Abstract
Using organic fertilizer is an effective way of producing chemical free food that sustain the health of the soil, ecosystem and people. Hence, this study was conducted to determine the best kinds of organic fertilizer on the growth and yield of glutinous corn. The Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) in three blocks was employed.
Result of the study revealed that application of organic fertilizer (50% RR + cattle manure, 50% RR + Coco coir dust and 50% RR +Vermicompost) significantly influenced the growth and yield of glutinouscorn. Applied with 50% RR +cattle manure obtained the highest yield but performed comparably with corn applied with 50% RR +coco coir dust, 50% RR + vermicompost, 100% RR in terms of plant. Corn that were not fertilized produced the lowest yield.ear size, and plant height.
