Abstract
This research aimed to determine the effect of FMA and bisozyme on production, dry yield and revenue cost ratio of elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum cv. Taiwan) on ultisol soil for first harvesting. This research was conducted with randomized group design, 4 groups and 5 variables. The groups were P0 (Manure + Fertilizer N, P, and K), P1 (Bisozyme), P2 (FMA), P3 (Bisozyme + FMA), P4 (FMA + Fertilizer N, P, and K + Bisozyme). The variables are yield, dry production and revenue cost ratio. The result of statistical analysis showed that treatment was not significant (P<0.05) to yield, while for dry production and revenue cost treatment ratio showed very different significantly P>0.05). The yield of elephant grass ranged from 46,70 until 60,51 ton/ha, while the dry production ranged from 13,54 until 20,76 ton/ha. Also the revenue cost treatment ranged from 1,27 until 4,35, respectively. From this result it is could be concluded that Bisozyme + FMA can be used as a substitute for manure and fertilizer N, P and K.
