Pengaruh Volume Penyiraman Air Dan Kompos Kulit Buah Kakao Terhadap Pertumbuhan Bibit Kelapa Sawit (Elaeis Guineensis Jacq.) Pada Medium PMK Di Pembibitan Utama
Abstract: This study aims to
determine the effect of the watering volume and cocoa pod husks compost in the
RYP medium as well as to get the best treatment combination on the growth of
oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) seedlings in the main nursery. This research
was conducted in the greenhouse of Faculty of Agriculture, University of Riau,
Pekanbaru, from December 2015 to March 2016. This research conducted as an
experiment using a completely randomized design (CRD) and 3 replications. Each
experimental unit had 2 seedlings.
Parameters those measured were seedling height, leaves number, trunk diameter growth, roots to shoot ratio,
and dry weight. Data were analyzed statistically using ANOVA and Duncan's
Multiple Range's at the tier of 5%. The results suggest that the interaction of watering volume and cocoa pod husks
compost had no significant effect on all
parameters, but watering volume significantly affected dry weight. While cocoa pod
husks compost significant effect on seedling height and seedling dry weight. In
implementation of 2.5 l / polybag
watering volume and 200g / polybag cocoa pod husks compost provide the best
treatment to all parameters.
