Abstract: VECINA JR, FREDELINO E. Efficacy of Liquid Seaweed Extract as Biostimulant on the Performance of Chinese Kale (Brassica oleracea var. alboglabra). Undergrailmte Thesis. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture (Major in Crop Science). Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. January 2018. Adviser: Dr. Adolfo C. Manuel Jr. This study was conducted at the Central Experiment Station of Cavite State University, Indang Cavite. It aimed to evaluate the growth and yield performance of Chinese kale treated with different concentrations of liquid seaweed extract applied by spraying and soil drenching. Specifically, this study aimed to (1) assess the NPK and pH contents of the fermented liquid seaweed extract, (2) determine the efficacy of different concentrations of liquid seaweed extract on plant height, number of leaves per plant, length and width of the leaves and length of root growth and weight of the harvest; and (3) evaluate the bio stimulant effect on growth and nutrient uptake of Chinese kale through plant tissue analysis. The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatments including the control and was replicated three times. Statistical analysis revealed that highly significant effect of seaweed extract application was observed in terms of plant weight at 30, 45 and 60 days after transplanting, — plant height and length of root growth at 45 and 60 DAT. Width of the leaves were significantly different at 30 and 45 days after transplanting. For nutrient uptake, T2 ( 1 0 ml liter water : 1 liter of water) had the highest N, P, and K content compared to other treatments based on plant tissue analysis. However, different concentrations of liquid seaweed extract did not significantly affect the length and number of leaves at 30, 45 and 60 days after transplanting.
