Insight into the Impact of Salinity Stress on Upland Rice and Plant Height Characteristics

Vitri Renny Triyanti

Abstract


The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of salinity stress on upland rice and plant height characteristics. This research was conducted on farmer's land in Medan Selayang, Medan City. This study used a randomized block design with 2 factors in 3 replications. The first factor was the upland rice variety (P1= Sigambiri Merah; P2= Inpago-8; P3= Sigambiri Putih; P4= Ramos) and the second factor was the dose of salinity (0, 4, 8, 12 dS/m). Parameters were analyzed using ANOVA and the mean was further tested with 5% DMRT. The results show thatupland rice varieties inpago-8, white sigambiri, and ramos had plant height growth that was significantly different from the red sigambiri variety at the end of the observation (12 WAP). The highest growth was found in the white sigambiri variety of 148.48 cm. Other results also show that giving a salinity dose of 4-12 dS/m caninhibited the height growth of upland rice plants at the age of 8 WAP.
