Last researchers reported that Tithonia diversifolia (Mexican sunflower) could replace 25% to 50% of N and K of commercial fertilizer applied in chili production on the first and second planting time in the Ultisols of West Sumatra. A Continuation field experiments was conducted to find out the the appropriate NK cobination sources should be added on the third season to get the higest yield of maize. The treatments were the combination of NK T. diversifolia + NK commercial fertilizer which is maize needed. There were 9 treatmens such as A(0%+0%); B(0%+0%); C(50%+25%); D (50%+25%); E(25%+75%); F(25%+75%); G(50%%+50%); H(50%%+50%); and Control (0+100%). The results showed that integrated use 50% NK from tithonia with 25% NK from commercial fertilizer is the appropriate NK combination to get the higest yield (5ton ha -1 )of maize on the third season in Ultisols, if on the first season for chili planting time have reseived as 50% + 50% and on the second season for chili planting as much 25%+75% NK from titonia and NK from commercial fertilizer.
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.
