- Abstract
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the food crops included in the type of cereal plant and plays an important role in the economic life of the Indonesian people. The growth and yield of rice plants are largely determined by the amount and type of fertilizer applied. PT Pupuk Iskandar Muda (PT PIM) is a subsidiary of PT Pupuk Indonesia (Persero) engaged in the chemical industry, especially producing urea, ammonia, NPK, and Polivit fertilizers. Various types of fertilizers produced by PT PIM are applied to various plants, especially rice plants. This research aimed to determine the effect of PIM commercial fertilizer on the growth, yield and economic analysis of rice plants. This research was done in Pinto Makmur Village, Muara Batu District, Aceh Regency from June 2020 to December 2020. The environmental design used was a single factor Randomized Block Design (RBD). The types of treatment were three fertilizers produced by PT PIM (PT PIM’S NPK-UP, PT PIM’S NPK-U, and PT PIM’S NPK) and one type of competitor fertilizer. The results showed that PIM commercial fertilizers could increase the growth and yield of rice plants. This can be seen from the variables of plant height, the maximum number of tillers, panicle length, grain weight per panicle, and dry milled grain yield. The best treatment is PT PIM’S NPK-UP (NPK Fertilizer + Urea + PT PIM Polivit). PT PIM commercial fertilizer can be applied to rice cultivation as it can provide benefits. The treatment that can produce an R/C value > 1 is PT PIM’S NPK-UP fertilizer (NPK + Urea + Polivit PT PIM fertilizer).
