PENGARUH DOSIS PUPUK GUANO DAN BEBERAPA JENIS MULSA TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DANM HASIL TANAMAN KENTANG (Solanum tuberosum L.)

Kentang adalah salah satu jenis komoditi hortikultura yang penting karena kaya akan karbohidrat dan dapat digunakan sebagai pengganti bahan makanan pokok. Di indonesia kentang sudah dijadikan bahan pangan alternatif terutama dalam pemenuhan gizi dan pangan masyarakat indonesia di samping beras. Penelitian ini telah dilakukan di Jorong Galagah, Kanagarian Alahan Panjang, Kecamatan Lembah Gumanti, Kabupaten Solok, Sumatera Barat dari bulan Maret sampai Juni 2018. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mendapatkan interaksi terbaik antara pemberian pupuk guano dan penggunaan beberapa jenis mulsa terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil tanaman kentang, mendapatkan pengaruh dosis pupuk guano terbaik terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil tanaman kentang, mendapatkan jenis mulsa yang terbaik terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil tanaman kentang. Rancangan yang digunakan yaitu Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) pola faktorial dengan 3 ulangan. Faktor pertama adalah pupuk guano (0, 3, 6 dan 9 ton/ha) dan faktor kedua adalah mulsa plastik hitam perak dan mulsa plastik hitam. Data dianalisis secara statistik dengan uji F pada taraf nyata 5%, apabila F hitung lebih besar dari F tabel maka dilanjutkan dengan Uji Duncan’s New Multiple Range Tes (DNMRT) pada taraf 5%. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tidak ada pengaruh antara pemberian pupuk guano dan penggunaan beberapa jenis mulsa terhadap tinggi tanaman, jumlah daun, dan diameter umbi terkecil. Dosis pupuk guano 9 ton/ha memberikan pengaruh terbaik terhadap jumlah umbi, jumlah cabang, dan diameter umbi terbesar. Jenis mulsa plastik hitam memberikan pengaruh terbaik terhadap jumlah umbi, diameter umbi terbesar, bobot umbi pertanaman, bobot umbi perpetak, dan bobot umbi per hektar.

Gestational weight gain charts for different body mass index groups for women in Europe, North America, and Oceania

BackgroundGestational weight gain differs according to pre-pregnancy body mass index and is related to the risks of adverse maternal and child health outcomes. Gestational weight gain charts for women in different pre-pregnancy body mass index groups enable identification of women and offspring at risk for adverse health outcomes. We aimed to construct gestational weight gain reference charts for underweight, normal weight, overweight, and grades 1, 2 and 3 obese women and to compare these charts with those obtained in women with uncomplicated term pregnancies.MethodsWe used individual participant data from 218,216 pregnant women participating in 33 cohorts from Europe, North America, and Oceania. Of these women, 9065 (4.2%), 148,697 (68.1%), 42,678 (19.6%), 13,084 (6.0%), 3597 (1.6%), and 1095 (0.5%) were underweight, normal weight, overweight, and grades 1, 2, and 3 obese women, respectively. A total of 138, 517 women from 26 cohorts had pregnancies with no hypertensive or diabetic disorders and with term deliveries of appropriate for gestational age at birth infants. Gestational weight gain charts for underweight, normal weight, overweight, and grade 1, 2, and 3 obese women were derived by the Box-Cox t method using the generalized additive model for location, scale, and shape.ResultsWe observed that gestational weight gain strongly differed per maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index group. The median (interquartile range) gestational weight gain at 40weeks was 14.2kg (11.4-17.4) for underweight women, 14.5kg (11.5-17.7) for normal weight women, 13.9kg (10.1-17.9) for overweight women, and 11.2kg (7.0-15.7), 8.7kg (4.3-13.4) and 6.3kg (1.9-11.1) for grades 1, 2, and 3 obese women, respectively. The rate of weight gain was lower in the first half than in the second half of pregnancy. No differences in the patterns of weight gain were observed between cohorts or countries. Similar weight gain patterns were observed in mothers without pregnancy complications.ConclusionsGestational weight gain patterns are strongly related to pre-pregnancy body mass index. The derived charts can be used to assess gestational weight gain in etiological research and as a monitoring tool for weight gain during pregnancy in clinical practice.Peer reviewe

Towards Achieving Benefits of IT Utilization in Collaboration Networks

Abstract. Information technology, with the recent developments towards Future Internet, creates expectations for enterprises and collaboration networks about ease of use and high business benefits. However, the benefits are not an automatic outcome of an IT system take-up. In addition to technical aspects, organizational implementation is needed, with user participation and enterprise collaboration in the process. This paper discusses the challenges and barriers of IT implementation in collaborative networks, with the aim to identify success factors for achieving the benefits. The study is based on previous research and uses the experience of collaboration business cases of COIN project (EU FP7 ICT 216256)
