Pupuk Tanaman Kelapa Sawit [ Palm Oil Fertilizer ]
Increased agricultural production can be achieved through appropriate technology approach, among others, by applying a balanced fertilizer technology specific location. Currently, the recommended fertilization technology is hardly practiced by most of Indonesian farmers, causing fertilization becomes unbalanced. The low knowledge of the importance of garden soil fertility data and carrying capacity of the plant nutrients for growth and production is characterized by low levels of productivity compared to crop genetics.
In support of balanced fertilization method can be performed using several types of single nutrients that are mixed in a simple ( simple blending) , or mixed mechanically ( mechanical blending) or by chemically mixing technology ( chemical blending) called compound fertilizer with nutrient composition or certain formula. While site-specific fertilization is approached by reading secondary data map of soil fertility in a region followed by listening to customer information will condition the garden. Information about the condition of crops farmers can also visually provide basic data for calculation of nutrient composition for preparing a fertilizer that will be manufactured at the factory.
Oil palm can be grown on podzolic soils, Latosol, Hidromorfik Grey, Alluvial or Regosol. The optimum pH value is 5, 0-5, 5. Oil palm requires loose soil, fertile, flat, well drained and have a deep solum layers without the layers of Rock. Topographical conditions of oil palm plantations should be no more than 15 degrees. Ensuring productivity to match the genetic, required a balanced nutrient intake according to the nature of growing oil palms. Type of fertilizer offered is a complete fertilizer containing N, P, K, Mg and B or single fertilizers ( Urea, TSP, KCl, Kieserite and Borax) . Extra fertilizing with manure Borax ( B) on young plants is very important, because of lack of Borax ( Boron deficiency) of heavy oil palms can be deadly.
Efforts to increase production and quality of fresh fruit bunches ( TBS) of palm oil is influenced by the nutrient content in plants. High or low nutrient content will determine the optimum level of growth and crop production. To determine the amount of fertilizer use needs, generally performed soil and leaf analysis. However, for various reasons, many planters did not have data on levels of soil fertility. Based on these conditions, we provide a fertilizer with a composition of content and type of nutrient that can be produced flexibly. Formula approach is based on secondary data available land fertility and understanding of garden conditions report, can be presented compound fertilizer tablets, Gramalet ® .
Gramalet ® Palm is a specific fertilizer for oil palm plantations and other palm group of plants such as palm ornament plant, areca nut and coconut. Formula or nutrient composition designed by considering the number and type of nutrient needs for growth and productivity of oil palm plantations.
Complete nutrient such as macro nutrient ( NPK) , secondary nutrient ( Mg, S, Ca) and micro-essential ( Fe, B, Bo, Mo, Mn, Zn, Cl) are presented in the form of tablets 10 grams size ( diameter 24 mm) in order ensure customers get a variety of complete fertilizer nutrients that already contains all the nutrients at once in each tablet, registered with the Ministry of Agriculture Decree No: T904 / BSP / II / 2003.
How application is to make holes around the circle or disk surrounding the base of the stem up to half the distance to the base of the canopy ( side dish) , and drill set point - the point / hole with a depth of 10-15 cm from the face of the ground and then place the fertilizer at the Gramalet four tablet of the wind ( 4 point or 8 point) .
Fertilizer inputs and a half the number of recommended doses per year, the number of tablets split evenly at every point with a depth of 10-15 cm from soil surface. Fertilization is done once per 6 months or 2 times per year, in a state of land with high fertility can be done once per year. Fertilization is done any time there is minimal moisture in the soil, nutrients in manure can be removed slowly Gramalet.
Examples of oil producing plants age 5 ( TM 5) only requires a Gramalet fertilizer dose of 178 kg / ha / yr on the average population of 143 trees / ha or 1.250 g / tree / 6 months. Additions kiserite ( MgO) or dolomite to the plantation on peat soil area is recommended at least 200 kg per ha / year.
By presenting the composition formula of specific nutrients for plants as well as palm and other palms are presented in the form of tablets, ensure the cost savings of fertilizer per hectare in addition to ease of transportation and storage of fertilizer so that maintenance costs become more expensive plants with fertilizer applications become practical.
Quality Standard of complete granular compound tablets, Gramalet among others:
1) . nutrient fertilizer containing at least 3 primary macro nutrients ( Nitrogen, Phosfat / K2O5 and Potassium K2O / NPK) , secondary macro nutrients ( magnesium or Kieserite / Mg, Sulfur / S and Calcium / Ca) and micro essential nutrient ( Fe, Cu, Zn, B, Bo, and molybdate / Mo) ,
2) . tablet form - the result of the integration of physics at a certain pressure / cm 2 so that the unification of nutrients is solid and compact, capable of removing nutrients in a controlled ( slow release)
3) are presented from selected raw materials such as urea, Super phosfat ( SP) and KCL and the sources of Mg and Ca from Kieserite ( MgCaO) Ex China or Germany - which has advantages such as the level of water soluble ( solubility in water that absorbed by plants) is high and guaranteed not to be bound in a chelate compound ( which protects nutrients from water absorption) .
4) . contains important micro nutrient elements - including Mo ( molibdium) .
Gramalet ® Palm has a composition NPKMg S, Ca and micro elements are: 14-8-21-3-6-1 Micro Element ( Fe, B, Bo, Mo, Mn, Zn, Cl) using the following packaging specifications:
a) packaging in the ( inner packing) : Plastic PE 0, 8 to 1, water and air-tight containers, the capacity of 5 kg ( gross weight)
b) The outer packaging ( outer packing) made out of cardboard D / W: a) Size: ( 360 x 355 x 263) mm b) Type of cardboard: K 200 / 150 / K200 c) Capacity: 20 Kg.
With these specifications ensure packaging as transportation, storage and handling of inter-regional transport, including handling at the port becomes more secure, inexpensive and easy.
