Plant growth is strongly influenced by the availability of nutrients in the soil. One factor that influences the availability of nutrients in the soil is the availability of soil organic matter. Soil nutrient content such as C-organic, available nutrients, and soil microorganism diversity are indicators of soil fertility. This research was arranged using a completely randomized design. Data were collected directly in the field and also observations in the laboratory. This study aimed to determine the response of pepper plant growth to the vegetative phase with the application of compost-biochar-mycorrhizae. This study indicates that the best response is shown in the combination application treatment of compost, biochar with mycorrhizal fungi.
