Determination of the best treatment of the harvesting, physicochemical properties, organoleptic test using the effectiveness index method on the Aceh local rice genotype M7

Abstract

The need for rice continues to increase every year in line with population growth so that eventually it becomes a problem for national food. The society's view of fulfilling carbohydrate needs is one of the factors in increasing rice demand. This study aims to determine the best treatment of the harvesting, physicochemical properties, organoleptic test using the effectiveness index method on M7 genotype Aceh local rice. The results showed that the determination of potential quality of M7 genotype Aceh local rice was in the potential yield parameter and the weight of 1000 grains, the best physicochemical properties of M7 genotype rice were found in G2 which had a value of 0.107. While the parameters of kamba density, water content, and amylose content were found in G6 with the results of 0.178; 0.089 and 0.044. In the parameters of milled rice soaking, whiteness and starch content, the highest product values were found in the G3 with the results of 0.067; 0.133 and 0.200. In the parameters of the rice dimensions and amylopectin levels, the highest values was in G4 and G5 with results of 0.156 and 0.022 and the best organoleptic test results on the M7 genotype Aceh local rice was found in G3 which had a value of 1.000. In the attributes of aroma, color, texture, shape and overall acceptance, the panelists chose Aceh local rice in G3 with the results of 0.133; 0.067; 0.333; 0.267 and 0.200.
