Growth and Pepper Yields (Capsicum annuum L.) by Giving a Formulation of Biological Fertilizer of Cellulolytic Bacteria Based on Organic Liquid Waste

摘要

Red pepper production in 2016-2017 was increased. Although production has increased, demand for pepper will continue to increase, and efforts to increase soil fertility still need to be sought. To maintain and increase soil productivity, a combination of inorganic fertilizers with appropriate organic fertilizers is needed. One of the organic fertilizers is biofertilizers. This research aimed at finding out the formulation and dosage of biological fertilizers consortium of cellulolytic bacteria based on organic liquid waste that was appropriate for the growth and yield of red pepper plants. This research method used a Completely Randomized Design with 12 treatments, namely (5, 10, 15) ml of biological fertilizer of waste water washing rice, (5, 10, 15) ml of biological fertilizer of coconut water waste, (5, 10, 15) ml of biological fertilizer of tofu water waste, (5, 10, 15) ml of palm oil liquid fertilizer. The results showed that all biological fertilizer application based on organic liquid waste cellulolytic was able to give varied results on each parameter observed so that all wastes could be applied to pepper plants. Tofu wastewater biofertilizer with a dose of 10 ml give a good response to the production of pepper plants compared to other treatments.
