Pendahuluan
Sweet corn (Zea
mays saccharata Sturt) is a plant that has a fairly
high commercial value, this is due to the sweet taste contained in the corn
kernels. Sweet corn is an agricultural commodity that is very popular,
especially by urban residents because of its delicious and sweet taste and
contains lots of carbohydrates, little protein and fat. In addition, sweet corn
has a significant role in meeting the nutritional needs of the community (Novira,
F., Husnayetti, 2015).
Based on data from BPS and the
Directorate General of Food Crops, the average productivity of sweet corn in
Indonesia from 2011 - 2016 is relatively low, only reaching 5.81 tons/ha (Statistik,
2017). In the last five years,
sweet corn productivity has increased slightly to 5.91 tons/ha (Statistik,
2017).
The market demand for sweet corn is
not yet adequate. However, it is known that to meet domestic needs, Indonesia
still imports sweet corn in frozen shelled form. In 2016, Indonesia imported
697,247 tons of frozen sweet corn and in 2018 it increased to 839,604 tons
(https://horticulture. sariagri.id.). Not only frozen shells, Indonesia also
imports processed sweet corn (canned), namely during the period 2014-2018, the
average processed sweet corn import was 2,678 tons per year
(https://sipindo.id/article). Thus, sweet corn has the potential to be
developed in Indonesia.
Although productivity continues to
increase, it is still below the potential yield of sweet corn which can reach
14-18 tons/ha. One of the reasons is that the application of fertilizer and the
amount of nutrients available in the soil have not met the needs of plants (Musfal,
2008). Fertilizer is one of the
most important production factors, lately the price of fertilizer has increased
quite sharply. Besides being expensive, there is also a shortage of fertilizers
everywhere. This affects the timing and dosage of fertilizers that are not
appropriate, so that it can reduce soil fertility and crop production. The
scarcity of fertilizers also led to farmer demonstrations which affected
security.
P fertilization is one of the efforts
to increase P in the soil. According to (I.,
2000), nutrient P is one of the
limiting factors for corn growth. Efforts to overcome the problem of P
deficiency are carried out with P fertilization. Therefore, it is necessary to
do research on the dose of phosphate fertilizer on the growth and yield of some
sweet corn. Phosphate (P) is an essential nutrient for plants that plays a role
in photosynthesis, respiration, energy transfer and storage, cell division and
enlargement. Sources of P fertilizer that are commonly used in plantations are
Natural Phosphate fertilizers (Batuan Phosphate) and TSP fertilizers.
Compost is organic fertilizer
obtained from the weathering of plant materials or organic waste, such as
straw, husks, leaves, grass, organic waste from factory processing, and organic
waste produced by human (household) treatment. Composting can be defined as a
biochemical process that involves microorganisms as intermediaries (agents) that
break down organic matter into compost. In the composting process, the general
treatment is to create a suitable microenvironment for the growth of
microorganisms.
Based on the foregoing, to obtain
clearer information, it is necessary to conduct further research on the Growth
Response and Yield of Sweet Corn (Zea mays saccharata Sturt) Bonanza Varieties due to the Application
of Rock Phosphate at Various Doses of Compost Fertilizer.
The aims of this study were to
determine: 1) The effect of the interaction between rock phosphate fertilizer
and compost on the growth and yield of sweet corn (Zea
mays saccharata Sturt) Bonanza variety. 2) Which dose
of rock phosphate fertilizer and compost has a good effect on the growth and
yield of Bonanza sweet corn. 3) Relationship between growth and yield of
Bonanza sweet corn.
This
research is expected to be a contribution of thought for developers of
agricultural disciplines, especially agronomic studies of sweet corn plants. In
addition, this research can be used as material for relevant agencies in the
form of recommendations for government policy directions, especially for
increasing sweet corn production, and can add insight to knowledge for
researchers, especially about sweet corn farming.
Review of
Literature
2.1 General Condition of Sweet
Corn Plants Sweet
corn (sweet corn) is a secondary food commodity and belongs to the grass family (Gramineae) genus Zea and species Zea mays Saccharata. Sweet corn has the characteristics of a clear endosperm, thin seed coat, low starch content, when ripe the seeds wrinkle. The main product of sweet corn is the fruit/cob, sweet corn seeds have a shape, color and endosperm content that varies depending on the type, sweet corn seeds consist of three main parts, namelycoat, endosperm and embryo (Koswara, 2018).
seedSweet corn is
believed to have originated from seed corn that had a mutation at the Su 1 . locus chromosome 4, (Su 1/Su
1 = corn kernels, su 1/su 1 = sweet corn). Sweet corn was grown in
pre-Columbian times as a source of alcohol for ritual purposes. However, the
use of sweet corn is neglected because sweet corn has wrinkled seeds, has lower starch content and has a shorter shelf life than
corn kernels.
