Frequency determination of pulsed drip irrigation for shallot (Allium ascalonium L.) cultivation on post sand mining land is needed to ensure shallot cultivation activities are not hampered by inefficient irrigation due to the quality of soil caused by mining activities. This study aims to analyze the effect of watering frequency with pulsed drip irrigation on growth, yield, and Water Use Efficiency (WUE) in shallot plants. The research was conducted at the screenhouse office of PT Habibi Digital Nusantara (Habibi Garden) from October 2020 to January 2021. The research design used was CRD (Completely Randomized Design) with 4 treatments and 5 replications: P1 (watering once a day 100%ETcrop without a break/continuous); P2 (2 times a day pulses each at 50% ETcrop); P3 (4 times a day pulses each at 25% ETcrop), and P4 (8 times a day pulses each at 12.5% ETcrop). The interval between waterings is 30 minutes. The results were analyzed by using One-Way ANOVA test (?=0,05). The results showed that pulsed drip irrigation treatment for shallot cultivation on post sand mining land had no significant effect on growth parameters (plant height, number of leaves, number of tillers), production parameters (number of bulbs, total fresh weight, total dry weight, total dry bulbs weight, average bulb dry weight, Harvest Index), and Water Use Efficiency (WUE).
