Abstract

The research aimed to study about the response of growth and yield of shallot on palm oil mill effluent (POME) and type of bulb fission. The research has been conducted on land of Agricultural Faculty USU (± 25masl) from April to Juny 2014, using a factorial randomized block design with two factors which are dosage of effluent (0; 1; 2; 3 l/plot) and the second factors were type of fission (no fission, fissioned 1/3 part, fissioned into 2 part). The Parameters observed were plant height, leaves number per clump, tillers number per clump, clove number, wet weight of bulb per plant, wet weight of bulb per plot, dry weight of bulb per plant and dry weight of bulb per plot. The results showed bulb fission treatment significantly increased for all parameters. Giving palm oil mill effluent significantly increased clove number and interaction of fission bulb treatment and giving palm oil mill effluent non significantly increased for all parameters. Keywords:shallot, POME, fission
