Response of Growth and Production of Shallots (Allium Ascalonicum L) to the Application of Chicken Manure and Volcanic Ash

The production of shallots can still be increased through technical improvements in cultivation, such as the application organic fertilizers and eruption Mount Merapi (volcanic ash). Organic have a significant role improving chemical biological properties soil do not negative impact on environment, although nutrient content manure is high that artificial fertilizers. This study aims to determine effect chicken volcanic ash growth (Allium ascalonicum L). research method used was factorial randomized block design (RAK) consisting two treatment factors, namely factor I ( A) II (V). results showed had plant height, number leaves, tuber diameter, wet weight, dry weight. Volcanic no number, interaction between tubers,
