PERTUMBUHAN DAN PRODUKSI BAWANG MERAH (Allium ascalonicum L.) DENGAN PEMBERIAN TRICHOKOMPOS JERAMI PADI DAN KALIUM DI LAHAN GAMBUT
Abstract: The cultivation of
red onion in peatlands have several problems that have low pH, highcation
exchange capacity, low base saturation and low content of macro and micro
nutrients. Efforts to solve the problem on peat soil should be giving rice
straw Trichokompos and Potassium fertilizer as it can improve the physical,
biological and chemical on peat soil. The purpose of this study was to
determine the effect of interaction between rice straw Trichocompost and
Potassium, the influence of rice straw Trichocompost factors and the influence
of Potassium factors, as well as getting the best combination on the growth and
red onion production on peatlands. This research was conducted experimentally,
using a randomized block design (RBD) factorial consisting of two factors and
three replications, namely: rice straw Trichokompos factor (0, 250, 500, 750 g
/ plot) and Potassium factor (0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 g KCL / plot). Observational data
obtained were analyzed using variance analysis and conducted a further test
using Duncan's New Multiple Range Test (DNMRT) at 5% level. The results of the
study showed that giving rice straw Trichocompost and potassium fertilizers,
indirectly affects growth and onion production. Provision of rice straw
Trichocompost 250 g / plot (10 ton / ha) and potassium fertilizers KCl 5 g /
plot (200 kg / ha) has the best ability to increase growth and onion
production.
