Abstract

Field experiments were done in 2018 and 2019 at Fedis and Erer to determine the effect of intercropping sorghum with soybean on grain yield. Seed yields were higher in the sole crops of sorghum and soybean than in the individual components of the intercrops. This is due to the crops' compete of nutrients, light, water, and other factors. The yields of the intercrop's component crops varied greatly depending on the variety. The sorghum/soybean ‘Teshale/Awasa-95’ intercrops were more productive than the sorghum/soybean ‘Dhaqaba/Awasa-95’ intercrops, which had an LER (land equivalent ratio) of 1.14. Intercropping sorghum ‘Teshale’ with soybean ‘Awasa-95’ resulted in maximum grain production and LER greater than one, showing that intercropping has an advantage over solely planting. As a result, intercropping sorghum and soybean is compatible, desirable, and more advantageous for increasing production than solely cropping under the same conditions.

Abstract

Groundnut is a versatile and economically significant plant that has played a prominent role in human history. Using additive main effects and multiplicative interaction analysis, the performance of 12 groundnut genotypes was assessed in six environments across four sites. Highly significant genotypes and GE interactions were found in the mean squares of the analysis of variance for seed yield per hectare. Environment-related differences made for 53.25% of the overall variation, whereas genotype was responsible for 43.73% of it. For 84.93% of the overall variation, the biplot was responsible. The most stable models according to the AMMI model were 19748 and 19750. As a result, these genotypes are thought to be the most suitable ones for the study locations. The candidate variety 19748 is stable and high yielding, with a yield advantage of about 18 percent above the standard check Babile-2.Then suggested to release and further multiply as a commercial variety at study and similar agro-ecology.

Abstract

Guano fertilizer is a fertilizer derived from bat dung which is organic fertilizer, and contains a lot of P elements that can increase plant growth both vegetatively and generatively. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the application of Banana Stem POC and Guano fertilizer (Bat Manure) on soil P availability and growth of oil palm seedlings in the Main-Nursery. The experimental design used was a factorial Randomized Group Design with three replications. The treatments were arranged in four levels each of Banana Stem POC (C0 = Control, C1 = 1.5 ml/l water/Polybeg, C2 = 3 ml/l water/Polybeg, C3 = 4.5 ml/l water/Polybeg) and Guano Fertilizer (K0 = Control, K1 = 200 g/Polybeg, K2 = 400 g/Polybeg, K3 = 600 g/Polybeg). Banana stem is an agricultural waste that can be used as a useful product because it contains potential compounds, while Bat guano fertilizer has several advantages, namely it can stay longer in soil tissue, increase soil productivity and provide food for plants. These results show that the application of Banana Stem POC and Guano Fertilizer can increase the growth of plant height, stem diameter, leaf area and P available.

Abstract

This study, conducted at the Experimental Garden of the Faculty of Agriculture, Amir Hamzah University, Medan, aimed to evaluate the effects of liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) derived from banana peels and tempeh waste on peanut plant growth and yield. The study employed a factorial RBD (randomized block design), examining 2 factors. The first factor involved varying concentrations of LOF from banana peels: P0 = control (no application), P1 = 500 ml/plot, P2 = 1000 ml/plot, and P3 = 1500 ml/plot. The second factor assessed LOF from tempeh waste at different levels: T0 = control (no application), T1 = 0.750 liters of tempeh waste/1 liter of water/plot, T2 = 1.5 liters of tempeh waste/1 liter of water/plot, and T3 = 2.25 liters of tempeh waste/1 liter of water/plot. Parameters observed included plant height, number of branches, flowering age, number of pods per plant, number of filled pods per plant, weight of 100 seeds per plot, and production per plot. Results showed significant effects of tempeh waste-derived LOF on plant height, flowering age, number of pods per plant, number of filled pods per plant, and production per plot. Particularly, Level T3 (2.25 liters of tempeh waste/1 liter of water/plot) yielded optimal results across all parameters. Conversely, the application of LOF from banana peels showed no significant impact on observed parameters, and no interaction was observed between the two treatments.
