Abstract

This research aims to know the effect of indigenous microorganisms (MOL) from fermentation products of the maja fruit and bamboo shoot mixture on the characteristics and quality of rabbit manure composting. Physical parameters from fermented maja fruit and the bamboo shoots, the observation of growth MOL on the solid and liquid medium, gaseous NH₃ reduction measurement, colony calculation of MOL, and quality of the physical, chemical, and biological were observed. The NH₃ gas reduction was determined upon adding different levels of MOL in rabbit manure 0% (blank), 1%, 3%, and 5% of the total weight of rabbit manure. This research showed that adding fermented products from the mixture of maja fruit and bamboo shoots at 5% gave the best results in decreasing ammonia levels after 14 days of composting. The chemical quality observation result showed that the addition of 5% has a significant effect on the increases in total N compost. The compost product had moisture content at 4.88%, organic matter at 53.03%, C-organic at 30.75%, P-total at 0.38%, K-total at 0.59%, N-total at 4.48%, and C:N Ratio at 6.9%. This research concludes that adding 5% showed the best result in decreasing the ammonia emission levels and increasing the quality of the total nitrogen during rabbit manure composting.
