Carbon dioxide production during composting of agro-waste can be taken as the indicator of rate, progress and termination of compost phenomenon and stabilization of organic matter, leading to a balanced compromise between complexity of mathematical model and extensive experimentation. Modeling and simulation of composting of agro-wastes based on experimentally measured carbon dioxide production...

Three lignocellulolytic fungi isolates, Amblyosporium sp, Aspergillus sp1, and sp2, were tested for their ability to produce cellulase, hemicellulose, ligninase enzymes as a consortium. They also used in mixture with sugarcane bagasse, filter cake manure make mixed compost. In the compost house of State Agricultural Polytechnic Pangkep, composting took place 35 days. The process consortium was ...

Sugarcane Bagasse is one of the wastes come out from sugarcane water milling which currently very much and abundant in Pidie. Since this garbage cannot naturally disintegrate, it might harm environment. One way to manage bagasse by processing become compost. This study examined results composting using a reduction treatment material size addition several types bioactivators that aim accelerate ...

In order to investigate the effect of sugarcane compost on consumption of nitrogenous fertilizers in corn fields, a research project was conducted according split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications along 2015 year. The main plot included different chemical nitrogenous fertilizer (Zero; control, 60 and 120 kg.ha-1 pure nitrogen from urea ...

Agro-industrial wastes such as sugarcane bagasse, wheat bran, rice bran, corn cob and wheat straw are cheapest and abundantly available natural carbon sources. The present study was aimed to production of amylase and xylanase simultaneously using agro-industrial waste as the sole carbon source. Seven thermophilic strains of actinomycete were isolated from the mushroom compost. Among of these, s...

Composting has been recognized as one of the most cost effective and environmentally sound alternatives for organic wastes recycling from long and composted wastes have a potential to substitute inorganic fertilizers. We investigated the potential of composted tannery sludge for ornamental purposes and to examine the effects of two different composts and concentrations on ornamental Capsicum gr...

Reusing organic wastes in land applications would enhance the recovery of resources, following concepts circular economy. The sugarcane-based sugar industry produces various by-products (e.g., sugarcane filter mud, molasses, and bagasse) that have potential to contribute crop production soil fertility, owing their high contents matter nutrients. Although agricultural benefits compost utilizatio...

BACKGROUND: Soil nutrition management is an important factor, which determines the plant growth. Soil fertility is determined by the presence or absence of nutrients i.e. macro and micronutrients, which are required in optimum level for crop. OBJECTIVES: Evaluate the effect different amount of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers in maize field under sugarcane ...

sugarcane mite, oligonychus sacchari mcgregor, is one of the most important pests of sugarcane plant in khuzestan province, southwest of iran. during a two-year study (2007-2008), the biology of the sugarcane mite, o. sacchari, was investigated on three commercial varieties cp48-103, cp57-614 and cp69-1062 under laboratory conditions (temperature 30±1° c, rh% 60±5 and a photoperiod of 16:8 (l:d...
