PEMBERIAN PUPUK MAJEMUK NPK DAN Cu UNTUK PERTUMBUHAN TANAMAN KELAPA SAWIT BELUM MENGHASILKAN (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) DI LAHAN GAMBUT
Abstract: Fertilization is a
factor that must be considered to improve the growth of oil palm plant on
peatland. Applications of sufficient and balanced fertilizer is needed to
support the growth of oil palm. One way to get a good growth of oil palmon
peatland is by providing essential nutrients both macro and micro. This
research aims to determine the interaction of NPK and Cu compound fertilizeras
well as finding the best dose for growth of immature oil palm plants. This research
arranged experimentallyby using
randomized block design (RBD), consistof 16 combinations that repeated 3 times,
so obtained 48 units experiment, that 1 unit consists of 2 plants. The observed
parameterswere the plant height increase, stem girth increase, number of midrib
increase andlength of midrib increase. The results showed that the interaction
of NPK and Cu compound fertilizerat dose of 800 g/plant NPK and 75 g/plant Cu
fertilizer gave the best effect on the length of midrib increase.
