The aims of this study were to find out how the growth and yield of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) responds to the application of bokashi fertilizer and got the best dose of bokashi fertilizer for growth and yield of sorghum. This study was designed using a Randomized Block Design (RBD) experimental method.
Giving of bokashi fertilizer with various dosages in sorghum plants can give a good response to the growth and production of sorghum plants. Giving of bokashi fertilizer with a dosage of 15 tons/ha or equivalent to 6.48 kg/plot (P3) resulted better plant growth than other treatments, with an average plant height of 204.94 cm at the age of 56 days after planting (DAP), the number of tillers flat average 5.50 tillers at the age of 28 DAP, fastest flowering age was 55.75 DAP, average wet biomass 1710.25 g/plant, fresh weight cobs in average of 129.06 g/plant, average yield was 1892,50 g/plot, average of weight of 1000 seeds was 12.63 g. Giving of bokashi fertilizer with a dosage of 17.5 tons/ha or equivalent to 7.56 kg/plot (P4) resulted the number of leaves in average of 17.69 at the age of 56 DAP and panicle length average of 40.06 cm. Giving of bokashi fertilizer with a dosage of 10 tons/ha or equivalent to 4.32 kg/plot (P1) resulted the number of panicle branches in average of 46.75 branches.
This study aimed to find appropriate media formulations for plant propagation of potato in vitro. Research conducted at the Tissue Culture Laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tridinanti Palembang, beginning July 2015 until October 2015. The research design was used Completely Randomized Design arranged in factorial, with nine combined treatment and five replications ie: N1A1 = 0.5 ppm NAA + 100 ml l -1 coconut water, N1A2 = 0.5 ppm NAA + 150 ml coconut water, N1A3 = 0.5 ppm NAA + 200 ml l -1 coconut water, N2A1 = 1 ppm NAA + 100 ml l -1 coconut water, N2A2 = 1 ppm NAA + 150 ml l -1 coconut water, N2A3 = 1 ppm NAA + 200 ml l -1 coconut water, N3A1 = 1.5 ppm NAA + 100 ml l -1 coconut water, N3A2 = 1.5 ppm NAA + 150 ml l -1 coconut water, and N3A3 = 1.5 ppm NAA + 200 ml l -1 coconut water. The observation parameter are the time to established buds, shoots high, the time to established roots, number of roots, root length, and the percentage of plantlets life. The results showed that treatment of NAA at a concentration of 1 ppm affected significant on the root length 7.74 cm. Coconut water at a concentration of 100 ml days after planting significantly affected the established of root ie 9.97 days after planting and 200 ml l -1 of coconut water has a significant effect on shoot height 10.27 cm. There was no significant interaction between NAA and coconut water in almost of all parameters were observed, except on the parameter of established roots. NAA at a concentration of 1.5 ppm and 200 ml l -1 of coconut water has a significant interaction for paremeter time to established roots ie 7.00 days after planting
