An important factor in the productivity of potatoes is the procurement of quality potato seeds. Procurement of potato seeds can be done several ways, one of which is by cuttings. Giving plant hormones in cuttings can encourage and accelerate the formation of roots, stimulate the formation of new shoots, and increase the number and quality of shoots and roots. This study uses a split plot design factorial with the first factor is the influence of various kinds of leaf fertilizer consisting of 3 levels, namely PAB (AB Mix), PGD (Gandasil D) and PG (Growmore), and the second factor is some natural plant hormones which consists of Z0 (Rootone F / control), Z1 (bamboo shoots), Z2 (coconut water), Z3 (aloe vera) and Z4 (shallots). All treatments were repeated 3 times. The data obtained were analyzed using orthogonal contrast for treatment vs. control testing. F test to determine diversity, if there is diversity of treatment followed by BNJ test level of 5%. Observation variables included: when the roots appeared, plant height, number of leaves, and stem diameter.The results showed that there was no interaction between the administration of leaf fertilizer with extracts of some plant hormones, only that the treatment of the leaves of the gandasil D fertilizer had a very significant effect on plant height parameters, with an average of 6.57 cm. whereas in orthogonal analysis the contrast between control and treatment, control tends to be higher in value.

Urban farming activities with hydroponics techniques is one of the positive activities that can improve the creativity of people in urban areas. Urban farming activities can help improve the quality of people's lives, the environment, and play a role in maintaining food security. The study consisted of independent variables consisting of several groups, namely control (AB-Mix), 0.5 ppm of IAA (Indole Acetic Acid), BAP (Benzyl Adenine Purine) 0.5 and 1.0 ppm, and combination of IAA / BAP 0.5 /1.0 ppm. The purpose of this study was to study the effect of these treatments on water spinach plant yields that include leaves number, plant height, antioxidant content, and water content. The results of morphological growth showed that treatment with IAA 0.5 ppm was the most optimal while treatment with 1.0 ppm BAP had the average of the shortest plant height, the average number of leaves at least, and the shortest root length average. While the chlorophyll test showed that the system unit with the treatment of 0.5 ppm IAA had the highest total chlorophyll content with an average of 9.55 μg/ml. From the overall result, it can be assumed that the IAA of 0.5 ppm has the most positive effect on water spinach among other treatments.

ABSTRAK<br />Dalam upaya pengembangan nilam (Pogostemon cablin) di daerah<br />yang jaraknya jauh dari kebun induk, pengadaan benih nilam yang berkua-<br />litas menjadi masalah yang serius, karena bibit akan cepat mengalami<br />penurunan kualitas selama transportasi. Untuk itu dilaksanakan penelitian<br />yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh lama simpan setek berakar<br />nilam terhadap pertumbuhan. Percobaan dilaksanakan di rumah kaca Balai<br />Penelitian Tanaman Rempah dan Obat (Balittro) dari bulan April –<br />Agustus 2004. Percobaan disusun dalam rancangan petak terbagi (RPT)<br />dengan 3 ulangan. Petak utama (main plot) adalah 2 jenis setek nilam<br />yaitu: (1) setek berdaun dan (2) setek tidak berdaun. Anak petak (sub plot)<br />adalah lama penyimpanan setek yaitu: (1) setek langsung ditanam<br />(kontrol), (2) setek disimpan 1 hari, (3) setek disimpan 3 hari, (4)setek<br />disimpan 5 hari dan, (5) setek disimpan 7 hari. Pengamatan dilakukan<br />sejak tanaman berumur 2 minggu sampai tanaman berumur 8 minggu.<br />Parameter yang diamati meliputi pertumbuhan tanaman (tinggi, jumlah<br />daun dan jumlah tunas), bobot kering (batang, daun, akar). Hasil perco-<br />baan menunjukkan bahwa persentase hidup setek nilam berakar (setek<br />berdaun dan setek tidak berdaun) masih 100% setelah disimpan selama 7<br />hari. Hampir dari seluruh parameter pertumbuhan (tinggi tanaman, jumlah<br />cabang, jumlah daun) yang diamati menunjukkan bahwa pertumbuhan<br />bibit setek berdaun lebih baik dibandingkan dengan setek yang tidak<br />berdaun.<br />Kata kunci : Nilam, Pogostemon cablin Benth, bibit, setek berakar,<br />penyimpanan, pertumbuhan, Jawa Barat<br />ABSTRACT<br />Effect of storage periods of rooted cutting on the growth<br />of patchouli (Pogostemon cablin Benth)<br />Providing high quality of patchouli (Pogostemon cablin Benth)<br />seedlings is necessary to support the development of patchouli plants. In<br />the new developing area transportation become serious problems (high<br />cost transportation), therefore some alternative solution is reducing the<br />transportation cost without reducing the quality of the seedlings. Base on<br />the problems, this experiment was conducted. The objective of this<br />experiment was to study the effect of storage periods of rooted cuttings on<br />the growth of patchouli plant. The experiment was conducted in the green<br />house of Indonesian Spice and Medicinal Crops Research Institute<br />(ISMECRI), from April to August 2004. The experiment was arranged in<br />a split-plot design with 3 replications. The main plot was 2 kinds of cutting<br />there were: (1) leaf cutting and (2) non leaf cutting. The sub plot was 5<br />different storage periods, there were: (1) control (no storage), (2)1 day<br />storage, (3) 3 day storage, (4) 5 day storage, (5) 7 day storage. The<br />variables observed were plant growth (plant height, number of leaves and<br />number of shoots), dry weight of stems, leaves and roots. The results of<br />experiment indicated that after 7 day storage, rooted cuttings of patchouli<br />were still 100% viable. The growth of patchouli from leaf cutting was<br />significantly different from non leaf cutting. Patchouli plant from leaf<br />cutting produced higher plant height, number of leaves, number of shoots<br />and dry weight of plants compared to those of patchouli plants from non<br />leaf cuttings. Storage period significantly affected the height of plants<br />however it did not significantly affected the number of leaves, number of<br />shoots and dry weight of plants.<br />Key words: Pacthouli, Pogostemon cablin, seedlings, rooted cutting,<br />storage, growth, West JavE

