ESTATE CROPS INFO – So far, the attack of several types of borer pests in this period of young plants in Indonesia has not received serious attention. Whereas the attack has the potential to significantly reduce the productivity and quality of sugarcane. Several factors can affect the development of pest populations in the field, one of […]

The use of bud […]
Continue ReadingESTATE CROPS INFO – The Ministry of Agriculture has rolled out ratoon unloading and ratoon care programs, but the realization in the field is still low. For example in Malang Regency, in 2015 the realization of the ratoon unloading program only reached about 38%. The main obstacle is limited capital, given that farmers feel that with intensive […]

The results of the review show that the existence of sugar as one of the basic needs of the Indonesian people is faced with the gap between production (2.5 million tons / year) and consumption (5.7 million). […]

This study was aimed to determine genetic stability based on SSR marker analysis of six varieties of sugarcane subcultured in regeneration media. It was conducted at the ICABIOGRAD Molecular Biology Laboratory, Bogor, from May 2015 to October […]
Continue ReadingESTATE CROPS NEWS – There were more than 30 diseases have been recorded since sugarcane grown for sugar in Indonesia. And yet, only few diseases considered as major diaseases since they decreased productivity up to 20% and sugar content significantly. They were: sereh caused by Phytoplasm, pokkah boeng caused by Fusarium moniliformae, leafscald caused by Xanthomonas albineans, […]

However, the development of sugarcane farming is constrained by limited cultivation land and low productivity of sugarcane. The government continues to improve farm productivity and efficiency through the application of technology, optimization of the use of agricultural tools and machinery, production input assistance, […]

Peningkatan pendapatan terjadi karena produksi tebu yang dihasilkan lebih tinggi dibandingkan tanam sistem tanam tunggal, double planting maupun petani non kopetani non kooperator mencapai 1,44 dengan BC ratio 3,02. Dari hasil perhitungan analisis usahatani tersebut diharapkan […]
Continue ReadingICECRD PUBLICATIONS – The needs of sugarcane continue to increase so extensification of farming is needed to meet the demand. However, the available land is the sub-optimal land such as saline land. For this reason, salinity tolerant varieties are needed. To used create sugarcane varieties that are tolerant to salinity stress induction mutation technology using […]
Continue ReadingESTATE CROPS INFO – Creating of varieties can be done through mutation breeding at the cellular level, combined with in vitro selection. This research was conducted at the UPBUP from January until December 2017 to find out colchicine concentration and treatment duration which effectively produced tolerant mutant through in vitro drought selection using polyethylene glycol (PEG).
