Abstract
This study aims to determine the effect of goat manure and NPK fertilizer on the growth and production of tomato (Lycopersicon Esculentum). The research was conducted in the village of Jiken, Tulangan District, Sidoarjo Regency, from June to August 2020. The experiment was arranged in a factorial using a randomized block design. The first factor is the manure dosage consisting of 0 and 10 tons / ha, while the second factor is the NPK fertilizer dosage consisting of 0, 50, 150, 250, and 350 kg / ha. The experiment was repeated 3 times in order to obtain 30 experimental units. The variables observed were plant height (cm), number of leaves (strands), leaf area (cm2), stem diameter (mm) and vitamin C content (%). Observation data will be analyzed with ANOVA 5% followed by the BNJ 5% test to determine the differences between treatments. The results showed that there was no significant interaction between the dosage treatment of goat manure and NPK fertilizer on all observation variables. Meanwhile, the manure dose treatment showed a significant effect on the variable weight of tomato fruit.
