The low productivity of cucumber plants in Indonesia can be caused by several factors, one which is fertilization. Fertilization on Inceptisol soil has a nitrogen content needed to increase crop yields. use inorganic fertilizers limited avoid environmental pollution, so the biofertilizers an environmentally friendly option. purpose this study was determine effect concentration and interval appl...

The effect of ultraviolet-B (280 to 320 nm) irradiation on physiological activities of Anabaena flos-aquae and the water fern Azolla caroliniana has been studied under conditions where lethal effects of irradiation are absent. Nitrogenase activity, measured as acetylene reduction, specifically declined during irradiation with low levels of ultraviolet-B, whereas other physiological activities w...

The effect of three chemical formulationstwo surfactants, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and Sodium Dodecyl Benzene Sulfonate (SDBS) and a builder Sodium Tripolyphosphate (STPP) on two aquatic plants – Azolla pinnata and Hydrilla verticillata was studied at various concentrations for a period of five months, from November to March. It was observed that while the detergents favoured the growth of p...

Synthetic nitrogen fertilizers can contribute to environmental hazards. Moreover, their manufacturing is an energy-intensive process which causes greenhouse gas emissions, lead climate change. Therefore, it should evaluate the possibility use organic sources such as Azolla a partial substitute for synthetic in cultivation, this may reduce cost of fertilizer inputs, and promote sustainable agric...
