This study is motivated by the importance of economic growth as a key indicator of regional development performance and public welfare improvement. Economic growth reflects the ability of local governments to manage resources and implement effective fiscal policies. This research aims to analyze the development and the influence of Local Own-Source Revenue, General Allocation Fund, and Special Allocation Fund on the economic growth of regencies/cities in Jambi Province during the period 2020–2024. The study employs a quantitative approach combined with descriptive analysis. Secondary data are obtained from official publications of relevant institutions and analyzed using panel data regression with the Common Effect Model approach. The results indicate that Local Own-Source Revenue and the General Allocation Fund have a significant effect on economic growth, showing that the increase in regional revenue and fiscal transfers contributes to economic performance. Meanwhile, the Special Allocation Fund does not have a significant effect, indicating that its allocation may not be optimally utilized in stimulating regional economic activities. These findings imply that strengthening regional fiscal capacity and improving the effectiveness of fund allocation are essential to promote sustainable economic growth. The study also highlights the need for better policy coordination and efficient financial management at the regional level to reduce disparities and enhance development outcomes.  

Stunting merupakan masalah kesehatan masyarakat yang masih menjadi prioritas di Indonesia dan dipengaruhi oleh berbagai faktor, termasuk faktor lingkungan. Pengelolaan sampah rumah tangga yang tidak aman berpotensi meningkatkan risiko penyakit infeksi yang dapat mengganggu pertumbuhan anak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan antara pengelolaan sampah rumah tangga dengan kejadian stunting pada balita di Desa Ngadirojo Kidul, Kecamatan Ngadirojo, Kabupaten Wonogiri. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain observasional analitik dengan pendekatan case control. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 72 balita yang terdiri dari 36 kasus (stunting) dan 36 kontrol (tidak stunting) dengan perbandingan 1:1. Data dikumpulkan melalui pengukuran status gizi berdasarkan indikator tinggi badan menurut umur serta wawancara menggunakan kuesioner untuk menilai praktik pengelolaan sampah rumah tangga. Analisis data dilakukan secara bivariat untuk mengetahui hubungan antara variabel paparan dan kejadian stunting. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar keluarga belum menerapkan pengelolaan sampah yang aman, dan terdapat hubungan antara pengelolaan sampah rumah tangga dengan kejadian stunting pada balita. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa praktik pengelolaan sampah rumah tangga merupakan salah satu faktor lingkungan yang berpotensi berkontribusi terhadap kejadian stunting. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan intervensi berbasis lingkungan untuk mendukung upaya percepatan penurunan stunting di tingkat desa.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Kemasantani Village have considerable potential in developing cassava-based products using MOCAF flour, particularly Antari chips. However, limited brand identity, unattractive packaging, and the underutilization of digital marketing have constrained product competitiveness and revenue growth. This community service program aimed to strengthen branding and optimize digital marketing strategies to support MSME revenue growth. A qualitative participatory approach was employed through surveys, interviews, observations, documentation, and direct assistance in brand identity development, packaging redesign, and social media management. The results indicate improvements in product image, packaging attractiveness, and market reach through digital platforms. The integrated application of branding and digital marketing successfully increased consumer engagement and led to an approximate 35% increase in MSME revenue within a three-month period. These findings suggest that strategic branding and digital marketing are effective approaches for enhancing competitiveness and ensuring the sustainability of locally based MSMEs in rural areas.

This study aims to examine the level of regional financial independence and various financial ratios in assessing the performance of regency and city governments in the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) for the 2019–2024 period. The method employed is a descriptive qualitative approach supported by quantitative data in the form of Budget Realization Reports (LRA). Performance measurement was conducted through several key indicators, including independence, effectiveness, efficiency, and growth ratios. The results indicate that the level of fiscal independence remains relatively low, characterized by a high dependency on transfer funds from the central government. On the other hand, the effectiveness ratio shows good achievement, as most regions were able to meet their revenue targets, particularly from Local Own-Source Revenue (PAD). However, the efficiency of expenditure management remains uneven across regions. Furthermore, the revenue growth ratio shows fluctuations influenced by economic conditions, including the impact of the pandemic. Overall, regional financial performance still needs to be improved, especially in strengthening fiscal independence and optimizing PAD potential.

