The Influence of Cow Manure and Mycorrhiza Application in Oil Palm(Elaeis guineensis Jacq.)Growth on Pre Nursery

摘要

The objective of this study was to know the influence of cow manure and mycorrhiza dosages on growth of oil palm seedling in pre nursery.This study has been done in INSTIPER(Educational and Research Garden in Stiper Agricultural Institute)at Maguwoharjo,Depok,Sleman,Yogyakarta,Indonesia in March until December 2021.The experimental design used was Completely Randomized Design with two factors.The first factor was 4 dosages of cow manures with volume comparison of subsoil:C1(30% of cow manure),C2(40% of cow manure),C3(50% of cow manure).The second factor was 3 dosages of mycorrhiza consist of M0(no mycorrhiza),M1(10 g mycorrhiza)and M2(20 g mycorrhiza).The study used five replications.Data were analyzed by ANOVA(Analysis of Variance)followed by DMRT(Duncan Multiple Range Test)at 5% significant level.The result showed no significant interaction between cow manure and mycorrhiza dosages application.Mycorrhiza significantly influenced plant height,sum of leaves,stem diameter,crown dry weight and root dry weight.Mycorrhiza on 20 g was the best.
