Abstract

The collaboration with 044 Tekno Agro-tourism partners by utilizing organic waste into liquid organic fertilizer (LOF). Sriwijaya State Polytechnic through the Research Master Plan (RMP), one of which is focused on technology and utilization of organic waste. Reducing the use of chemicals is an important step where this research is the answer to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers to fertilize the soil but cause the death of microorganisms.The production of POC is carried out by researchers by utilizing egg shells and onion skins as raw materials to be fermented. This study used a starter with raw materials of coconut water, sugar or molasses and starter seeds for 3 weeks. Utilization of microorganisms to decompose where microbes secrete enzymes as catalysts is more efficient at temperatures of 30-40 oC. The long-term goal is the development of this production into land in Agro-tourism Tekno 044 to become fertile and business for development to add economic value to the community. Optimizing the production of liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) by utilizing raw materials from natural waste will add economic value. This POC will add to the agricultural industry by utilizing waste to return in the green industry.The development of the results of this research will certainly have an influence on Agro-tourism partners Tekno 044/ Korem 044 Gapo who support research innovation so that research will run smoothly
