“…The development of beef cattle breeding in North Sumatra for the past five years has experienced a rapid increase in population with an average annual population increase of 10.37%. The number of the beef cattle population in 2014 was 646,749 tails [27]. Production of solid waste (dirt) of an adult cattle is 4,000 kg/ year/head and liquid waste (urine) 1000 liters/ year/head, so it is very potential to be used as a primary material for making organic fertilizer.…”

The purpose of this study was to determine liquid palm oil mill waste (LPKS) combined with cattle waste (LTS) on the growth and yield of sweet corn plants. The field trial was conducted in Complete Randomized Block Design (CRBD) with three replication and two factors. Whereas, first factor was used palm oil mill waste (LPKS) mixing with cattle waste (LTS) at 2 levels namely: P1 (Solid: Solid), P2 (Liquid: Liquid) and the second factor was used the combined of LPKS and LTS in percentage (%) which consists of 5 various namely; C1 (100: 0), C2 (70: 30), C3 (50: 50), C4 (30: 70) and C5 (0: 100). Land with 125 meters square was divided 30 subplots into three replications which 1.25 m x 1.5 m every subplot. The corn crops were planted direct system in the hole with two seeds. The plot was given basic fertilizer with Urea (150 kg/ha), TSP (100 kg/ha) and KCl (100 kg/ha). Application of fertilizers was conducted one week after planting. Parameters were measured plant height, yield component (cob diameter) and yield. Data were analyzed using ANOVA if the founded significant was continued with DMRT at p < 0.05. The results showed that there was a significant effect for all parameters measured; plant height, yield component (cob diameter) and yield. The first factor was shown that P1 its’ better than P2. The same result with the second factor was the significant difference among various treatment with C1 was better as compared among them, respectively. Unlike interaction of two factors, there was unsignificantly in p > 0.05 at DMRT. In this study, our suggested that the application of P1 (solid: solid) and C1 (100:0) can be used the application in sweet corn to increase the yield increase the yield.
