UJI VARIETAS DAN JARAK TANAM TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN HASIL TANAMAN BAWANG MERAH

One of the efforts that can be made to produce more optimal shallot products is to test varieties and spacing, so we know that shallot plants can grow well in lowland areas where the weather is cool throughout the year. This study aims to find out which varieties are able to grow well and give maximum results in the area of Sangatta, East Kutai Regency. The research was conducted from March to May 2022, on the farmers' land at JL.Ring Road Sangatta Selatan. The method used was a factorial Randomized Block Design (RAK), the shallot variety treatment (V) consisted of the bauji variety (V1), the long Blue variety (V2) and the Palu Valley Variety (V3) and the Planting Spacing (J) consisted of Planting Distance 10 X 20 (J1), Spacing 15 X 20 (J2) and Spacing 20 X 20 which were repeated 3 times, so that there were 27 treatment plots, each plot consisting of 4 sample plants. The results showed that the long blue variety (V2) showed the best growth and production, while the best spacing was 15 x 20 cm (J2) and the best interaction was obtained in the V2J2 treatment (long blue variety and 15 x 20 cm spacing)
