DAYA HASIL BEBERAPA KULTIVAR SORGUM (Sorghum bicolor L.) PADA JARAK TANAM YANG BERBEDA
Abstract: The objective of
this research was to determine the yield of four sorghum cultivars at different
plant spacing and find out proper plant spacing for each sorghum cultivars.
This research was conducted in the Agriculture experiment statiou and in plant
breeding laboratory, Riau University from April 2015 to Agustus 2015. The
parameters those observed were plant height, number of stem internodes, stem diameter,
panicle length, time to harvest, grain weight per panicle, number of grains per
panicle, yield per m2 and weight of 1000 grains. The results showed that
increasing plant population per area due tothick planting space increasedgrain
yield for 27% to 36.33% compare to wider planting space. Patir 9 as a new line
developed by BATAN with 75 cm between row and 15 cm within a row has the high
yield potential compared with other cultivars.
