PEMANFAATAN ABU SERBUK GERGAJI DAN PUPUK GUANO TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN PRODUKSI TANAMAN CABAI (Capsicum annum L.)DI LAHAN GAMBUT
Abstract: This study aims to
look at the effect of sawdustash and guano fertilizer on the growth and
production of pepper plants in peatland as well as to get appropriate dose of
sawdust ash and manure guano. This research was conducted at the experimental
peat garden, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Riau, RimboPanjang, Kampar.
The research lasted for five months, from December 2013 until May 2014. The
experiments was conducted using factorial randomized block design consisting of
two factors and three repetition. The first factor is the sawdustash 10 ton /
ha (4 kg/plot), 20 tons / ha (8 kg/plot), 30 t / ha (12 kg/plot) and the second
factor is the guano fertilizer, 100 kg / ha (40 gram/plot), 200 kg / ha (80
gram/plot), 300 kg / ha (120 gram/plot). Parameters measured were plant height,
days to flowering, fruit length, fruit diameter, harvesting age, fresh fruit
weight and fruit weight per plot. The data obtained were statistically analyzed
using analysis of variance followed by Duncan's multiple range test at 5%. The
result show that the best dose for enhancing chili growth and production is 20
ton/ha (8 kg/plot) sawdust ash and 300 kg/ha (120 gram/plot) guano fertilizer.
The best treatment parameters: flowering age, harvesting age, fruit length,
fruit diameter, and fresh fruit weight, fruit weight per plot.