The discipline of Qur'anic Studies (‘Ulūm al-Qur’ān) has experienced a significant paradigm shift from the classical textual-normative approach to a modern contextual and hermeneutic framework. This systematic literature review aims to map the dynamics of this growth by evaluating the ontological, epistemological, and teleological boundaries of Qur'anic studies within contemporary Islamic scholarship. Utilizing a qualitative Systematic Literature Review (SLR) design, data were gathered from reputable academic journals published over the last decade and analyzed through thematic synthesis. The findings reveal four major transformations. First, an ontological redefinition where the Qur'an is no longer viewed merely as a static written text, but as a performative living discourse, necessitating a strict demarcation between the Qur'an and Hadith to prevent the sacralization of the profane. Second, an epistemological reconstruction that shifts the discipline from mechanistic auxiliary sciences to a holistic-interdisciplinary methodology integrating social sciences and humanities. Third, an expansion of scope beyond textual analysis into applied realities, notably the emergence of Living Qur'an and Digital Qur'an sub-disciplines responding to the disruption of religious authority. Fourth, a teleological shift where the ultimate goal of studying the Qur'an transitions from individual piety to social transformation, serving as an intellectual defense mechanism against post-truth populism and promoting emancipatory theology. The implication of this study suggests that contemporary Qur'anic studies must proactively offer ethical frameworks for global challenges rather than merely preserving historical dogma

Basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) is a horticultural plant widely used as a fresh vegetable and herbal ingredient. Efforts to increase basil growth and production can be achieved through environmentally friendly organic fertilization, one of which is the use of cow manure and eco- enzymes. The purpose of this study was to determine the response due to the provision of eco enzyme and cow manure on the growth and production of basil plants. This research method used a factorial randomized block design (RAK) with two factors. The first factor was the provision of cow manure with 4 levels, namely S0 = no treatment, S1 = 200g, S2 = 300g, S3 = 400g. The second factor was the provision of EE with 4 levels, namely E0 = no treatment, E1 = 10ml, E2 = 20ml, E3 = 30ml. The observation parameters of this study were plant height, stem diameter, number of primary branches, fresh weight, root length, flowering age. The results of this study are expected to provide recommendations for effective organic fertilization to increase basil plant productivity sustainably.

Latar belakang penelitian ini berakar pada fenomena kemajuan yang tidak merata di antara indikator pembangunan di Sumatera Utara, di mana Indeks Pembangunan Manusia (IPM), meskipun diklasifikasikan dalam kategori “tinggi”, belum secara konsisten berkontribusi pada penurunan tingkat pengangguran. Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji pengaruh IMB, tingkat kemiskinan, dan tingkat pengangguran terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi di Provinsi Sumatera Utara. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kuantitatif dengan analisis regresi linier berganda menggunakan data deret waktu dari tahun 2010 hingga 2025 yang bersumber dari BPS. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa secara simultan, IPM, kemiskinan, dan pengangguran secara signifikan mempengaruhi pertumbuhan ekonomi daerah. Secara parsial, IMB memiliki pengaruh positif dan signifikan, menunjukkan bahwa investasi dalam kualitas modal manusia meningkatkan produktivitas ekonomi. Sebaliknya, baik tingkat kemiskinan maupun tingkat pengangguran terbuka menunjukkan pengaruh negatif dan signifikan, yang menyiratkan bahwa peningkatan variabel-variabel ini cenderung menghambat ekspansi ekonomi. Lebih lanjut, variabel independen yang dimasukkan dalam model ini menjelaskan 49,49% variasi pertumbuhan ekonomi, sedangkan proporsi sisanya dijelaskan oleh faktor eksternal di luar cakupan penelitian ini. Hasil ini menyoroti pentingnya penerapan kebijakan yang menyelaraskan pengembangan sumber daya manusia dengan tuntutan pasar tenaga kerja untuk mengatasi masalah pengangguran terdidik.

