ABSTRACT
An experiment about the effect of buds pruning and plant spacing on yield of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) Kopek variety, had been carried out from 14 January 1996 until 1 May 1996 at Kedungsari, North of Magelang sub dis- trict, Central Java. The elevation is about 380 meter above sea level. The soil is latosol, the pH is 6,4.
The method is factorial (3 x 3) experiment with Rando- mized Completely Block Design (RCBD), consisting three re- plications. The first factor is buds pruning consisting of without pruning, plant with two main branches and plant with one main branch. The second factor is plant spacing consisting of 60 cm x 60 cm, 60 cm x 70 cm and 60 cm x 80 cm.
The result of the experiment shows that treatment of pruning effects very significant on height of plant, number of leaves, number of flowers, number of fruits, weight of fruits, volume of fruits but non significant to fruit set. The treatment of plant spacing effects very significant on height of plant, number of flowers, weight of fruits, and effects significant on volume of fruit, but non significant on fruit set and number of fruits. No interaction between the branch pruning and plant spacing on all parameters.
