Abstract

This research was conducted from August to November 2023 at the Green House UPA Agrotechnology Garden, University of Jember. This study was conducted to determine the effect and optimal concentration of each treatment and treatment combination. This research was carried out experimentally with a factorial Completely Randomized Design (RAL) because it uses two factors, a total of 16 treatments with 3 replications in each treatment with parameters of plant height, number of leaves, wet weight, dry weight, and consumption weight. Observation data were then analyzed using ANOVA test with a significant level of 5% using SPSS. After that followed by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) was conducted with 95% confidence level. The results showed that there was an interaction in the combination of the addition of natural cytokinin hormon of young corn grains and chicken manure on the growth and production of pakcoy plants (Brassica rapa L.), as evidenced by the interaction in the data analysis of plant height 14 HST, number of leaves 28 HST, and dry weight of plants. The combination of the concentration of natural cytokinin hormon corn grain and the dose of chicken manure that is optimal for the growth and production of pakcoy (Brassica rapa L.) is S1K3 with a concentration of cytokinin hormon 10 mL/L and a dose of chicken manure 450 grams/polybag. The results of the research were poured into a popular scientific book product which was then validated and received an average score of 82.3% with decent criteria.
