Pengaruh Pemberian Kompos TKKS dan Pupuk NPK Terhadap Pertumbuhan dan Produksi Tanaman Jagung (Zea mays L.)
Abstract: The research was
conducted at experimental farm, The Faculty of Agricultute, Riau University
from March until July 2016 to look the effect of palm oil empty bunch compost
and NPK fertilizer for corn growth and productivity and to know the best
dosage. The research factorial 4x4 and three replication was arranged in
Randomized Completely Block Design. The first factor was palm oil empty bunch compost (without palm
oil empty bunch compost, 5 ton/ha, 10 ton/ha, and 15 ton/ha) and the second
factor was NPK fertilizer (without NPK fertilizer, 100 kg/ha, 200 kg/ha, and
300 kg/ha). From both factor there are 16 treatment combination which repeat
three times. The result revelaed that palm oil empty bunch compost and NPK
fertilizer combination significant effect with plant’s growth, the ration of
roots crown, dry weight of plants, diameter of rod, diameter of cobs, length of
cob, weight of seed, a thousand weight of seeds and not significant with total
leaf area and height of plant’s . The combination of 5 ton/ha palm oil empty
bunch compost and 200 kg/ha NPK
fertilizer showed the best weight of seeds obtained was 4,85
kg/6 m2 than without palm oil empty bunch compost and NPK fertilizer that
obtained was 3,70 kg/6 m2 weight of seeds.
