Determination of the Vegetative Phase Critical for Monitoring Wheat Nitrogen Status Tropical Through Digital Color Analysis and Index Camera Reflectance
type: item
description: Reliable nitrogen (N) monitoring remains a major challenge in tropical wheat systems due to dynamic N uptake, redistribution, and environmental variability across growth stages. Although RGB based digital imaging offers a rapid and non-destructive alternative, its accuracy is often limited by the phase-dependent relationship between leaf color and nitrogen status. This study aimed to identify the critical vegetative stage that provides the most reliable estimation of leaf nitrogen in tropical wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). A greenhouse experiment was conducted using a randomized block design with five nitrogen rates (0–300 kg urea ha⁻¹). Leaf images were collected at four vegetative stages (V1–V4), and RGB values were transformed into vegetation indices (ExG, GLI, TGI, and NGRDI). These indices were correlated with chlorophyll and leaf nitrogen content using Pearson analysis. Results showed a clear phase-specific pattern, with the strongest relationship observed at V3 (second node emergence). The ExG index exhibited a very strong and significant correlation with leaf nitrogen (r = 0.97; p < 0.01). In contrast, weak correlations at V1 and negative trends at V4 were associated with limited nitrogen accumulation and remobilization processes.These findings highlight V3 as the optimal stage for nitrogen estimation and emphasize the importance of a phase-specific approach to improve RGB based monitoring in tropical wheat systems.

The Use of Agricultural Technology in Rural Papua: A Rural Sociological Analysis and Global Comparison
type: item
description: This article reviews the literature related to the application of agricultural technology in rural Papua and West Papua using a rural sociology perspective. This study has three main objectives: (1) to examine various national and international literature on agricultural technology in rural Papua, (2) to highlight the social, cultural, and structural factors that influence technology adoption among farmers, and (3) to compare local research findings with international studies to formulate a technology implementation model that is more relevant to local conditions. The analysis shows that technologies such as superior seeds, biotechnology-based fertilizers, simple mechanization, and the digitization of agricultural information can increase productivity by up to 30%. However, these benefits are not evenly distributed due to obstacles such as limited infrastructure, low digital literacy, and dependence on external inputs. Compared with countries such as Vietnam, China, and Kenya, which have recorded 40–45% increases through the use of precision technology and pro-farmer policy support, Papua still lags behind. Social factors such as the leadership of traditional leaders, cultural factors such as local wisdom and resistance to modernisation, and structural factors such as access to extension services and financing are key to successful adoption. Therefore, agricultural development in Papua requires a combination of technological innovation with local knowledge, strengthening social networks, and inclusive, participatory, and sustainable policies.
