Organic Fertilizer in the form of Granule Organic Fertilizer (POG), which is enrichedwith functional microbes, has been produced in great quantities nowdays, because it isexpected to improve the physical, chemical, and biological properties of soil at once. Thecondition of land degradation that has become a big concern, in spite of the low organicmatter in the lands, more encourage the increasing of POG production to be applied verysoon into agricultural lands in Indonesia. However, how is the conditions of the POGplant, what kind of raw material that will be used and how does the production processitself run, would be very excited to be analysis in order to develop the future of POGplant. Results showed that the POG plant conditions generally contains of the facilitiesand infrastructure that support the physical/ mechanical process, that is not passed thebiological process first which is known as composting process. The raw materials thathas been used could not maximize organic materials potentials that exist and only relyon animal waste and sugarcane waste (blotong) from sugar mills, as the main mostlyused raw material. While the common POG manufacturing process consist of the mixingof the raw materials, granulation process, drying, cooling, screening, enrichment withfunctional microbes and packaging.
