Abstract:
Reclamation activities are efforts to repair or restore damaged land and vegetation in order to function optimally in accordance with its designation (Government Regulation Number 76 of 2008). The important component in reclamation is revegetation or replanting. Improvements in the quality of land in revegetation need to be done to improve the success of revegetation. Giving organic material is the main key to improving soil layers. This study aims to determine
the effect of compost on the growth of Sengon (Paraserianthes falcataria) plants located on peaks, slopes, and valleys. The analytical method used is a randomized block design (RBD) of two factors. The first factor is the topographic position of the peaks, slopes, and valleys. The second factor is the fertilizer dose consisting of a dose of 1 kg, a dose of 2 kg and a dose of 3 kg. The growth assessed is the size of the diameter and height of the plant. Fertilizers used compost. The treatment of compost dosing and slope position significantly affected the increase in the diameter and height of the plant. The dominant compost dose affects the increase in diameter and height of Paraserianthes falcataria.
