Brassica juncea commonly known as mustard or Chinese mustard is a mustard family
and it is rich in vitamin A, B, C, E and K. Demand for this vegetable increased due to
increase of population. To fulfill the demand, production of this vegetable should be
increased. Application of organic fertilizer is one way to increase the yield of brassica
other than inorganic fertilizer such as NPK. This study will be conducted to determine
the effect of Effective microorganisms (EM) compared to NPK fertilizer in terms of
growth and yield of Chinese mustard. This study will be applied four different rates of
EM which is 0, 10, 20, and 30 ml and NPK 15:15:15 with rates of 0, 10, 20, and 30 g.
This study is expected to show the different effect of growth and yield of Chines
mustard when applied with different fertilizer and the best fertilizer will be determine.
