Indonesia , M Umar Harun Faculty of Agriculture, Sriwijaya University, Palembang, South Sumatra, Indonesia. IndonesiaNon-timber forest products (NTFPs) are a great potential in the forest, one of which is in the Saleh-Sugihan River Peat Hydrology Area (PHA). More optimal utilization of NTFPs is obtained with more diverse types of NTFPs, so it is important to know the diversity and potential of commodities in peatland areas for further development based on NTFPs. The research had been conducted from May to July 2018 in the PHA area of the Saleh-Sugihan Rivers, choosing Pangkalan Lampam District, Ogan Komering Ilir Regency, South Sumatra. Research sites include the villages of Air Rumbai, Deling, Lirik, Pangkalan Lampam, Rambai and Sukaraja. The research method is used by sampling, observation and interview methods. Determination of selected commodities uses analysis of Non-Timber Forest Products / NTFPs (Regulation of the Minister of Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia, 2009). Based on the results of the research that has been carried out, it is concluded that the leading commodity from the Peat Hydrology Area is swallow, paddy and fish, while the main commodity in Pangkalan Lampam sub-district is buffalo and purun. Leading commodity types of swallow, paddy, fish become NTFPs which are prioritized to be developed at the PHA River Saleh-Sugihan location, so that their development will be more focused and directed, in order to improve the regional economy.

Aria Yanka Paula Putri Sriwijaya University Indonesia , Hary Widjajanti , Harminuke Eka HandayaniMining activities can have negative impact on the environment causing water and soil pollution. Chemical physical properties also biological environment to change condition to be low organic matter, low soil pH, low water holding capacity, inadequate nutrient and acid generating material. Coal mining land is acidic cause of sulfur oxidation reaction with rainwater to produce sulfuric acid so that acidic of the soil condition. Biotechnology study is a wise effort to solution environment pollution with Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB) as bioremediation agents. SRB can contaminate sulphate with an indicator pH increase which indicates of a SRB population increase and sulfate content decrease. This study aims to obtain a SRB isolate as potential a bioremediation agent for ex-coal mining soil. This study is experiment research with SRB isolate as treatment, that obtained from ex-coal mining soil at PT. Bukit Asam Tanjung Enim, South Sumatera. The result of this study obtained 10 (ten) SRB isolated a from the bacterial isolation stage. Ten SRB isolates were selected, obtained by five SRB isolates that have black criteria with the number of colonies approaching the same so that it has the potential as a bioremediation agent for ex-coal mining soil. SRB isolates P10T1R2, P9T2R2, P6T1R3, P5T1R1 dan P2T1R2 were potential tested on ex-coal mining to increase pH and reduce sulfate. The P5T1R1 SRB isolate has the potential to reduce sulfate at a concentration of 3561 ppm. Furthermore the result of the 5% LSD test show that this isolates is significantly different that other isolates so that it can be used as bioremediation agent.

Okafor Department of Sociology Olabisi Onabanjo University P.M.B 2002,Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State, Nigeria NigeriaThis study examined factors influencing the adoption and infusion of green practices by manufacturing companies in Ogun State, Nigeria. The study adopted a cross-sectional and descriptive survey research design. Area-based technique in which multi-stage sampling technique was used to select 321 employees of medium and large-sca2le manufacturing firms in Ogun State, Nigeria. A semi-structured questionnaire was used for data collection. The data were analysed using factor analysis and multiple regression. An examination of the research objective revealed two technological factors which are a combination of adoption cost and complexity (as the first factor) as well as the combination of relative advantage and compatibility (as the second factor) that influence green practices adoption in every manufacturing company. Also, five organizational factors (regulatory support, organizational support, quality of human resources, environmental factors and customer pressure) influence green practices adoption with eigenvalues greater than 1 and Cronbach’s alpha greater than 0.700. Test of hypotheses revealed that compatibility (β =0.191, t = 2.033; P < .05), organizational support (β = -0.303, t = -3.595; P < .05), environmental factors (β = -0.219, t = -3.199; P < .05) significantly independently predicted infusion of green practices while, adoption cost (β =-0.087, t = .909; P >.05), complexity (β =0.022, t = .264; P < .05), relative advantage (β =0.072, t = 808; P > .05), quality of human resource (β =0.125, t = 1.364; P > .05), government support (β =-.031, t = -464; P > .05), regulatory support (β = -.118, t = -1.562 P > .05) and customer pressure (β = -.119, t = -1.557; P > .05) had no significant independent prediction on infusion of green practices. The findings of the study were discussed within the existing literature and recommendations were provided for policy intervention.
