EVALUATING BIOPORE TECHNOLOGY FOR SUSTAINING COFFEE YIELD AND GROWTH DURING EL NIÑO EVENTS IN SOUTH SUMATRA, INDONESIA

. In order to mitigate the impact of El Niño on declining crop yields, local water management is necessary. The present study aimed to elucidate the impact of biopore application during the rainy season on the growth and yield of coffee plants in the dry season, which coincided with El Niño . In the context of ff coffee crops in Semendo, South Sumatra, the generative phase of the crop's development was characterised by the onset of flower production in April. The ripening of cherries occurred in July, while beans reached full maturity in August. A substantial discrepancy was observed in each of the variables, namely the leaf greenness index, the number of leaves, the number of flowers, and the number of seeds, following treatment. Biopore application showed to increase leaf water content by 1-2%, primary branch length by 3-18%, primary branch diameter by 1-8%, the number of plagiotropic branches by 53-62%, the number of flower clusters by 10-30%, the number of fruit clusters by 38-58%, and the number of fruits by 20-60%. The percentage of normal beans and the weight of the beans increased significantly along with the number of biopore holes.
