| dc.description.abstract | The aim of the research was to determine the growth
and yield of the adaptation of Ruby Advanta hybrid corn (Zea mays L.) to foliar
fertilizer application in Namorambe District, Deli Serdang Regency. The study
was conducted on Namorambe District, Deli Serdang Regency, from May 2023 to
August 2023. The randomized block design (RBD) method was used with one
factors: B0 (without foliar fertilizer application), B1 (foliar fertilizer application
with a dose of 2ml), and B2 (foliar fertilizer application with a dose of 4ml). The
observed variables were plant height, the number of leaves, stem diameter, the
time of male flowering, the time of female flowering the time of harvest, cob
length, cob diameter, cob weight per plant, 100-seed weight, sample weight with
cob production. The results of the study showed that foliar fertilizer application
with concentrations of 2ml and 4ml significantly affected the parameters of leaf
count at 6-7 DAS, stem diameter at 5 DAS, cob diameter, cob weight per plant, as
well as the growth parameters of male and female flowering, the time of harvest,
cob length, 100-seed weight, sample weight with cob production. The weight of
production per sample Interaction with foliar fertilizer were not significantly
affected the parameters. | en_US |
