Abstract:
This research is aims to measure the growth of seeds palm oil that fulfill the
standards of seeds growth based on gift the fertilizer of compost and fertilizer of
compound NPKMg (15:15:6:4). This research was conducted in the Faculty of
Agriculture Experiment Garden University of Riau, Bina Widya campus, Simpang
Baru, Tampan, Pekanbaru. Held for 5 month starting from April until September
2008. This research is a experiment research with the Complet Random Design
(RAL) in factorial, consisting of 2 factor with 3 retrial. First factor is dose of compost
TKS: KO = 0 g/polybag, Kl = 50 g/polybag, K2 = 100 g/polybag, K3 =
150 g/polybag. Second factor is dose of compound fertilizer : MO = 0 g/polybag.
Ml = 5 g/polybag, M2 = 7,5 g/polybag, M3 = 10 g/polybag. The parameters observed
are increase of high seed (cm), increase leaves stem number (sheets), increase of
hump diameter (cm), wet seed weight (g), dry seed weight (g), and the ratio of the
root crown. Research shows that each treatment of compost and compound fertilizer
that is given showing the real impact of the increase high seeds, increase of hump
diameter, increase of leaves stem number, wet seed weight and dry seed weight. The
best plant of this research is the use of each dose of compost TKS 100 g/polybag and
fertilizer of compoimd NPKMg with the dose 10 g/polybag. While for the crown root
ratio does not provide real influence.
