Different Doses

Sweet corn has a sturdy and strong stem growth and is very suitable for cultivation in tropical climates. Research on the effect of horse manure compost combined with NPK fertilizer on the growth of sweet corn has been done with the aim of obtaining information: (1) the effect of different doses of horse manure compost on the growth of sweet corn, (2) the effect of different doses of NPK fertilizer on the growth of sweet corn, (3) The interaction effect of horse manure compost and NPK fertilizer on sweet corn vegetative growth. The application of NPK fertilizer was carried out with 4 treatment doses while the application of horse manure compost was carried out with 5 treatment doses. In this study, information was obtained (1) the application of NPK fertilizer increased the growth of sweet corn, (2) the application of horse manure compost increased the growth of sweet corn, (3) There was no increase in growth of sweet corn due to the combination treatment of NPK fertilizer and horse manure compost

Fertilization efficiency which could enhance soil productivity is determined by type, application method and appropriate dose of fertilizers.  A green house experiment to study effect of different maturity level of ela  sago bokashi and some dosage of  SP-36 fertilizer on P-uptake and growth of maize (zea mays l.) on ultisols has been performed. The experiment was set up in three-replicates factorial Randomized Block Design. The treatments were  three maturity level of ela sago bokashi i.e. 2, 3 and 4 weeks; and four dosages of SP-36 fertilizer i.e. 0, 2, 4 and 6 g/10 kg of soil. The results showed that application of bokashi regardless of their maturity at the same time with each  doses of SP-36  increased P uptake, plant height and stem diameter of maize. Giving four-week ela sago bokashi with 6 gr/10 kg of soil of SP-36 was the best treatment to improve P uptake, plant height and stem diameter of corn crop up to  0.15%, 140, 60 cm and 1.64 mm respectively.

Global demand for high-quality rice and healthy food has increased, especially to the affluent and health-conscious consumers. Red rice has been consumed because of its health benefits. Red rice has met the concepts of productivity and quality that emerged to supply the demands for products that improve the eating pattern of its consuming population. Red rice is based on food industries especially for nutrition-based food products and baby food products. For the case on Malaysia, limited domestic supplies of red rice have led to full dependency on imported red rice supplies in the country. Recent statistics showed that the Sarawak state can be one of the potential areas for the development of red rice production due to its vast land resources; proper guidelines which suit the agroecosystem in Sarawak for cultivation of red rice are essential. As for rice production in general, proper application of fertilizers enhances the yield and to a certain extent sustains soil productivity. Considering the needs to establish a proper fertilizing program especially for red rice production in Sarawak, a preliminary study was conducted to evaluate the yield and yield components of red rice variety (MRM 16) with three levels of NPK fertilizers (Treatment 1, control; Treatment 2, 60 : 35 : 40; Treatment 3, 120 : 70 : 80; and Treatment 4, 180 : 105 : 120 (proportions of N, P2O5, and K2O·ha−1, respectively)). The experiment was conducted in the pot trial during main season 2016 (December 2016–April 2017). The yield parameters including rice yield, panicle no./m2, 1000-grain weight, spikelet number per panicle, and percentage of filled spikelets were collected. The results showed that yield was not significantly affected by the increment of the NPK fertilizer added at a rate of more than 60 kg/ha N, 35 kg/ha P, and 40 kg/ha K (T2). From the study, it was observed that the yield and yield components of red rice variety (MRM 16) were best in T2 (60 kg/ha N, 35 kg/ha P, and 40 kg/ha K).

The objectives of this research is Application of variety and NPK fertilizer dosage on the yield of corn (Zea mays L). The method of the research use factorial design based on the Randomized Block Design with two factors of treatment. The first factor was variety : (V1) Pioner, (V2) NK 33, (V3) Pertiwi and second factor was NPK fertilizer dosage : (P0) without fertilizer, (P1) NPK fertilizer dosage 50 g/plot, (P2) NPK fertilizer dosage 100 g/plot, (P3) NPK fertilizer dosage 150 g/plot and each kombination of treatment three times replicated.The result of the research : (1) There was interaction between variety and NPK fertilizer dosage on the parameters of the weight of dry cob per plant . (2) The highest yield was treatment (V3) Pertiwi and (P3) NPK fertilizer dosage 150 g/plotfor all parameters. (3) The highest  yield was treatment combination V3 P3 (variety pioner and NPK fertilizer dosage 150 g/plot) providing the best harvest.

Test of Corn Leaves (Zea mays) Compost and NPK Phonska Fertilizer on Plant Height and Peanut Yield (Arachis hypogaea L.). This study aims to determine the effect of giving corn leaf compost fertilizer and NPK phonska fertilizer and its interactions on the growth and yield of peanuts. The study used a Randomized Block Design with a 4x4 experiment with 2 factorial replications 3 times. The first factor is the dose of compost of corn leaf compost consisting of 4 levels, namely: o0 (control), o1 (100 g / plant), o2 (200 g / plant), o3 (300 g / plant). The second factor is the NPK fertilizer dosage consisting of 4 levels, namely: k0 (control), k1 (5 g / plant), k2 (10 g / plant), k3 (15 g / plant). The results showed that the treatment of corn leaf compost did not have a significant effect on plant height at 30.60, and 90 days after planting, pod weight and number of pods. Phonska NPK fertilizer does not have a significant effect on plant height at 30, 60, and 90 days after planting, but it has a significant effect on the number of pods and pod weight. The interaction between the compost dose of corn leaf compost and NPK phonska had no significant effect on plant height, pod weight and number of pods.
