Abstract

The excessive use of agrochemicals has led to deteriorated soil physical and chemical properties in alluvial field soils in Jember Regency, which now contains heavy metals. It is imperative to implement bioremediation efforts to ensure soil quality improvement. This study aims to determine the impact of dried bamboo leaves compost dosage as a bioremediation agent on soil physical and chemical properties. The ability of Bamboo compost to reduce heavy metal pollution of Pb, Cd, Cu, Zn in soil and chili product were analyzed. The method used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Soil physical properties of aggregate stability, soil chemical properties of pH, C-Organic analysis, and heavy metals Pb, Cd, Cu, and Zn are analyzed, followed by the calculation of heavy metal contamination with Contamination Factor (CF), Geoaccumulation Index (I-Geo), and Pollution Load Index (PLI). The results show that dried bamboo leaves compost has good N, P, K, and C-Organic content according to Indonesian National Standard (INS) compost quality. The conclusion of the research is that dried bamboo leaves compost can be used as a bioremediation agent. The chemical properties and metal contaminants of dried bamboo leaves compost can significantly improve with the best dose at 350g/polybag. However, soil physical properties have not seen significant improvement due to the time limited of research therefore long-term research is required for physical properties to improve.
