Abstract
Conventional red chili farming systems using inorganic fertilizer cause to overcome this problem, alternative technologies. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of biofertilizer on the growth and yield of red chili in acid upland. The experiment was conducted in Harapan Masa Village, Tapin District, South Kalimantan from May 2016 to December 2016. The Pillars variety was used because of the high production. The study was arranged using a randomized block design with 4 treatments and 5 replications. The treatments consist of Po = manure application without biofertilizer + NPK fertilizer at a dose of 100%, P1 = manure application with biofertilizer + NPK fertilizer at a dose of 100%, P2 = manure application with biofertilizer + NPK fertilizer with a dose of 75%, P3=manure application with biofertilizer + NPK fertilizer at a dose of 50%. Variables observed included percentage of seedling death, plant height, fruit length, fruit diameter, percentage of death plants and crop production. The results showed that the use of biofertilizer on manure used + NPK fertilizer can increase plant height, fruit length and production of chili plant in acid upland also decrease the percentage of death plant.
