Abstract

We observed that physical and chemical properties of sago palm growing in three subdistricts of Southeast Sulawesi Province were different with sago growing area in Papua and North Maluku Provinces. Soil texture was loamy to silty loam, BD was 0.598 to 1.360 g/cm3 and water table was 20 to 150 cm depth. Soil pH was 5.21 to 6.34, available P, total N, and exchangeable K, Ca and Mg was low to very low. C-organic was variable from low to very high. Average of monthly rainfall was 56 to 79 mm month-1 in dry season to 200 to 450 mm month-1 in wet season, temperature was 15 to 34o C in Southeast Sulawesi Province. Agronomic characteristics indecated that there are three sago types was observed in Southeast Sulawesi Province, more the seven types of sago palm was observed in Sentani Papua Province and five types of sago palm was observed in Noth Maluku Province. The average of trunk fresh weight was 822 kg/palm on spiny type sago to 2093 kg/palm on nonspiny type sago. Plant age of sago palm at harvest time was 6.40 years after trunk form on spiny type sago and 9.75 year after trunk form on nonspiny type sago. We concluded that the diversity and biomass potential of sago palm grown in Sentani Papua Province was higher than sago palm grown in Maba North Maluku and Southeast Sulawesi Provinces.

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to find out the respond growth and production of local upland rice Sultra’s on the watering volume. The research was conducted in green house sized 4x10 m, from April to August 2015. This study tested four (4) cultivation local upland rice Sultra in the pot and treated with sub-optimum and optimal water levels of 25%, 50%, 100% and 150%. The experiment was conducted by using factorial desing of two factors of randoming complete block design (RCBD) with three replications, where first factor is W (water level) is comprised of four levels; W1 (25%), W2 (50%), W3 (100%), and W4 (150%). Second factor is cultivars upland rice local comprised of four levels; V1 (cultivar pae dai Ngalaru), V2 (cultivar pae Uba), V3 (cultivar pae Bou) and V4 (cultivar pae Bandoeha). The parameter observed were t plant height of the number of maximum tiller, number of leave, dry weight, dry weight of root, number of productive tiller, days to flowering, weight of 1000 rice, number of grain per tiller, the percentage of empty grain per tiller (%),  blossoming age,  and number of dry grain per tree
