Abstract
The continuous use of chemical fertilizers contributes to gas emissions that cause global warming, climate change and low nutrient use efficiency. Compost is an effort to increase nutrient supply to improve soil quality and nutrient efficiency in food crops. The aim of the study was to examine the role of corn cob compost on soybean growth and yield. The study used a complete randomized block design with one factor, namely the dose of corn cob compost with six levels, namely chemical fertilizer 0.225 ton/ha, corn cob compost dose 2; 3; 4;5; 6 tonnes/ha. The dose of compost affects the root biomass. Corn cob compost 5 tons/ha was able to increase soybean yields by 2.28 tons and was not significantly different from chemical fertilizers. Corn cob compost 5 tons/ha produced the highest weight of 100 seeds, namely 41.33 g. Soybean yields were positively correlated with root biomass, number of leaves and crown biomass. Compost from corn cobs is an organic nutrient that can promote soybean growth and yield.
