With so much opportunity in agricultural wastes which many people in Lanao del Sur consider as nuisance, a lot of productive things can be done with these so-called wastes. This study was conducted to utilize wastes such as those from the rice environment and mushroom spent as sources of organic fertilizer to compare the growth and yield performance of sweet corn that also uses inorganic fertilizer. The experiment was conducted at the research area of the Plant Science Department, College of Agriculture, Mindanao State University, Marawi City from August 1 to December 30, 2013.
Results showed that among the fertilizer sources, rice hull ash performs better in terms of number of days to tasseling, length of corn ears (cm), total corn ears, diameter of corn ears (cm), marketable corn ears, and biomass (kg) which are considered as big attributes to yield factor. However, mushroom spent would perform better in corn morphology like height. Inorganic fertilizer showed only an advantage to number of days to silking.
