The use of compost as an ameliorant has been shown to improve soil quality and increase crop yields. One of the organic materials that can be used as compost is coffee husk. Besides being able to increase the quality and yield of the plant, the rest of the coffee husk will also pollute the environment if it is not utilized. The aims of this study were to evaluate the effect of coffee husk compost application on Inceptisol and peanut yield. The field experiment was done on an Inceptisol, from March to December 2020. The experiment used a randomized block design with 6 treatments of coffee husk compost with various doses and 4 replications, namely without compost, 10 Mgha -1 , 15 Mgha -1 , 20 Mgha -1 , 25 Mgha -1 , and 30 Mgha -1 . The results showed that the application of 20 Mgha -1 coffee husk compost was the best treatment in optimizing decreasing soil compaction, bulk density, and increasing porosity, while 15 Mgha -1 coffee husk compost was the best treatment in increasing peanut yield.
