| dc.description.abstract | The Assay of Trichoderma spp. and Bacillus spp. to Decompose Empty Fruit
Bunch, has been done from September to October 2009 at the Microbiology
Laboratory of FMIPA USU. This study was aimed to investigate the ability of
Bacillus spp. and Trichoderma spp. to degrade empty fruit bunch. This study used
Non Factorial Complete Random Sampling, which were: T0 (Control), T1 (Water
only), T2 (Bacillus spp.), T3 (Trichoderma spp.), T4 (Combination Bacillus spp. and
Trichoderma spp.). The result showed that Bacillus spp. and Trichoderma spp. had
potential to degrade empty fruit bunch. The number of microorganism increased
steadly up to week 5 th while from week 6 th to 8 th, the grow of microorganism
decreased in all treatments. Statistical test showed that there was no difference among
treatments. Combination of Bacillus spp. and Trichoderma spp. Decomposed empty
fruit bunch faster than other treatment, with the C/N ratio 10.1 at 8 weeks. | en_US |
