Abstract

This research aims to examine the effect of Silica fertilizer on cayenne pepper (Capsicum frutescens) under water stress conditions on the growth and yield of chili plants. The study was designed with a 2-factor treatment arranged in a completely randomized design (CRD). The treatments tested were the effects of various concentration of Silica fertilizer (0 ml/l, 2 ml/l, and 4 ml/l) under different soil moisture conditions (80%, 100%, and 120% field capacity). The parameters observed included plant height, canopy width, stem diameter, number of productive branches, number of flowers, number of fruits per plant, and fruit weight per plant. The results showed that the use of Silica fertilizer at different concentration under water stress conditions had no significant effect on growth parameters such as plant height, canopy width, and stem diameter. However, the application of 4 ml/l Silica fertilizer resulted in better outcomes compared to plants with no Silica or 2 ml/l Silica in terms of yield parameters, such as fruit set percentage, number of harvested fruits, and fruit weight. The best interaction between Silica fertilizer treatment and water stress conditions was found in the S2KL1 treatment (4 ml/l Silica, 80% field capacity) and S2KL2 treatment (4 ml/l Silica, 100% field capacity).

Abstract

Cayenne pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.) is an agricultural commodity with a high economic value. Increasing cayenne pepper production in dry lands is hampered by limited water availability. Therefore, water use efficiency is required, one of which is the implementation of drip irrigation. This study aimed to test the performance of a drip irrigation system in the cayenne pepper farmland of Slengen Village, which is located in the lowlands with a dry climate (D4). Emitter discharge, emitter flow rate, and crop water requirements were used to determine the length of time the drip irrigation system was operational at each growth phase. The results show that the emitter discharge uniformity coefficient was 86.6% with a droplet distribution efficiency of 89.80%, which is included in the good category. This indicates that the drip irrigation system is suitable for irrigating plants evenly within the required water volume.
