Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the plant growth performance of top grafted young cacao cultivated in various elevations. This research was conducted from January-August 2019 in South Sulawesi and Central Sulawesi. A total of 54 plants were taken randomly from 6 locations with 3 altitudes (<300, 300-600, >600 meter above sea level, as.). The results showed that there was not significant different of plant height, stem circle, crown circle, the number of primary branches, the number of flowers, the length of horizontal and vertical roots in response to different elevations. However, the height of primary stem and leaves number of cacao from <300 m asl was significantly greater than those from either 300-600 m asl or > 600 m asl. The largest crown portion of actual biomass was found in the branches, then followed by the leaves and stem. While the highest actual root biomass was found at 10-20 cm soil depth.

Abstract

North Luwu Regency is the leading cocoa-producing area in South Sulawesi. Cocoa development in North Luwu continues to be developed to increase production. One of the determining factors for the success of cocoa development, namely support for the availability of superior and quality planting materials. Therefore, it is necessary to continue developing and exploring clones in the field to obtain parents as cross material for developing new clones. This study aimed to determine the agro morphological characteristics of cocoa plants in several central villages in North Luwu Regency. The research was conducted in six cocoa-producing districts in North Luwu, namely Masamba, Baebunta, South Baebunta, Sabbang, Mappedeceng and Malangke, from July to November 2022. Observations were made using 27 agro morphological characters on 16 exposed cocoa clones. The results of the study showed high differences in character. These clones were grouped into two major groups, and the character of the fruit (fruit circumference) and seed (bean length) became the distinguishing characteristics of the cocoa clonesresulting from exploration in North Luwu.
