<p>Bawang merah termasuk sayuran bumbu yang dibutuhkan oleh masyarakat dan harganya bersifat fluktuatif sehingga diperlukan kecukupan produksi untuk mendukung kestabilan harga. Kecukupan produksi dapat tercapai melalui pemanfaatan lahan marjinal seperti Ultisol yang masih luas dan perbaikan teknik budidaya, di antaranya melalui aplikasi pupuk Mikotricho. Tujuan penelitian adalah mengkaji pupuk Mikotricho dengan pengurangan dosis N-P-K terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil bawang merah. Penelitian berupa percobaan lapang di lahan Ultisol menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok Lengkap faktorial dengan tiga ulangan. Faktor pertama, dosis pupuk Mikotricho, yaitu 10 g, 30 g, dan 50 g/tanaman, faktor kedua, pengurangan dosis N-P-K berupa Urea, SP-36, KCl, dan ZA, yaitu 0, 25%, dan 50% dari rekomendasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan, aplikasi pupuk Mikotricho meningkatkan jumlah daun (11,4%) dan bobot tanaman segar (49,1%) bawang merah secara linier positif dengan dosis terbaik 50 g/tanaman. Hasil umbi/rumpun dan per petak efektif (0,64 m2) dosis pupuk Mikotricho, 10 g, 30 g, dan 50 g/tanaman tidak berbeda. Pengurangan dosis N-P-K dari rekomendasi berpengaruh terhadap jumlah anakan dan bobot segar tanaman bawang merah dengan efek linier negatif, namun pengurangan 25% dosis N-P-K dapat dipilih. Pengaruh interaksi pupuk Mikotricho dengan pengurangan dosis N-P-K terjadi pada kehijauan daun dan luas daun. Pemberian pupuk Mikotricho dosis 10 g hingga 30 g/tanaman dengan pengurangan dosis N-P-K 25% hingga 50% dari rekomendasi meningkatkan kehijauan daun dan luas daun bawang merah. Implikasi dari penelitian ini adalah diperlukan sosialisasi pemanfaatan pupuk Mikotricho pada budidaya tanaman bawang merah atau tanaman sayuran lain untuk mengurangi pemakaian pupuk sintetik dan perlu dukungan industri pembuatan pupuk Mikotricho.</p><p><strong>Keywords</strong></p><p>Mikoriza; <em>Trichoderma</em>; N-P-K; Bawang merah; Lahan marginal</p><p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>Shallots are a spice vegetable needed by the community.
