Indonesia merupakan penyumbang ketiga pasar kakao dunia. Hal ini menyebabkan limbah padat yang dihasilkan mencapai lebih dari 60% dari total produksi buah. Namun penggunaan limbah kulit buah kakao oleh petani belum optimal. Umumnya petani hanya membuang atau membenamkan saja limbah kulit buah kakao tanpa diolah terlebih dahulu menjadi pupuk organik berkualitas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui: (i) Pengaruh biochar dan dekomposer dalam mempercepat proses pengomposan limbah kulit buah kakao dan memperbaiki kualitas pupuk organik, (ii) Mengetahui pengaruh penambahan Bakteri Pelarut Fosfat (BPF) ke dalam pupuk organik yang berasal dari limbah kulit buah kakao terhadap pertumbuhan bibit kakao (Theobroma cacao L.). Penelitian ini dilaksanakan mulai dari September 2014 sampai dengan Agustus 2015. Penelitian tahap pertama dilakukan dengan menggunakan rancangan faktorial 2 faktor dalam Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) untuk mengevaluasi pengaruh penambahan biochar dan dekomposer terha...
This research was to identify and analyze the activity and change of cacao skin waste compost during the decomposition process, analyze the effect of several bioactivators of MOL towards the quality of cacao skin compost and determine the most effective bioactivator of MOL to decompose the cacao skin. This research was done from May – September 2016, by using experimental method, arranged on RAL (Complete Random Arrangement) single factor with 4 treatments which were 1 liter/25kg of MOL of banana hump, 1 liter/25kg MOL of bamboo, 1 liter/25kg MOL of cow's rumen contents and 50 ml/25kg EM4. Each of them was repeated 3 times so that there were 12 units of experiments. The parameters that were observed encompassing observation of changes in microbiological, physical, chemical and compost maturity test. The microbe identification of banana hump MOL, MOL of bamboo and MOL of cow's rumen content produced 13 varieties of bacteria and 3 varieties of fungi. The MOL bacteria was suspected as Bacillus sp. and Streptococcus sp. The MOL fungi was suspected as a group of Penicillium sp., Aspergillus sp. and Trichoderma sp. The bioactivator of MOL can be used as an alternative of EM4 on cacao skin decomposition. The banana hump MOL, MOL of bamboo, MOL of cow's rumen content and EM4 experienced a change at the same time during compost maturation process. The cacao skin compost on MOL of banana hump, MOL of bamboo, MOL of cow's rumen and EM4 had been appropriate with the standard of quality compost SNI 19-7030-2004, except C/N ratio. PENDAHULUAN Indonesia dikenal sebagai negara pengekspor biji kakao terpenting di dunia. Tahun 2010 Indonesia menduduki posisi sebagai pengekspor biji kakao terbesar ke tiga dunia dengan produksi biji kering 550.000 ton (Rubiyo dan Siswanto, 2012). Data dari Badan PBB untuk Pangan dan Pertanian (FAO) menyebutkan, Indonesia menyumbang sekitar 16 persen dari produksi kakao secara global (Zakiya, 2012). Coklat dihasilkan dari biji buah Kakao, sedang daging buah dan kulitnya akan menghasilkan limbah. Kasus penanganan limbah perkebunan kakao sampai saat ini masih merupakan kendala dalam program penanganan limbah di tingkat petani. Masalah ini diantaranya keterbatasan waktu, tenaga kerja, biaya maupun keterbatasan areal pembuangan. Di samping itu limbah pertanian dan perkebunan belum banyak dimanfaatkan, walaupun dalam beberapa kondisi memiliki potensi sebagai bahan pakan ternak maupun bahan baku pembuatan
Bioconversion of cocoa pod husk (CPH) is a way to increase lignocellulosic substance quality. Fermentation process in bioconversion is affected by some factors as length of fermentation. This research was aimed to determine the optimum length of fermentation with Phanerochaete chrysosporium and evaluate CPH composition response. The length of fermentation periods were 0; 5; 10; 15; 20 and 25 days. Measured parameters were soluble substance, pH of substrate, chemical composition, loss of dry matter, organic matter, and lignin and ratio celluloce to lignin. The results showed that crude protein content of fermented CPH was increased (P<0.05) compared to unfermented CPH. The highest lignin degradation (38.61%), the ratio of cellulose to lignin (1.25) and efficiency of biodegradation process (5.65) recorded at day 10 fermentation. It could be concluded that the optimum length of CPH fermentation was 10 days.

