 male turkeys aged 12 weeks with an average weight of 1165 ± 62.24 g, an acidifier consisting of a mixture of lactic acid, propionic acid, and formic acid, and inulin sourced from dahlia tuber extract and the enzyme papain. The feed ingredients used in this study were corn, soybean meal, fish meal, rice bran, premix, CaCO3, lysine, and methionine. The research design used a completely randomized design with 5 treatments and 4 replications. The treatments applied included T0 (control diet/RK), T1 (RK + 1% acidifier), T2 (RK + 1% acidifier + 1.2% inulin), T3 (RK + 1% acidifier + 0.5% papain enzyme), and T4 (RK + 1% acidifier + 1.2% inulin + 0.5% papain enzyme). Parameters measured included heterophiles, lymphocytes, leukocytes, and total plasma protein. Data were analyzed using variance at the 5% level and Duncan's test of significant differences at the 5% level. The results showed that the addition of acidifier with inulin and papain enzymes had a significant effect (p<0.05) on the differential leukocytes (heterophiles, lymphocytes, leukocytes, and total plasma protein). The conclusion is that the addition of 1% acidifier + 1.2% inulin + 0.5% papain enzyme (T4) can maintain the health condition of the body, as observed from the differential leukocytes in male turkeys during the growth period.","PeriodicalId":137730,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Smart Agriculture and Environmental Technology","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114799953","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this research was to study the species of Trigona bees (Trigona spp.) visiting various flowering plants and the species of flowering plants visited by these bees. The research method involved purposive sampling and direct observation in the field. Observations were made by identifying bee species present on several flower plants. Trigona bees predominantly used plants in the flowering phase as a food source due to their abundant nectar and pollen production. The field observations revealed 11 species of flowering plants favored by Trigona bees, namely Kembang kertas (Zinnia elegans), Jambu air (Syzygium aqueum), Air mata pengantin (Antigonon leptopus), Kelengkeng (Dimocarpus longan), Melinjo (Gnetum gnemon), Cabai (Capsicum annuum), Seri (Muntingia calabura), Palem (Dypsis lutescens), Matahari (Helianthus annuus), Santos lemon (Xanthostemon chrysanthus), and Belimbing (Averrhoa carambola).

Therefore, it is necessary to assess the fertility of the paddy soil for rice cultivation. Site-specific balanced fertilization is determined based on soil test results that represent the in situ soil chemical properties. This study aims to analyze the fertility level of paddy fields and determine the optimal amounts of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) fertilizers for rice growth, considering the soil fertility status in Marga Cinta, Belitang Madang Raya District, Ogan Komering Ulu Timur of South Sumatra, Indonesia. The study employed a random sampling method, with a total of 6 samples collected by drilling at a depth of 0 - 30 cm, and then composited. The results revealed that the fertility of the paddy soil at the study site was relatively low, with an average pH of 5.32, organic carbon content (C-Organic) of 0.67%, cation exchange capacity (CEC) of 9.85 cmol/kg, base saturation of 21.05%, total nitrogen (N-total) of 0.10%, available phosphorus (P-available) of 1.87 mg/kg, and exchangeable potassium (K-exchangeability) of 0.10 cmol/kg.