This study aimed to determine the effect of coffee husk waste application and shallot extract soaking on the growth of cat’s whiskers (Orthosiphon aristatus) cuttings. The research employed a factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD) consisting of two factors with 48 experimental plots. The first factor was the application of coffee husk waste, symbolized as “L,” with four treatment levels: L0 = 0 g/polybag (without coffee husk waste), L1 = 75 g/polybag, L2 = 150 g/polybag, and L3 = 225 g/polybag. The second factor was shallot extract soaking, symbolized as “B,” with four treatment levels: B0 = 0 ml/L of water, B1 = 5 ml/L of water, B2 = 10 ml/L of water, and B3 = 15 ml/L of water. Thus, there were 16 treatment combinations with three replications. The observed parameters included time to shoot emergence, number of shoots, plant height, number of leaves, leaf area, and survival percentage. The results showed that the application of coffee husk waste and shallot extract soaking had no significant effect on the growth of cat’s whiskers (Orthosiphon aristatus) cuttings across all observed parameters.

Exchange rates are a crucial indicator in an open economy, playing a significant role in influencing international trade, investment flows, and overall macroeconomic stability. This study aims to analyze the impact of rupiah exchange rate fluctuations on Indonesia’s economic growth during the period 2014–2023. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using secondary data obtained from official publications of Statistics Indonesia and Bank Indonesia. The main variables analyzed include the rupiah exchange rate against the United States dollar and Indonesia’s economic growth. The findings indicate that exchange rate movements are closely related to economic growth dynamics, particularly through international trade mechanisms, production costs, and the stability of the real sector. Depreciation of the exchange rate tends to enhance export competitiveness, but it may also trigger inflation due to rising import prices. Conversely, appreciation can help control inflation but may weaken export competitiveness. Therefore, maintaining exchange rate stability is essential to support sustainable economic growth and strengthen national economic resilience.

This study aims to analyze the factors that influence economic growth. Economic growth is an important indicator used to measure the success of a country's development because it reflects the increasing capacity of an economy to produce goods and services. This research uses a descriptive approach by examining several factors affecting economic growth, including investment, labor, unemployment, and international trade. The results show that investment plays a significant role in increasing production capacity and encouraging the development of industry and infrastructure. Labor also contributes to economic productivity through the production of goods and services. On the other hand, a high unemployment rate can hinder economic growth because part of the labor force is not absorbed into productive activities. In addition, international trade through export and import activities can support economic growth by expanding markets for domestic products and fulfilling the need for raw materials and technology in the production process. Therefore, economic development policies need to consider these factors to achieve sustainable economic growth and improve public welfare

Based on data from FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of The United Nations), it has been predicted that the aquaculture subsector will become one of the most relied-upon resources in the future, especially in meeting food needs, fish-based nutritional needs, and empowering the global community's economy (FAO, 2016). Catfish is a type of freshwater fish that can grow and develop well because it can be cultivated in limited land areas (Marsela, 2018). The frequency of feeding is one of the important factors that need to be considered in catfish farming. To determine the effect of different feeding frequencies on the absolute weight of dumbo catfish, a study was conducted using an experimental design called the Completely Randomized Design (CRD), with 3 treatments and a total of 8 replications. The test treatments were as follows: Treatment 1 (feeding twice a day), Treatment 2 (feeding three times a day), and Treatment 3 (feeding four times a day). The results of the ANOVA test showed a significant value of 0.000 (P < 0.05), indicating a significant difference in each of the different feeding frequencies. The analysis of the Least Significant Difference (LSD) test at a 5% significance level also showed that the relationship between each treatment had a significant value of 0.000 (P < 0.05). The average absolute weight of the fish for Treatment 1 was 12.99 grams, for Treatment 2 was 15.03 grams, and for Treatment 3 was 17.03 grams. The highest growth in the absolute weight of dumbo catfish fry occurred in Treatment 3 (feeding four times a day).

