Abstract

Grain filling is not ideal when AB Mix is used as a rice fertilizer in a soilless culture method because it causes a lengthy vegetative phase and a brief generative phase. The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of ABC Mix (AB Mix + Silica) to two functional rice varieties: Black Madrass and A2 Variety. A factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD) including two factors and three replications, was used on the experimental design. The ABC Mix nutritional content (750-800 ppm, 1000-1050 ppm, 1250-1300 ppm, and 1500-1550 ppm) is the first factor, while the type of functional rice (black rice variety Black Madras and red rice variety A2) is the second. The results showed that the use of ABC mix 1000-1050 ppm on A2 red rice had a significant effect on the number of productive tillers (29.67 stems). The application of 1500-1550 ppm ABC mix showed a significant effect on the weight of 1000 grains (27.55 g), while the A2 red rice variety showed better performance based on plant height (86.64 cm). The silica content in ABC mix nutrients plays a role in strengthening plant tissue and increasing the efficiency of nutrient absorption so that it is directly able to increase the growth and yield of rice in the soilless culture system.

Abstract

Corn production in Jember has been declining every year due to soil fertility degradation caused by the unbalanced use of synthetic chemical fertilizers. Reducing fertilizer doses and adding POC (liquid organic fertilizer) made from banana pseudostems are expected to be a solution. The aim of this research is to examine the response of corn plants to the application of banana pseudostem liquid organic fertilizer (POC) concentrations and NPK doses. This study will be conducted from July to December 2024 using a factorial randomized block design (RBD). The first factor is the NPK fertilizer dosage, which consists of: 225 kg/ha, 200 kg/ha, and 175 kg/ha. The second factor is the concentration of banana pseudostem POC with control level, 200 ml/l, 250 ml/l, and 300 ml/l. The parameters observed included plant height, number of leaves, stem diameter, cob diameter, cob length, dry weight of the cob, sweetness content, and 100-seed weight. The results of this study show an interaction, particularly in stem diameter, where the best results were found in the treatment of 175 kg/ha + control with a result of 1.96 cm. It was found that the NPK dose of 175 kg/ha produced the best results in plant height (156.12 cm), number of leaves (10.29 leaves), and cob diameter (52.7 mm).
