Rubrum). The research was conducted at the Laboratory …
ABSTRACT Oil palm cultivation on peatlands is faced with various limiting factors for its growth such as high acidity. Efforts that can be made to overcome problems in peat soils to reduce degradation and restore peat soil fertility can be done by giving ameliorant which can also increase oil palm productivity. One type of ameliorant is PKS boiler ash which comes from burning palm kernel s…
ABSTRACT Shallot (Allium ascalonicum L.) is a horticultural plant that contains carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and minerals. The productivity of shallots are low in Riau Province, which is caused by Xanthomonas sp. This bacterium is the pathogen of the important disease that attack at various growth stages in shallot plants. The Symptoms is yellowish white spots, chlorosis to shoot death. T…
ABSTRACT This research aims to increase the growth and production of ipomea reptans Poir that were given Growmore leaf fertilizer at different spraying intervals, and the concentration and interval of leaf fertilizer. The research was conducted experimentally using a completely randomized design (CRD), consisting of 2 treatments and repeated 3 times. The first treatment was the concentrat…
ABSTRACT Porang (Amorphophallus muelleri Blume.) is one of the plants that has the potential to be cultivated on peatlands. This research aimed to increase the growth of porang on peat media for 6 months after planting by using bulbil size with dolomite. This research was conducted in the Technical Management Unit of Experimental Gardens, Faculty of Agriculture, Riau University from Octobe…
ABSTRACT Shallots are horticultural crops that have an important role as the Indonesian trade vegetable commodities, one of which is used as a kitchen spice. The low productivity of shallots in Riau Province is caused by the use of poor planting media such as Ultisol. Whereas Ultisols land has the potential to be developed in Riau. Ultisols soil constraints include the very low content of …
ABSTRACT Oil palm is a plantation crop that plays a strategic role in the Indonesian economy because this commodity has bright prospects as a source of foreign exchange. The experiment aims to know the effect of interaction giving NPK fertilizer and rice husk compost and get a best combination dose for the growth of oil palm seedlings in the main nursery. The research was conducted experim…
ABSTRACT Palm oil is the largest vegetable oil-producing plantation crop in the world. Riau Province is one of the centers of palm oil production in Indonesia. One of the causes of the decline in palm oil production is stem rot disease caused by the pathogenic fungus Ganoderma spp. The aims of this study were to determine the effect of inoculation of Ganoderma spp. isolates from palm oil p…
ABSTRACT The rhizosphere is a habitat for various kinds of soil microorganisms, both beneficial and parasitic. The availability of nutrients released by root exudates is an important reason for the presence of these microorganisms, besides the rhizosphere is also an entry point for soil pathogens. This study aims to obtain, select and test the rhizosphere bacteria which have the antagonist…
ABSTRACT Plant roots are one of the factors that determine the growth, development, and yield of soybean plants. This is because roots are the first organ to respond to soil conditions. This study aims to determine genetic variation, heritability values, and correlations between characters on the rhizobox scale and field scale of several soybean genotypes. This research was conducted at Po…
