KAJIAN AKTIVATOR RUMEN KUDA DAN PENAMBAHAN DAUN GAMAL (Gliricidia sepium) UNTUK MEMPERCEPAT PENGOMPOSAN SEKAM PADI
Abstract
This Research in order to review the effect of horse rumen compost
activator, with additional gamal leaves against the rate of decomposition and
quality of rice husk waste compost in accordance with SNI. This research was
conducted from February to July 2017.
This research By using experimental method with single factor treatment
design that arranged by complete randomized design (CRD) with four treatments,
that is : Rice husk + horse Rumen, Rice husk + Rumen horse + Gamal leaves,
Rice husk + horse Rumen, and Rice husk + EM4. Each treatment repeated three
times and get twelve experimental unit. parameters observed included Physical
observed (temperature, colour, smell, moisture content, particle size and the
ability to binding water), chemistry observed (pH) and final compost observe (COrganik,
BO, N, C/N Ratio).
Results of the research showed that composting rice husk using rumen
horse activator and additional gamal leaves produce compost that is appropriated
by SNI (SNI 19-7030-2004),except B-Organik dan C/N ratio
