PENGARUH PUPUK NPK DAN KASCING TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN KELAPA SAWIT (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) FASE MAIN NURSERY
Abstract: The purpose of this
research is to know the interaction between NPK fertilizer and vermicompost, as
getting the best treatment on the growth of palm oil seedling main nursery
phase. This research has been conducted in the experimental station of
Agriculture Faculty, University of Riau in November 2015 to March 2016. The
study was conducted by using factorial in completely randomized design (CRD),
and two factors and three replications. The first factor is fertilizer NPK with
3 levels (0, 20 and 30 g / plant) and the second factor is vermicompost with 4
levels (0, 20, 40 and 60 g / plant). The parameters measured were the increase
of plant height, the increase number of leaves, the increase of stem diameter,
root volume, leaf area, plant N absortion and outbreak of the leaf. The results
were analyzed statistically using analysis of varian (ANOVA) and followed by
Duncan's New Multiple Range Test (DNMRT) at 5% level. The results showed that
the interaction of NPK fertilizer and vermicompost provides no significant
influence on the parameters the increase of plant height, the increase number
of leaves, the increase of stem diameter leaf area but the interaction of NPK
fertilizer and vermicompost provides significant influence on the parameters
increase of root volume. Vermicompost application at a dose of 20 g / plant
gives the highest N absortion.