2.2 Conditions for Growing Sweet
Corn
2.2.1 Climate
The area desired
by most maize plants is a temperate to subtropical/wet tropical climate with
ideal rainfall of around 85 - 200 mm/month on non-irrigated land. The growth of
corn plants really needs sunlight during its growth period. The desired
temperature for corn plants for the best growth is between 270C - 320C . Corn is a plant that requires a lot of water, especially
during early growth, flowering and seed filling. In general, corn plants need 2
liters of water per plant per day during hot and windy conditions. Lack of
water at 3 weeks after the cob hair comes out will reduce yields by up to 30%.
Meanwhile, lack of water during flowering will reduce the number of seeds that
are formed. Corn requires optimum humidity at the time of planting or at a time
when the soil must be close to field capacity (Hanefeld, Josse, &
Chiasson, 2005).
2.2.2 Soil
(Ekowati & Nasir, 2011) say that corn is a plant that does not require
special soil requirements for cultivation. Corn is known as a plant that can
grow in dry land, rice fields, and tides, as long as the necessary growing
conditions are met. Types of soil that can be planted with corn include
Andosol, latosol, and Grumosol. But the best for corn
growth is Latosol. Soil acidity is between 5.6 - 7.5 with sufficient aeration
and water availability and the optimum slope for maize is a maximum of 8%. Soil
pH between 5.6 - 7.5. Good aeration and water availability, the slope of the
soil is less than 8%. And the altitude is between 1000 - 1800 m above sea level
with the optimum altitude between 50-600 m above sea level (Prabowo, 2009)
2.3 Sweet Corn Varieties
In an effort to
increase sweet corn productivity, technological innovation of superior
varieties plays an important role. The Food Crops Research Institute continues
to strive to increase the genetic potential of varieties and prepare technology
for actualizing the genetic potential of new superior varieties (VUB),
especially its productivity and quality. Efforts to improve the genetic
potential of maize varieties require not only management support and germplasm
characteristics, but also suitable land characteristics for their development.
2.4 Rock Phosphate
rock is known as
natural stone. In Indonesia, it is generally found in mountainous areas of
coral, limestone or dolomite which is a cave deposit. Spread in Aceh, North
Sumatra, West Sumatra, West Java, Central Java, East Java, Nusa Tenggara, and Papua.
In general, natural phosphate deposits in Indonesia have total P2O5 levels thatKasnovary40
from low to moderate and there are some deposits that reach levels of up toP2O5
and% (Sutriadi & Setyorini,
2012). Of the more than 200 known phosphate minerals, the main
mineral group of phosphates is the apatite form. Other elements found in
phosphate rock such as Ca, Mg, Al, Fe, Si, Na, Mn, Cu, Zn, Mo, B, Cd, Hg, Cr,
Pb, As, U, V, F, Cl.
2.5. The Role of Nutrient P for
Corn Plants
Phosphorus is an
important nutrient needed by plants to grow healthily. The amount required by
plants is estimated to reach 2 mg atoms per liter of nutrients (Loveless,
2000). In contrast to nitrogen which is abundant and can be obtained through
biochemical fixation, the availability of phosphorus in nature is quite limited.
In soil, the amount is in the range of 400 - 1200 mg kg-1 Phosphorus
absorbed by plants is in a bound form with other molecules in plants.
Phosphorus bound to lipids forms phospholipids which are part of the plant
plasma membrane (Campbell et al., 2000) Phosphorus is stored in seeds as phytin. soil.
The presence of phosphorus in soil can be obtained through fertilization,
animal manure, plant residues, industrial and domestic waste, in addition to
natural phosphorus compounds both organic and inorganic which are already
available in the soil (Krishnaveni &
Meenakumari, 2010).
2.6.compost
fertilizer
Composting
is one way of manipulating the quality of organic inputs under controlled
conditions so as to produce organic matter of a certain quality (Plaza, Brunetti, Senesi, & Polo, 2006). One thing that needs to be studied in composting is the role of
cellulosic thermophilic microorganisms because these bodies are directly
involved in the decomposition of organic inputs. A study conducted by Subba Rao (2002) showed that cellulosic thermophilic
microorganisms succeeded in increasing the rate of composting of organic
inputs. The importance of using organic fertilizers in a plant cultivation is
very necessary because it can restore land productivity. According to (JS, D. Juanda, 2005), one of the efforts to control soil damage is to reduce the use of
synthetic fertilizers and increase the use of organic fertilizers.

4.1 Supporting
Observations Supporting observations
are observations whose data are used to provide an overview of the experimental
site and support the main observations which include: soil analysis, rainfall
and rice plant growth conditions during the experiment.
