A study has been carried out with the aim to evaluate the growth and yield of Pennisetum purpureum CV Mott given OLF. The experiment used a completely randomized design with 2 factors and 4 replications: factor A (OLF dose): P2 (1 liter of OLF: 2 liters of water), P4 (1 liter of OLF: 4 liters of water), P6 (1 liter of OLF: 6 liters of water) and P8 (1 liter of OLF: 8 liters of water), and factor B which is the frequency application of OLF consisting of W2 (OLF given 2 days), W4 (OLF given 4 days) and W6 (OLF given 6 days once). The results showed that height increase and highest number of tillers of 10.22 cm week-1 and 10.54 week-1 tiller were obtained at the dose of P2, with frequency of W2 gave. The best frequency application of OLF was obtained at twice daily (W2) OLF of 956.25 and 139.81 g pot-1 respectively for fresh weight and dry weight of forage results. The highest protein content and forage fiber were 9.18% and 24.87%, respectively, obtained by gave a dose of P2, while the frequency of OLF giving every two days gave the highest crude fiber content of 24, 05%. It can be concluded that: growth, forage yield, and forage nutrient content of Pennisetum purpureum CV Mott is influenced by the dosage and frequency application of OLF, and the best OLF dose for Pennisetum plants CV Mott purpureum is P2 with the frequency of giving W2.
