Effect of shade and various types of animal manure fertilizer on the yield of shallot (Allium ascalonicum L.) Lokananta variety of true shallot seed (TSS) in Ultisol soil

Indra Jaya, Eries Dyah Mustikarini, Tri Lestari

Abstract


Shallot is an important horticultural commodity. Shallot
production is influenced by variety, planting material, environment,
growing media, and nutrient availability. Optimal sunlight intensity
and appropriate nutrient types are essential to achieve high yields.
Adequate nutrients can be obtained through the application of
animal manure to the growing media. This study aimed to determine
the effect of shading and types of animal manure on the yield of
Lokananta shallot variety from True Shallot Seed (TSS) grown in
Ultisol soil. The research was conducted on Ultisol soil in
Pangkalpinang City, Bangka Belitung Islands Province, from April to
September 2024. A split-plot design arranged in a Randomized
Complete Block Design (RCBD) was used. The main plot was shading
treatment (with shading and without shading), and the subplot was
types of animal manure (chicken, cattle, goat, swiftlet, and bat
manure). Data were analyzed using Fisher's test and the Honestly
Significant Difference (HSD) test at a 95% confidence level. The
results showed that the treatment without shading produced the best
agronomic characteristics of TSS-grown shallots in terms of number
of leaves, number of tillers, stem diameter, and number of bulbs
across different animal manure types in Ultisol soil. The combination
of chicken manure and no shading yielded the best plant
characteristics in terms of number of leaves, number of tillers, fresh
weight, and dry weight in Ultisol soil. The application of chicken
manure showed superior performance in number of tillers, stem
diameter, and fresh weight.
