Organic matter content in the dryland farming system tends to decrease rapidlyin most of arid region of Eastern Indonesia. This experiment aimed to test that hypothesis by growing casava and mungbean with and without organic fertilizer (cattle manure) under monoculture and intercropping. The study used a factorial completely randomized block design. The first factor is two cropping systems, namely monoculture and intercropping, the second factor is 2 applications of organic fertilizer (compost), namely 1) No compost and 2) Compost. Each treatment uses 6 replications. The results showed a significant effect of treatment on cassava yield component and productivity, while mungbean growth and yield was similar between treatment. Cassava grown under intercropping system with additional cattle manure was significantly produced the longest tuber (71.40 cm) and the largest number of tubers (6.40 tubers.plant-1). It also contributed to the highest tuber productivity (28.40 t.h-1), followed by yield of casava under intercropping system without compost (26.00 t.h-1), then the casava monoculture system with compost (21.80 t.h-1). The least was the monoculture system without compost (21.70 t.h-1). This experiment proved that additional organic fertilizer under intercropping system could increase the productivity of dryland (LER = 2.13).

Une étude a été entreprise sur les Hautes Terres malgaches. L’objectif est d’évaluer l’effet de la poudre d’os et le fumier de zébu sur la croissance et le rendement de haricot (Phaseolus vulgaris). L’expérimentation a été mise en place avec un dispositif en blocs randomisés à quatre répétitions et quatre traitements : (1) parcelles témoins non fertilisées (T0) et parcelles fertilisées respectivement par (2) de fumier de zébu pur (Tfu), (3) de fumier de zébu combiné avec du N11P22K16 (Tfu+NPK) et (4) de fumier de zébu combiné avec de la poudre d’os (Tfu+os). Les résultats ont montré que la combinaison de fertilisants organiques et minéraux a offert de meilleures croissances (hauteur de la plante et nombre des feuilles) par rapport au simple apport de fertilisant organique. Par ailleurs, les rendements en grains de haricots ont été significativement plus élevés avec Tfu+os (1,77 t.ha-1) par rapport aux traitements Tfu+NPK (1,47 t.ha-1) et Tfu (1,32 t.ha-1). Ces trois traitements étant significativement plus élevés que le traitement témoin sans aucun apport de fertilisant T0 (0,73 t.ha-1). En conclusion, l’apport de la poudre d’os apparaît comme un bon substitut à l’emploi d’engrais de synthèse et pourrait être recommandé pour la production de haricot.Mots clés : Engrais minéral ; phénologie de haricot ; sol ferrallitique ; rendement de culture.   English Title: Bone powder and zebu manure effects on beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L) production in Highlands of MadagascarAn experiment was carried out in Highlands of Madagascar. This study aims to assess zebu bone powder and cattle manure effects in fertilization for common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) growth and yield. Four treatments were compared in a complete randomized block design with four replications: (1) no-fertilized control plots (T0) and fertilized plots respectively with (2) cattle manure only (Tfu); (3) mixed fertilization with cattle manure and N11P22K16 (Tfu+ N11P22K16); and (4) mixed fertilization with cattle manure and bone powder (Tfu + os). In result, mixed fertilizer with organic and mineral improved significantly bean growth parameters (plant height and number of leaf plant) compared with organic fertilizer alone. Bean grain yields were significantly higher with Tfu+os (1.77 t.ha-1) compared to Tfu + NPK (1.47 t.ha 1) and Tfu (1.32 t. ha-1) and which were not significantly different. The control T0 (0.73 t.ha-1) showed significantly lower yield than the three other treatments. In fact, bone powder could be encouraged locally as an alternative resource to synthetic fertilizer.Keywords: Mineral fertilization; bean phenology; ferralitic soil; crop yield.

