Abstract

The availability of marginal land that is still wide is an opportunity to be exploited. Forest Management Resort in Gunung Kidul is one of the dry lands that can be used for maize cultivation based on Kayu Putih Agroforestry. Biochar as a soil enhancer and organic fertilizer can increase soil fertility in marginal lands. The study aims to obtain the best effect of organic fertilizer and biochar on maize growth. The study was conducted in Playen using 2-factor CRBD. The first factor is the type of biochar (control, rice husk, and coconut shell biochar) and the second factor is the type of organic fertilizer (control, organic cow, organic goat, and organic chicken). Treatment was repeated 3 times. The data obtained were analyzed by Annova and continued with the DMRT. The results showed that coconut shell biochar gave the highest yield on plant height, stem diameter, and several leaves at 7 WAP. Rice husk gave the best yield on leaf area and dry weight at 3 WAP. Chicken organic gave the highest yield on plant height, stem diameter, and several leaves at 7 WAP. Cow organic showed the best leaf area and dry weight at 3 WAP.
