PENGARUH PUPUK ORGANIK DAN MOL (MIKROORGANISME LOKAL) DARI BONGGOL PISANG TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN TANAMAN KEDELAI (GLYCINE MAX MERILL)

Abstract

This research aimed to study the effect of interaction between organic fertilizer and MOL dose of banana weevil on soybean growth. The research was carried out at the UNSRAT Experimental Garden, at Wailan, Tomohon, from May to September 2020. The research in the form of a pot experiment was designed using a factorial randomized block design. The treatment consisted of, Factor I (A) = Type of Organic fertilizer. A0 = No organic fertilizer, A1 = 20 tons/ha of manure, A2 = 20 tons/ha of kitchen waste fertilizer. Factor II (B) = MOL dose of banana weevil. B0 = No MOL; B1 = 0.5 liter MOL ; B2 = 1 liter MOL, B3 = 1.5 liter MOL. Each treatment was repeated three times to obtain 36 experimental pots. The variables observed were the height and weight of soybean plants. The data were analyzed using analysis of variance and if there was a treatment effect, it was continued with the Least Significant Difference Test (BNT 5%). The results showed that the interaction effect between organic fertilizer and MOL dose was not significant on plant height and plant weight of soybeans. The treatment of organic fertilizer and the dose of MOL alone had an effect on plant height and weight of soybean plants. The highest soybean crop was without organic fertilizer application but for the MOL treatment it gave the highest plant. The highest soybean plant weight was at 20 tons of manure/ha.
