Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the response of growth and production of sweet potatoes (Ipomea batatas L.) due to the application of TSP fertilizer and cow manure, carried out in Huta I Silau Bayu, Gunung Maligas District, Simalungun Regency, North Sumatra, from May to August 2024. The study used a factorial Randomized Block Design (RAK), with 2 factors. The first factor is TSP fertilizer with 4 levels, namely P1 = 20.4g / plot, P2 = 40.8g / plot, P3 = 61.2g / plot, P4 = 81.6g / plot. The second factor is Cow Manure with 4 levels, namely: S0 = No Treatment, S1 = 5.1kg / plot, S2 = 10.2kg / plot, S3 = 15.3kg / plot. Observed parameters were Tendrils Length (cm) at 3 and 5 MST, Number of Bulbs Per Plant (fruit), Number of Bulbs Per Plot (bulbs), Bulb Weight Per Plant (g) and Bulb Weight Per Plot (kg). The results showed that TSP fertilizer application significantly affected Tendrils Length (cm) at 3 and 5 MST, Number of Bulbs Per Plant (bulbs), Number of Bulbs Per Plot (bulbs), Bulb Weight Per Plant (g) and Bulb Weight Per Plot (kg). The best dose of TSP fertilizer was found in the treatment of 30 tons/ha: 15.3 kg/plot. Cow Manure treatment significantly affected Tendrils Length (cm) at 3 and 5 MST, Number of Bulbs Per Plant (bulbs), Number of Bulbs Per Plot (bulbs), Bulb Weight Per Plant (g) and Bulb Weight Per Plot (kg). The best dose of cow manure was found in the treatment of 160 kg/ha: 81.6 g/plot. The interaction treatment of TSP fertilizer and Cow Manure fertilizer significantly affected the Length of Tendrils (cm) at the age of 3 and 5 MST, Number of Bulbs Per Plant (bulbs), Number of Bulbs Per Plot (bulbs), and Bulb Weight Per Plot (kg). It had no significant effect on Bulb Weight Per Plant (g). The best interaction treatment was in the TSP treatment (30 tons/ha: 15.3 kg/plot) with cow manure (160 kg/ha: 81.6 g/plot).

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the form of partnership implementation between turnip farmers and PT VAI, examine the benefits of this form of partnership for turnip farmers, and analyze turnip farming income. This study was conducted in Purba District, Simalungun Regency. Farmers in Nagori Pamatang Purba were designated as sample villages from the population that became research respondents. The sampling technique and population in this study used Purposive Sampling and Snowball techniques. The data analysis method used descriptive analysis of PT VAI's contract with partner farmers, farm income analysis, and R/C Ratio. The results of the study indicate that the form of partnership between PT VAI and turnip farmers in Purba District is a subcontract form. Where farmers and PT VAI have a contract regarding seeds, production prices and product quality. The benefits that are definitely obtained by farmers as partners include being able to help in procuring seeds. Farmers get convenience for seeds because they do not have to do their own seeding, thereby reducing the risk of failure because the seeds are ready to plant. The benefits of marketing guarantees provide a guarantee that the resulting product will be immediately sellable. One hundred percent of turnip farmer respondents answered that they received benefits in marketing convenience. This aligns with the initial rationale and hope for joining, which is that farmers won't have to search for markets to sell their products. Marketing guarantees can also motivate farmers to produce according to PT VAI's criteria so their products are accepted. Radish farming in Pematang Purba Village generates substantial income and is considered viable, as the R/C ratio analysis shows a value of 3.01, meaning that for every Rp 1.00 spent, a return of Rp 3.01 is generated.
