<![CDATA[Soybean is an important food crop commodity that serves as a source of plant-based protein due to its high nutritional value, safety for consumption, and relatively affordable price compared to other protein sources. In addition to being a food source, soybean also plays an important role in the supply of animal feed and industrial raw materials, making it one of the leading commodities in agricultural development in Indonesia. This study aimed to determine the effect of several types of organic fertilizers on the vegetative growth characteristics of Anjasmoro soybean (Glycine max L. Merril). The experiment was conducted using a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) consisting of six treatments and four replications, including coffee husk compost, green manure, cattle manure, and several combinations of these organic fertilizers. The data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) at the 5% significance level, followed by Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at the 5% significance level. The results showed that the application of different types of organic fertilizers significantly affected plant height, number of leaves, stem diameter, number of productive branches, leaf area, and fresh root weight. Treatment D produced the best results for plant height (50.17 cm) and number of leaves (14.10 leaves), treatment B resulted in the largest stem diameter (8.50 mm), while treatment F produced the best results for the number of productive branches (6.90 branches), leaf area (146.67 cm²), and fresh root weight (25.82 g).]]>
