Abstract
Abstract The ddevelopment of an efficient technique for vegetative propagation would be a benefit for the nursery industry for the production of some clones with desirable characters. This study was conducted to develop a vegetative propagation protocol of Moringa oleifera using some different sizes of cutting started from April to July 2017. The factorial experiment was used, in which the first factor was stem cutting length (25cm, 50 cm, and 75 cm), and the second one was stem cutting diameter (3.0-4.0 cm, 4.1-5.0 cm, and 5.1-6.0 cm). This experiment was designed using Completely Randomized Design with five replications, and each replication contained10 seedlings. The results show that the seedling growth was affected by stem cut diameter and length alone during three months nursery period. To produce more valuable seedlings, the vegetative propagation using stem cutting ranging should use 50-75 cm in length and/or 3.0-6.0 cm in diameter.
