Peran Vermikompos Dalam Meningkatkan Produktivitas Tanaman Dan Pengelolaan Limbah Organik: Kajian Literatur


Abstract

Vermicompost is an organic fertilizer produced through the decomposition of organic matter with the help of earthworms and microorganisms. The use of vermicompost is increasingly being developed because it can increase soil fertility, improve plant growth, and reduce environmental pollution caused by organic waste. This literature review aims to analyze the role of vermicompost in increasing plant productivity and organic waste management based on various studies that have been conducted. The method used is a literature study by analyzing ten relevant scientific journals. The aim of this literature review is to synthesize the results of previous research to explain the potential of vermicompost as an organic fertilizer, its benefits for plant productivity, and its contribution to realizing sustainable organic waste management. The results of the study indicate that vermicompost can increase soil nutrient content, improve soil physical and biological properties, increase plant growth and yield, and become an economically valuable solution for organic waste management. In addition, the quality of vermicompost is influenced by the type of raw material and the type of worms used in the composting process.