Introduction: This research was determined the growth response of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) in N-fertilizer and sugarcane bagasse compost. Materials and Methods: This research was conducted at agricultural area of Sejati Street, Sari Rejo Village, Medan Polonia Sub-District, Medan. This research was conducted from August until December 2015. This research used therandomized block design in factorial. The first factor was N-fertilizer with 4 rates, 0 g.polybag-1 (P0), 2 g.polybag-1 (P1), 4 g.polybag-1 (P2),and 6 g.polybag-1 (P3). The second factor was the provision of sugarcane bagasse compost with 4 rates, 0 g.polybag-1 (K0), 2 g.polybag-1 (K1), 4 g.polybag-1 (K2) and 6 g.polybag-1 (K3). The observed data were analyzed by the F-test, and continued with the DMRT at level of 5%. Results: Composting bagase significantly affected the leaf area of cocoa seedling at 2 and 4 weeks after planting. The application of N-fertilizer had significant affected the number of leaves for cocoa see...

Suatu penelitian lapangan dilakukan untuk mempelajari pengaruh aplikasi kompos yang diperkaya dengan biochar sebagai bulking agent terhadap serapan fosfor dan hasil jagung pada tanah Calcarosol pada musim hujan 2012-2013 dan musim panas 2013. Perlakuan yang dicobakan adalah: (1) kontrol, tanpa pemberian kompos (K0), (2) kompos pupuk kandang sapi (KSB0), (3) kompos pupuk kandang sapi + 2,5 ton ha -1 biochar (KSBOB), (4) kompos pupuk kandang sapi + biochar (3:1) (KSB1), (5) kompos pupuk kandang sapi + biochar (1:1) (KSB2), (6) kompos biomasa C. odorata (KCB0), (7) kompos biomasa C. odorata + biochar (3:1) (KCB1), dan (8) kompos biomasa C. odorata +biochar (1:1) (KCB2). Hasil percobaan menunjukkan bahwa aplikasi kompos biochar sebagai pembenah tanah Calcarosol berpengaruh nyata terhadap peningkatan C-organik, KTK, N total, K-dd, Mg-dd, P tersedia, penurunan P terjerap, peningkatan serapan P, peningkatan bobot kering akar, bobot kering tanaman, dan hasil biji jagung.

Rice husk biochar and compost application are expected to improve soil chemical properties such as pH, organic carbon, and available P in Ultisol, which in turn improves crop growth and P uptake by plants. The purpose of this research was to analyze the effect of the combination of rice husk biochar and compost on the soil chemical properties (pH, organic carbon, and available P), maize growth, and P uptake by maize in an Ultisol. The research used a Randomized Block Design with six treatments (P0: control; P1: 4 t biochar ha-1; P2: 30 t compost ha-1; P3: 4 t biochar ha-1 and 30 t compost ha-1; P4: 8 t biochar ha-1 and 30 t compost ha-1; P5: 4 t biochar ha-1 and 60 t compost ha-1) and four replications. The result showed that the combination of 8 t rice husk biochar ha-1 and 30 t compost ha-1 showed a significant effect on increasing pH, organic carbon, and available P in an Ultisol, increasing the height of maize crops at 4 and 6 WAP (weeks after planting). However, it had no effec...

The Cocoa Husk Waste Compost as A Waste Management Solution
ABDIMAS TALENTA: Jurnal Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat
Deli Serdang is one of the largest centers in North Sumatra for cocoa commodities. Cocoa is strong life support for residents in Candi Rejo Village, Sibiru-Biru District, Deli Serdang Regency, especially for residents in the Pendawa Farmer Group. The abundance of cocoa harvest also causes an increase in the amount of cocoa husk waste. Still, some of the problems that arise cannot be overcome due to the limitations of science and technology. Until now, the abundant cocoa husk waste has just been piled up without any efficient processing. With training and socialization on making compost made from cocoa husk waste effectively and efficiently, the community and farmers in the Pendawa Farmer Group have increased their knowledge and ability to utilize cocoa shell waste as organic fertilizer independently. The use of compost made from cocoa husk waste is expected to increase soil fertility and create a bio-entrepreneurial spirit in the Pendawa Farmer Group.
