- Abstract
The increase in greenhouse gases emissions (CH4) in the atmosphere will contribute to an increase in global warming. The increase in methane gas (CH4) is related to the solid and liquid waste of beef cattle which is not used optimally by some farmers, so it tends to contribute to the increase in methane gas (CH4). Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a study to reduce methane (CH4) emissions through processing the solid and liquid waste into trichocompost, bio urine, and bio slurry as a source of organic fertilizer for sweet corn (Zea mays L. Sacharata). This study aimed to examine the pattern of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the form of methane gases (CH4) through the use of trichocompost, bio urine, and bio slurry on sweet corn (Zea mays L. Sacharata). This study used a Randomized Block Design (RBD) design with 4 treatment groups with 4 replications, each test consisted of 2 (two) experimental units. The treatment consists of a combination of inorganic fertilizers (SP36, KCL, Urea) and organic fertilizers (trichocompost, biourine and bio slurry). The treatments were as follows: (1) 100% inorganic fertilizer (Io100) (2) 75% inorganic fertilizer + 25% organic fertilizer (Io75O25), (3) 50% inorganic fertilizer + 50% organic fertilizer (Io50O50), (4) Inorganic Fertilizer 25% + 75% organic fertilizer (Io25O75). Observed variables: the pattern of flux methane gas (CH4) after the first and second fertilization and the emission of methane gas (CH). The results showed that the highest CH4 flux in the first fertilization resulted from Io75O25 treatment, while in the second fertilization; the highest CH4 flux production wasproduced in Io100 application and the lowest at Io25O75. The lowest CH4 emissions produced werebytheIo25O75 treatment. The results showed that the usage of inorganic fertilizers (N-P-K) 25%,50%, 75% replaced with organic fertilizers (Trichocompost, Bio urine and Bio slurry) based on beef cattle 75%, 50%, 25% on sweet corn field (Zea mays L. Sacharata) could reduce methane (CH4) emissions around 75%, 38.68% and 21.68%.
