PEMBERIAN STIMULAN ETEFON DENGAN TEKNIK BARK APPLICATION PADA PRODUKSI LATEKS TANAMAN KARET (Hevea brasiliensis Muell Arg.)
Abstract: The research intent
to know the effect of giving ethephon stimulant to the latex production of
rubber plant with bark application technique. Research conducted in plantation
of people rubber, Countryside of Bencah Kelubi, District of Tapung, Regency of
Kampar from February till March 2015. This research arranged experimentally by using Completely
Randomized Block Design which consist of
5 treatments ( without giving of ethephon, giving dose of ethephon 0,3
cc plant-1, giving dose of ethephon 0,6 cc plant-1, giving dose of ethephon 0,9
cc plant-1, giving dose of ethephon 1,2 cc plant-1) and 4 group then obtained
20 experimental units with 3 tree each every unit. Parameter observed duration
of latex flow, volume of latex and Dry Rubber Content. Data analyzed
statistically using ANOVA and followed with LSD at level 5% if the results of
analysis of variance significant. Result of research indicate that giving of
ethephon stimulant with dose 0,9 cc plant-1 tend to increase parameters
duration of latex flow and latex volume of local clone rubber.
