    Abstract


    This study aimed to investigate the effects of eggshell powder application on the growth and physiology of robusta coffee cv. TR4 under drought stress. The experiment was a completely random designed with six rates of eggshell powder application including (A0, A1, A2, A3, A4, A5 corresponding to 0, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500kg eggshell powder ha-1) and lime application (A6) at 500kg ha-1 under the normal watering condition and drought stress condition. The result showed that drought stress condition significantly reduced growth parameters of the robusta coffee cv. TR4 such as fresh weight of roots, stems, leaves and physiological parameters such as photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, transpiration rate, intercellular CO2 concentration, Fv/m, the relative water content in leaves while relative ion leakage increased. Applying eggshell powder and lime increased growth and physiological parameters under both normal watering condition and drought stress condition. Higher growth and physiological parameters and lower percentage reduction of fresh weight of roots, stems, and leaves were observed in the application rate of 300kg eggshell powder ha-1.
