Abstract

The goal of this research is to get information about variety of sweet potato which have the highest production level and kind of fertilizer which give higher production level than 3 other examined varieties. The research was conducted in rainy season year 2005/2006 in Nayan village, Maguwoharjo, Depok, Sleman, DIY, using 3 kinds of  sweet potatoes: Boko, Sari, and Kalasan and using 4 kinds of fertilizer: organic matter formed from chicken feces, compost, and green fertilizer, also using manufacturer fertilizer mixed from N (Urea), P (SP36), and K(KCl).

The result of this research was the variety of Boko gave better growth in the amount of branch (19.50) and the lenght of' main bronch (178.63 cm), also gave the highest tuber produced ha^-1 (13.12 ton). Organic fertilizer (chicken feces) gave the best result with 10 ton ha^-1 doses, for the entire important parameters crop growth and the yield product observed, whereas on the supporting parameters, they generally gave of the same.
