Reinforcing and optimizing sustainable food production is an urgent contemporary issue. The depletion of natural mineral resources a key problem that addressed by recycling mined potassium phosphorus, nitrogen, whose depends on very high energy input. A closed-loop approach fertilizer use asserts the necessity for efficient management practices organic waste rich in minerals. Human-derived urin...


 Kebutuhan padi fungsional terus meningkat di Indonesia, namun luas lahan budidayanya semakin berkurang. Oleh karena itu, perlu adanya upaya untuk meningkatkan produksi fungsional, salah satunya melalui budidaya soilless. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji pertumbuhan dan hasil tiga varietas yang dibudidayakan pada media soilless (air sekam). Percobaan dilakukan menggunakan rancangan acak ...

Blueberry (Vacciniumcorymbosum interspecific hybrids) production in soilless substrates is becoming increasingly popular. Soilless have low pH buffering capacity. plants preferentially take up ammonium, which acidifies the rhizosphere. Consequently, where blueberry are grown exhibit a tendency to get acidified over time. Agricultural lime (CaCO3) commonly used raise soil and substrate other cro...

New cultural techniques have been developed to improve the yield and raw material quality at harvest, enhance postharvest shelf life, by standardizing growing system. Among different Soilless Cultivation Systems, Growing System (NGS®) is a closed-recirculating system that was designed for open fields protected cultivations. The aim of this work investigate structural setting its functioning har...

Hydroponics culture have many advantages such as increased yield, health and uniform product, conservation of water and land , better protect , control of environmental pollution and reduce of workers for cultivation. So in recently years, usage of organic and inorganic substrates obtained more important for greenhouse owners and researchers. The aim of this study was Effects of culture substra...
