Abstract:

Bioorganic liquid fertilizers were produced from locally available substrates like chicken manure and banana peels. It was obtained through aerobic fermentation comprises a number of growth substances, vitamins, antibiotics, amino acids and useful micro-organisms. Bioorganic liquid fertilizer increases fertility of crops and also accelerates plant maturation through improved nutrient quality. Thus, the present study was aimed to produce bioorganic liquid fertilizer from chicken manure and banana peels through aerobic fermentation in open containers. The macronutrients were determined by the Kjeldahl method consists of three steps: digestion, distillation and titration. The results were indicated that C, C:N ratio, Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca) and sodium (Na),) phosphorus (P) were found to be significantly different between bioorganic liquid fertilizer and compost tea solutions. There was no significant difference between the bioorganic liquid fertilizer and compost tea in the amount of N and Mg at p
