Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effect of planting media composition and NPK Mutiara fertilizer application on the growth and yield of cherry tomato plants (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill.) in North Sumatra. The research method used a factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD) with two factors: planting media composition (topsoil, cow manure/compost/chicken manure, and rice husk) and NPK Mutiara fertilizer dosage (0, 15, 25, and 35 g/plot). The observed parameters included plant height, number of leaves, number of productive branches, number of fruits per plant, number of fruits per sample, fruit weight per plot, and fruit diameter. The results showed that neither the single effect nor the interaction between planting media and NPK Mutiara fertilizer had a statistically significant effect on the growth and yield of cherry tomatoes. Environmental factors are presumed to be more dominant in influencing the results. Keywords: planting media, NPK fertilizer, growth, yield

Abstract

The oyster mushroom cultivation skills training for students is carried out as a strategic effort to equip the younger generation with technical skills and foster an entrepreneurial spirit in the agribusiness sector. This activity is motivated by the limited practical competence of students in developing economically valuable agricultural businesses, so that the need for applied training relevant to the needs of the job market and independent business opportunities. The purpose of this activity is to improve students' technical skills in oyster mushroom cultivation and foster knowledge, attitudes, and interest in agribusiness-based entrepreneurship. The implementation method includes interactive lectures, demonstrations, direct practice, and group discussions held at P4S Cendawan Eduwisata Medan. Evaluation was carried out through pre-tests and post-tests as well as observation of participant skills during the activity. The results of the training showed a significant increase in students' technical skills with an average increase of 63.2%, including the ability to create planting media, inoculation of seeds, maintenance, up to harvesting and post-harvest handling. In addition, students' knowledge and interest in entrepreneurship also increased by 54.2%. These results demonstrate that the training is effective in developing an entrepreneurial mindset and enhancing students' readiness to develop modern agricultural-based businesses, particularly oyster mushroom cultivation. Therefore, this activity plays a crucial role in developing innovative, independent, and competitive young entrepreneurs in the agribusiness sector.
