Abstract

Tobacco is an important trade commodity in Indonesia because it supports the country’s economy through taxes and excise. The path analysis is used to measure the direct and indirect effects of agronomic character parameters that are strongly correlated with the results. The path analysis in this study aims to find the agronomic characteristics of tobacco that can be used as selection criteria to get high krosok production. The number of samples used was 50 plants. Observation parameters included plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves per plant, foot leaf length, foot leaf width, middle leaf length, middle leaf width, shoot leaf length, shoot leaf width, leaf wet weight, yield, heavyweight. The results showed the wet weight of the leaves can be used as direct selection criteria. The fresh weight of the leaves has a high positive correlation (Rx10y = 0.812), a high positive direct effect (Px10y = 0.924), and a contribution value of 75.007%.
