UTILIZATION OF SOLID ORGANIC FERTILIZER FROM SQUID AND QUICK WASTE ON NECTAR PRODUCTION AND PALM POLLEN MORPHOLOGY AS BEES FEED

Abstract

Objective of the study is to determine the effect of the use of solid organic fertilizer from quail waste and squid waste on nectar production and pollen morphology of mustard plants as bee feed. The research method used in this study was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) experiment consisting of 6 treatments and 4 replications, and if there were differences, it was continued with Duncan's Multiple Real Test (DMRT). The results showed that the variation in the ratio of giving planting media in the form of solid organic fertilizer from squid waste and quail waste had a very significant effect (P<0.01) on mustard pollen morphology, such as: pollen shape, polar diameter and equatorial diameter. The conclusion of this study is the use of solid organic fertilizer on quail waste and squid waste with a ratio of 50% quail + 50% squid (P3) gives the best results on the morphology of mustard pollen as bee feed and can have a fairly positive effect on generative and vegetative growth. mustard greens from the nectar produced.
