Abstract


Vietnam's agriculture has developed alongside the amount of by-products being discarded from processing and preservation processes, including damaged fruits, pulp, fiber, and post-harvest by-products. The purpose of this research is to utilize agricultural by-products as raw materials to produce microbial organic fertilizers, creating a source of clean agricultural products that protect consumer health and reduce environmental pollution. The survey used by-products from the processing of dried jackfruit, mango, soursop wine, and straw, creating an organic fertilizer product that is effective on crops. The appropriate mixing ratio of the raw materials is 2.5 kg of straw; 0.8 kg of mango; 0.8 kg of jackfruit; 0.8 kg of soursop; supplemented with 0.5 kg of rice husk ash fermented with 0.5% the Trichoderma - Bacillusproduct for 49 days, which is optimal for the production process. The experiment using the organic microbial fertilizer on water spinach showed that within 7 days of sowing, the water spinach had a high germination rate, and by the 21st day, the height of the plants reached 36.3 cm. The research results confirm that agricultural by-products have the potential to be utilized in the organic fertilizer production process.
