Abstract
Kelor (Moringa oleifera Lam.) is a plant that grows well under tropical and subtropical
climates. Moringa has many benefits resulting in higher demand. Therefore it is necessary to
do moringa nurseries to maintain existence of the germplasm. The purpose of this study was
to determine the effect of shade on the growth of Moringa cuttings and to determine the best
shade treatment in the nursery of Moringa stem cuttings. This study used a randomized block
design (RBD) with 0% shade (control), 25% shade, and 75% shade treatment. Each treatment
was repeated 3 times. The data observed were analyzed using Duncan's Multiple Range Test
(DMRT) level of 5%. The results showed that shade treatment affected the growth of
cuttings, and 25% shade with a light intensity of 29.934 Lux and an air temperature of 33.7oC
significantly increased the number of leaves and cuttings diameter.
