چکیده

Anthurium production has an important contribution to the floriculture or cut flower industry. The integration of organic and inorganic nutrient sources is the best cultivation management for anthurium.  The study was conducted to assess the effect of organic manures and inorganic fertilizers as exogenous sources of nutrients on the performance of anthurium. The study was two factor experiment laid out in a 3 × 3 adopting a randomized complete block design (RCBD). Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). Treatment means comparison was done using tukey's significant difference test (HSD). The different factors were as follows: M₁: Coconut husk, M₂: Coconut husk with chicken dung and M₃: Coconut husk with cattle manure for factor A, and F₀: No inorganic fertilizer, F₁: 90-60-60 (NPK) and F₂: 45-30-30 (NPK) for factor B. The results revealed that the chicken and cattle manures as part of the growing media significantly improve the growth of anthurium regardless of the amount of inorganic fertilizer applied. The net income as well as the return on cash expense were negative from all treatments.
