Abstract

Kemiri sunan (Reutealis trisperma (Blanco) Airy Shaw) is one of the plants that produce vegetable oil which can be processed into biodiesel and can be planted on marginal land. In order to have a better vegetative growth of plants, fertilization technology can be carried out on immature plants by giving chitosan. This research was carried out in Kelir Mountain energy garden from January to May 2018 using a complete randomized block design of two factors, namely concentration and frequency of chitosan distribution. The results showed that there was an interaction between the treatment of chitosan concentration and the frequency of chitosan distribution in the addition of stem diameter in 70 and 90 days after the initial observation and the increase in the number of the secondary branches on 90 days after the initial observation. The concentration of 20 and 30 ml / l chitosan and the frequency of 4 times chitosan distribution gave a better effect than other treatments. Plants that were treated with chitosan had a better vegetative growth than those without chitosan (control).
