Abstract:The size of organic waste materials plays a pivotal role in the composting process, influencing parameters such as decomposition rate, microbial activity, aeration, and nutrient availability. Currently, the study of compost has focused on the degradatiom of organic matter. The study began by varying the sizes of oil palm EFB to 1-3, 3-5, and 5-7 cm. Subsequently, the EFB were placed into a basket composter (33 cm length x 23 cm width x 40 cm height), and active organic liquid fertilizer was added to achieve a … Show more
