“…Several researchers showed that the compost extract can control several pathogenic fungi like Botrytis cinerea, Alternaria alternata, Pyrenochaeta lycopersici (Palou et al, 2013;Pane et al, 2012) (Kerkeni and Khedher, 2007). The suppressiveness of compost extract is mostly due to its microbial community (Koné et al, 2010;Lin et al, 2014;Pane et al, 2012;Powell and Barry, 2017;Suárez-Estrella et al, 2013;Ventorino et al, 2016). These microbes exert their antagonism by microbiostasis, antibiosis and hyperparasitism and/or stimulate systemic resistance in host plants (Le Page and Bousquet, 2007).…”

Bayoud, vascular wilt of date palm caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. albedinis (Foa), is widely distributed in all date palm growing regions of Morocco. It is the most serious disease of the date palm. Compost is recognized for their ability to improve soil characteristics and to protect the crops against biotic and abiotic stress. In this experiment, in vitro effects of different concentrations of sterilized and unsterilized compost extract on the growth of F. oxysporum f. sp. albedinis were evaluated. All concentration of unsterilized compost extract decreased radial growth of Foa. In fact, fungal radial growth inhibition ranged from 20 to 97%. Higher antifungal activity was noted in 30 and 40% concentration (more than 93%). Nevertheless, sterile compost extract inhibited mycelia growth only for the 40% concentration with 18% fungal growth inhibition, while lower concentrations were not effective.

“…The basic components required as nutrients for microorganisms are carbon, nitrogen, and water. Microorganisms will use C compounds as an energy source to breed and [8]. Li et al [23] reported that, in general, the most efficient lignocellulose degraders are fungi due to the fact that their mycelial structure has a competitive advantage over bacteria.…”

“…Composting is one of the methods that have proven to be efficient and effective in waste processing, from both economic and environmental points of view [6]. Many studies on composting using various types of microorganisms have been done with relatively effective results [7], [8]. The success of compost production is determined by the ability of decomposer microorganisms to decompose organic matter.…”

This study aims to identify the ability of tofu liquid waste generated from anaerobic processing to act as a microorganism source to help expedite compost decomposition. In this research, composting was performed on 2 kg of rice husks to which tofu liquid waste was added in various volumes (500-2000 mL) and 1 kg of cow manure. This research used a nonfactorial completely randomized design with five treatments and four repetitions, which made a total of 20 unit trials. Changes in pH, humidity (rH), C composition, N, C/N ratio, and number of colonies were analyzed to observe the compost quality. The data collected were then analyzed using SPSS 16. The research findings showed that increasing the volume of tofu liquid waste has a significant impact on composting temperature, and all compost outputs were within proper compost criteria. Increasing tofu waste volume can improve the population of microorganisms, which accelerated the decomposition process of organic matter. The highest number of bacterial colonies, 73 colony forming units, was found on 1500-mL treatment. At this condition the values obtained were 17.94%, 0.9%, and 20.1 for C, N, and C/N ratio, respectively.

Food waste (FW) has been recognized as a critical problem in Korea and many research was conducted to efficiently utilize or treat FW. Main purpose of this research was to evaluate a feasibility for producing fermented organic fertilizer with vegetable waste (VW). Three different organic materials (saw dust, coco peat, and waste mushroom media) were mixed with VW at the rate of 30, 40, 50% respectively. Total days of composting experiment were 35 days and each sub samples were collected at every 5 days from starting of composting. Result showed that inner temperature of composting was increased to 60±4°C within 5~10 days depending on varied organic materials and mixing ratio. Among different treatment, the highest increase of inner temperature was observed when 30% of saw dust was mixed with VW. After finishing composting experiment, maturity of each compost was evaluated with solvita and germination test. Maturity index (MI) of each treatment was ranged between 5~7 indicating that manufactured fertilizer was curing or finished stage. Calculated germination index (GI) was at the range of 57.83~101.16 depending on organic materials and mixing ratio. Both MI and GI showed that manufactured fertilizer was met for fertilizer criteria while control (VW only) was not adequate for composting. Overall, VW can be utilized for making organic fertilizer mixing with saw dust, coco peat and more research should be conducted to make high quality of organic fertilizer with vegetable waste.
