PEMBERDAYAAN PEREMPUAN DENGAN BUDIDAYA SAYURAN HIDROPONIK SISTEM RAKIT APUNG PADA LAHAN PEKARANGAN UNTUK MENDUKUNG DESA GUNUNGPRING MENJADI DESA WISATA

Utilization of home yards for plant cultivation is an alternative in maintaining family food security. Even a narrow yard of land can be used for plant cultivation. One of the cultivation techniques that are not expensive, easy to maintain and can also take advantage of a narrow area such as a house yard is hydroponics, which can also use fishponds for making floating raft hydroponics. Empowerment of women is important to support the success of this activity. In the village of Gunungpring, the women in the village that have been formed do not yet have optimal performance, especially in the use of their home yards for hydroponic vegetable cultivation. Therefore, this service activity was carried out to optimize the performance of women in the village of Gunungpring in cultivating with the floating raft hydroponic technique. With the empowerment of women, especially the women who are members of the Dasa Wisma, it is hoped that hydroponic plant cultivation activities with floating raft systems can develop. The resulting product in the form of hydroponic vegetables can be consumed alone or sold to tourists/pilgrims who visit the village. The method used to achieve this goal is to provide counseling, training, making hydroponic samples/demonstrations of floating raft vegetable plants carried out on one member of the Dasa Wisma, and aiding in hydroponic vegetable cultivation. The enthusiasm of partners in this activity was very high from the beginning to the end of the training, even now partners are continuing their activities by planting hydroponic vegetables on a floating raft system on their yards or in their own fishponds. This activity is expected to be sustainable so that it can fulfill/increase the nutritional value of the community, increase community income, and support the realization of Gunungpring Village into a tourist village

This research entitled Maintaining Growth of Cassava Leaves (Manihot esculenta Cranzt) through Mulching, Types of Cultivars, and Buds Cutting Intervals. The experiment was carried out in Balesari Village, Windusari District, Magelang Regency within six months. The aim is to study the growth patterns of cassava leaf shoots and to collect factual practice about the cultivation of cassava leaf which was not yet widely available. A faktorial experiment (2x2x3) which was repeated three times in a completely randomized design. This experiment tested the use of black silver plastic mulch, two cassava Rengganis cultivars, and Indung, with three levels of bud cutting intervals 45, 50 and 55 days after planting. Each treatment was repplicated three times. The results of this experiment indicate that the growth of shoots, namely the weight and length of buds formed is strongly influenced by the type of mulch, cultivar and shoot cutting intervals. Shoot shoots that grow with plastic mulch are better and shoot cutting intervals can also improve shoot shoots. While shoot lengths that grow on Rengganis cultivars are longer than Indung cultivars, there are interactions betweenplastic mulch, cultivars and cutting interval

Effects of the phytoestrogen genistein on the development of the reproductive system of Sprague Dawley rats

OBJECTIVES: Genistein is known to influence reproductive system development through its binding affinity for estrogen receptors. The present study aimed to further explore the effect of Genistein on the development of the reproductive system of experimental rats. METHODS: Eighteen post-weaning female Sprague Dawley rats were divided into the following groups: (i) a control group that received vehicle (distilled water and Tween 80); (ii) a group treated with 10 mg/kg body weight (BW) of Genistein (Gen 10); and (iii) a group treated with a higher dose of Genistein (Gen 100). The rats were treated daily for three weeks from postnatal day 22 (P22) to P42. After the animals were sacrificed, blood samples were collected, and the uteri and ovaries were harvested and subjected to light microscopy and immunohistochemical study. RESULTS: A reduction of the mean weekly BW gain and organ weights (uteri and ovaries) were observed in the Gen 10 group compared to the control group; these findings were reversed in the Gen 100 group. Follicle stimulating hormone and estrogen levels were increased in the Gen 10 group and reduced in the Gen 100 group. Luteinizing hormone was reduced in both groups of Genistein-treated animals, and there was a significant difference between the Gen 10 and control groups (p<0.05). These findings were consistent with increased atretic follicular count, a decreased number of corpus luteum and down-regulation of estrogen receptors-a in the uterine tissues of the Genistein-treated animals compared to the control animals. CONCLUSION: Post-weaning exposure to Genistein could affect the development of the reproductive system of ovarian-intact experimental rats because of its action on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis by regulating hormones and estrogen receptors
