Pengaruh Pupuk Vermikompos Pada Tanah Inceptisol Terhadap Pertumbuhan dan Hasil Sawi Hijau (Brassica juncea L)
Abstract: Mustard is one of
broadleaf vegetables are very potential to be cultivated because of the high
demand of vegetables. production is likely to increase over the use of
inorganic fertilizers and pesticides excessive. At the now widely circulated
one is organic fertilizer vermicompost. Provision of vermicompost on soil can
improve soil chemical properties, soil physical properties and biological
properties of soil. This research was
conducted in the Faculty of Agriculture experimental station, Riau University,
campus Bina Widya km 12, 5, Tampan, Pekanbaru, with soil type Inceptisol, from
March until May 2013. This study uses a completely randomized design (RAL) with
5 treatments and 5 replicates in order to obtain 25 units of the experiment,
namely T0: without giving vermicompost, T1:2ton/ha vermicompost, T2: 4 tons /
ha vermicompost, T3: 6ton/ha vermicompost, T4 : 8ton/ha vermicompost.
Parameters observed in this study were plant height, number of leaves, leaf
area, root volume, and fresh weight of
consumption. vermicompost fertilizer on soil of Inceptisol significant
effect on the growth parameters of plant height, leaf number, leaf area, and
heavy consumption of fresh mustard plant and not a real effect on the root
volume.
