Abstract


The deficiency of productive agricultural land was an obstacle in the development of edamame cultivation. The utilization of suboptimal land, especially acid dry land, is a solution for the development of edamame cultivation. South Kalimantan has acid dry land covering an area of ​​87.61% of the total dry land. Edamame plant morphology is the basis for studying plant growth and productivity whom determined by the availability of nutrients in the soil. The object of this study was to evaluate the morphological performance of edamame grown in acid dry land with the addition of different types of animal manure. The selected treatments in this study were 3 types of organic fertilizers: chicken, goat, and cow manure with a dose of 10 t ha-1. Each treatment possessed 3 replications thereby this study obtained 9 units of experiment. The height of edamame plants fed with goat manure showed the highest performance compared to chicken and cow manure. Edamame leaves applied goat manure had wider leaf area, and more number of leaves, followed by chicken and cow manure, while the number and size of edamame filled pods in goat manure treatment had more filled pods than cow and chicken manure.
