Description
Penelitian bertujuan mempelajari interaksi sinergis tanaman tomat dan cabai dalam sistem pertanaman tumpangsari di dataran tinggi. Kegiatan penelitian dilaksanakan di rumah kaca dan lapangan, di Kebun Percobaan Balai Penelitian Tanaman Sayuran, mulai bulai Mei sampai dengan Desember 2000. Perlakuan percobaan terdiri atas delapan macam perlakuan tanam tumpangsari, termasuk pertanaman monokrop sebagai pembandingnya. Percobaan rumah kaca menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap dengan dua ulangan, sedangkan di lapangan menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok dengan tiga ulangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa (a) interaksi sinergis tanaman terjadi pada tumpangsari tanaman tomat dan cabai terhadap komponen pertumbuhan tinggi (7 minggu), perkembangan luas daun, bobot kering tanaman pada fase pertumbuhan maksimum, serapan total NPK, dan komponen hasil buah tomat dan cabai (buah sehat dan rusak), (b) efek sinergis tanaman nyata terjadi searah dari tanaman cabai terhadap setiap parameter tanaman tomat; dan (c) sistem interaksi sinergis tanaman tumpangsari di dataran tinggi dipengaruhi cara pengelolaan tanaman di lapangan. Selanjutnya pengaruh interaksi dua arah dari tanaman tumpangsari sayuran di dataran tinggi perlu diteliti lebih lanjut.

A series of experiment were conducted at screen house and experi- mental garden of Research Institute for Vegetable, starting from May to December 2000. Treatments consisted of eight kinds of intercropping systems including monocrop as its control treatment. A screen house experiment used a randomized complete design with two replications, while the randomized block design with three replications was ap- plied in the field experiment. The results showed that (a) the positive plant interaction occurred on tomato and hot pep- per intercropping as shown at growth component of plant height (7 weeks), leaf area, dry weight of crop at maximum growth stage, total uptake of NPK, and the yield components of tomato and hot pepper fruits (healthy fruit and damage fruit), (b) synergism affect of plants significantly occurred directly from hot pepper plant on tomato crop, and (c) the plant interaction system of tomato and hot pepper intercropping in the highland were closely related to cropping man- agement in field. Further study are needed to explore more information deeply in two ways interaction affects of crop- ping sytem on vegetables farming in the highland.
