Shallot (Allium cepa var. aggregatum) is one of the important horticultural commodities and is widely cultivated in Indonesia. Shallot is classified as a vegetable commodity with high economic value, as indicated by its contribution to fulfilling national consumption, serving as a source of farmers' income, and its potential as a foreign exchange-generating commodity for the country. Plant Growth Regulators (PGRs) are compounds applied to plants as supplementary substances to enhance the process of cell division, making it more active. The roles of BAP and kinetin plant growth regulators need to be studied to determine the effects of these two PGRs on the growth and yield of shallots. This study aimed to determine the most optimal type of plant growth regulator for the growth and yield of shallots and to evaluate the effects of BAP and kinetin application on the growth and yield of shallots.
