Abstract

The importance of organic fertilizers in a crop cultivation is to restore land productivity and reduce the use of synthetic fertilizers. Various ways has been developed to create quality organic fertilizer, for plants vegetables such as red chili, shallots and leek with low input. The aims of this study were to determine the effect of some kind of solid organic fertilizer on the growth and yield of red chili, shallots and leek, and to know the best organic fertilizer for each type plants. The experimental design used is Split Plot Design with the basic design of Randomized Complete Design Blockwith 3 replications as blocks. The main plots consisted of 3 species of plant vegetables. The subplot consisted of 5 kinds of solid organic fertilizer and without any treatments as control. There were 18 plots per block or the totals were 54 plots. The results showed that aplication of several types of solid organic fertilizer signifi cantly increased the growth and yield of red chilli, shallot and leek. Solid organic fertilizer from community A showed that the highest signifi cantly increased the growth and yield of red chilli. Combination of organic fertilizer and Rock Phosphate (RP) 2.4 ton / ha showed the highest growth and yield of leek. Combination of organic fertilizer and K-feldspar 0.6 ton / ha showed the highest growth and yield of shallot
