PENGARUH JARAK TANAM DAN PEMBERIAN KOMPOS TKKS TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN PRODUKSI BAWANG MERAH (Allium ascalonicum L.) DI ANTARA SAWIT DI LAHAN GAMBUT
Abstract: Onion have high
economic value that is suitable to be cultivated in peatlands. Efforts to
increase onion production can be done with the use of peatlands that have been
planted with oil palm immature. Peatlands are managed by the plant spacing and
the addition of compost TKKS. The research objective was to determine the
effect of plant spacing and composting TKKS the growth and production of onion
in the oil palm plantations on peatlands. The research was done in
experimentation area Faculty of Agroteknologi Universitas Riau, Rimbo Panjang
village, Kampar from June to August 2015. The research was using the Randomized
Block Design Factorial with two factors. The first factor of plant spacing with
three levels namely: 10 cm x 10 cm, 20 cm x 10 cm dan 20 cm x 20 cm. The second
factor of compost dose TKKS with four
levels namely: 5, 10, 15 dan 20 ton/ha. Parameter observed wereplant height,
relative growth rate, dry weight, fresh weight tuber per plot, total tuber, rim
tuber and dry weighttuber per plot. The results showed that the combination of
plant spacing and composting TKKS showed not significant on the growth and
production of onion among the palm trees on peatlands