Chrysanthemum is an ornamental plant widely cultivated in Indonesia, with various varieties that have unique and attractive characteristics. Each variety responds differently to changes in light intensity. Providing shade can help regulate the light intensity received by chrysanthemum seedlings during the acclimatization stage. This study aimed to determine the best shade percentage for the acclimatization growth of three chrysanthemum varieties. The research was conducted in the screenhouse of the Faculty of Agriculture, Tanjungpura University, for three months, from October to December 2024. The experiment used a Split Plot Design (Split Plot) with a Randomized Block Design (RBD), consisting of two factors: shade percentage and variety. There were three levels of shade and three chrysanthemum varieties, resulting in nine treatment combinations. Each treatment was repeated three times, with each replication consisting of three sample plants, resulting in 81 experimental units. The shade percentages used were 25% (n1), 50% (n2), and 75% (n3), and the varieties tested were Xanne (v1), Suciyono (v2), and Pinka Pinky (v3). Observed variables included plant survival rate, plant height, stem diameter, internode length, number of internodes, number of flower primordia, leaf color changes, along with supporting data such as temperature, humidity, and light intensity. The results showed that 50% shade was effective in promoting plant height and the number of flower primordia in the three varieties: Xanne, Suciyono, and Pinka Pinky. The Suciyono variety exhibited good vegetative and generative growth under all shade percentages.

This study aims to evaluate the growth performance of KUB chickens fed with a combination of fermented agricultural waste, specifically Maggot BSF (Hermetia illucens) and Azolla microphylla. A total of 96 KUB chickens aged 30 days were used in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with four treatments and four replications. The treatments consisted of a basal diet substituted with the fermented waste combination at levels of 0% (P0), 5% (P1), 10% (P2), and 15% (P3). Parameters observed included feed consumption, body weight gain (BWG), and Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR). The results showed that increasing the level of waste substitution significantly affected feed consumption due to the bulky nature of the fiber, yet body weight gain remained stable across all treatments. The FCR values ranging from 3.21 to 3.25 indicated that the high-quality protein from Maggot BSF effectively compensated for the reduced feed intake. It is concluded that the substitution of fermented agricultural waste up to 15% (P3) is an optimal and efficient formulation to maintain the growth performance of KUB chickens.

This study aims to analyze the contribution and potential of the Lampung Province tourism sector to national economic growth in the 2020-2025 period. Using a quantitative descriptive approach using the Location Quotient (LQ) and Shift Share methods, this study processes secondary data on Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) at constant prices from the Central Statistics Agency. The analysis shows that although Lampung's macroeconomic performance is still dominated by the primary sector, the tourism sector, particularly the accommodation and food and beverage subsector, has demonstrated post-pandemic resilience with a significant positive growth trend. In 2024, the GRDP value of this subsector at the provincial level reached IDR 4,616.76 billion, with strategic areas such as Bandar Lampung City confirming the accommodation sector as a base sector (LQ > 1) with a high competitive advantage. The integration of a creative economy based on local wisdom, such as the use of Tapis cloth and digital marketing, has been proven to increase the attractiveness of destinations, capable of driving the volume of domestic tourist trips to reach 17.87 million trips by 2024. This finding confirms that Lampung's tourism sector is not only a regional economic driver, but also makes a substantial contribution to national income through a multiplier effect on job creation and increasing domestic foreign exchange. Optimizing collaboration between policymakers and accelerating infrastructure development are key to strengthening the strategic position of Lampung tourism in the future.

