Abstract

Cassava is one of the carbohydrate-producing food plants that is widely used by the community. Lampung Province is the number one largest cassava producing province in Indonesia. One way to increase the yield and growth of cassava plants used in this study is fertilization. In addition to macro elements. Cassava plants also need a balanced micro element. one of which is boron (B). In the dry land of Lampung, there is almost no data regarding the application of boron for increasing cassava yield. The purpose of this research was to evaluate vegetative growth and to determine the economic yield as applied by micro element of B. The results showed that the application of B fertilizer to cassava had a significant effect on vegetative growth as plant height. number of leaves. and economic yield as number of roots. root weight. but not starch content. It seems that dose of 0.63 kg B ha-1 could improve the vegetative growth and economic yield of UJ-5 especially at 10 MAP. The recommendation of B to produce the optimum root weight of UJ-5 was 0.63 kg B ha-1 as 1.98 kg root weight plant-1.
