Optimization of Drying Time and Eco Enzyme Concentration on Shallot Production (Allium cepa L.)
Abstract
Eco enzyme is a complex solution derived from the fermentation of organic matter, characterized by a light to dark brown color and a fresh, sour aroma. Fermentation yields environmentally friendly enzymes and other functional components beneficial for agriculture. Eco enzymes offer various advantages for shallot plants, including enhanced growth and increased shallot production. This study aims to investigate the effects of watering frequency and Eco enzyme concentration on the growth and yield of shallots (Allium cepa L.). A randomized block design (RBD) was employed, incorporating two treatment factors: the watering timing and the eco enzyme concentration. The treatment factors are as follows: Factor I, Watering Time (W), consists of three treatment levels: 1 time per day, 1 time every two days, and 1 time every three days. Factor II, Concentration of Eco Enzyme (E), includes three treatment levels: 0.8 ml per 240 ml of water per plant, 1.6 ml per 240 ml of water per plant, and 2.4 ml per 240 ml of water per plant. The observed variables in this study were the number of tubers per sample (cloves), the fresh weight of tubers per sample (grams), and root length (centimeters). The results indicated that both the timing of watering and the application of eco-enzyme concentrations significantly affected the number of tubers per sample, the fresh weight of tubers per sample, and root length.
