KAJIAN PEMANFAATAN LIMBAH NILAM UNTUK PUPUK CAIR ORGANIK

Abstract

Waste of the distillation of pogestemon cablin still havet high nutrient content and potential

as a good raw material of organic fertilizer . Rapid composting technology and efficient organic

fertilizer will produce high quality compost. This study aim to determine the best conditions in terms

of fermentation time 6,10,14,18,22 day and volume of bacteria (EM4): 2,4,8,10% EM4/solution were

added to the N, P, K most in the process of making liquid fertilizer to use waste leaves the distillation

of pogestemon cablin of N, P and K respectively 10.6% weight, 1.19% and 3.08% heavy weight and

the volume EM4 8% and the fermentation time of 14 days.

Key words : pogestemon cablin, fermentation, ,liquid organic fertilizer, nitrogen,kalium, phospor
