Abstract
The objectives of the study were to investigate the effect of combination of compost and urea fertilizer, the level of
leaf defoliation under cobs and their interaction with corn and peanut production, to examine the effect of combining
corn waste and peanut waste on feed consumption, weight gain and beef cattle ration conversion and feasibility of
integrated farming system between beef cattle with corn and peanut crops. This study was conducted for 8 months
using Separate Plot Design with a leaf defoliation treatment under the cob as the main plot and the combination of
fertilizer as a plot for the first stage and Randomized Design complete with ration mixture treatment of corn and
peanut waste for the second phase trial. The results showed that the combination of fertilization yielded relatively
equal production of maize and different peanuts while defoliation of 50% of the leaves under the cob and its
interaction could increase the production of corn and peanuts, the combination of maize and peanut (50%: 50%)
showed a better response to feed intake, weight gain and beef cattle rations conversion and was a viable farming
commodity cultivated in an integrated farming system.
