Pengaruh Pemberian Pupuk Organik Cair terhadap Peningkatan Senyawa Flavonoid, Klorofil, dan Protein Ricegrass sebagai Tanaman Sela Kelapa Sawit

Abstract

Ricegrass is a young plant that is harvested at the age of 7-14 days after planting has high antioxidant content such as flavonoids, chlorophylls and proteins and can be consumed in the form of fresh juice. The aim of this study is to study the influence of the supply of liquid organic fertilizer on the increase of flavonoid compounds, chlorophyll, ricegrass protein. This research was conductedon the sidelines of an oil palm TBM in Bulu Cina Village, Hamparan Perak District in January-February 2023, using a non-factorial randomized group scheme with several concentrations of liquid organic fertilizer 0, 5, 10, and 15 ml/liter of water as well as seeds of red rice varieties Inpari 24 Gabusan. The results of the study showed that the administration of liquid organic fertilizer concentrations of 0, 5, 10 and 15 ml/l of water was not significant in increasing flavonoid compounds, chlorophylls, ricegrass proteins with observation parameters of plant height 15.43 cm, wet weight 220.67 grams, total flavonoid content 34.01 mgQE/g, chlorophyll a, b and total levels respectively 31.86 mg/L, 34.84 mg/L, and 66.62 mg/L and soluble protein 0.099 µL/g
