RESPON PERTUMBUHAN DAN PRODUKSI BAWANG MERAH (Allium cepa L.) TERHADAP PENGGUNAAN SERASAH DAUN EUKALIPTUS DAN URINE TERNAK

Abstract

Response of growth and production of shallot (Allium cepa L.) to the use of eucalyptus leaf litter and livestock urine. The purpose of the study was to determine the response of giving bokasih eucalyptus leaf litter and livestock urine to the growth and production of shallots. This research was carried out on the experimental garden of the Faculty of Agriculture, Sisingamngaraja XII University Tapanuli at an altitude of ± 1,400 m above sea level, soil pH 5.90. Using Factorial Randomized Block Design (RAK) as the environmental design with two factors and 3 replications, namely the first factor: treatment with eucalyptus leaf litter bokashi 4 symbol level (S) ie S0 = 0 kg/plot (control), S1 = 3 kg /plot, S2 = 5 kg/plot, S3 = 7 kg/plot and the second factor is the treatment of cow urine liquid fertilizer 4 level symbol (U): U0 = 0 ml/plot (control), U1 = 100 ml/plot, S2= 200 ml/plot, S3 = 300 ml/plot. The data were processed by ANOVA and continued at the DMRT level of 5% and 1%. Parameters observed and measured were plant length (cm), number of leaves (strands) and at the end of the observation the number of cloves (cloves), wet tuber weight per plot (kg) and dry weight of economic tuber per plot (kg). The results showed that the combination of bokashi treatment with eucalyptus leaf litter and organic liquid fertilizer of cow urine on shallots yielded maximum results at a plant length of 49.82 cm (3.52 kg/plot and 300 ml/plant), the number of cloves was 16.81 cloves (3.61 kg/plot and 300 ml)./plant), wet tuber weight per plot was 2071.05 kg (4.44 kg/plot and 300 ml/plant), economic dry tuber weight per plot was 1916.99 kg (3.87 kg/plot and 300 ml/plant).