Based on the results of the analysis of soil samples
before the experiment, which was obtained from the Laboratory of Soil, Plants,
Fertilizer, Water, Agricultural Research and Development Agency, Integrated
Testing Laboratory of the Research Institute for Vegetable Crops, the soil at
the experimental site had a dusty clay texture, with a content of 26.00% sand,
36 dust. 0.00% and clay 38.00%. Soil texture is one
of the soil properties that greatly determines the ability of the soil to
support plant growth.
Soil texture has a role in determining the water system in the soil, namely in the form of infiltration speed, penetration and the ability to bind water by the soil. The pH value of H2O is 6.2 (slightly sour), pH of KCl is 5.00 (sour). Soil pH greatly affects the availability of nutrients in the soil solution. Soil pH is the degree of soil acidity that can affect plant growth. During vegetative growth, plants are affected by soil pH. Most soils in Indonesia are acidic (5.5 to 6), or pH below 7. Soil reacting acid (low pH) is due to a lack of Calcium (CaO) and Magnesium (MgO).
C-organic content is 0.80% (very low), N-total 0.08% (very low) with a C/N value of 10 (low). The more organic matter content, the more water in the soil will increase. Organic matter in the soil can absorb water 2-4 times its weight which plays a role in water availability. P2O5 Bray 5.06 ppm (low) and P2O5 HCl (potential p) 36.90 mg/100 g (low), K Morgan Venema 39.0 ppm (moderate), K2O 10.22 mg/100g (low).
Micro elements Fe 2.9 ppm (low), Zn 0.2 ppm (very low),
Cu 0.4 ppm (very low), Mn 19.8 ppm (moderate), and Cl 0.4 ppm (very low). CEC
24.94 cmol(+)/kg
(low) and base saturation 59.18% (medium). The
results of soil analysis showed that the CEC of the experimental land was 21.49
cmol(+)/kg
(low). Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) is a chemical property that is closely
related to soil fertility. Soil with a high CEC is able to absorb and provide
nutrients better than soil with a low CEC. Base saturation from the analysis
results showed 65% (high).
The results of observations of
rainfall, the average daily humidity during the study were low because it had a
value of < 200 mm per month, so that it affected plant growth. Kurnia (1997) states that lack of water during the
vegetative and generative growth of plants will disrupt growth, so that it can
reduce yields.
The average daily temperature in
this study ranged from 26.90C - 27.80C. The temperature
in this range is included in the optimum category because the optimum
temperature for corn growth is between 250C - 330C (Yoshida, 1981). Air temperature will affect the growth and production
of plants due to an imbalance of photosynthesis and respiration processes. The
average daily humidity during the study ranged from 53.70% - 63.30%, while the
optimum relative humidity range for maize was 50-90% (Rahmat
Rukmana, 2001). Relative air humidity affects
evapotranspiration. In the dry season with low humidity, the intensity of
sunlight and high temperatures accelerate the rate of evapotranspiration. If
the rate of evapotranspiration is not matched by the rate of translocation of
water to the roots, the plant will experience drought. Humidity also affects
the attack of pests and diseases.
Corn seeds began to grow 6 days
after planting marked by the release of light green sprouts. The power to grow
seeds in the field is 86.17%. According to Suhaeni
(2011) that good seed quality is characterized by 86% growth power, no defects,
can reveal the identity (nature) of the original parent, and free from pests
and diseases. Seeds that did not grow were embroidered at the age of 7 DAP
using corn plants which were planted at the same time as planting and planted
separately in other fields around the experimental site.
Weeds began to appear on the experimental field at 7
days after planting which began with the growth of grass weeds. Along with the
development of time, weeds growing in the experimental area were found to have
3 groups of weeds, namely grass weeds, tekian weeds,
and broadleaf weeds.of
grasses such as: grinting grass (Cynodon dactylon), lulangan
(Eluisina indica); puzzle groups such as: grass
nut (Cyperus rotundus)
and broad-leaved weeds such as: purslane (Portulaca
sp), spinach (Amaranthus
sp), kale (Ipomea
aquantica).
According to Murrinie (2010),
grass weeds will grow and develop quickly if they get enough light and water,
so that these weeds have higher competitiveness than other weeds. To control
the weeds that grow, weeding was done at the age of 15 DAP and 30 DAP by manual
method, which was pulled directly and assisted by using a chord.
Plant-disturbing organisms
identified during the experiment were in the form of plant pests and diseases.
Pests that attacked corn plants during the experiment were as follows:
1.�� Grasshoppers and crickets, these pests eat
sprouts that have just grown so that the corn plants are cut off their growing
points. The level of attack of this pest is relatively small.
