ABSTRACTTomato is a type of vegetable that has several varieties, one of which is a type of tomato cerasiforme (Dun.) Alef. Known as cherry tomatoes which have the characteristics of small and round fruit. Lower tomato production in Indonesia instead of varieties that are not planted are suitable, technical culture is not good, and the conversion of agricultural functions that use agricultural land is increasingly limited. To approve the results of production and community needs for a good tomato plant then began to be asked to cherry tomato planting techniques in Gapoktan Lembang Agri. The research method began with processing, planting, maintenance, harvesting to post-harvest. The results of the Gapoktan Lembang Agri West Java research application of cultivation techniques of cherry tomato plants that produce quality cherry tomatoes are marketed overseas such as SingaporeKeywords : Tomato, West Java, Harvest, Post Harvest ABSTRAKTomat merupakan jenis sayuran buah yang memiliki beberapa jenis varietas salah satunya yaitu jenis varietas tomat  cerasiforme (Dun.) Alef.  Dikenal dengan tomat cherry yang memiliki ciri khas berbuah kecil dan bulat. Rendahnya produksi tomat di Indonesia diduga disebabkan varietas yang ditanam tidak cocok, kultur teknis yang kurang baik, serta alih fungsi lahan pertanian yang menyebabkan lahan pertanian semakin sempit. Untuk memenuhi hasil produksi dan kebutuhan masyarakat akan tanaman tomat yang baik maka mulai  dilakukannya penerapan teknik budidaya tomat cherry di Gapoktan Lembang Agri Jawa Barat. Metode penelitian yaitu mulai dengan melakukan pengolahan lahan, penanaman, pemeliharan, panen hingga pasca panen. Hasil penelitian Gapoktan Lembang Agri penerapan teknik budidaya tanaman tomat cherry yang baik menghasilkan tomat cherry yang berkualitas yang dipasarkan hingga ke luar negeri seperti SingapuraKata Kunci : Tomat, Jawa Barat, Panen, Pasca panen

HIGHLIGHTS Irrigation with saline effluent from fish farming does not reduce cherry tomato fruit production. The use of saline effluent from fish farming in irrigation reduces production and vigor of cherry tomato seeds. Application of effluent in the appropriate stages promotes production of fruits and seeds of cherry tomato equal to those of the control.

Integration of intensive aquaculture systems with greenhouse plant production has been shown to improve aquaculture water quality conditions and improve plant nutrient use efficiency. The majority of the focus of integrated systems has involved raft culture or true hydroponics. Little work has been done on soilless culture utilizing drip irrigation. This study investigates the feasibility of integrating biofloc Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) production with greenhouse cherry tomato production (Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme). Nile tilapia (157 g/fish) were stocked at 40 fish/m3 and grown for 149 days. The cherry tomato cvs. “Favorita” and “Goldita” were grown with aquaculture effluent (AE) waste and compared to plants grown with conventional fertilizer (CF) in soilless culture. Plants were grown for 157 days. Few differences in yield occurred between treatments until fish harvest (117 DAT). Post fish harvest, there was an 18.4% difference in total yield between CF and AE at crop termination for “Favorita”. Differences in yield between AE and CF were observed for “Goldita” at fish harvest (117 DAT) and crop termination (157 DAT). Results from this study suggest the potential for successful integration of cherry tomato grown in a substrate-based system with AE from a tilapia biofloc production system.

Less or no fertilizer use compromises growth and yield of cherry tomato (Solanum lycopersicum var. Cerasiforme) in Uganda. A study was conducted to determine the effect of nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) fertilizer rates on cherry tomato growth and yield. The experiment was conducted in a field during 2016B and 2017A seasons at Namulonge. The treatments included; (100, 60, 100) and (200, 60, 200) kg ha-1 of N, P, K and the control with no fertilizer application, these were laid out in a split plot design with three replications. Results revealed that tomato plants significantly (P < 0.05) responded to nitrogen and potassium fertilizer application by increasing their height and yield. The highest tomato height and yield were obtained from plots applied with 100, 60, 100 kg ha-1 of N, P and K. This rate was considered as the optimal application rate because plants applied with fertilizer above this rate were observed to have low height and yield. On the other hand, plants applied with nitrogen and potassium fertilizers below 100, 60, 100 kg ha-1, flowered and matured earlier than those in the control plots. The study showed that N and K fertilizer influenced plant height, flowering, maturity period and yield of cherry tomato. Based on these findings, use of 100, 60, 100 kg ha-1 of N, P and K is recommended for improving cherry tomato production in central Uganda, where the study was conducted, and any fertilizer rate above 100, 60, 100 kg ha-1 in the same area may be un-economical to use in cherry tomato growing.
