The research took time four months, starting from February to May 2019 and the experiment, which consisted of four treatments and arranged using a completely randomized block design (RBD) of organic fertilizer, consisted of Cow manure, Goat manure, Chicken manure, and Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunches (OPEFB) compost. The observed parameters were plant height (cm), number of leaves (strands), fresh weight per plant (g), plant weight for consumption per plant (g), and root volume (ml). The observational data were analysed using the Statistical Analysis System (SAS) program. The results showed that the OPEFB compost treatment provided the best for the growth and yield of baby kailan. OPEFB compost gave the best results for all parameters.