2.�� Leaf caterpillar (Prodenia litura). Leaf caterpillars attack the
leaf buds and usually 1 month old corn plants are attacked by leaf
caterpillars. The leaves of corn plants which when they are large become
damaged, the intensity of the attack is high. Symptoms of damage can be seen on
the leaves. The caterpillars that have just emerged from the eggs live in
groups, eat the surface of the leaves, then disperse to find food in other
clumps.
3.�� Caterpillar span (Cryodeixischalcites). This pest
attacks all parts of the plant, especially the leaves so that they become
damaged and irregular. The intensity of this pest attack in the experimental
field is relatively small.
4.�� Stem Borer (Menagromyza sojae). The way to attack this pest is
that the larvae eat leaf tissue and seed chips, in 2-3 days they go to the stem
through the stalk and then pierce the pith. Pupae are formed inside the stem,
the larval hole can cause twigs to break, the plant to wither, dry out and die.
The intensity of this pest attack in the experimental field is relatively
small.
5.�� Green Ladybug (Nezara viridula) or
ladybug is the main important leaf-sucking pest that is polypag
(eating several types of plant families). This pest is important because it
produces toxins, causing plants to wither. The intensity of this pest attack in
the experimental field is relatively moderate.
Pests that attack sweet corn plants are classified as moderate, with low attack power (15%). Pest control is carried out with an integrated pest control system. Mechanical control is done by taking caterpillars or larvae directly that are attacking sweet corn plants. Control with insecticides can be done if the population exceeds the control threshold with damage > 25%. Therefore, the control of pests that attack sweet corn is only done mechanically by collecting caterpillars or larvae.
Based on the data above, according to the researcher's
opinion, the pests that attack plants are still relatively low, so that the
control of these pests is simply done by mechanical means, namely by taking
caterpillars or larvae directly that are attacking sweet corn plants.
Efforts to control various types of plant pests that are carried out by farmers in general are by applying insecticides without paying attention to the negative impacts caused (Naveed et al. 2009). Insecticides with active ingredients deltamethrin and chlorpyrifos are known to be effective for controlling maize pests and can maintain yields of 61.6% for deltamethrin and 45.3% for chlorpyrifos (Tengkano et al., 2007). However, the use of these two insecticides has not been able to overcome the population and the level of attack caused.
Sanitation or cleaning is an important factor in cultivating sweet corn plants. Because many insect pests can survive on plant debris (Untung, 2003). According to Sembel (2012), weed removal is not only important for healthy plant growth but also necessary to keep weeds from becoming a place for insects to live to lay eggs or obtain food sources or just as temporary shelter.
Diseases that attack corn plants that can be identified
based on visible attack symptoms are:
1.�� Dwarf Disease. Symptoms of this disease are seen in young leaves showing indentations (curly) and rough, wrinkled with dark green color and abnormal growth.
2.�� Rhizoctonia rot. Symptoms of this disease are root and stem rot, the plant wilts and eventually dies.
Rizobacteria isolates were able to act as agents of inducing systemic resistance in maize to wilt disease and at the����� plant growth promoter (Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria/PGPR).isolates CgBd disease development, growth and plant yields better than TLKC isolates. The best way to apply isolate is through soaking corn sprouts in rhizobacterial suspension. These two rhizobacteria isolates can be used as an environmentally friendly alternative to wilt disease control in corn plants.�
Corn plants in the experimental field began to appear
male flowers at the age of 48 DAP, and simultaneously flowering in each experimental
plot occurred at the age of 55 DAP, and the age of female flowers began to
appear at the age of 57 DAP and simultaneously at the age of 65 DAP for
harvesting carried out at the age of 75 days. after planting.
Crop harvest time is strongly influenced by
environmental factors, especially day length and temperature, in the highlands
sweet corn is harvested at a longer age. Sweet
corn is usually consumed when it is still fresh and young, because it will
affect the sugar content of the seeds, if sweet corn is harvested at the wrong time it will affect the sugar content of the seeds. Surtinah (2008) reported that the harvest age of 70 days
after planting showed the highest sugar content of sweet corn seeds, namely
15.78% for the Sweet Boy variety.
4.2 Main Observations
4.2.1 Plant Height The
At the age of 4, 5 and 6 weeks after
planting independently rock phosphate fertilizer had no significant effect on
plant height. The application of various doses of rock phosphate fertilizer did
not significantly affect plant height. This is because phosphate fertilizers
dissolve slowly so that the application of phosphate fertilizers has no
significant effect on plant height. The use of phosphate rock as phosphate
fertilizer directly is less effective because of the low solubility of
phosphate rock (Noor, 2003). Phosphate aid can provide phosphate in the soil in
the long term, due to the slow release.
