This research aimed to determine the effect and the best granular KCl fertilizer dosage in increasing K-available, K-Uptake, and yield of sweet corn (Zea mays saccharata Sturt.) Talenta variety on Inceptisols from Jatinangor. The method used was a randomized completely block design (RCBD) with nine treatments and three replications. The treatment consists of the without fertilization as control (A; N, P, K (B); ¼ K + N, P (C); ½ K + N, P (D); ¾ K + N, P (E); 1 K + N, P (F); 1¼ K + N, P (G); 1½ K + N, P (H); and 1¾ K + N, P (I). The results showed that granular KCl fertilizer affected available K, K uptake, and sweet corn yields. The dose of fertilizer that had the best effect on sweet corn yield was a combination of 1 K + N, P single with 100 kg ha-1 KCl granules which produced a cob weight of 0.49 kg plant-1 on Inceptisol from Jatinangor.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
