Pengaruh Konsentrasi Antitranspiran Chitosan Terhadap Pembuahan dan Produksi Salak Gula Pasir di Luar Musim
Abstract: The Effect of
Antitranspirant Chitosan Consentrantions to Fruit-Set and Production ff Salacca
zalacca var. Gula Pasir on Off-Season. Salak Gula Pasir (Salacca zalacca var.
Gula Pasir) naturally flowering once every three months or four times a year.
During the four times flowering, the best harvest or fruit production only once
a year while the other three flowering are failed become a fruit-set. The
failure was caused by rainfall and low rainy time. This research aimed to know
the effect of several Antitranspirant Chitosan Consentrations to the success of
flower to become a fruit (fruit-set) on Salacca zalacca var. Gula Pasir. This
research used random sampling where the area was divided into four
Antitranspirant Chitosan Consentrations. The factor of Antitranspirant Chitosan
Consentrations consists of four levels (0%, 15%, 30%, and 45%). The research
was conducted at the central production of Salacca zalacca var. Gula Pasir in
Sibetan Village, Bebandem District, Karangasem Regency. The result of giving Antitranspirant
Chitosan Consentrations at 45% was effective improved the success of flower to
become a fruit-set of 64,48% on Gadu Season while on Sela II Season it
effective improved 84,38% at the 30% consentrations.
