Abstract:
Phosphocompost was prepared with the mixture of different organic materials to give four compost types: RB+PM+BM+GL, SD+PM+BM+GL, RB+PM+GL and SD+PM+GL. Where RB = Rice bran, SD = Sawdust, BM = Bone meal (Fortifying agent) and GL = Glyricidia sepium. The nitrogen and carbon sources were combined in the ratio 3:1 and moisture content is maintained. On a daily basis, the ambient and pile temperature was taken, fortnightly; samples were picked from each pile and were taken to the laboratory to check pH and electrical conductivity.
