Abstract

Breadfruit (Artocarpus communis Forst) is a plant that has many benefits, which is able to support the welfare of the community. To cultivate these plants required effective and efficient techniques. This study aims to determine the effect of bagasse mulch thickness and intervals of watering to growth of breadfruit. This study used a complete randomized design (RAL) with 2 factors. The first factor is the thickness factor of bagasse mulch (T) which consists of control/without treatment (T0), thickness 1 cm (T1), thickness 3 cm (T2) and thickness 5 cm (T3) and the second factor is watering interval (S) consisting of daily watering (S1), 1 time in 3 days (S2) and 1 time in 6 days (S3). The observed parameters were height increase (cm), diameter (cm), number of leaves (strands), length of root (cm), upper water content of plants (shoot)(%) and moisture content (root)(%). The results showed that there is a real effect on the growth of breadfruit with the treatment of various of bagasse mulch thickness to height increase, diameter, number of leaves, length of root, and upper water content of plants. And the treatment of watering interval showed the real effect on the parameters of height increase, diameter, number of leaves and length of root.
