Peningkatan Mutu Kompos Kiambang MelaluiAplikasi Teknologi Hayati dan Kotoran Ternak Sapi Improvement of Compost Quality of Kiambang ThroughBiological Technology and Cattle Manure Applications
Abstract: Kiambang (Salvinia
natans) which a water plant became a seriously problem in the use of Reservoir
Batutegi, because nearly 80% of its surface covered by Salvinia natans. The
presence of highly abundant of Salvinia natans have highly potential to be used
as a source of organic fertilizer. The purpose of this study was to examine the
effect of the application of biological technology (decomposers) and cow manure
on the quality of the resulting compost kiambang. This study used randomized
block design and experiment arranged in factorial 4 x 4 with three
replications. The first factor was the dose of decomposers which consists of 4
levels, namely A1 = 0 ml, A2 = 20 ml, 30 ml dose = A3, and A4 = 40 ml
decomposers per quintal kiambang respectively. The second factor was the dose
of cattle dung, i.e. B1 = 0 kg, B2 = 10 kg, 20kg = B3, and B4 = 30 kg manure
per quintal kiambang. The results showed
the compost that has the best quality in terms of physical and chemical compost
was the compost derived from the treatment of 30 ml and 40 ml decomposers per
quintal kiambang which combined with 10 kg, 20 kg or 30 kg manure per quintal
kiambang.
