This research aims to study phytochemicals and potential of Mapok (Parinari anamense Hance) extracts to inhibit germination and growth of Barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli) a common weed in the rice fields. Organic solvents extracted the part of fruits barks and leaves of Mapok included hexane ethyl acetate and methanol. Crude extracts compose of fruit hexane extract fruit ethyl acetate extract fruit methanol extract bark hexane extract bark ethyl acetate extract bark methanol extract leaves hexane extract leaves ethyl acetate extract and leave methanol extract. Crude extracts were tested of phytochemical tested of germinating inhibition root length inhibition stem length inhibition and dry weight inhibition of Barnyard grass. Leaves ethyl acetate extract showed highest inhibit germination and growth of Barnyard grass The leave ethyl acetate extract was separated by column chromatography to yield nine fractions (F1 – F9 fraction) and tested inhibit germination and growth repeating. The results showed that 1. The crude ethyl acetate extracts from the bark of Mapok at a concentration of 3000 ppm showed the highest inhibited percentage of germinating inhibition root length inhibition stem length inhibition and dry weight inhibition. 2. Fraction F8 of leaves ethyl acetate extract showed the highest inhibited percentage of germinating inhibition root length inhibition stem length inhibition and dry weight inhibition.

Energy is an important factor in the necessity of human life. Many countries around the world are seeking alternative energy sources. To use as alternative energy. Our alternative sources of energy are ethanol which can be produced from agricultural products. Including plants with cellulose components. The ethanol can be mixed with gasoline. It is a new product called gasohol. This research use of fresh water weed Hydrilla is a raw material in the production of ethanol. Hydrolysis sweetening and fermentation. The microorganisms used in fermentation processes the yeast is found Hydrilla through hydrolysis the acid is H2SO4 at 0.5 % . Measuring the concentration of the alcohol concentration of 4.0 % VOL 9 Brix %. The Hydrilla through hydrolysis at alkaline NaOH is at a concentration of 1 % concentration of alcohol concentration was 3.5% VOL 8 Brix %. Hydrilla and the Hydro Delight with distilled water (H2O) to measure the concentration of the alcohol concentration of 5.5 % VOL 12 Brix %. Thus it can be said that Hydrilla is a material that has the potential to produce ethanol for energy alternatives. And used as a source of renewable energy. Instead of using raw materials from food plants. And other energy crops.

The purposes of this research were to assess the combined phytotoxicity of glyphosate and carbendazim which were normally used as herbicide and fungicide contaminated in soil as 100 – 1000 mg/kg on seedling growth of ridge gourd. Both of glyphosate and carbendazim were toxic to shoot and root growth of ridge gourd seedlings. The 50% effective concentration (EC50) on shoot length root length root fresh weight and shoot dried weight of ridge gourd seedlings for glyphosate were 669.4 413.0 574.5 and 241.4 mg/kg respectively whereas for carbendazim were >1000 357.8 >1000 and 71.4 mg/kg respectively. Co-contamination between glyphosate and carbendazim seemed to be antagonistic effect. Both of glyphosate and carbendazim at all concentration were not toxic to chlorophyll content in cotyledon of ridge gourd seedlings.

The potential of extracts of the Ficus hispida Linn to inhibit germination and growth of barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli) a common weed in rice. The bark leaves and fruit of F. hispida isolated by the Maceration and extracted by the polarity of the solvent (Sequential Extraction) with organic solvents such as hexane ethyl acetate and methanol when each part of the crude extract was tested the type of phytochemical tested for germinate inhibition root length inhibition stem length inhibition and dry weight inhibition of barnyardgrass and selected extracts with highest inhibition to separation using column chromatography the fractions tested repeating. The results showed that 1. Crude methanolic extracts from the bark leaves and fruit of barnyardgrass at a concentration of 3000 ppm showed highest inhibited percentage of germinate inhibition root length inhibition stem length inhibition and dry weight inhibition. 2. Fractions methanolic extracts from the bark leaves and fruit of barnyardgrass on a separate with column chromatography found that fractions extracts F5 F8 and F2 showed highest inhibited percentage of germinate inhibition root length inhibition stem length inhibition and dry weight inhibition.

Study on the inhibition of germination and growth of weeds in rice fields. The extract from the leaves of Xy/ocorpus gongeticus Parkins and Porinori onomense Hance using fermentation Maceration and extraction techniques for Sequential Extraction with three types of solvent hexane ethyl acetate and methanol. The resuLts showed that Leaf extract of Xy/ocorpus gongeticus Parkins with ethylacetate at a concentration of 2000 -3000 ppm showed the highest inhibition of germination and growth of weeds. When the substance to be separated by chromatographic techniques showed that the extracts inhibited the germination and growth percentage of Fl is the highest. Leaf extract of Porinori onomense Hance with hexane at a concentration of 2000 3000 ppm showed the highest inhibition of germination and growth of weeds. When the substance to be separated by chromatographic techniques showed that the extracts inhibited the germination and growth percentage of F4 is the highest. Which can be used for research and development of natural products from plants to control weeds in rice fields to develop further research to commercialization
