Abstract
A study that aims to assess the activity and changes of baglog compost during
decomposition by termites’ soil activator and uret macro fauna, as well as testing the
quality of the termites’ soil activator and uret macro fauna in accelerate the process of
composting the baglog.
The study was compiled by using a completely randomized design (CRD) with the
design of single factor treatment, consisting of four treatments, i.e. fungus baglog
composting with : 40 ml / 20 kg of Termites’ Soil Activator, 250 g / 5 kg of Uret Macro
Fauna, 20 ml / 20 kg of Commercial Activators and without Activator. The parameters
that were observed encompassing observation of changes in physical, chemical,
microbiological and compost maturity test.
The result shows the treatment of termites’ soil activator and uret macro fauna
experience physical, chemical and microbiology changes in the process of maturation of
the compost. However, the treatment that tends to be better is the treatment of termites’
soil activator. The quality of the termites’ soil activator is better than other treatments
in composting baglog to yield 27.90% organic ingredients. Baglog compost that is
compliance by the standards of SNI 19-7030 - 2004 uses termites’ soil activator (C / N
15.86%), uret macro fauna (C / N 10.07%), commercial activator (C / N 13.24% ) and
without activator (C / N 11.93%).
