Abstract:
South Kalimantan has good potential for developing edamame soybean cultivation due to its high demand and
limited availability. Furthermore, the harvest waste can be reused as an alternative to fertilizer in the following
season. Hence, no cultivation waste is lost. The addition of manure is believed to increase the nutrient
availability for plants in acid dry land, thereby affecting soybean production. Therefore, this study aims to
determine the potential effect of edamame harvest waste (LPE) and livestock manure on its cultivation. LPE was
nested in livestock manure using a Nested Factorial Randomized Block Design. The treatment level of the first
factor was chicken, cow, and goat manure, while the second factor was 0%, 25%, 50%, and 75% LPE. The results
showed that LPE combined with livestock manure affected plant development; 50% LPE treatment combined
with 50% goat manure yielded a better developmental response compared to other treatments. Based on the
results, LPE and livestock manure have the potential to increase plant production
