Application of Trichoderma on single bud Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L) seedlings originated from different stems

The aim of this study was to determine the growth of sugarcane seeds using Trichoderma application and different parts of the stems using the single bud method. The research was conducted at the Experimental Garden at the Faculty of Agriculture, Hasanuddin University, Tamalanrea, Makassar. The research took place from July to November 2018. This research was conducted in the form of a two-factor factorial experiment which was arranged based on a randomized block design. The first factor is Trichoderma with 3 levels of doses, namely without Trichoderma, 15 g / polybag and 30 g / polybag, while the second factor is the stem which consists of the upper stem, middle stem and lower stem which consists of 9 treatment combinations, respectively. -Each treatment was repeated 3 times (3 polybags / treatment) so that the total poly bag used was 81. The results showed that treatment without Trichoderma gave the best results on plant height, namely 13.91 cm at 2 WAP. While the treatment of the middle stem gave the best results on the number of tillers, namely 10.71.