The results of research conducted by Husnain et al.
(2013) rock phosphate is able to supply P in corn plants up to 6 times the
growing season.
At the age of 4 weeks after planting
independently, compost fertilizer had no significant effect on plant height. At
the age of 5 weeks after planting independently significantly affected the
number of leaves per plant.compost1 and k2were
not significantly different for plant height, but both were significantly
different with the use of 15 tons/ha (k3). This is because the
compost given is able to provide the nutrients needed by plants, so that corn
plants grow optimally.
At the age of 6 weeks after planting
independently, compost fertilizer had a significant effect on plant height. The
compost treatment of 5 tons/ha (k1) was significantly different from
the compost dose of 15 tons/ha (k3), but not significantly different
from the compost treatment at 10 tons/ha (k2). It is suspected that
the application of compost to the soil can increase the nutrients in the soil
that can be utilized by corn plants for growth. The addition of organic matter
in the soil can be done by giving organic fertilizers such as compost. The
advantage of adding organic fertilizers to the soil lies not only in its
nutrient content but also has other roles, namely improving the state of the
structure, aeration, soil water holding capacity, influencing or regulating
soil temperature conditions and providing a substance resulting from overhaul
that can help plant growth. (Purnomo et al., 2009).
4.2.2 Number of
Leaves per Plant
At the age of 4, 5 and 6 weeks after
planting independently rock phosphate fertilizer did not significantly affect
the number of leaves per plant. The application of various doses of rock
phosphate fertilizer did not significantly affect the number of leaves per
plant. This is presumably because the availability and absorption of nutrients
are not too different by plants and the metabolic processes that occur so that
rock phosphate administration has no significant effect on the number of leaves
parameters. In addition to the slow
release or slow soluble rock phosphate, direct phosphate fertilizers are
less effective because of the low solubility of rock phosphate, so that giving
various doses of rock phosphate does not affect the number of leaves per plant.
At the age of 4 weeks after planting
independently, compost fertilizer had no significant effect on the number of
leaves per plant. This is presumably because the compost decomposition process
in the soil is still ongoing so that there are not enough nutrients available
and well absorbed by plants and insufficient water due to low rainfall will
further slow down the decomposition process which
requires sufficient water. The growth factors of each plant were still in
sufficient quantities for life, especially during the vegetative phase, so that
the plants showed an increase in the number of leaves that were relatively the
same. The dose of compost did not increase the number of corn leaves where the
results obtained from the application of compost at all doses gave almost the
same range.
4.2.3 Stem Diameter
The
At 4, 5 and 6 weeks after planting
independently, rock phosphate fertilizer had no significant effect on stem
diameter. The application of various doses of rock phosphate fertilizer did not
have a significant effect on stem diameter. This is presumably because the stem
diameter is more influenced by genetic factors from the sweet corn plant which
causes the stem diameter to be almost the same.
At the age of 4 weeks after
planting, compost independently significantly affected stem diameter. The dose
treatment of compost 15 tons/ha gave the highest stem diameter and was
significantly different from the compost treatment at 10 tons/ha, but not
significantly different from the compost treatment at 5 tons/ha.
At the age of 5 weeks after planting
the compost independently had a significant effect on stem diameter. The
compost fertilizer dose treatment of 5 tons/ha gave the highest stem diameter
and was significantly different from the compost treatment at 10 tons/ha, but
not significantly different from the compost treatment at 15 tons/ha, but the
compost treatment at 10 tons/ha was not significantly different. This is because the compost material given can improve the physical
properties of the soil to become loose so that the roots of corn plants are
easier to develop and absorb nutrients.
At the age of 6 weeks after planting
the compost independently had a significant effect on stem diameter. The
treatment with 5 tons/ha of compost gave the highest stem diameter and was
significantly different from that of 15 tons/ha of compost, but not
significantly different from that of 10 tons/ha of compost. This is because
compost with organic C content, as well as N, P, and K is quite helpful in the
vegetative growth process of plants as well as stem diameter. Supported by the research results of Widowati et al.
(2005), compost in the form of chicken manure always gives the best plant
response to plant growth and yield.
4.2.4 Leaf Area Index
The
The administration of various doses of rock phosphate
did not significantly affect the leaf area index.
This is presumably because the leaf area index is more influenced by genetic
factors from the sweet corn plant which causes the leaf area index to be
relatively the same.
