Pengaruh Macam Media dan Takaran Pupuk Kandang Kambing terhadap Pertumbuhan dan Hasil Sawi Hijau (<em>Brassica rapa </em>L.)

Abstract

Demand for food crops was expected to increase substantially, include the vegetable crops. Conversion of farmland in Indonesia to urban development reduces the amount of lands available for crops production. Use of fertilizer, especially chemical fertilizers has brought in soil degradation and the loss of equilibrium of a stable soil. It also decreased the product quality of vegetables crops. Growing vegetable crops in small spaces could take to increase productivity for the long-term. Eco-friendly technologies in vegetable cultivation need to be intensified. In reply to this, organic fertilizers in agriculture will be the right solution for retaining productivity of problem soils, reducing the usage of chemical fertilizers, improving vegetable crops productivity. The study was aimed to determine the effect of the growing media and proportion of goat manure applications on the growth and yield of green mustard. The research had been conducted in Ponjong District, Gunungkidul Regency since March until July 2016. The research was arranged in randomized complete design factorial, consisted of two factors. The first factor was kinds of growing media that consisted of four levels : soil, raw rice husk, rice husk charcoal, and sawdust. Then the second factor was proportion of growing media and goat manure that consisted of three levels : without manures, 2:1, and 1:1. The result of experiment showed rice husk charcoal with proportion of goat manures 1:1 was considered affecting the best performance of plant growth such as increasing plant height, leaves, leaf area, fresh weight, and dry weight of green mustards.

Effectiveness of NPK compound (15-15-6) fertilizer to improve maize performance in inceptisol soil

The larger the leaf area means the longer the photosynthesis process takes place in the leaves so that the photosynthesis produced in the leaves will increase [15].…”

“…Tanah sebagai media tanam juga harus memiliki kemampuan dalam mengikat air atau Water Holding Capacity (WHC), karena tekstur yang berpori, ringan, dan memiliki aerasi yang baik (Anjarwati et al 2017). Selain tanah, pupuk kandang (pupuk organik) dan sekam padi juga digunakan sebagai campuran media tanam agar menghasilkan media tanam dengan kualitas baik.…”
