APLIKASI MEDIA BEKAS JAMUR TIRAM DAN PUPUK GUANO TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN BIBIT KELAPA SAWIT (Elaeis guineensis Jacq) DI MAIN-NURSERY

Abstract

Palm oil (Elaeis guineensis jacq) is one of the plantation commodities that become the mainstay of indonesia. The provision of good and healthy seedlings while in main nursery is very much an influence for the growth of oil palm plants. the application of media used oyster mushrooms and guano fertilizer is expected to overcome the problem of physical, chemical and biological properties of Ultisol, in addition to also able to save the environment from waste pollution used oyster mushroom planting. The research was conducted experimentally using a factorial randomized design (ral) with 2 factors. the first factor is media (m) which consists of 3 (three) levels, and the second factor is guano fertilizer (g) consisting of 3 (three) levels, so that there are 9 combinations of treatments. each combination of treatments consists of 3 (three) replays, then obtained 27unit experiments. in one experimental unit consists of 3 plants, two plants are sampled. The observation data is analyzed statistically using sidik ragam and continued with duncan multiple range test (dmrt) level 5%.  The application of media used oyster mushrooms and guano fertilizer has a real effect on the height of plants, leaf length, number of leaves, leaf area and diameter of palm seed stems in main-nursery, where the combination of media pmk + former oyster mushroom media (2:1) with guano fertilizer 200 grams / plant gives the best results.