The compost fertilizer independently
had a significant effect on the leaf area index. The doses of compost
fertilizer at 5 tons/ha and 10 tons/ha gave the highest leaf area index and
significantly different from compost treatment at 15 tons/ha. This is because
the application of organic matter/compost fertilizer is able to improve soil
structure by increasing soil organic matter content and can maintain soil water
content so that nutrient absorption becomes more optimal and as a supplier of
nutrients that are very useful for increasing plant vegetative growth, such as
leaf area index. Compost is able to support plant physiological processes such
as photosynthesis so that the utilization of nutrients is more efficient.
4.2.5 Cob Length The
Rock phosphate fertilizer
independently significantly affected the length of the ear. Treatment of rock
phosphate fertilizer doses of 100 kg/ha and 150 kg/ha (p1 and p2)
gave the highest cob lengths of 18.99 cm and 19.03 cm and significantly
different from rock phosphate treatments of 0 kg/ha and 200 kg/ha. ha (p0
and p3). The
existence of this real effect is thought to be caused by factors in the
treatment of rock phosphate fertilizer so that it affects soil fertility and
genetic characteristics of corn plants. According to Lakitan
(2011), explaining that the formation of fruit and the number of fruit formed by plants is determined by the flowering
process of plants which is influenced by factors contained in plants such as
hormones and genetics, as well as external factors such as temperature,
climate, water, light. sun and nutrients.
Research results Parhusip, et al. (2020) showed that the combination treatment of Urea fertilization 200 kg/ha, KCl 150 kg/ha and Natural Phosphate 700 kg/ha could produce the highest ear diameter and length of the ear and was significantly different from other treatments. The results of research by Betty et al. (2017) showed that phosphate fertilizer treatments of 100 kg/ha and 150 kg/ha could increase the length and diameter of the cobs. The addition of compost independently significantly affected the length of the sweet corn cobs. The compost fertilizer treatment of 10 tons/ha (k2)gave the highest cob length and was significantly different from the compost treatment at 5 tons/ha and 15 tons/ha (k1and k3).
4.2.6 Cob Diameter
The
Rock phosphate fertilizer
independently significantly affected the diameter of the ear. Treatment doses
of rock phosphate fertilizer 100 kg/ha and 150 kg/ha (p1 and p2)
gave the highest ear diameters of 3.96 cm and 3.86 cm and significantly
different from rock phosphate treatment of 0 kg/ha and 200 kg/ha. ha (p0
and p3). This is
thought to be caused by factors in the treatment of rock phosphate fertilizers
that affect soil fertility and genetic characteristics of corn plants.
According to Lakitan (2011), explaining that the
formation of fruit and the number of fruit formed by
plants is determined by the flowering process of plants which is influenced by
factors contained in plants such as hormones and genetics, as well as external
factors such as temperature, climate, water, light. sun and nutrients.
The addition of compost
independently significantly affected the diameter of the sweet corn cobs. The
compost fertilizer treatment of 10 tons/ha (k2)gave
the highest cob diameter, which was 3.85 cm and significantly different from
the compost treatment at 5 tons/ha and 15 tons/ha (k1and k3).
4.2.7 Weight of cob without husks per plant
The results of the analysis of variance showed that there was no interaction effect between rock phosphate fertilizer and compost on the weight of the cob without grain per plant can be seen in table.

Rock phosphate fertilizer
independently had a significant effect on the weight of the cob without husks
per plant. Treatment doses of rock phosphate fertilizer 100 kg/ha and 150 kg/ha
(p1 and p2) gave the highest plant weights of cobs
without rhizome, namely 227.47 g and 237.16 g and significantly different from
rock phosphate treatment 0 kg/ha and 200 kg/ha (p0 and p3). This is thought to be caused by factors
in the treatment of rock phosphate fertilizers that affect soil fertility and
genetic characteristics of corn plants. According to Lakitan
(2011), explaining that the formation of fruit and the number of fruit formed by plants is determined by the flowering
process of plants which is influenced by factors contained in plants such as
hormones and genetics, as well as external factors such as temperature,
climate, water, light. sun and nutrients.
The addition of rock phosphate
fertilizer had a significant effect on the weight of the cobs without husks.
The increasing application of rock phosphate fertilizer can increase the weight
of the cobs without husks only up to 150 kg/ha, but after increasing the dose
of rock phosphate fertilizer to 200 kg/ha, the weight of the cobs without husks
decreases again. Fertilization with too high a dose reduces the process of
movement of the food cycle which can suppress the growth of the number of
leaves and root development.
The addition of compost
independently significantly affected the weight of the cobs without sweet corn
husks. The compost fertilizer treatment of 10 tons/ha (k2) gave the
highest weight of unhulled cobs per plant, which was
213.83 g and significantly different from the compost treatment of 5 tons/ha
and 15 tons/ha (k1 and k3). This
is becauseapplying compost to the soil makes the soil more friable and
increases the aeration of the clay, so that root respiration and nutrient
intake are actively increased.
