The Effect of Manure Dosage and Types of Plant Growth Regulators (PGRs) on the Generative Phase of Bird’s Eye Chili (Capsicum frutescens L)

Putri Rizkia, Hilda Pratiwi, Mizan Maulana
Abstract: This study aims to determine the effect of manure dosage and types of plant growth regulators (PGRs), as well as their interaction, on the generative phase of bird’s eye chili plants (Capsicum frutescens L.) in order to… o improve productivity, which remains fluctuating due to suboptimal cultivation practices. The research was conducted from February to March 2026 at the experimental field of the Pusat Riset Bisnis Kopbun Suka Tani Sejahtera, Kota Juang District, Bireuen Regency, using a factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD) of 4 × 3 with three replications. The first factor was the dosage of manure (control, 1 kg/plant, 1.5 kg/plant, and 2 kg/plant), while the second factor was the type of natural PGR (onion extract, rice water, and coconut water). Data were collected through direct observations on several parameters, including number of fruits, fruit weight, fresh biomass weight, root fresh weight, and root length, and were then analyzed to determine the effects of treatments and their interactions.          The results showed that certain doses of manure had a significant effect on increasing yield and root growth, while natural PGRs were able to enhance flowering, reduce flower drop, and accelerate fruit formation. The interaction between both treatments indicated that the optimal combination produced higher results compared to single treatments. The novelty of this study lies in the use of a combination of manure and natural PGRs based on local materials as a strategy to improve the generative phase. The implications of this research are expected to serve as a scientific reference for the development of sustainable cultivation techniques, as well as learning material and further research in the fields of agronomy and horticulture.

AGAMA DALAM PERADABAN BARAT: SEKULARISME DAN NIHILIASASI KONSEP TUHAN

Fakih Hamdani
Abstract: Religion is an important element in human life, because humans in their creation were intentionally limited in form, so they depend on the Almighty Unlimited. The West, as one of the great forms of human civilization, has… s experienced various phases of periodization with various upheavals of thought and action regarding religion. The early western period with philosophy as the main reference made religion something that was put aside, the middle period of the western dark ages became very radical in religion which was dominated by the church, while in the final period religion was again put aside with the growth of philosophical culture. Philosophical culture in western civilization, in the author's analysis of various sources, has actually produced various forms of thought and action in western society towards religion, the most important of which is secularism and the nihilization of the concept of God. Secularism is a form of effort to eliminate religion in the context of western civilization, in line with the development of thought with efforts to nihilize the concept of God and the scientific culture of western society. Agama menjadi salah satu unsur yang penting dalam kehidupan manusia, sebab manusia dalam penciptaannya memang disengaja dalam bentuk terbatas, sehingga tergantung kepada Dzat yang Maha tidak terbatas. Barat, sebagai salah satu wujud peradabaan besar umat manusia telah mengalami berbagai fase periodesasi dengan berbagai pergolakan pemikiran dan aksi terhadap agama. Periode awal barat dengan filsafat sebagai acuan utama menjadikan agama sebagai hal yang dikesampingkan, periode pertengahan abad kegelapan barat menjadi sangat radikal dalam beragama yang didominasi oleh gereja, sedangkan dalam periode akhir agama kembali dikesampingkan dengan tumbuh berkembangnya budaya filsafat. Budaya filsafat dalam peradaban barat, dalam penelahaan penulis dari berbagai sumber nyata-nyata telah menghasilkan berbagai bentuk pemikiran dan aksi masyarakat barat terhadap agama, yang paling utama adalah sekularisme dan nihilisasi konsep tuhan. Sekularisme yang merupakan bentuk upaya menghilangkan agama dalam konteks kehidupan peradaban barat, seiring sejalan dengan perkembangan pemikiran dengan upaya nihilisasi konsep Tuhan dan budaya keilmuan masyarakat barat.
