Abstract
The aim of this research was to study the effect of own formulated granular organic fertilizer application on growth and yield of red onion. The experiment was arranged in a Randomized Completely Block Design. The treatment was the doses of granular organic fertilizer (10 ton/ha; 20 ton/ha; 30 ton/ha) with the control using recommended doses of inorganic fertilizers. Red onions were planted in polybags with treatment according to the experimental design, each treatment consisted of 10 polybags and repeated five times. The results showed that up to 8 weeks after planting (wap), the height of red onion did not significantly affected by the use of granular organic fertilizer or inorganic fertilizers (control). At the age of 8 wap, plants treated with granular organic fertilizer had significantly more leaves than those with inorganic fertilizers. Different doses of granular organic fertilizer did not significantly affect the number of onion leaves. Red onion treated with granular organic fertilizer significantly produced higher yield that those treated with inorganic fertilizer. This suggests that granular organic fertilizer can replace the use of inorganic fertilizer for red onion cultivation.
