Abstract

Waxy maize is a source of local food for the community so that it can achieve food security, but its availability is still low. In addition, the cultivation of waxy maize so far still relies on inorganic fertilizers that have the potential to endanger public health. The purpose of this study was to analyze the growth and production of waxy maize, as well as to determine the effectiveness of agronomy and economy by applying organic fertilizer in Bualo Village, Boalemo Regency. The data obtained were designed in a randomized block design consisting of 11 treatments and 3 replications, so there were 33 experimental units. The results showed that the application of organic fertilizer of as much as 2,000 kg.ha–1 was able to increase the growth and production of the best waxy maize. Organic fertilizers, both agronomic and economical were classified as effective in increasing waxy maize production.
