PENGGUNAAN BERBAGAI KOMPOS KOTORAN TERNAK TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN Pennisetum purpureum cv. Pakchong

Manure derived from cattle, chickens, and goats can be used as compost has different nutrient content. The application of manure improve soil’s physical, chemical, biological properties thus increase plant growth productivity. purpose this study was to determine the effect various (cow, chicken, goat) on elephant grass cv Pakchong (Pennisetum purpureum cv. Pakchong). design a completely randomized with 4 treatments 5 replications. treatment is fertilizing using compost, namely P0= without P1=cow P2=chicken P3=goat compost. observed variables were height, number leaves tiller, dry weight stem shoots roots. results showed that use had significant (P<0.05) increasing Pakchong. Chicken produces best which seen leaves, stems, shoots.
