Coffee


I. INTRODUCTION
Coffee Plant is a plant that is very familiar in the yards of rural population in Indonesia. If the potential of this powerful we can use commodity is not hard to make this a mainstay in the plantation sector. Just need a little touch of the technical cultivation
right, surely we are optimistic expectations into reality.

PT. Natural Nusantara trying to realize the hope along with a package of technical guidance and products without forgetting the aspect of K-3 is the quantity, quality and sustainability that has become one of the conditions of competition in the era of globalization.

II. LAND PREPARATION
- For the mountainous land / tilt for terrace.
- Reduce / add a fast growing shade trees approximately 1:4 to 1: 8 of the number of coffee plants.
- Prepare the manure as much as 25-50 kg cooked, spread the Natural GLIO, let stand one week and make the planting holes 60 x 60, or 75 x 75 cm with a spacing of 2.5 x2, 5 to 2.75 x 2.75 m at least 2 months before planting

III. SEEDLINGS
- Prepare a quality seeds from trees that have been known production of breeder seed is usually reliable.
- Create a box or bumbunan soil for seeding with a thick layer of sand about 5 cm.
- Create a shield with a midrib or paranet with a gradual reduction if the seedlings have grown
- Flush nurseries with the routine by looking at soil wetness
- Seeds will germinate more or less a month, select the seeds are healthy and do transfer to polybags with hati2 so roots are not broken in seeds 2 -3 months of age since the beginning of breeding
- Add NPK fertilizer as basal fertilizer (see table) until the age of 12 months
- Pour SUPERNASA dose of 1 tablespoon per 10 liters of water, take 250 ml per tree of the solution
- After the seedling age of 4 months 2 cap NASA POC spray per tank once a month until the age of 7-9 months and seedlings ready for planting

Note: The type and dose of fertilizer could be as recommended by the local agricultural bureau. Note the soil moisture so that seeds are not affected by leaf rust attack.

IV. PLANTING
- Enter the manure with a mixture of top soil when planting seeds.
- Try planting time already entered the rainy season.
- Perform watering the soil after planting
- Avoid the risk of death of new crops from livestock disturbance.

V. Stitching
- Perform stitching immediately if the plant dies or symptoms of abnormal growth.
- Stitching done early rainy season

VI. Sprinkling
Do watering when the soil is dry or drought

VII. Fertilization
- Fertilization of NPK is given twice a year, the beginning and end of the rainy season.
- After the fertilizer should be watered.

How to fertilization made a small hole around the plant as far as ¾ of the width of the canopy, ground manure entered and closed.
It would be better plus organic fertilizer SUPERNASA dose of 1 bottle to ± 200 plants. 1 bottle SUPERNASA diluted in 2-liter (2000 ml) of water used as mother liquor. Then every 1 liter of water was given 10 ml of mother liquor was for watering each tree or flush or kocorkan SUPERNASA 1 tablespoon per 10 liters of water every 3-6 months.
NASA POC spray cap 3-4 + 1-2 HORMONIK cap per tank every 1 month

VIII. Pruning
Perform regular pruning after the end of the harvest (severe pruning) to regulate the shape of growth, reduce branch shoots (wiwilan), aims to reduce evaporation and to form flowers, and the repair of damaged plant parts.
Pruning at the beginning or end of the rainy season after fertilization

IX. PEST AND DISEASE CONTROL

A. H A M A
1. Powdered coffee fruit (Stephanoderes hampei) attacks on fruit storage or while still in the garden. Prevention with BVR PESTONA or alternately
2. Branch borer brown and black (Cylobarus morigerus and Compactus) attacked twigs and branches. Prevention with PESTONA.
3. Fleas dompolan (Pseudococcus citri) attack flower buds, young fruit, twigs and young leaves, preventing use PESTONA, BVR or pentane. + AERO 810 alternately

B. DISEASE
1. Leaf rust disease caused by Hemileia vastatrix, preventive spray Natural GLIO
2. The fungus disease caused by Corticium salmonicolor Upas: Reduce moisture, scrape and apply preventive stem / twig with Natural GLIO + NASA POC
3. Black root disease causes Rosellina bunodes and R. arcuata. Marked with yellow leaves, wilting, hang and fall. Natural preventive GLIO
4. Brown root disease cause: Fomes lamaoensis or preventive Natural Phellinus lamaoensis GLIO
5. Disease brown spots on leaves by Cercospora cafeicola Berk et Cooke prevention with Natural GLIO
6. Died of disease at the end of Rhizoctonia ranting.Penyebabnya. GLIO Natural Preventative use.

Note: If the control of pests and diseases with natural pesticides have not been overcome, as the last alternative could be to use chemical pesticides are recommended. In order to spray more evenly and not easily lost by rainwater add Adhesives Straighten wetting AERO 810 dose of 0.5 bottles per tank cap

X. P A N E N
Coffee will be in production starting age of 2.5 years if well cared for and the fruit has shown the red color covering most of the plant, and carried out gradually according to the time of fruit maturity.

XI. PROCESSING RESULTS
To be prepared first place for drying, shelling and storage of crops from being damaged due to post-harvest pests. Fruit crops must be processed immediately after picking up to 20 hours to get good results.

Coffee Causes Damage to Rice:
1. Wrinkled seeds: origin of the fruit is still young
2. Bean hole: coffee powder attacked
3. Seeds reddish: Less clean wash
4. Seed rupture: parer less than perfect, is derived from the infected fruit powder, while stripping the coffee machine is too dry.
5. Broken seeds followed by color changes: evaporator and separator machine with seeds less than perfect skin, wet processing of fermentation in less than perfect.
6. Bean mottle: drying is incomplete, too long stored, the storage temperature is too moist.
7. Seed Pale: for too long kept in a humid
8. Seed skinned ari: Drying is not perfect or too long, the artificial drying temperature is too low early.
9. Gray, black beans: the artificial drying temperature is too high.
10. Dark brown spots: the artificial drying, the coffee is not often stirred / inverted.

Coconut


Coconut

(Cocos nucifera)

1.1. Brief History

Coconut plantation crops / industry in the form of tree trunks straight from the family Palmae. There are two opinions on the origins of oil that is from South America by DF Cook, Van Martius Beccari and Thor Herjerdahl and from Asia or the Indo-Pacific by Berry, Werth, Mearil, Mayurathan, Lepesma, and Pureseglove. Coco word was first used by Vasco da Gama, or can also be called Nux Indica, al djanz Al Kindi, ganz-ganz, nargil, narlie, tenga, temuai, coconut, and the tree of life.

1.2. Investment Centers

Coconut is widely available in countries of Asia and the Pacific that produces 5.276 million tonnes (82%) of world production with an area of ​​± 8.875 million ha (1984) covering 12 countries, while the rest of the countries in Africa and South America. Indonesia is the largest Coconut (3.334 million ha in 1990) spread in Riau, Central Java, West Java, East Java, Jambi, Aceh, North Sumatra, North Sulawesi, NTT, Central Sulawesi, South Sulawesi and the Moluccas, but the Filipinos under production (2.472 million tons with area of ​​3.112 million ha), amounting to 2.346 million tonnes.

1.3. Types of Plants

Coconut (Cocos nucifera) including familia Palmae divided into three: (1) Coconut in a variety viridis (green coconut), rubescens (red coconut), Macrocorpu (coconut gray), Sakarina (coconut sweet, (2) Coconut varieties genjah Eburnea ( ivory palm), regia varieties (king palm), pumila (coconut quail), pretiosa (king coconut Malabar), and (3) Coconut hybrid

1.4. Benefits of Plants

Coconut tree called life, because every part of the plant can be utilized as follows: (1) coir: coir fiber, mats, brooms, mats, fabric spring bed, (2) shell: charcoal, active carbon and crafts, (3) meat fruit: copra, coconut oil, coconut cream, coconut milk, grated dry coconut (desiccated coconut), (4) coconut water: vinegar, Nata de Coco, (5) rods klelapa: building materials for the frame or the roof, (6) coconut leaves : Lidi for brooms, woven goods (party decorations or Mayang), (7) sap of coconut: brown sugar (coconut)

II. GROWTH CONDITIONS

2.1. Climate

1.

Coconut grows well in areas with rainfall between 1300-2300 mm / year, even up to 3800 mm or more, as long as the soil has good drainage. However, the distribution of rainfall, the ability of soil to hold rainwater and ground water depth, is more important than the amount of rainfall throughout the year.
2.

Wind plays an important role in pollinating flowers (for cross pollination) and plant transpiration.
3.

Coconut liked the long exposure to sunlight with a minimum of 120 hours / month as an energy source of photosynthesis. When shaded, the growth of young plants and fruit will be too late.
4.

Coconut is very sensitive to low temperatures and grow best at a temperature of 20-27 degrees C. At a temperature of 15 degrees C, there will be changes in physiological and morphological plant coconut.
5.

Coconut grows well in average monthly rH 70-80% minimum of 65%. When the air is very low rH, high evapotranspiration, plant drought early fruit fall (before cooking), but when the rH is too high causing pests and diseases

2.2. Media Plant

1.

Coconut plants grown on different soil types such as alluvial, laterite, volcanic, sandy, clay, or rocky ground, but the best in alluvial deposits.
2.

Coconuts can thrive at pH 5-8, optimum at pH 5.5-6,5. In soil with pH above 7.5 and there is no balance of nutrients, often show symptoms of iron deficiency and manganese.
3.

Coconut requires available soil water conditions ie when the moisture content of soil at a rate of evapotranspirasirasi or when water supply plus rainfall during a month is greater than or equal to potential evapotranspiration, the soil water is available. Soil water balance is influenced by physical properties of soil especially organic matter content and soil cover conditions. Container or the desired minimum soil depth of 80-100 cm.
4.

Coconut plants require land that is flat (0-3%). At the level of land slope is high (30-50%) should be created terraces to prevent soil damage by erosion, maintain soil fertility and improve soil that had erasi.

2.3. Altitude Place
Coconut plants grow well lowland areas with optimal height of 0-450 m above sea level. At an altitude of 450-1000 m above sea level late fruiting time, the production of small and low oil levels.

III. TECHNICAL GUIDELINES FOR CULTIVATION

Pahitan (Paspalum konjugatum)
5.

Sembung vine (Mikania cordata); these plants remove toxic to plant roots lainmelalui fluid that can suppress the activities of nitrogen-fixing bacteria.
6.

Chicken droppings (Lantana camara)
7.

Kipahit (Euphathorium odorotum); this plant can reach a height of 4-5
8.

ether and shaped shrubs.

Ways to eradicate weeds, including:

1.

Mechanical weeding: (1) clean weeding, weed control as a whole in the area of ​​cultivation, (2) selecting weeding, weed control around plants alone (making the dish); on 0-1 year old plants radius of 100 cm. In the 1-2 year old plants 150 cm radius, in plants older than 2 years of radius 200 cm, (3) disc scratched with a hoe, grass was removed kelur dish, 1 x 1-month intervals, (4) stripe weeding, control weeds are brindle.
2.

Chemically weeding: (1) mixing with water paracol liter/450 2.5 to 3 liters, (2) incorporate the herbicide into the sprayer tank and pump to limit the barometer on the red mark (auto), for semi-automatic spraying srayer while pumping; (3) spraying the weeds, with attention to safety (wind direction, masks and gloves), (4) when spraying precise estimate of 6 hours after spraying does not rain. If necessary use the stickers (adhesives and spray grading), (5) the time interval 1 x 3 months.

This type of herbicide used: (1) contact herbicides, herbicides kill only the plant part affected by this poison weeds, (2) systemic herbicide, herbicide which when worn on one part of the plant will be spread throughout the plant via the circulation of water and substances nutrient, and then turn off the existing network above and below the ground surface.

3.6. Harvest

3.6.1. Characteristics and Harvest
Characteristics: ± 12 months old, 4 / 5 parts of dry skin, brown, kandungn reduced water and when shaken crake.

3.6.2. How to Harvest

1.

Coconuts allowed to fall: deficiency, which is the fruit that fell was over cooked, so it is not suitable for raw material feedstock copra or dried coconut grated coconut (desiccated coconut).
2.

How to climb: done in the dry season only. Advantages: (1) can clean the crown of leaves, (2) can pick coconuts are harvested with the ability of an average of 25 trees per person. The weakness is damaging the trees, because they have to make the plane to stand. In some areas of the island of Sumatra, often picking done by apes (monkeys). Picking speed by 400 monkey eggs a day with 1 hour rest period, but monkeys can not clean the crown of leaves and less selectivity.
3.

How to harvest with the pole: using bamboo jointing and sharp edges attached hook-shaped knife. The ability of picking an average of 100 trees / person / day.

3.6.3. Harvest Period

Frequency of harvest can be done once a month to wait for the fall of coconuts that have been cooked, but generally the crop carried out on two and even three bunches at a time. It is not so influential on the quality of the fruit because, according to Padua and Banson Resurrection (1979) levels of fatty acids in coconut oil which comes from the munitions was three months younger than the same fruit bunches harvested so that harvesting costs can be saved.

3.6.4. Production Forecast
Production of palm fruit crop varieties depend, plant age, soil conditions, climate, and maintenance. Menghasilakn usually an average of 2.3 tons of copra / ha / year at the age of 12-25 years. As for coconut hybrids at the age of 10-25 years could generate an average of 3.9 tons / ha / year.

3.7. Postharvest

3.7.1. Collection
Dikumpulah using a basket of fruit or a means of transport available. Then all the fruit harvest is collected in Place Collection Results (TPH).

3.7.2. Sorting and Classification

Sorting fruit and fruit calculations performed every block of the garden after harvest at the end of the month. The fruit is sorted is empty there was no water, no loud noise when shaken, broken / Lika taxable pests, decay and also to the small palm cracked grain, germination undercooked or coconut, and then stored in a storage bin beraerasi good.

3.7.3. Storage

Coconuts saved by:
a) stack of fruit piled high with a maximum of 1 meter
b) and pyramidal-shaped piles of loose
c) stacks are routinely observed in the warehouse.

The requirements repository as follows:
a) fresh and dry air
b) does not leak and the rain
c) no direct sun
d) air temperature in the warehouse 25-27 degrees C.

3.7.4. Packaging and Transport
Coconuts will be sold first if the outer skin peeled and wrapped in burlap sacks or synthetic sacks. Freight can be carried by truck, ship or conveyance accordingly.

3.7.5. Other Handling

1.

Copra; copra is made from coconut meat by lowering its water content. to: (1) preservation, this way will prevent the growth of fungi, insects, and bacteria that can eat meat and coconut oil damage, (2) reducing the weight, thus reducing the cost of transporting and handling, (3) concentrating the oil, the oil content in copra approximately 65-68%. Method of making copra is by drying the fruit flesh with sunlight (direct drying or the greenhouse effect) or with dryers.
2.

Oil extraction; coconut oil can be obtained directly by extraction of copra. The traditional way that is widely used by heating the coconut milk. Coconut oil can also be obtained with copra extracted.
3.

Dry grated coconut (desiccated coconut), obtained by drying the grated coconut until 3.5% moisture content and oil content of not less than 68%.
4.

Coconut milk; obtained by exploitation of grated coconut. Coconut milk can not be stored longer. It is therefore necessary packaging to prevent damage to the coconut milk with coconut milk is coconut milk canning or drying.

Until now this has been cultivated and spread widely in the areas of Java. Guava is often referred to as guava, guava siki, or pink stones. Guava is then carried out a cross by cuttings or grafting with other types, so finally getting greater results with fewer seeds circumstances do not even have seeds that are named Guava Bangkok since the occurrence of Bangkok.

Investment Centers

Guava is cultivated in countries such as Japan, Malaysia, Brazil and others. In Indonesia, Java Island is the center of the largest planting of guava fruit, among others, in DKI Jakarta, West Java, Central Java, Yogyakarta Region, and East Java. The other is the production center of Sumatra and Kalimantan. In recent years this has grown guava guava and later appeared in the city of Bangkok are cultured Kleri, Karawang regency, West Java.

Types of Plants

From a number of types of guava, there are several popular varieties of guava are grown by selecting people and its economic value is relatively higher among:

1. Guava breadfruit (seedless guava that grows partenokarpi and when grown close to the guava seed will tend to return).
2. Guava bangkok (large fruit, thick flesh and few seeds, it was a bit bland). After the mixture was held with cashew milk turns sour-sour taste sweet.
3. Guava.
4. Cashew market week.
5. Guava juice.
6. Jmabu apples.
7. Guava Palembang.
8. Guava brittle.

GROWTH CONDITIONS

Climate
Guava cultivation in the wind plays a role in pollination, but strong winds can cause hair loss on the interest.
Guava plants are tropical plants and can be grown in sub-tropical regions with the necessary intensity of rainfall ranges between 1000-2000 mm / year and evenly throughout the year.
Guava plants can flourish and bear fruit with optimum at temperatures around 23-28 degrees C during the day. Lack of sunlight can cause a decrease or less than perfect results (dwarf), the ideal season flowering and fruiting during the dry season is around July-September was the fruit season occurs in November-February along the rainy season.
Surrounding air humidity tends to be low because most grow in the lowlands and moderate. When the air has low humidity, dry air is due to poor water vapor. Such conditions are suitable for the growth of guava plants bij.

Media Plant
Guava plants can actually grow on all soil types.
Guava can grow well on land that is fertile and friable, and contains many elements of nitrogen, organic matter or clay in the soil conditions and a little sand.
The degree of soil acidity (pH) is not too much different from other plants, which is between 4.5 to 8.2 and when pH is less than it needs to be done in advance of calcification.

Altitude Place
Guava can flourish in the tropics with a height between 5-1200 m above sea level.

Orange


1.SEJARAH BRIEF
Of citrus fruit is an annual plant originating from Asia. China is believed to be the first to grow oranges. Since hundreds of years ago, the oranges are grown in Indonesia either naturally or cultivated. Citrus plants in Indonesia is a relic of the Dutch who brought blood oranges and tangerines from America and Italy.

2.JENIS PLANT
Botanical classification of citrus are as follows:

Division: Spermatophyta
Sub Division: Angiospermae
Class: Dicotyledonae
Order: Rutales
Family: Rutaceae
Genus: Citrus
Species: Citrus sp.

Type of local oranges are grown in Indonesia is Keprok orange (Citrus reticulata / nobilis L.), citrus Siem (C. microcarpa L. and C.sinensis. L) consisting of Siem Pontianak, Garut Siem, Siem Lumajang, sweet orange (C. . auranticum C.sinensis L. and L.), citrus / lemon (C. medica), grapefruit (C.maxima Herr.) consisting of orange-Madium Nambangan and Bali. Orange to flavor a dish that consists of lime (C. aurantifolia), grapefruit Purut (C. Hystrix) and citrus sauce (C. hystix ABC).

Introduction of citrus varieties are widely planted varieties Lemon and Grapefruit. While local varieties are orange siem, baby orange, tangerine fields, Bali, and kaffir lime.

3.MANFAAT PLANT



1) The benefits of citrus fruits as fresh food or processed foods, where a high vitamin C content.

2) In Several countries have produced oil from the skin and seeds of citrus, sugar drops, alcohol and pectin from citrus fruit is wasted. Orange peel oil is used to make perfumes, scented soaps, essences for beverages and cake mix.

3) Some types of citrus such as lime is used as traditional medicine for fever, pain the upper airway inflammation and healing the eyes.

4.SENTRA PLANTING

Sentra citrus in Indonesia spread include: Garut (West Java), Tawangmangu (Central Java), Batu (East Java), Tejakula (Bali), Selayar (South Sulawesi), Pontianak (West Kalimantan) and Medan (North Sumatra). Due to a virus attack CVPD (Citrus Vein Phloen Degeneration), a few centers of cultivation decreased production compounded by a system of monopoly trade system which is currently orange no longer valid.

5.SYARAT GROW



5.1.Iklim
1. Wind speed is more than 40-48% will deteriorate the flowers and fruit. For areas of high intensity and wind speed is better windbreak crop rows planted perpendicular to the direction of the wind.

2.Tergantung on the species, citrus requires a 5-6, 6-7 or 9 wet months (rainy season). Wet months are needed for the development of flowers and fruit so that the soil remains moist. In Indonesia, this plant is in great need of adequate water, especially in the month of July to August.

3.Temperatur optimum between 25-30 degrees C, but there are still able to grow normally at 38 degrees C. Oranges Keprok requires temperatures of 20 degrees C.

4.Semua citrus fruits do not like the place protected from sunlight.

5.Kelembaban optimum for plant growth is about 70-80%.

5.2.Media Planting
1. A good soil is sandy loam to clay with clay fraction 7-27%, 25-50% of dust and sand <50%, sufficient topsoil, water system and good air.

2.Jenis andosol and Latosol soil is suitable for citrus cultivation.

3.Derajat soil acidity (soil pH) suitable for citrus cultivation is 5.5 to 6.5 with an optimum pH of 6.

4.Air optimal land is at a depth of 150-200 cm below the soil surface. In the dry season, 150 cm and 50 cm in the rainy season. Citrus plants like salt water containing about 10%.

5.Tanaman oranges grow well in areas with a slope of about 30 °.

5.3.Ketinggian Place
High places where lemon can be cultivated varies from lowlands
to high depending on the species:
1.Jenis Keprok Madura, Keprok Tejakula: 100-900 m above sea level.
2.Jenis Keprok Batu 55, Keprok Garut: 700-1200 m above sea level.

6.Jenis Japan as Kasturi, Kumkuat: 1-1000 m above sea level.
7.Jenis Purut: 100-400 m above sea level.


6.PEDOMAN CULTIVATION



6.1.Pembibitan

1. Seed Requirements
Citrus seedlings are usually planted from vegetative propagation of shoot tip grafting. Good seed is disease-free, similar to its parent (true to type), fertile, stem 2-3 cm in diameter, smooth surface of the stem, root fibers are many, the roots of riding a medium-sized and certified seeds breeding.
2. Seed Preparation
Seeds used for the cultivation of oranges obtained by generative and vegetative.
3. Seeds Seeding Techniques

a) How generative
Seeds extracted from fruits by squeezing the fruit that has been cut. Dried seeds in places that are not exposed for 2-3 days until the mucus is gone.

The area has fertile soil seedbed. Cultivated soil as deep as 30-4 - cm and made from 1.15 to 1.20 m-sized nursery plot stretching from north to south. Map distances from 0.5 to 1 m. Before planting, add manure 1 kg/m2.

Seeds planted in the groove with a spacing of 1 to 1.5 x 2 cm and watered immediately. After planting, seedlings were given a roof. Seeds dipindahtanam into polybags of 15 x 35 cm after 20 cm tall at age 3-5 months. Grown in polybags media is a mixture of manure and chaff (2:1) or manure, rice husks, sand (1:1:1).

b) How vegetative
A common method is to shoot bud grafting and attachment of the eye patch. For both these ways need to be prepared rootstock (onderstam / rootstock) selected from citrus fruits with strong roots and broad, high-power of environmental adaptation, drought resistant, resistant / tolerant to viral diseases, root rot and nematodes. Rootstock varieties commonly used by the Japanese breeder citroen, Rough lemon, Cleopatra, Troyer citrange Citrange and Carizzo.



6.2.Pengolahan Growing Media
Citrus crops grown on dry land rice field / on sloping land. If planted in a hill needs to be made sengkedan / terrace. Land to be ditamani cleared of other plants or plant remains. Spacing varies for each type of citrus can be seen on the following data:

1) Keprok and Siem: spacing of 5 x 5 m
2) Sweet: spacing of 7 x 7 m
3) citron (Citroen): spacing of 6 x 7 m
4) Lime: spacing of 4 x 4 m
5) Grape fruit: spacing of 8 x 8 m
6) Large: spacing (10-12) x (10-12) m


Planting holes are made only on the ground that has not been processed and made 2 weeks prior to the ground. Land inside separated by land from the topsoil (25 cm). Derived from the upper soil layer mixed with 20 kg of manure. After planting the land restored to its original place. Beds (guludan) measuring 1 x 1 x 1 m made only if the oranges grown in paddy soil.

6.3.Teknik Planting
Citrus seedlings can be planted in the rainy season or dry season if the available water for watering, but should be planted early in the rainy season. Before planting, it is necessary:

1) Reduction of excessive leaf and branch.
2) Reduction of the root.
3) The root position not to have folded.

After the seed garden, watering taste and given a mulch of straw, coconut leaves or leaves that are free of disease in the vicinity. Place the mulch in such a way as to not touch the stems to avoid stem rot.
Before crop production and editorial overshadow one another, between good crops can be planted kacang-kacangan/sayuran. Once the canopy cover each other, interrupted plants replaced by grass / legume ground cover plants that also functions as an enhancer of nitrogen for citrus crops.

6.4.Pemeliharaan Plants

1. Stitching
Performed on plants that do not grow.
2. Weeding
Weeds are cleaned in accordance with the frequency of its growth, at the time of fertilization also done weeding.
3. Pembubunan
If planted on sloping land, to consider whether there is ground around the roots eroded. The addition of soil needs to be done if the base of the roots have started to appear.
4. Pruning
Pruning aims to form a canopy of trees and remove diseased branches, dry and unproductive / unwanted. Of the shoots that grow let it 3-4 early shoots at uniform distances that would later form the canopy of trees. In subsequent growth, each branch has a 3-4 clipping twigs or kelipatannya.Bekas wound was closed with a fungicide or wax to prevent the disease. We recommend that you first dip the pruning shears into Klorox / alcohol. Diseased twigs burned or buried in soil.
5. Fertilization
Giving the type and dose of fertilizer (g / plant) after planting are as follows:

a) 1 month: Urea = 100; ZA = 200; TSP = 25; ZK = 100; Dolomite = 20; P.kandang = 20 kg / tan.
b) 2 months: Urea = 200; ZA = 400; TSP = 50; ZK = 200; Dolomite = 40; P.kandang = 40 kg / tan.
c) 3 months: Urea = 300; ZA = 600; TSP = 75; ZK = 300; Dolomite = 60; P.kandang = 60 kg / tan.
d) 4 months: Urea = 400; ZA = 800; TSP = 100; ZK = 400; Dolomite = 80; P.kandang = 80 kg / tan.
e) 5 months: Urea = 500; ZA = 1000; TSP = 125; ZK = 500; Dolomite = 100; P.kandang = 100 kg / tan.
f) 6 months: Urea = 600; ZA = 1200; TSP = 150; ZK = 600; Dolomite = 120; P.kandang = 120 kg / tan.
g) 7 months: Urea = 700; ZA = 1400; TSP = 175; ZK = 700; Dolomite = 140; P.kandang = 140 kg / tan.;
h) 8 months: Urea = 800; ZA = 1600; TSP = 200; ZK = 800; Dolomite = 160; P.kandang = 160 kg / tan.
i)> 8 months: Urea> 1000; ZA = 2000; TSP = 200; ZK = 800; Dolomite = 200; P.kandang = 200 kg / tan.

1.
2. Irrigation and Watering
Watering should not inundate the root stem. Plants are watered at least once a week during the dry season. If less water is available, the soil around the plant closed digemburkan and mulch.
3. Fruit thinning
In the year in which the fruitful orange trees, thinning should be done so that the tree is able to support growth and weight of fruit and fruit quality maintained. Discarded fruit includes fruit illness, which is not exposed to sunlight (in the shade of the leaves) and excess fruit in a single stalk. Eliminate fruit at the end of the main stem of the fruit in one there and leave only 2-3 pieces.

Viruses that attack are: (1) Potato Leaf Roll Virus (PLRV) causes leaf curl, (2) Potato virus X (PVX) causes latent mosaic on leaves, (3) Potato Virus Y (PVY) causes mosaic or local necrosis; ( 4) Potato Virus A (PVA) causes mosaic software, (5) Potato virus M (PVM) causes mosaic rolled, (6) Potato Virus S (PVS) causing mosaic limp. Symptoms: in the attack, plants grow stunted, straight and pale with kecil-kecil/tidak tuber yield at all; leaf yellowing and tissue death. The spread of viruses carried by farm equipment, aphids Aphis spiraecola, A. gossypii and Myzus persicae, and Coccinella Epilachna beetles and nematodes. Control: no pesticides to control the virus, prevention and control is done by planting virus-free seeds, cleaning equipment, cut and burn diseased plants, vector control with PESTONA or BVR and do crop rotation.

Note: If the pest and disease control by using natural pesticides can not cope with the recommended use of chemical pesticides. In order for the spraying of chemical pesticides is more evenly distributed and not easily lost by rainwater add Adhesives Straighten AERO 810, dose + 5 ml (1 / 2 cap) / tank.
