Pengaruh Pupuk Kandang Ayam Dan Pupuk Npk Pada Pertumbuhan Dan Produksi Tanaman Okra (Abelmoschus Esculentus L.)
ABSTRACT Okra is a plant that provides many health benefits. The low productivity of okra in Riau is partly caused by poor soil fertility. This study aims to determine the interaction between the application of chicken manure and NPK fertilizer on the growth and yield of okra plants, as well as to identify the optimum dosage of both fertilizers. The experiment was conducted using a factorial randomized block design (RBD) with two factors. The first factor was chicken manure with four dosage levels (0, 10, 15, and 20 t/ha), and the second factor was NPK fertilizer with three dosage levels (100, 150, and 200 kg/ha). The observed parameters included plant height, flowering time, first harvest time, fruit length, fruit diameter, number of fruits per plant, total fruit number per m², and total fruit weight per plant. The results of the study showed that the interaction of chicken manure and NPK fertilizer had no significant effect on all observation parameters except the fruit weight parameter per plant. However, the application of chicken manure at a dosage of 20 t/ha increasing okra growth in terms of initial plant, final plant height at harvest and number of fruits per m2. Application of NPK fertilizer at a dose of 200 kg/ha increased initial plant height at flowering and final plant height at harvest.
