The results obtained from the different levels of chicken manure combined with fixed amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers did not affect the plant height, dry matter yield, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod per plant, shelling percentage but significantly affected the weight of pods and seeds. Plants treated with 800 kg/ha of chicken manure gave a yield of 2,665.0 kg/ha or 2.67 tons/ha followed by plants treated with 1,000 kg/ha with a yield of 1,977.5 kg/ha or 1.98 tons/ha. The lowest yield was 831.7 kg/ha or 0.8 tons/ha by plants treated with 1,200 kg/ha of chicken manure. Peanut plants treated with 800 kg/ha of chicken manure gave the highest gross income of P23,052.25 and the net income of P13,519.76 with net return per peso invested of P1.42
