KUALITAS KOMPOS DARI KOMBINASI ECENG GONDOK (EICHORNIA CRASSIPES MART. SOLM) DAN PUPUK KANDANG SAPI DENGAN INOKULAN TRICHODERMA HARZIANUM L.
ABSTRACT: Water Hyacinth (E.
crassipes Mart. Solm) and cow manure can be used as organic fertilizer because
they are organic materials which contain C, N, P, and K needed by plants. The
composting process of E. crassipes and cow manure cannot be directly used as
compost as they need a decomposer to accelerate the decomposition of composting
by adding T. harzianum. This research aims to find out the quality of compost
from a combination of water hyacinth (E. crassipes) and cow manure with
inoculant T. harzianum. The study was conducted for three months from March to
May 2015. The method used was the Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with
Replacemant Series method consisting of five stage treatments which were
repeated 3 times. The results indicated that the organic C content ranged
between 31.29% and 35.42%, nitrogen content between 1.57% and 2.28%, the ratio
of C / N ranged between 14.20 and 19.20, P2O5 ranged between 0.47% and 0.72%,
K2O between 2.27% and 5, 57%, water content between 14.97% and 29.16%, pH
between 6.4 and 6.8, the temperature between 270C and 280C, and humidity
between 54.6% and 58.3%.
