The dimension of pile composting was 1.5 m, with height was 80 cm, and 1 m of width. The observed parameters included temperature, pH, carbon and nitrogen compost. The composting process were during eight weeks that result which have temperature between 25-51oC , compost pH between 6.6-7.0, C/N ratio is 16.8-20.93. The color of produced compost was dark brown. The quality of the produced compost from the four treatments were accordance to SNI Standard 19-7030-2004.
