Abstract: Organic fertilizers are fertilizers derived from weathering of organic matter in the form of plant residues, animal waste and can come from household waste or industrial waste. One of the organic materials that can be used as solid organic fertilizer is banana leaves and stems. The process of making solid organic fertilizer with the addition of dissolved effective microorganisms (EM 4) accelerates the composting process well. This study aims to observe the physical properties of fertilizers (color, aroma, shape and temperature) and chemical properties (pH, N, P, K, C-Organic and C/N Ratio or analyze the nutrient content of organic fertilizers from banana leaves and stems with Bioactivator Effective microorganism (EM4). This research was conducted at the Production Laboratory of the Plantation Cultivation Study Program and the Laboratory of Soil Science, Samarinda State Agricultural Polytechnic.