4.2.8 Weight of cobs without husks per plot The
results of the analysis of variance showed that there was an interaction effect between rock phosphate fertilizer and compost on the weight of cobs without husks per plot, as shown in table.

Rock phosphate fertilizer and compost fertilizer have an effect interaction with the weight of the barrel l without grain per plot. The rock phosphate treatment of 0 kg/ha, (p0), indicated that the compost dose was not significantly different from the weight of the cob without husks per plot. The rock phosphate treatment of 100 kg/ha (p1), showed that the compost dose of 5 tons/ha gave the highest weightless cobs per plot and significantly different with compost doses of 10 tons/ha and 15 tons/ha. Then at a dose of rock phosphate of 150 kg/ha (p2), it showed that the compost treatment of 10 tons/ha gave the highest weight of cobs without husks and was significantly different from other treatments. In the rock phosphate treatment of 200 kg/ha (p3), it showed that the compost treatment of 5 tons/ha and 10 tons/ha was not significantly different, but both were significantly different from the compost treatment of 15 tons/ha.
The highest weight of unhulled cobs per plot was achieved at the combination of p2k2 (rock phosphate 150 kg/ha and compost 10 tons/ha), which was 6.55 kg per plot or equivalent to 10.92 tons of cobs without husks per hectare. This indicates that the rock phosphate and compost fertilizer treatment is the optimal combination of treatments that can provide good cob weight without grain per plot.
To determine the relationship between rock phosphate and cob weight without husks per plot at various doses of compost, quadratic regression analysis was used. The relationship between rock phosphate and cob weight without husks per plot in the compost treatment of 5 tons/ha (k1), with the regression equation = 4,850 + 0,068 X - 0,001 X2 (R2� = 0,469). From the regression equation, the optimum rock phosphate was 34 kg/ha, with a maximum weight of 6.01 kg of stump without husks per plot. In the compost treatment 10 tons/ha (k2), with the regression equation = 4.025 + 0.071 X - 0.0004 X2 (R2� = 0.595). From the regression equation, it was obtained that the optimum rock phosphate was 88.75 kg/ha, with a maximum weight of 7.18 kg of stump without husks per plot.compost treatment was 15 tons/ha (k3), with the regression equation = 3.974 + 0.092 X - 0.0007 X2 (R2� = 0.517). From the regression equation, it was obtained that the optimum rock phosphate was 65.71 kg/ha, with a maximum weight of 7.00 kg of stump without husks per plot. For more details, it can be seen in Figure 2 and Table 16.

To determine the relationship between compost and cob weight without husks per plot at various doses of rock phosphate fertilizer, quadratic regression analysis was used. The relationship between compost and cob weight without husks per plot in rock phosphate treatment 0 kg/ha (p0), with the regression equation = 7.218 - 0.229 X + 0.013 X2 (R2� = 0.231). From the regression equation, the optimum compost dose was 8.81 tons/ha, with a maximum weight of 6.21 kg of cobs without husks per plot. In rock phosphate treatment 100 kg/ha (p1), with the regression equation = 10.356 - 0.735 X + 0.033 X2 (R2� = 0.202). From the regression equation, the optimum compost dose was 11.14 tons/ha, with a maximum weight of 6.26 kg of cobs without husks per plot. In rock phosphate treatment 150 kg/ha (p2), with the regression equation = 2.473 + 0.792 X - 0.038 X2 (R2� = 0.603). From the regression equation, it was obtained that the optimum compost dose was 10.42 tons/ha, with a maximum weight of 6.60 kg of cobs without husks per plot. In rock phosphate treatment 200 kg/ha (p3), with the regression equation = 4.227 + 0.292 X - 0.013 X2 (R2� = 0.980). From the regression equation, the optimum compost dose was 11.23 tons/ha, with a maximum weight of 5.87 kg of cobs without husks per plot.

Based on the results of the study, it was known that the highest weight of cobs without husks per plot was achieved in the combination treatment of p2k2 (rock phosphate 150 kg/ha and compost 10 tons/ha), which is 6.55 kg per plot or equivalent to 10.92 tons of cob without cobs per hectare. This indicates that the rock phosphate and compost fertilizer treatment is the optimal combination of treatments that can provide good cob weight without grain per plot.

Information: r =
correlation coefficient rof determination
= coefficient2as follows:
1.�� Based on the description above, the researcher concluded that plant height was positively related to the weight of the cob without husks per plot. This is becausethe higher the plant, the greater the photosynthate yield which is distributed to the cob weight organs without cob per plot, so that the cob weight is greater.
