Study of Development Potential Chrysanthemum in Buleleng Regency

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the potential of agro-climate, technology of cultivation, harvest and postharvest chrysanthemums. This study uses survey method, through the collection of primary data and secondary data. This research is located in the village of Pancasari, District Sukasada, Buleleng Bali Province. Descriptive survey conducted on 40 respondents chrysanthemum growers using the component identification of determinants of commodity production chrysanthemum include: site selection, infrastructure, crop production processes and post-harvest handling. The survey results showed that 100% of the farmers have chosen a suitable location with agro-climatic conditions required by the chrysanthemum plant, and 86.09% of the farmers have been using the means needed to support the process of crop production. In the process of production of 78% in accordance with the operational procedures. At the stage of harvest and post-harvest handling 80% have been implemented by farmers and some still use conventional methods of handling. Thus Pancasari village has a potential location for the cultivation of chrysanthemum as a mainstay commodity.

Prospects of Chrysanthemum Development in North Sulawesi

“…Currently, the cultivation of chrysanthemums in greenhouses is still using conventional methods so that it is difficult to regulate the watering process and light, which causes delays in the flowering of chrysanthemums. [8] The purpose of making protected houses is to obtain suitable microclimate conditions and protect plants from pests and direct environmental stresses to obtain optimal results in the environment where they grow. In the preparation of a protected house that needs to be considered are the design, shape, materials protected by the house, height, roof, and walls of the protected house.…”

“…The geographical condition of Tomohon City which has Mount Lokon which is still active, located 600-800 m above sea level, makes this plant fertile and quickly adapts to an environment that supports the development of its cultivation. According to [8], chrysanthemum cultivation will be successful if 95% of the environmental conditions meet the cultivation criteria. Furthermore, it is said that chrysanthemum flowers can grow well, at an altitude of about 600-1200 m above sea level.…”

Respon Perbedaan Lama Penyinaran Terhadap Pertumbuhan dan Pembungaan 3 Jenis Krisan Pot (Chrysanthemum sp.)

“…Tujuan dari perusahaan yang mengembangkan tanaman hias secara komersil yaitu untuk mendapatkan kualitas bunga yang diminati pasar dengan waktu yang singkat tetapi memenuhi standar. Menurut Arjana et al (2015) pada umumnya penambahan cahaya pada krisan pot dilakukan selama 3 sampai 6 minggu tergantung teknik budidaya dan kultivarnya. Karena setiap jenis krisan memiliki kecepatan tumbuh berbeda maka perlakuan penambahan penyinaran (long day) tidak dapat dilakukan bersamaan.…”

The Evaluation of Chrysanthemum Clones Under Low Elevation

“…Planting at low and medium elevations is one challenging question from many stakeholders that should be answered to widen the prospective production area. Under low and medium elevations, several environmental conditions might deviate from and not be as conducive as those in highland where the plants might get the optimum growth (Arjana, Situmeang, & Suaria, 2015). There was no available scientific report related to successful chrysanthemum plantation with a set of environmental condition on such targeted site.…”
