The use of 32P and 15N to Estimate Fertilizer Efficiency in Oil Palm

Oil palm has become an important commodity for Indonesia reaching an area of 2.6 million ha at the end of 1998. It is mostly cultivated in highly weathered acid soil usually Ultisols and Oxisols which are known for their low fertility, concerning the major nutrients like N and P. This study most conducted to search for the most active root-zone of oil palm and applied urea fertilizer at such soils to obtain high N-efficiency. Carrier free KH232PO4 solution was used to determine the active root-zone of oil palm by applying 32P around the plant in twenty holes. After the most active root-zone have been determined, urea in one, two and three splits were respectively applied at this zone. To estimate N-fertilizer efficiency of urea labelled 15N Ammonium Sulphate was used by adding them at the same amount of 16 g 15N plant-1. This study showed that the most active root-zone was found at a 1.5 m distance from the plant-stem and at 5 cm soil depth. For urea the highest N-efficiency was obtained from applying it  at  two splits. The use of 32P was able to distinguish several root zones: 1.5 m – 2.5 m from the plant-stem at a 5 cm and 15 cm soil depth. Urea placed at the most active root-zone, which was at a 1.5 m distance from the plant-stem and at a 5 cm depth in one, two, and three splits respectively showed difference N-efficiency. The highest N-efficiency of urea was obtained when applying it in two splits at the most active root-zone

THE USE OF 32 P AND 15 N TO ESTIMATE FERTILIZER EFFICIENCY IN OIL PALM

ABSTRACT THE USE OF 32 P AND 15 N TO ESTIMATE FERTILIZER EFFICIENCY IN OIL PALM. Oil palm has become an important commodity for Indonesia reaching an area of 2.6 million ha at the end of 1998. It is mostly cultivated in highly weathered acid soil usually Ultisols and Oxisols which are known for their low fertility, concerning the major nutrients like N and P. This study most conducted to search for the most active root-zone of oil palm and applied urea fertilizer at such soils to obtain high N-efficiency. Carrier free KH 2 32 PO 4 solution was used to determine the active root-zone of oil palm by applying 32 P around the plant in twenty holes. After the most active root-zone have been determined, urea in one, two and three splits were respectively applied at this zone. To estimate N-fertilizer efficiency of urea labelled 15 N Ammonium Sulphate was used by adding them at the same amount of 16 g 15 N plant -1 . This study showed that the most active root-zone was found at a 1.5 m distance from the plant-stem and at 5 cm soil depth. For urea the highest N-efficiency was obtained from applying it at two splits. The use of 32 P was able to distinguish several root zones: 1.5 m -2.5 m from the plant-stem at a 5 cm and 15 cm soil depth. Urea placed at the most active root-zone, which was at a 1.5 m distance from the plant-stem and at a 5 cm depth in one, two, and three splits respectively showed difference N-efficiency. The highest N-efficiency of urea was obtained when applying it in two splits at the most active root-zone

Need Analysis on English for Specific Purposes of Marketing Major Students

This study aims at determining the teaching materials needed by marketing students at SMKN 1 Kota Bengkulu and analyzing students' needs in learning English at SMKN 1 Kota Bengkulu. The subjects of this study were thirty four students of grade 10 students at SMKN 1 Kota Bengkulu. There were 34 students who participated in this research gathered by using purposive sampling The research method in this research was descriptive qualitative, and the instruments used in data collection were questionnaires, interviews and documentation. The results showed that teaching materials that have not been specific and English learning materials that are still general in nature, and ESP material have not yet available at SMKN 1 Kota Bengkulu. Second, the data indicated that the English language skill most needed by marketing students was speaking, and they claimed speaking was a useful skill to support their future work. In conclusion, this study recommends teachers at SMKN 1 Kota Bengkulu to pay more attention to the students ‘needs in learning English as solution to improve their abilities in learning English