2.�� The relationship between the number of leaves per plant at the end of the observation (6 weeks after planting) and the weight of the cob without corns per plot was significantly different, with a correlation coefficient of 0.581. This means that the relationship between the number of leaves per plant at the age of 6 weeks after planting and the weight of the cob without cob per plot is 0.581, belonging to the medium closeness level. The value of the coefficient of determination (r2) was 0.338, meaning that the number of leaves per plant contributed to the weight of the cob without cob per plot of 0.338 (33.80%), and the remaining 66.20% was influenced by other factors not included in the model. From the results of the significance test, it was obtained that the Sig value, 2-tailed 0.000 was smaller than 0.05, meaning that the relationship between the number of leaves per plant and the weight of the cob without cob was significantly different.
3.�� The
relationship between the diameter of the stem at the end of the observation (6
weeks after planting) and the weight of the cob without husks per plot was
significantly different, with a correlation coefficient of 0.565. This means
that the relationship between the diameter of the stem at the age of 6 weeks
after planting and the weight of the cob without cob per plot is 0.565,
belonging to the moderate level of closeness. The coefficient of determination
(r2) was 0.319, meaning that the diameter of the stem contributed to
the weight of the cob without husks per plot of 0.319 (31.90%), and the
remaining 68.10% was influenced by other factors not included in the model.
From the results of the significance test, it was obtained that the Sig value,
2-tailed 0.000 was smaller than 0.05, meaning that the relationship between the
diameter of the stem and the weight of the cob without the cob was
significantly different.
4.�� The
relationship between leaf area index and cob weight without cob per plot was
significantly different, with a correlation coefficient of 0.372. This means
that the relationship between leaf area index and cob weight without cob per
plot is 0.372, belonging to a low level of closeness. The value of the
coefficient of determination (r2) was 0.138, meaning that the leaf
area index contributed to the weight of the cob without cobs per plot of 0.138
(13.80%), and the remaining 86.20% was influenced by other factors not included
in the model. From the results of the significance test, it was obtained that
the Sig value, 2-tailed 0.000 was smaller than 0.05, meaning that the
relationship between leaf area index and cob weight without plot was
significantly different.
5.�� The
relationship between the length of the cob and the weight of the cob without
husks per plot was significantly different, with a correlation coefficient of
0.534. This means that the relationship between the length of the cob and the
weight of the cob without the cob per plot is 0.534, belonging to the moderate
level of closeness. The coefficient of determination (r2) was 0.285,
meaning that the length of the cob contributed to the weight of the cob without
husks per plot of 0.285 (28.50%), and the remaining 71.50% was influenced by
other factors not included in the model. From the results of the significance
test, it was obtained that the Sig value, 2-tailed 0.001 was smaller than 0.05,
meaning that the relationship between leaf cob length and cob weight without
cob plots was significantly different.
Stem diameter was significantly
correlated with seed weight per plot,meaning
that plants with large stem diameters would produce higher yields. This happens because the corn stalk has a book where the
leaves grow. The larger the diameter of the stem, the more likely it is to
increase the leaf area which functions as a place for photosynthesis to take
place. Increasing the diameter of the stem has the opportunity to produce
fertile leaves.
6.�� The relationship between the diameter of the cobs and the weight of the cobs without husks per plot was significantly different, with a correlation coefficient of 0.521. This means that the relationship between the diameter of the cob and the weight of the cob without the cob per plot is 0.521, belonging to the moderate level of closeness. The coefficient of determination (r2) was 0.271, meaning that the diameter of the cob contributed to the weight of the cob without husks per plot of 0.271 (27.10%), and the remaining 72.90% was influenced by other factors not included in the model. From the results of the significance test, it was obtained that the Sig value, 2-tailed 0.001 was smaller than 0.05, meaning that the relationship between leaf cob diameter and cob weight without cob plots was significantly different.
Conclusion
Based on the results of
the research and discussion described above, the following conclusions can be
drawn: 1) There is an interaction effect between rock
phosphate and compost treatment on the weight of the cob without husks per
plot. Rock phosphate independently had an effect on the length of the ear,
diameter of the ear, weight of the ear without husks per plant, but had no
significant effect on plant height, number of leaves, stem diameter and leaf
area index. Compost independently affected plant height, number of leaves, stem
diameter, leaf area index, ear length, ear diameter and cob weight without cob
per plant. 2) The dose of rock phosphate 150 kg/ha and compost
10 tons/ha gave the highest weight of cob without husks per plot, which was
6.55 kg per plot or equivalent to 10.92 tons of cobs without corns per hectare. 3) There was a significant relationship between the growth component and
yield component and the weight of the stumps without tubers per plot. Plant
height, number of leaves, leaf area index, stem diameter, ear length and ear
diameter had a significant positive relationship to the weight of the cob
without cob per plot.
