Effect of Agrodyke and Liquid Organic Fertilizer of Coconut Water Waste on The Results of Siam Orange (Citrus nobilis var. MicrocarpaL.)

Abstract

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the dose of Agrodyke Fertilizer and the concentration of Liquid Organic Fertilizer from Coconut Water Waste on the yield of the Siamese orange (Citrus nobilis Var. Microcarpa L.) and its interactions, which were carried out in Bayung Gede Village, Kintamani District, Bangli Regency from December 2022 until July 2023. This study used a randomized block design (RBD) with 2 factors arranged factorially. The first factor tested was the dosage of Agrodyke (A) fertilizer which consisted of 4 levels: A0(0 g/tree), A1(50 g/tree), A2 (100 g/tree) and A3 (150 g/tree). While the second factor is the dose of Liquid Coconut Water Organic Fertilizer (K) which consists of 4 levels, namely: K0 (0 cc/l), K1 (5 cc/l), K2 (10 cc/l) and K3 (15 cc/l). l). Thus there were 16 combination treatments, each of which was repeated 3 times so that 48 citrus trees were needed. The results showed that the interaction between the doses of potassium nitrate and magnesium sulfate (AxK) fertilizer had no significant effect on all observed variables. The Agrodyke fertilizer treatment at a dose of 150 g/tree gave the highest fruit weight per tree, namely 9.76 kg or an increase of 54.18% when compared to control (A0), which was only 6.33 kg. The highest fruit weight per tree was obtained in the treatment in Liquid Organic Fertilizer Coconut Water Waste dose of 15 cc/l which is 8.63 kg, there is an increase of 15.83% compared to the control (K0), which is only 7.45 kg.
