| Abstract | This research aimed to study the effectiveness of compost from elephant dung with organic matter on green oak lettuce growth. The experimental design was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) of 11 treatments with 3 replications; treatment 1; unfertilized (control), treatment 2; chemical fertilized (15-15-15) and treatment 3–11; compost from mixing ratio of elephant dung: cricket manure: water hyacinth: vinasse: bat manure compost formula 1–9, respectively. The experiment was conducted in the plant science field at the Faculty of Food and Agricultural Technology, Pibulsongkram Rajabhat University. The result showed that the fertilizer formula 9 with the compositions of elephant dung, cricket manure, water hyacinth, vinasse and bat guano at the ratio of 40:30:20:10:0 with pH 7.12, moisture content 29.23%, organic matter content 40.72%, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium doses of 23.78, 16.63 and 19.11 g/kg, respectively provided the highest growth and yield of green oak lettuce with similar qualities to that of chemical fertilizers. Therefore, the research findings can be disseminated to society and promoted the production and use of compost in agriculture instead of chemical fertilizers. The farmers have probably done more to further the distribution of the proper compost ratio among green oak lettuce growers. |
