The Use of Organic Fertilizer as an Alternative to the Scarcity of Chemical Fertilizers in the Cultivation of Shallots (Allium Ascalonicum L)
Keywords:
Fermentation, Organic Waste, Production, Red OnionAbstract
Organic waste can be composted, such as household waste, market waste, paper, weeds that grow on agricultural commodities, livestock manure. Composting of organic waste uses fermentation technology in waste processing that facilitates waste reduction to landfills and recycling of plant nutrients and organic materials from biological waste to cultivated soil. The composting process runs when organic waste is mixed with microorganisms as elements that decompose organic waste which can increase the growth and production of shallots. The purpose of the study was to find solutions and alternatives to the scarcity of chemical fertilizers, especially subsidized fertilizers, by utilizing organic waste in increasing shallot production. The method used in this study was a factorial randomized block design with 2 organic fertilizer treatments consisting of solid organic fertilizer (POP) and liquid organic fertilizer (POC) and the analysis method of conversion of production/hectare of shallot bulbs. The results showed that the POP treatment at a level of 3.5 kg/plot (P3) and the POC treatment at a level of 750 ml/liter of water/plot (C3) were the best in terms of plant height, number of tillers, bulb diameter, dry bulb production and production conversion/hectare. The use of organic fertilizer is very important for farmers in Indonesia with many benefits, such as improving soil structure so that the soil becomes fertile, rich in nutrients, microorganisms, economical and not dependent on inorganic fertilizers or subsidized fertilizers, easy to make and use, the most important thing is the ability of farmers to independently use organic fertilizers to increase red onion production.
