APPLICATION OF WATER PROVISION ON THE GROWTH AND PRODUCTION OF SOYBEAN (Glycine max L)

Abstract

The most essentials factor underlying water management are the characteristics of plants to water requirements, the amount of water given, the irrigation methods, and the characteristics of the soil in storing water. The research purpose is to identify and determine the best irrigation method, which can increase the growth and production of soybean plants. Knowing the best method of giving water/irrigation that is able to maintain soil moisture for soybean plants. The experiment used a randomized block design consisting of four treatments, namely: A0 = Control, A1 = Sprinkle Method, A2 = furrow method, and A3 = Flood method. Each treatment was repeated three times. The data were analyzed statistically and if there was a significant effect, it would be continued with an test of honestly significant difference. The results showed that the Flood method gave the best effect on almost all parameters of growth and production observations and the highest yield for production per hectare was 4.32 tons.

Application of Organic Fertilizer Cow Dung and Biofertilizer in Shallots (Allium Acalonicum L.) in Lowland

“…Biofertilizers were microorganisms that live in the soil and were very helpful in the process of providing nutrients that were not available to be available. Biofertilizers have been widely sold and circulated and their use could significantly increase the production of shallots in tidal soils (Marlina et al, 2018b), rice in lowland and tidal lands (Marlina et al, 2014;2016: 2018a, soybeans in lowland land (Aminah et al, 2015: Marlina & Gusmiatun, 2020, sweet corn in lowland (Marlina et al, 2019). These biofertilizers contain microorganisms including Azotobacter, Azospirillum, phosphate solubilizing bacteria that could be useful in donating N, P, K nutrients through the work of nitrogenase and phosphatase enzymes (Suwandi et al, 2017).…”
