Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of various organic fertilizers and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on the growth and production of alfalfa plants in the tropics. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) factorial pattern consisting of two factors with ten replications. Factor A included the types of organic fertilizer, including chicken manure, cow manure, goat manure, and vermicompost. Factor B was the dose of AMF, which included 0 g and 10 g. The results revealed an interaction effect (p<0,01) between the type of organic fertilizer and AMF factors on AMF colonization in alfalfa roots and leaf chlorophyll. The single factor of the type of organic fertilizer had a very significant effect (p<0,01) on increasing the pH, plant height, number of branches, number of leaves, root fresh weight, shoot fresh weight, and shoot dry weight of the media. Moreover, the single factor AMF had no significant effect (p>0,05) on the observed parameters. In conclusion, the application of various types of organic fertilizers with 20% media volume effectively increased the growth and production of alfalfa plants, and the type of organic fertilizer, cow manure, was the best treatment. The application of organic fertilizers alone or in combination with 10 g of AMF did not significantly affect the growth and production of alfalfa plants

Abstract

Empty palm oil bunches (EFB) are the largest solid waste produced in every processing of palm oil and need to be utilized so as not to pollute the environment. One effort that can be made is to process EFB into liquid fertilizer. However, the high lignin content in EFB makes it difficult for this waste to decompose naturally. Therefore, efforts need to be made to reduce lignin levels in EFB with a delignification process for two hours at a temperature of 90 oC with 12% NaOH solution. The aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of delignification on the quality of liquid fertilizer (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S, fulvic acid, C/N ratio, and pH). This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with four treatments and five replications. P1: Non-delignified EFB, P2: P1 + cow urine, P3: delignified EFB, and P4: P3 + cow urine. Liquid fertilizer was made using a fermentation method for 21 days. The research results showed that delignification treatment was able to increase the presence of calcium and magnesium in liquid fertilizer. The combination of delignification with the addition of cow urine increases the availability of fulvic acid in liquid fertilizer. Keywords: empty palm oil bunches, lignin, nutrients, waste
