Effect of organic matter of chicken manure with bioactivator application of microbial rhizosphere inoculant to growth and yield of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merill)

Abstract

This research was aimed to know effect of organic matter of chicken manure with bioactivator application of microbial rhizosphere inoculant to growth and yield of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merril). The research was conducted from February 2017 to Mei 2017, located at Panimbang District, Pandeglang Regency, Banten Province, Indonesia. This study used a randomized completely block design one factor that is giving of chicken manure matter with IMR bioactivator application consists of six levels. Thus, there are six treatments and each treatment was replicated four times as a group, so there are 24 experimental units. The results showed that the application of organic waste of chicken manure along with bioactivator application gave a significant effect on the number of leaves of soybean plant age of 5 week after planted and no significant effect on soybean plant height aged 5 and 6 week after planted, leaf number 6 week after planted, number of root nodule, number of pods of contents, number of empty pods, dry weight of seeds per plant, weight of 100 seeds, seed weight per plot and seed yield per hectare.
