The Effect of Dosing Liquid Organic Fertilizer on the Growth Rate of Seaweed Caulerpa Racemosa (J. Agardh, 1873)
Caulerpa racemosa is one of the most widespread green seaweeds in marine waters. Caulerpa racemosa is a seaweed that is a popular commodity. In addition to being a food ingredient, Caulerpa sp. is used as a substance that provides an anesthetic effect and as a mixture for anti-fungal drugs. The demand for this seaweed continues to increase, but its production cannot be fulfilled, this is because its production is seasonal and still relies heavily on natural products. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the production of Caulerpa sp. through engineering with the addition of fertilizers in its cultivation. This seaweed cultivation pays attention to several parameters such as temperature, dissolved oxygen, salinity, and nutrients. This study aims to examine the effect of giving various doses of liquid organic fertilizer on the growth (wet weight) of C. racemosa seaweed. This study used an experimental method using a completely randomized design (CRD). This method consists of 4 treatments and 3 repetitions. The doses or treatments given were treatment K (no dose of liquid organic fertilizer), A (liquid organic fertilizer dose of 2.5 mL), B (liquid organic fertilizer dose of 3.5 mL) and C (liquid organic fertilizer dose of 4.5 mL). The results of this study showed that the application of liquid organic fertilizer significantly affected the biomass and specific growth rate of C. racemosa (p<0.05). Treatment A (liquid organic fertilizer dose of 2.5 mL) gave the best results of all treatments with a specific growth rate of 1,33 ± 0,16%/day.

Influence of Food Insecurity on Teachers’ Performance and Motivation in Rural Public Secondary Schools in Adamawa State of Nigeria
This study explored the influence of food insecurity on teachers’ performance and motivation in rural public secondary schools in Adamawa State, Nigeria. It examined how income levels affect teachers’ performance, assessed the impact of the availability of agricultural products on teacher’ motivation and identified the relationship between food availability and teachers' overall well-being. The study was guided by three research questions and anchored on Edward L. Deci and Richard M. Ryan’s Self-Determination Theory (SDT), (1985), which emphasized the role of autonomy, competence and relatedness in fostering motivation and well-being. SDT was selected because it highlighted the importance of external factors such as food security and income, in meeting teachers' basic psychological needs, which directly affect their motivation and performance. Data were analyzed using mean ratings. The findings indicated among others that lower income levels significantly undermine teacher performance, as financial stress from inadequate salaries diverts teachers' focus from their professional duties. The study concluded that adequate income levels and food availability are essential for ensuring that teachers can focus on their professional responsibilities and contribute positively to student outcomes.

Climate Variability and the Resilience of Smallholder Tea Production in the East Usambara Mountain Farming System, Tanzania
The complexities of climate change are well-known, and it has immediate and long-term consequences on the environment and natural resources. This global concern adversely affects sustainable development sectors and economic systems including the agricultural sector. The tea sector is among the largest export crops contributing to earnings and revenues. Its production has been declining, and the reasons behind this decline remain unclear. This study proposed to explore the influences of climate variability on the current productivity trend of smallholder tea farmers in Tanzania. The study involves quantitative data analysis, collected from 1990 to 2020 including monthly precipitation, temperature statistics, and Greenleaf production gathered as secondary data from the Tea Research Institute of Tanzania and the Tea Board of Tanzania. The study found that rainfall and temperature change significantly influence smallholder farmers' tea production in the East Usambara Mountains. The optimal climate elements (temperature and precipitation) positively improve smallholder farmers' tea production. In contrast, extreme climate variability triggers negative effects on tea production when precautions and adaptation measures are not considered. To summarize, it is recommended that farmers engage in different programs and training sessions to enhance their perception and adaptability to climate change.

Enhancing Pomegranate Yield Through Biological Control of Shot Hole Borer: A Comparative Studyy
This study demonstrates the potential of Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, and Trichogramma spp. as effective biological control agents against the Shot Hole Borer in pomegranate orchards. The findings suggest that these bioagents can be integrated into existing pest management programs, offering a viable and environmentally sustainable alternative to chemical pesticides. This research contributes to the broader field of sustainable agriculture and highlights the importance of biological control in managing pest populations in fruit crops.

Seasonal Variation in Nematode Infestation Across Bahar Treatments in Pomegranate Cultivation
This study investigates the influence of three Bahar treatments—Ambe Bahar (spring flowering), Mrig Bahar (monsoon flowering), and Hasta Bahar (autumn flowering)—on the extent of nematode infestation in pomegranate orchards. The research was conducted in major pomegranate-growing regions of India, where soil samples were collected from fields practicing each of the Bahar treatments. The results revealed significant differences in nematode infestation levels across the three Bahar treatments. Mrig Bahar exhibited the lowest nematode density, with an average of 80 nematodes per 100g of soil, compared to 120 in Hasta Bahar and 150 in Ambe Bahar. Additionally, Mrig Bahar treatment was associated with the highest average yield (12.8 kg per plant) and superior fruit quality (Grade A). The findings suggest that Mrig Bahar offers a more conducive environment for nematode management, likely due to its timing relative to environmental conditions that may suppress nematode activity.

Development of SPLTV Learning Media using the Clickteam Fusion 2.5 Mobile Application
This development research is driven by technological advances that continue to develop rapidly but have not been utilized optimally by educators. This can be seen from the lack of innovation in creating interesting learning. Monotonous learning activities cause students to feel bored and affect their learning outcomes, especially in the material of the three-variable linear equation system. This research aims to develop a learning media based on the Clickteam Fusion 2.5 mobile application that is valid, practical, and effective. This research uses the Research and Development (R&D) development method. The model used in the development process of ADDIE. The subjects of this study are teachers and students of class X of St. Thomas Aquino Catholic High School Tulungagung which totals 95 students. The data collection method uses validity questionnaires from media experts and material experts, questionnaires of teacher and student responses, and student learning outcome tests. The results of the validity test from media experts showed a score of 90% with a very valid category, while material experts obtained a score of 80% with a fairly valid category. The practicality test by teachers showed a score of 80.86% and by students 89.56%, both in the very practical category. The media effectiveness assessment obtained a score of 89% with the category of very effective.

The Effectivecness of Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) on Students Speaking Abylity at SMAN 1 Rejotangan
The main objective of learning English is to use it to communicate. Teachers must have good teaching methods to solve the problems students face in learning English. Communicative Language Teaching is one of the methods that suits the goal of language teaching, especially in teaching speaking. Thus, the research objective was to know the effectiveness of communicative language teaching on students' speaking abilities. The researcher used a quantitative research design that was carried out using a pre-experimental design (pre-test and post-test). The population of this research is tenth-grade students of SMAN 1 Rejotangan Tulungagung. The sample in this study consisted of students from class tenth G, totaling 36 students. The researcher chose 20 tenth-grade students in SMAN 1 Rejotangan Tulungagung for this research. The instrument was an oral test. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis, and the hypothesis was tested using a paired Sample T-test. The average post-test score is higher than the average post-test score on the initial test (80.40 > 75.45). Furthermore, the significant value obtained is lower than the significance level (0.000 < 0.05). Thus, the tenth-grade students of SMAN 1 Rejotangan have better speaking ability after being taught using the CLT strategy.
