Abstract

Sorghum is a multipurpose crop used as food, feed, organic fertilizer, and bioherbicide. Water extracts from main and ratoon plants with leaf, stem, and root organs produced in swamplands as bioherbicides are interesting topics to research. The research aims to determine the potential of water extracts from main and ratoon plants with leaf, stem, and root organs produced in swamplands as bioherbicides. The research was conducted from November 2020 to May 2021 (stalk preparation) and October 2022 (bioassay test) in Bentiring Permai, Muara Bangkahulu, Bengkulu City. This research applied a randomized group design. The bioassay experiment was arranged factorially with two factors. The first factor is the type of plant, with two levels, namely the main plant and the ratoon plant. The second factor is the source of the extract, with three levels: leaves, stems, and roots. The experiment was repeated four times, and the experimental unit was a petri dish. Each petri dish was given 10 ml of water extract, planted 25 sorghum seeds of the Suri 3 variety were incubated for four days. The results showed a diversity of plant species and organs in producing allelopathy. Water extracts derived from ratoon plant stems and main plant roots produce good inhibition, so they have the potential to be the best bioherbicide

Abstract

The sorghum plant is a multi-functional plant, namely as food, feed, organic fertilizer, and organic herbicide. As an organic herbicide, sorghum plants contain allelopathy. Water extracts derived from the leaf organs of sorghum ratoon plants are interesting things to study related to the effect of allelopathy on test plants. The research aims to determine the potential of extracts derived from the leaf organs of ratoon plants of several sorghum varieties produced on inceptisols land as organic herbicides. The research was conducted from March to September 2022 at Kandang Mas, Kampung Melayu District, Bengkulu City (preparation of ratoon plants). In May 2023 at Bentiring Permai, Muara Bangkahulu District, Bengkulu City (bioassay test). The study used a single-factor, completely randomized design. The treatment of extracts derived from leaf organs, the level is control, leaves of ratun plant variety Numbu, leaves of ratun plant variety Super 1, and leaves of ratun plant variety Super 2. Using the bioassay method in Petri dishes repeated four times. Each petri dish was given 10 ml of extract, sown with 20 mung bean seeds of Vima 3 variety, and incubated for three days. The results showed that the water extract from the leaf organ of the ratoon plant variety Super 1 produced the highest inhibition against the test plant. The leaf organ of the sorghum ratoon plant variety Super 1 has better potential as an organic herbicide
