PENGARUH PEMBERIAN KADAR AIR BERBEDA TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN PRODUKSI HIJAUAN TANAMAN Indigofera zollingeriana
Abstrak: This study aimed to
determine the water content suitable for plant growth and forage plant
Indigofera zollingerianaproduction. The research was carried out for 15 weeks
in Greenhouse Research Station Faculty of Animal Husbandry at Udayana
University, Jalan Raya Sesetan, GangMarkisa Denpasar. The experimental design
used was completely randomized design (CRD) with five treatments, they were:
100%, 90%, 80%, 70%, and 60% of field capacity with five replications. The
results showed that the plant height and number of leaves were significant (P
<0.05) at the highest at water provision content 100% of field capacity,
respectively 58.80 and 13.80 cm pieces. Similarly, leaf weight, stem weight,
root weight and total weight of forage were significant (P <0.05), the highest
in the provision of water content of 100% compared to other treatments,
respectively: 10.58%; 6.82%: 8.04% and 17.40%. Dry weight ratio of leaves with
stems in the provision of water content of 100%, 90% and 80% had no significant
differences (P <0.05) in the provision of water content of 70%, i.e. 7.74%
was significantly lower (P <0.05 ) compared to treatment A1. Total forage
dry weight ratio with roots also had the lowest significance (P <0.05) in
treatment A4 compared with A1 i.e. equal to 10.13%. In the provision of water
content of 60%, it did not cause their growth and production
