Abstract

Organic fertilizer is one of the factors that can affect the growth and yield of onion. This research aimed to evaluate the response of growth and yield of onion lowland through organic fertilizers from industrial waste and livestock waste. The experiment was conducted in June to September 2014 at greenhouses Institute for Agricultural Technology Bengkulu. Experiments using a randomized block design with a single factor, it was use of organic fertilizers of various kinds of agricultural waste that is solid (P1), composted of cow manure (P2), quail manure (P3) and control (P0) which is repeated five times. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance and tested further by DMRT to determine differences between treatments. The results showed that the organic fertilizer significantly affected the growth and yield of onion. Of a given type of organic fertilizer, cow manure compost produced the highest yield (44.63 cm) in height parameter plant age 45 days after planting, weight of wet biomass (124.03 g), gross dry weight (79.54 g) and number cloves per clump (24.27 cloves) while the net dry weight was not significantly different, but the provision of manure cow compost generates the highest net dry weight (72.08 g).
