The result showed that the treatments gave no significant effect to all parameters being observed. The treatment of organic fertilizer with 20 ton ha-1 tended to give the highest result on leaf chlorophyll, cob weight, number of seed per row, seed weight per plant, weight of 100 seeds and plant dry weight . Based on analysis, the highest increase of C-organic was found on 15 ton ha-1 fertilizer application which was 3,17% and the lowest was found on 5 ton ha-1 which was 2,97%.
