This research was aimed to determine the influence of liquid extract organic fertilizer of centrosema (Centrosema pubescens) leaf sheats on the growth and biomass pruduction of elephantgrass (Pennisetum purpureum). This research used complete random sampling method with five treatments and three replications by using polybag as planting media. The treatments conducted were P0 (0 ml liquid feltilizer/plant), P1 (10 ml liquid feltilizer/plant), P2 (20 ml liquid feltilizer/plant), P3 (30 ml liquid feltilizer/plant), P4 (40 ml liquid feltilizer/plant). The parameters observed were the growth of plant height, tiller number, fresh biomass production and leaf blade percentage of elephantgrass. The results showed that the treatments were significantly affected on plant height, tiller number, fresh biomass production and leaf blade percentage of elephantgrass. Each treatment obtained best results such as in plant height was reached at P3 (135 cm), tiller number and fresh biomass productions were reached at P4 (8,33 plants and 291,67 gr) and leaf blade percentage was reached at P1 (55,31%). Key words: Centrosema leaf sheath, growth, biomass pruduction, elephantgrass
