Abstract

Corn (Zea mays) is one of the crop commodities that continues to be developed due to its usefulness, but its production is low due to a lack of balanced fertilization. The purpose of this study was to see the interaction effect of Trichoderma sp biopriming treatment and liquid fertilizer on the growth and production of corn plants. The research method was arranged in factorial form in a randomized block design. The first factor was Trichoderma biopriming and the second factor was liquid fertilizer. The results showed that the combination treatment of biopriming and liquid fertilizer enriched with Trichoderma sp and 2 grams of NPK gave the best results for number of leaves 13.17, stem diameter 1.25, fruit weight 125.50, cob weight 24.33, seed weight 90, 13. The results showed that the combination of bio-priming with liquid fertilizer enriched with Trichoderma sp and 2 grams of NPK gave better growth and production of corn.
