2025-06-26T23:32:02+07:00

Pulut corn is one of the corn varieties consumed by Indonesians for its nutritional content. However, its production has declined due to suboptimal land conditions, such as water deficit and low organic matter content. This research was conducted in Kebonsari, Sumbersari Subdistrict, Jember District, from August to October 2024, on land at 100 meters above sea level with a temperature of 26-31°C, humidity of 88-90%, and rainfall of 6-20 mm/day. The study used a non-factorial Randomized Group Design (RAK) with six doses of corn cob biochar (0.8 kg/m2, 1.6 kg/m2, 2.4 kg/m2, 3.2 kg/m2, 4 kg.m2, and 4.8 kg/m2) and four replications. Variables observed included vegetative growth and yield of pulut corn plants, such as plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves, sweetness content, cob length and diameter, and fresh and dry weight. The results showed that the biochar dose of 1.6 kg/m² gave a very significant effect on fresh cob weight per sample (1.08 kg) and dry weight per sample (0.23 kg). Meanwhile, the dose of 0.8 kg/m² had a significant effect on fresh weight (2.60 kg) and dry weight per plot (1.91 kg). Biochar effectively improves soil structure, increases microorganisms, and supports the growth and production of pulut corn.

Cowpea is one of the food crops that has a fairly high protein content, but the production of cowpea is still relatively small. The cultivation technology applied is still not right, so that cowpea production does not increase. This study aims to determine the effect of applying several PGPR concentrations on the growth and production of cowpea. This study was conducted on the land of the Jember State Polytechnic from July 2024 to October 2024. This study used a Non-Factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD) with 6 treatments and 4 replications. Observation data was analysed statistically using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The treatments were PGPR concentrations of 0 ml/L, 18 ml/L, 29 ml/L, 40 ml/L, and 51 ml/L. The results showed that PGPR treatment with a concentration of 51 ml/L showed a difference in plant height, dry seed weight per plant, and 100 seed weight per plot. This is thought to be due to the role of PGPR as a biofertilizer and bio stimulant. Thus, PGPR can provide nutrition and produce growth hormone. This will have an impact on fulfilled the nutritional needs of cowpea, thus affecting the growth and production of cowpea.