ABSTRACT<br />Application of organic fertilizer into the soil is designated as a source of macro, micro nutrients and organic acids; it also acts as soil ameliorant that improve physical, chemical and biological properties of soil. Application of high rates organic fertilizer has a constraint namely the availability and ease of application. Therefore, it is necessary to learn the use of organic fertilizer with low rates to improve the efficiency of chemical fertilizers. This research was aimed to study the effect of organic and inorganic fertilizers on growth and yield of paddy rice, as well as the efficiency of N, P, K inorganic fertilizer. Field experiment was conducted at Sawah Baru Research Station, University Farm IPB, Bogor, West Java from September to December 2013. The experiment used Randomized Block Design consisted of two factors: rates of organic fertilizer (0, 250, 500, 750, and 1,000 kg ha-1), and rates of inorganic fertilizer (0, 100, 200, 300, and 400 kg ha-1). The results suggested that the application of 1,000 kg organic fertilizer ha-1 + 400 kg inorganic fertilizer ha-1 did not show significant interaction. Application of organic fertilizer alone up to 1,000 kg ha-1 resulted in low growth and yield. Increasing rates of  application up to 400 kg inorganic fertilizer ha-1 increased the growth and yield of paddy rice. The highest N efficiency was 89.19% at a rate of 500 kg organic fertilizer ha-1 + 200 kg inorganic fertilizer ha-1, whereas the highest efficiency of P and K, respectively were 69.55% and 92.52% at a rate of 750 kg organic fertilizer ha-1 + 300 kg inorganic fertilizer ha-1.<br />Keywords: NPK, organic fertilizer, paddy rice

This study was conducted to enhance the growth and yield performance of cacao trees under mature rubber for one (1) fruiting season through the integration of urea and vermicompost. The experimental design was set in factorial Randomized Complete Block Design with a total of 15 treatment combinations. The treatments were three rates of urea (0, 100 and 200 g/tree) and five rates of vermicompost (0, 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 and 6.0 kg/tree). The trunk circumference, leaf length and width, number of pods developed and harvested, pod and bean character, soil OM%, leaf Nitrogen content and prevalence of pest and diseases were evaluated. The application of 200g urea per tree produced significant increase from 4.86 to 8.44 kg (73.66% increase) in weight of harvested pods and from 23.32 to 26.40 g/pod (13.21% increase) dry bean weight and significant decrease in the pod index from 43.39 to 38.45 (11.36% decrease). Moreover, the heaviest and thickest pod husk was obtained from plants applied with 100 grams urea + 1.5 kg vermicompost. The highest mean number of beans/pod was obtained from trees applied with 100 – 200 g urea + 1.5 – 3.0 kg vermicompost.  The soil organic matter content (%) and leaf N was slightly increased by application of fertilizer treatments. Pod borer infestation and nematode population were significantly affected by application of urea and vermicompost. Application of 100 g urea/tree or 3.5 bags/ha gave the highest return of investment and was the most profitable source of nutrient.

Water spinach is a heavy metal accumulator plant if grown in polluted soils. This raises the concern of water spinach safety as one of the most consumed vegetables in Asian household. Land pollution in water spinach cultivation area can be caused by industrial activities that involve heavy metals such as tannery. Industrial waste such as chrome leaches to the water system that eventually will be used as irrigation source for agriculture. Organic fertilizer is a potential solution to increase water spinach growth, yield, and absorb heavy metal contaminants. This research evaluated the effect of type and dosage of organic fertilizer on water spinach that grown in chromium-polluted soils. This research design used Randomized Block Design (RBD) with nine treatments and three replication. The treatment of combination of types and dosages of organic fertilizer. There were dried leaves, goat manure, and vermicompost with dosage of 5 t ha-1, 10 t ha-1 and 15 t ha-1. The results of this research showed that the effect of combination of organic fertilizer type and dosages at chrome polluted media gave better effect on growth, and yield of water spinach. Giving vermicompost of 15 t ha-1 gaves better effect on plant height, fresh weight of plant, and dry weight of plant, meanwhile the doses of 5 t ha-1dried leaves showed the lowest chrome content compared to other treatments, but these plants are still unsafe for consumption due to high chrome content.Keywords: water spinach, organic fertilizer, chromium, yield
