The use of liquid organic fertilizer (POC) is an innovative solution to increase crop productivity in drylands that face challenges in soil fertility and water availability. This study aims to evaluate the effect of various types of POC, including moringa, kirinyu, rabbit urine, fermented fruit waste, and local microorganism-based (MOL) POC, on plant growth and yield. The method used was literature review and analysis of literature from various journals, theses, theses, and dissertations, which were analyzed descriptively and quantitatively.  The results showed that all types of POC increased plant productivity with an average increase of 20-40% compared to the control, with rabbit urine recording the highest increase of 40%. The effectiveness of POC comes from the content of nutrients, bioactive compounds, and microorganisms that improve soil structure, increase water retention, and spur nutrient absorption. The discussion underscored the importance of utilizing local resources to reduce environmental pollution and improve agricultural sustainability.  In conclusion, POC proved to be an effective alternative to increase crop yields in drylands while supporting sustainable agriculture. Recommendations for further research include further exploration of local organic materials and application of POC on a field scale.

The results of this study indicate that the performance of administrative services is not yet optimal or has not been implemented properly. This can be seen from the research findings regarding service standards, which include several indicators: service procedures, completion time, facilities and infrastructure, and the competence of service officers. The study concludes that improvements are needed in discipline, knowledge, skills, and expertise of the officers so that the service process can be carried out effectively.

Responden dalam penelitian ini berjumlah 73 siswa yang merupakan siswa kelas XI Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan X. Teknik pengambilan sampel yang digunakan adalah teknik sampling jenuh. Data penelitian dikumpulkan dengan menggunakan dua skala, yaitu skala Kepercayaan diri dan skala Komunikasi Interpersonal. Analisis data dilakukan dengan menggunakan teknik Korelasi Product Moment. Hasil perhitungan didapatkan nilai correlation coefficient, yaitu 0,654 dengan nilai sig=0,000. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang sangat signifikan antara Kepercayaan Diri dengan Komunikasi Interpersonal, dimana semakin tinggi kepercayaan diri yang dimiliki maka semakin tinggi pula kemampuan komunikasi interpersonalnya. Sebaliknya semakin rendah kepercayaan diri maka semakin rendah pula kemampuan komunikasi interpersonalnya.

This research aims to explore the optimization of land clearing techniques in supporting agricultural sustainability in Dahana Tabaloho Village, Gunungsitoli District, North Sumatra. This research involved students of the University of Nias Agrotechnology Study Program who applied land clearing techniques which included weed removal, soil loosening, drainage and bed making. The methods used in this study were direct observation, interviews, and measurement of soil parameters before and after the application of the techniques. The results showed that the combination of traditional and modern techniques in land management can improve tillage efficiency and environmental sustainability. The use of cultivators for soil loosening is proven to speed up the process, but still requires organic fertilizer to maintain the quality of the soil structure. Good drainage is effective in managing excess water and ensuring water availability during the dry season. In addition, making beds with proper direction supports optimal plant growth. The 15% increase in organic matter content and the stability of soil pH to remain neutral are indicators of the success of the applied techniques. Overall, this study provides evidence that proper land management can support sustainable agricultural productivity in the tropics.

The use of fertilizer in plant cultivation is basically carried out to meet the availability of nutrients for plants in order to obtain optimal results. However, excessive use of fertilizer can actually have a negative impact on the ecosystem, such as environmental pollution and decreasing soil quality. The use of biofertilizer as a substitute for biological fertilizer is an alternative that can be used to reduce dependence on chemical fertilizers. Biofertilizer is a biological fertilizer containing various live microorganisms which is used to increase plant productivity by improving the quality of soil fertility. One of the microbes that acts as a biofertilizer is the Bacillus sp. The purpose of this article is to find out how Bacillus sp. functions as a biological fertilizer that can increase soil fertility and increase crop productivity. Bacillus is a genus of bacteria that can be used as a biofertilizer because of its more varied antagonistic mechanisms and ability to produce endospores. The method used in this article is a meta-analysis or literature review method in several journals published online which are integrated with Google Scholar.

Organic farming has increasingly become a preferred choice in sustainable agricultural systems due to its significant benefits for environmental balance and quality. One of the key elements in organic farming is soil microorganisms, which play a crucial role in enhancing soil fertility and supporting plant health. Soil microorganisms, such as nitrogen-fixing bacteria, phosphate-solubilizing microbes, mycorrhiza, and organic matter decomposers, contribute significantly to fertilization efficiency and nutrient availability, as well as improving plant resistance to pathogens. The utilization of soil microorganisms as biofertilizers can reduce dependency on chemical fertilizers, mitigate environmental pollution, and increase agricultural productivity sustainably. Furthermore, soil microorganisms can improve soil structure, extend root longevity, and stimulate plant growth. The selection of appropriate microorganisms according to soil conditions and intended use is essential to maximize their benefits. Therefore, the application of soil fertility-promoting microorganisms as part of sustainable agricultural technology holds great potential to enhance environmentally friendly and efficient agricultural outcomes.

Soil fertility is a key element in the sustainability of agricultural systems that support global food security. One important soil microorganism that plays a role in improving soil fertility is Rhizobium, a bacterium capable of biological nitrogen fixation through a symbiotic relationship with leguminosae plants. This bacterium not only contributes to increasing soil nitrogen availability by 30-50% but also helps reduce dependence on synthetic nitrogen fertilizers, which has implications for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Nonetheless, the effectiveness of Rhizobium is strongly influenced by environmental conditions such as pH, salinity, and chemical pollutants, which can inhibit its symbiotic ability. Technological innovations, such as nano-based formulations and the development of superior strains, offer solutions to improve the efficiency of Rhizobium, but challenges such as high costs and lack of policy support remain. In addition, the widespread use of Rhizobium inoculants may disrupt the balance of the soil microbial ecosystem, requiring further research. Therefore, integration of technology, policy and farmer education is needed to optimally utilize the full potential of Rhizobium while mitigating environmental risks, to support a more sustainable agricultural system.

The use of nitrogen-fixing bacteria in agriculture is an effective way to improve soil fertility and overall crop productivity. Bacteria such as Rhizobium, Azotobacter, and Azospirillum are able to extract nitrogen from the soil and convert it into a form that can be absorbed by plants, which is essential for the formation of protein, DNA, and RNA in plants. By utilizing the capabilities of these bacteria, the use of synthetic chemical fertilizers can be varied, thereby reducing the detrimental dampening effects on water quality and the environment. In addition, nitrogen-fixing bacteria improve water use efficiency and contribute to the health of aquatic ecosystems. The use of these bacteria has the potential to improve the results of a more thorough analysis with less cost and less environmental impact.
