Abstract

Developing technology to support sustainable agriculture through environmentally sound approaches to enhance growth and yield of rice is needed. Utilization of agricultural waste products for further agricultural processes is a form of sustainability. Boiler ash is a waste as a result from combustion of bagasse generated in the sugar production process. It can be used as organic fertilizer, because it contains Silicon and other nutrients. The objective of this research was to examine the effect of boiler ash application and spraying frequency of Liquid Organic Fertilizer (LOF) Bacteria + LOF “Plus” on growth and rice yield. The experiment was conducted at Bener Village, Ngrampal sub-district, Sragen district, Indonesia, from November 2012 until February 2013. The experiment was arranged into Randomized Completely Block Design Split Plot with three replicates. The main plot was boiler ash application consisting of two treatments, ie., boiler ash 10 ton/ha and without boiler ash. Sub plot was spraying frequency of LOF Bacteria + LOF “Plus” consisting of five treatments, ie., spraying LOF Bacteria + LOF “Plus” two times, three times, four times, five times and.six times. The data were subjected to analysis of variance followed by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test. The results showed that plants treated with boiler ash 10 ton/ha and sprayed with LOF bacteria + LOF “Plus”four times resulted in the highest growth and rice yield and the lowest number of un-productive panicles. Keywords: boiler ash, LOF bacteria, LOF “Plus”, rice yield
