Abstract

The research aim is to know the influence of liquid fertilizer that comes from the waste of dairy farms for soil quality and vegetative growth of coffee plants. There are three kinds of fertilization intensity (treatment) that is without fertilization (K), one-times fertilization (C1) and two-times fertilization (C2). The research results were analyzed using Group Randomized Design as experimental design; ANOVA and Tukey Test 5% as analysis method. The results showed that the treatment affects soil quality. The treatment also gives a significant influence (p < 0.05) at the height rate of coffee plants in the 2nd week and the canopy diameter rate of coffee plant in the 2nd and 4th week. The results of this research are expected to provide input especially for cattle farmers and coffee planters who want to integrate their livestock and their crops.
