ANALISIS PERBANDINGAN PENDAPATAN DAN KEUNTUNGAN USAHATANI PADI SISTEM TANAM JAJAR LEGOWO DAN NON JAJAR LEGOWO DI NAGARI KAMBANG TIMUR KECAMATAN LENGAYANG KABUPATEN PESISIR SELATAN

The research objectives are to compare the cultivation technique of the Jajar Legowo and non-Jajar Legowo rice planting systems and compare the income and profits of both rice planting systems in Nagari Kambang Timur, Lengayang Pesisir Selatan District. This research uses a survey method. This study's results indicate differences in implementing Jajar Legowo and non-Jajar Legowo farming systems. The differences are in the planting system, spacing, the number of seeds used, the use of seeds, the use of fertilizers, and the amount of labor. The production of the Jajar Legowo planting system was 5.435,27 kg, higher than the non- Jajar Legowo planting system of 4.646,32 kg. The income obtained by the Jajar Legowo farmers is Rp.18.329.968,39/Ha/MT higher than the non-Jajar Legowo farmers of Rp. 15.505.373,42/Ha/MT. The profit of the Jajar Legowo rice farming system is higher than the non- Jajar Legowo. The average profit of the Jajar Legowo farming system is Rp. 11.903.093,63/ha/MT, while the profit of the non- Jajar Legowo farming system is Rp. 9.947.382,92/ha/MT. For the R/C ratio, both are equally profitable and feasible to run. The R/C Ratio value of rice farming Jajar Legowo planting system is 1.78, which is higher than the non-Jajar Legowo planting system, which is 1.75. Statistical tests show significant differences between the production, income, and profits of the Jajar Legowo farming system and the non-Jajar Legowo farming system. Therefore,  farmers of the non-Jajar Legowo should consider switching to the Jajar Legowo system.INTISARITujuan penelitian ini adalah membandingkan kultur teknis sistem tanam padi jajar legowo dan non jajar legowo dan membandingkan pendapatan dan keuntungan usahatani padi sistem tanam jajar legowo dan non jajar legowo di Nagari Kambang Timur Kecamatan Lengayang Pesisir Selatan.

Improving EFL Students' Vocabulary in a Rural Area through Scrabble with Crossword Picture Puzzle

There are still many EFL students in Indonesia who face struggles in learning English, especially in memorizing vocabulary. This is prominent in particular to students who reside in rural areas, where besides school facilities are limited, motivation is also among the factors for their depleted motivation to learn English. The students in one of the senior high schools in Sabang island, Aceh, Indonesia, still strain when dealing with this subject. To solve the problem, a game insinuated to improve their  vocabulary is the scrabble with crossword picture puzzle. This game demands cooperation of students to work together with their peers in a group in an entertaining way. This research employed the quantitative approach by experimental teaching. The sample of study of were 25 students in the experimental class and 26 students in the control class. Purposive sampling was used in which these two classes had most students with the lowest English scores among the other tenth grade students. The results of the t-score showed that there was a difference between the scores of the pre-test and the post-test of the experimental (4.23) and control classes (3.59). This proved that the used of scrabble with crossword picture puzzle game gave a significant improvement on students’ vocabulary. The application of this game made the students in the experimental class be more active, communicative, and challenging during learning process compared to the control class. &nbsp

TURMERIC EXTRACT POTENTIAL INHIBIT INFLAMMATORY MARKER IN LPS-STIMULATED MARCOPHAGE CELLS

Objective: Inflammation can be induced by microbiological, chemical, physical factors and plays roles in inflammatory diseases. Turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) has been widely used to provide a diverse array of biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, also antioxidant. The Turmeric extract (TE) anti-inflammatory potential was conducted using a Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW264.7 macrophage cell line by inhibiting inflammatory mediators especially IL-6, PGE-2, IL-1β, COX-2, TNF-α, iNOS, also NO level. Methods: The TE safe concentration in LPS-induced macrophage cell line was measured using MTS assay for further assay. The inflammatory markers (IL-6, PGE-2, COX-2, IL-1β, TNF-α, iNOS, NO) were measured using ELISA assay and NO by the nitrate/nitrite colorimetric assay in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cell line. LPS induced inflammatory marker by increasing inflammatory marker (IL-6, PGE-2, COX-2, IL-1β, TNF-α, iNOS, NO). Results: TE with 100 to 25 µg/ml, caused a significant reduction of cells viability, reaching only 30.27 % live cells. TE with lower concentrations (7.5; 5; 2.5 µg/ml) had no cytotoxic effect on macrophage cells (viability 117.31-131.08 %). LPS induction caused an increase in inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, PGE-2, IL-6, COX-2, TNF-α as well as iNOS and NO. Turmeric extract caused the reduction of the inflammatory cytokines in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion: The research resulted that TE has anti-inflammatory activity by decreasing IL-6, PGE-2, COX-2, IL-1β, TNF-α, iNOS, and NO level on LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells
