POLA SEBARAN SISTEM IRIGASI CURAH DENGAN BERBAGAI JUMLAH PIPA PADA PEMBIBITAN KELAPA SAWIT (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.)
This research aims to determine the distribution pattern of bulk irrigation systems with various numbers of pipes in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) nurseries. This research was carried out at the Land and Soil and Water Engineering Laboratory, Agricultural Technology Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Sriwijaya University, Indralaya. The research implementation time was carried out in February - April 2024. Based on the research results that were obtained, there were various distribution patterns influenced by the number of pipes; The greater the number of pipes, the more diverse the pattern of water that is poured out. Smaller water droplets also cause the flow of water to be more easily dispersed or broken up due to shearing or splashing in the air, so that the air is not distributed evenly in each polybag of plants, resulting in lower irrigation efficiency. Soil water content measurements are not constant. The highest value for soil water content occurred in the 8th week, reaching 81%. The lowest value is for soil water content, reaching 56%. The highest soil permeability value was 3.44 cm/hour. The increase in plant water availability has increased, namely reaching 9.52 mm/day, while the lowest value has reached 0.95 mm/day. The results of measuring plant production are that each treatment has a very significant effect on the growth of oil palm plants (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.)
