Improving The Quality And Quantity Of Edamame (Glycine Max (L.) Merr.) Plant Products By Poc Dosage Of Beef Blood And Za Fertilizer

Abstract

This research was carried out at the Agricultural Training Center, Soropadanwith an altitude of 489 meters above sea level,in May – August 2022. The research is a factorial experiment (4x2) arranged in a complete randomized block design with 2 factors and 3 replications. The first factor is the dose of bovine blood POC consisting of 4 levels, namely: 0, 200, 400 and 600 ml/plot. The second factor is the application of ZA fertilizer at doses of 0 and 75kg/ha. The results of the research showed that administering a dose of bovine blood POC up to a dose of 600 ml/plot still increased yields in the parameters of pithy pod weight per plant, old seed weight per plant and old seed weight per m2. Optimum results in the parameters of weight of young seeds per plant, weight of fruity pods per m2, protein content of young seeds and protein content of old seeds were achieved at doses of POC of bovine blood of 479.50 ml/plot, 434.44 ml/plot, 485 ml/plot and 350 ml/plot. The ZA fertilizer dose of 75 kg/ha gave higher results in the parameters of pithy pod weight per plant, old seed weight per plant, young seed weight per plant and young seed protein content, compared to without the addition of ZA fertilizer. There was an interaction between giving doses of POC beef blood and ZA fertilizer on the parameters of young seed weight per plant and young seed protein content.