The study aimed to explore the impacts of distinctive qualities of the LED light (such as to low power consumption, lesser production costs, longer operational lifetime and cool light emission with specific monochromatic wavelength) on potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) growth and development including plant height, number of leaves, root length, fresh and dry weight etc. The accumulation of phyto-pigments, soluble proteins and sugars, free radical scavenging activity and overall tuber yield were also evaluated. Enhanced plant height with increased diameter and branching was observed with the plant growing under the B100 and R30B70 LED light combination. Similarly, total number of leaves, leaf surface area, health index, phyto-pigments and tuber yield of potato was also significantly increased as compared to the plant growing under the W100 as control. Soluble proteins and sugar content and free radical scavenging enzyme activity were also significantly enhanced in the R30B70 LED light combination. Tubers yield per plants were also enhanced under the RB combination of the LED light. The current study indicated that the combination of R and B LED lights proved better for plant growth and development in a controlled environment and the R30B70 is the best combinational spectra for increased growth and tuber yield of potato plants. Therefore, the precise management of the irradiance and wavelength may hold promise in maximizing the economic efficiency of potato production, and quality of this important vegetables grown in controlled environments.

Objective: Barley Hordeum vulgaire L is an important grain crop, and is grown in large areas all over the world. The experiment aims to study the effect of different levels of fertilizer from agricultural sulfur (0, 1500, 3000, and 4500 kg) S / H, and the number of cuttings (without cut, one cut, and cut twice) on the yield and quality of green forage and grain yield for barley crop Iba 99. Material and Methods: In this experiment, randomized whole section design was used in the arrangement of splinter panels - splinter with three replicates, sulfur levels for the secondary plates and the number of cuttings in the sub-plot plates. Results: The addition of agricultural sulfur at the level (4500 kg S / H) resulted in a significant increase in the following characteristics: - plant height, number of tillers / m2, number of spikes / m2 and grain yield. Whereas the sulfur level (3000 kg S / E) resulted in a significant increase in the two green forage yields and the number of grains / spike when added and for the first and second seasons in succession. Conclusion: Sulfur has significant effect on plant height and a significant effect of interference between sulfur levels and the number of leaves and number of tillers /m2, but it has no effect on the percentage of protein matter in green forage. The increase on sulfur has a significant effect on spike and gave the highest rate (509.4 spike / m2), and increase the protein level in grain to the highest rate 16.95.

Jasmine plant is a horticultural crop that has promising prospect to be developed in trading. The development of jasmine cultivation is determined by the quality of seedling that can be produced rapidly for planting in the field. The purpose of this research is to study the effect of application of Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) from titonia root (Tithonia diversifolia) in increasing the growth of jasmine cuttings (Jasminum officinale). This experiment used Completely Randomized Design (RAL) which consists of 7 treatments with 5 replications. The treatments were: A (control), B (Growtone), C (Growtone + 1 ml PGPR), D (Growtone + 2 ml PGPR), E (Growtone + 4 ml PGPR) , F (Growtone + 6 ml PGPR) and G (Growtone + 8 ml PGPR). Data obtained were analyzed statistically with F test at 5% level. The results showed that the application of PGPR can increase the growth of jasmine cuttings. However, the increase in PGPR dose did not have a significant effect on the increase of leaf number, branch number and height of jasmine cuttings. The highest number of leaves, branch and plant height at two months seedling age were found in treatment (C) 1 ml PGPR with 48.60 leaves, 5.80 branch and 22.90 cm plant height that significantly different from other treatments,. Treatment (D) 2 ml PGPR application increased the population of P solubilizing bacteria in rhizosphere from 2.59x104 cfu/g of soil at control to 5.05x105 cfu/g soil and fixing bacteria N (Azospirillium) 3x104 cfu/g soil to 1.41x105 cfu/g soil and Azotobacter to 1.2x 103 cfu/g soil.Key words : Jasmine, PGPR, cuttings, Ultisol

The present experiments were carried out at the Assiut Univ. Experimental Farm during two winter seasons, 1994/1995 and 1995/1996, to study the effect of nitrogen source and level on growth, yield, and quality of salad crops (lettuce, parsley, and roquette). Nitrogen sources were urea, ammonium nitrate, and ammonium sufate. Three nitrogen levels, namely 20, 40, and 80 kg N/feddan, in addition to organic manure (2.028% N), in addition to the control, were used. Plant height, number of leaves (parsley and roquette), number of non-edible leaves (in lettuce) were significantly increased with urea followed by ammonium nitrate. Plant fresh weight, weight of edible part (in lettuce), and total yield/feddan were significantly higher with urea than ammonium nitrate or ammonium sulfate. The lowest content of nitrate and nitrite in leaves of the salad crops was obtained with ammonium sulfate followed by ammonium nitrate, while urea gave the highest values. Application of organic manure produced plant height, number of leaves per plant, plant fresh weight, total yield, dry matter content almost equal to that obtained from 40 or 20 kg N/fed. Nitrate and nitrite content were at their lowest value when organic manure was used. Plant height, number of leaves, non-edible leaves, weight of plant and total yield/feddan were significantly increased with increasing nitrogen rates from 0 to 80 kg/feddan. Using 80 kg N/fed. gave the highest dry matter, nitrate, and nitrite content.
