RESPONSE OF GROWTH OF OIL PALM SEED ON PEAT SOIL WICH IS GAVE CELLULOLYTIC MICROORGANISM AND LOW DOSAGE INORGANIC FERTILIZER

Abstract

Oil palm is the one of several annual crops that be a great contributor for Indonesian’s income but petroleum and gas. The brightly prospect of oil palm commodity has made Indonesian government to accelerate estate area development of oil palm. This research aimed to know inreraction between cellulolytic microorganism with low dosage inorganic fertilizer to enhance the growth of oil palm seed in main-nursery. The research was conducted in people’s land where is peat soil as growth media was taken from desa Rimbo Panjang Kab. Kampar Province of Riau by Factorial Completely Randomized Design with 3 replication. The treatment consist of two factors, the fisrt is usage of selulolytic microorganism (0 and 20 mL/polybag) and the second is usage of inorganic fertilizer (½,1/3 and ¼ recommanded dosage). Parameter that was studied include tall added of seed (cm), number added of leaf and stem around added (cm). Data was analyzed statistically with Analysis of Variance and continued to Least Significant Different Test on 5% of level. The result of this research showed that interaction between selulolytic microorganism and low dosage inorganic fertilizer affected significantly to enhance tall added of seed, and number added of leaf.
