Daftar Isi:
  • Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is a horticultural product belong to the Solanaceae family. Eggplants are in great demand because cheap and lots of vitamin A, B and C. Along with increasing demand, eggplant production needs to be increased. Increasing eggplant production can be pursued by giving organic fertilizer with the right concentration. This research was conducted in April-August 2021 at the Green House of the Biology Study Program, FMIPA Udayana University. The research design used was a completely randomized design (CRD) with a 3x4 factorial pattern with 3 replications. The first factor is the type of organik fertilizer (A) with compost (A1), cow manure (A2) and goat manure (A3). The second factor is the concentration of organik fertilizer (B) which is 0 g/polybag (control) (B0), 500 g/polybag (B1), 1,000 g/polybag (B2) and 1,500 g/polybag (B3). Parameters observed is plant height, number of leaves, number of branches, flower initiation time, age of the plant at harvest, number of fruit crops, fruit length,fruit weight, and fruit diameter. Data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and continued with Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) analysis. The results showed that the treatment of goat manure and a concentration of 1,500 g could increase all research parameters. The combination of goat manure with a concentration of 1,500 g gave effective results on the growth and production of eggplant.
  • Tanaman terung ungu (Solanum melongena L.) merupakan tanaman hortikultura yang tergolong suku Solanaceae. Buahnya diminati karena harganya murahdan mengandung vitamin A, B dan C. Seiring dengan peningkatan minat masyarakat, produksi buah terungungu perlu ditingkatkan. Produksi terung dapat ditingkatkan dengan pupuk organik konsentrasi yang tepat. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan bulan April-Agustus 2021 yang bertempat di Green House Program Studi Biologi FMIPA Universitas Udayana. Rancangan yang digunakan adalah Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) faktorial pola 3x4 dengan ulangan sebanyak 3 kali. Faktor pertama yaitu jenis pupuk organik (A) terdiri dari pupuk kompos (A1), pupuk kandang sapi (A2), pupuk kandang kambing (A3). Faktor keduanya konsentrasi pupuk organik (B) yaitu 0 g/polybag (kontrol) (B0), 500 g/polybag (B1), 1.000 g/polybag (B2) dan 1.500 g/polybag (B3). Parameter penelitian ini yaitu tinggi tanaman, jumlah cabang, jumlah daun, waktu inisiasi bunga, umur tanaman saat panen, panjang buah, jumlah buah, berat buah, dan diameter buah. Data dianalisis menggunakan ANOVA dan dilanjutkan dengan analisis DMRT. Hasil penelitiandiperoleh perlakuan pupuk kandang kambing dan konsentrasi 1.500 g dapat meningkatkan seluruh parameter penelitian. Kombinasi pupuk kandang kambing konsentrasi 1.500 g meningkatkanpertumbuhan dan produksi tanaman terung ungu.
