Abstract

This research aims to study the effect of sago dregs compost in various doses on the growth of red okra plants. The research was carried out at the Field Experimental Field Laboratory II and the Agrotechnology Laboratory of the Agronomy Unit, Faculty of Agriculture, Halu Oleo University, from October to December 2020. The design used in this study was a single factor randomized block design (RBD) consisting of 6 treatments, namely: without fertilizer /control (C0), using sago dregs compost: 5 t. ha-1 (C1), 10 t. ha-1 (C2), 15 t. ha-1 (C3), 20 t. ha-1 (C4) and 25 t. ha-1 (C5). Each treatment was repeated three times, so there were 18 experimental units in total. The variables observed were plant height, number of leaves, stem diameter and leaf area. The results showed that the application of sago dregs compost had a significant effect on plant height 42 DAP, number of leaves 28 and 56 DAP, and stem diameter 28 DAP. In addition, it had a very significant effect on plant height 28 and 56 DAP, number of leaves 14 DAP, stem diameter 56 DAP and leaf area 56 DAP The best plant growth was obtained in the treatment of sago pulp compost 15 t. ha-1(C5).
