| Compost Tea, can be used as ORGANIC PESTICIDES |
|
Engineers from the Lab. Remedial Environmental, Environmental Technology Center, BPPT, Ir. Dominic H. Akhadi say, useful addition to compost tea as a source of nutrients, can also be used as natural pesticides to combat pests, ticks and some plant diseases. "By using compost tea can be obtained agricultural products are organic in nature, because it is no longer in use artificial pesticides and fertilizers from the factory, so that the results of the farm is safe for humans and the environment because it no longer cause pollution," said Dominic on Anniversary Exhibition Technology BPPT Go -29 in Jakarta, Friday (24 / 8)..
Dominic explains, compost tea is a fluid derived from leaching (water seepage) from the compost, not only for plant nutrients but also rich in microbes that are beneficial to plant growth and can also function as natural pesticides. Excess compost tea is the content of these microbes, if the compost is intended only to extract the nutrients, in addition to the nutrients of compost tea, as well as fertilizers and microbial elements is very useful. "So in the compost extract the main goal is that nutrition can be obtained from the leaching when the composting process, while the growing compost tea is beneficial microbes that created the system so that only the aerobic microbes (which requires oxygen) which will be useful and grow," said. According to him, it is very easy to compost tea, is like tea bags, but there are important things that must be considered in the creation and utilization of materials that compost tea quality, sufficient supply of oxygen needed to stimulate the growth of aerobic microbes, and the product will highly effective if the use of less than 24 hours after production.