Biofloc technology is a super-intensive fish cultivation method, which benefits heterotrophic bacteria to harvest organic chemical compounds and amines from fish metabolic residues to be converted into bacterial proteins. The use of probiotics is very important to be carried out in cultivation activities, Probiotics are living microorganisms that have a beneficial effect on humans by balancing the microflora in their intestines. The bacteria in probiotics have a mechanism in forming several enzymes for feed digestion. This study aims to determine the effect of administering Pro Top probiotics with different doses on the absolute weight growth of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Probiotics are mixed with feed with a biofloc cultivation system. The method used in this study is an experimental method with a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 6 replications, namely by adding different doses to the treatment. Treatment A (0.5 grams / kg), B (1 gram / kg), C (2 grams / kg) and D (5 grams / kg). The parameters observed are absolute weight growth. Supporting parameters for air quality are temperature, pH, and DO. Data were analyzed using the ANOVA test. Based on the results of the study, it shows that administering different doses of Pro Top probiotics has a significant effect on the absolute weight growth of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Treatment A (0.5 grams/kg) gave the lowest absolute weight growth of 31.05 grams and treatment D (5 grams/kg) gave the highest absolute weight growth of 40.30 grams. Air quality parameters including air temperature ranged from 25.3 – 26.1°C, acidity level around 7.5 – 8.0. And dissolved oxygen ranged from 4.7 – 5.3 ppm. The results of the analysis of variance (ANOVA) of the three air quality parameters showed no difference between the treatments of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).  

Edamame soybean plants are classified as a type of legume, growing upright and with dense leaves. Edamame soybeans can be consumed fresh or processed. One of the soils that can be planted with edamame is peat soil. However, peat soil still has obstacles such as acidic soil conditions and poor nitrogen (N) nutrients in the soil. Low nitrogen content in peat soil can be overcome by adding N fertilizer and photosynthetic bacteria. The use of photosynthetic bacteria in cultivating edamame soybeans can help increase nitrogen supply by fixing nitrogen (N) in the air. This research aims to determine the efficiency of applying a combination of nitrogen fertilizer and photosynthetic bacteria on the growth and yield of edamame soybeans in peat soil. This research was carried out in Pontianak City, with a research duration of approximately 3 months starting from 17 June - 29 August 2023. This research used a Completely Randomized Design consisting of 4 treatment levels, namely; n1= 25 kg/ha N fertilizer + photosynthetic bacteria, n2= 50 kg/ha N fertilizer + photosynthetic bacteria, n3= 75 kg/ha N fertilizer + photosynthetic bacteria, n4= 100 kg/ha N fertilizer + photosynthetic bacteria. The variables observed in this study consisted of plant height, number of productive branches, root volume, plant dry weight, number of root nodules, flowering age, number of pods and pod weight. This research aims to determine the efficiency of applying a combination of nitrogen fertilizer and photosynthetic bacteria on the growth and yield of edamame soybeans in peat soil. The results showed that the combination of nitrogen fertilizer and photosynthetic

Perkembangan kota-kota berkembang di Indonesia ditandai oleh dinamika pertumbuhan fisik, peningkatan mobilitas, serta intensifikasi aktivitas sosial dan ekonomi yang sering kali berdampak pada perubahan citra dan keterbacaan ruang kota. Kota Bandar Lampung, sebagai ibu kota Provinsi Lampung dan gerbang utama Pulau Sumatera, mengalami kondisi tersebut seiring pesatnya perkembangan kawasan pusat kota dan perluasan wilayah permukiman ke arah pinggiran. Ketimpangan penguatan elemen visual dan ruang publik antar kawasan berpotensi menimbulkan fragmentasi citra kota, sehingga persepsi masyarakat terhadap struktur dan identitas ruang cenderung terpusat pada area tertentu saja. Dalam konteks ini, pemahaman mengenai bagaimana pengguna kota memaknai, mengingat, dan merepresentasikan ruang perkotaan menjadi penting untuk mengungkap pembentukan citra Kota Bandar Lampung secara menyeluruh. Pendekatan cognitive mapping dipandang relevan karena mampu menangkap persepsi spasial, pengalaman visual, serta makna simbolik yang terbentuk melalui interaksisehari-hari masyarakat dengan lingkungannya. Melalui pendekatan tersebut, penelitian ini mengkaji citra Kota Bandar Lampung berdasarkan persepsi pengamat untuk mengidentifikasi elemen-elemen ruang yang dominan, sekaligus memahami hubungan antara struktur fisik kota, pengalaman sosial, dan pembentukan identitas perkotaan.
