The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using sewage sludge (SS) biosolids as a low-cost soil fertilizer to improve soil characteristics and crop yields. Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench) plants were grown in soil supplemented with different concentrations of SS (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 g/kg). The results showed that SS soil application led to improved soil quality with a 93% increase of organic matter (at SS dose of 10 g/kg), decreased pH (a reduction from 8.38 to 7.34), and enhanced macro- and micro- nutrient contents. The levels of all the investigated heavy metals (HMs; Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn) in the postharvest SS-amended soil were within the prescribed safe limits. The application of SS to soil considerably enhanced the growth parameters of okra plants. Total biomass increased 13-fold and absolute growth rate increased 10-fold compared to plants grown in nonamended (control) soils. Among the applied SS doses, the 10 g/kg SS dose led to the highest values of the measured growth parameters, compared to those of plants grown in control soils. The induced growth at 10 g/kg SS was accompanied by a substantial increase in metal content in roots, stems, leaves, and fruits; however, all levels remained within safe limits. Consequently, the data presented in this study suggest that SS could be used as a sustainable organic fertilizer, also serving as an ecofriendly method of SS recycling.

The characteristics of crop-livestock systems is crop yield for food or vegetable, and stover or leaf for ruminant feed, being the manure used as organic fertilizer. Phosphorus (P) is the major plant nutrient and considered one of the primary factors limiting crop yields. Rock phosphate (RP) is one of some organic P fertilizer which could increased its solubility if mixed at the initial phase of manure decomposition process. The objective of the research was to investigate the influence of some kind of organic fertilizer on production and nutrient concentration of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L) leaf as forage. A field experiment of randomized block design with 9 treatments and three replicates was done, and the treatments were T1 (RP), T2 (azolla compost), T3 (cow manure), T4 (goat manure), T5 (poultry manure), T6 (azolla+RP), T7 (cow manure+RP), T8 (goat manure+RP), T9 (poultry manure+RP). Okra leaf defoliated at 80 days after planting, and continued measured for fresh leaf production, nitrogen and phosphorus concentration. The results showed that the treatment significantly affected to the fresh leaf production, concentration of nitrogen and phosphorus. The result of DMRT showed that fresh leaf production, concentration of N and P significantly higher if fertilized by goat manure+RP (T8) and poultry manure+RP (T9) compared to another treatments.

The Environmental Office OF Malang Regency (DLH) noted that the amount of waste produced by the people of Malang Regency reached 1004.58 tons/day and as many as 273.33 tons/day waste could not be utilized. Dasa Wisma Azalea is one of the environmental activist community in RT 03 RW 16 Mangliawan Village, Pakis Subistrict, Malang Regency. The thought from the members of Dasa Wisma Azalea stated that the members of community took part in increasing the amount of waste generation in Malang Regency. Based on this thought Dasa Wisma Azalea carried out efforts to manage waste generated by the members of community and plant a variety of useful plants. The programs carried out by Dasa Wisma Azalea include conducting comparative study activity, procuring inorganic storage areas, procuring composter barrels, sorting organic and inorganic waste, making organic fertilizer, sorting inorganic waste, utilizing inorganic waste, buying family medicinal plants (TOGA), vegetables, fruit-producing plants and ornamental plants, as well as maintaining and harvesting the plants. These activity program worked well, this was proven by the RT 03 environment got the 3rd rank in the environmental competition in August 2018 whereas in the previous year RT 03 got the 7th rank.
