This research was conducted on post-eruption land area near Mount Merapi in Central Java Indonesia with the addition of goat manure of 30 tons/ha using factorial experiment prepared in Randomized Block Design (RAKL), with two treatment factors, and the treatment was repeated three times. The first factor was the source of potassium: no potassium, KCl, KNO 3 . Second factor source was Sulfur: without sulfur, ZA, Petro-Cas. The data were analyzed by variance, if there is real difference followed by LSD test 1%. The results show that ( 1) Fertilization of KNO 3 and ZA(NH 4 )2SO 4 in onion plants shows the highest yield on fresh weight of onion tubers per clump and per square meter; (2) Fertilization of KNO 3 without the addition of sulfur to obtain dry weight of the lowest weight of onion tubers per clump and per square meter; (3) Fertilization of KCl and ZA (NH 4 )2SO 4 on onion plant causes the highest water content on dried onion tubers; and (4) Fertilization of KCl and Petro-Cas (CaSO 4 ) 2H 2 O on onion plants yields the highest number of essential oil.
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.
