Description
Summary:Proper drip irrigation techniques can optimize the use of water in crop cultivation. Pak Choy (Brassica rapa subsp. chinensis) is one of the commodities that can grow and produce more effectively using drip irrigation techniques. This study aims to look at the growth response and production of Pak Choy plants using drip irrigation system techniques. This research was conducted in Gunungsitoli, North Sumatra. The method used is a randomized design of groups (RAK) with 2 treatment factors, namely liquid organic fertilizer with drip irrigation system. The factor of liquid organic fertilizer (P) consists of 3 levels, namely P0 = Control; P1 = 2 ml/l; P2 = 4 ml/l. Drip irrigation factor (I) consists of 3 levels, namely: K0 = Control; I1 = 35 drops/minute; I2 = 45 drops/minute. The results showed drip irrigation techniques had a significant effect on the number of leaves (strands) 25 days after planting and 30 days after planting, and had no significant effect on the height of plants and the wet weight of Pak Choy plants.
