Abstract
Curly red chili (Capsicum annuum L.) is widely cultivated using inorganic fertilizers which causes high production cost. Chili is value because of the level of spiciness. The level of spiciness of chili is determined by the level of capsaicin which is affected by nutrients in the growing media. Bio fertilizer and sludge biogas which is one of the organic fertilizer containing microbes and organic material that are able to support nutrien of the medium. This study aimed to measure capsaicin level and analyze the anatomy response of fruits in curly red chili which given by bio fertilizer and sludge biogas in various dosage. The study design used RCBD, the data analyzed by ANOVA at 95% confidence level. The highest capsaicin level were obtain on curly red chili which were given sludge biogas 36 mL + bio fertilizer 10 L /ha. The combination treatment of sludge biogas and bio fertilizer give the highest anatomical response ie thickness of leaves, thickness of parenchyme palisade, diameter of stele, siameter of metaxylem and thickness of pericarp.
