Abstract

Biotrikom Technology is a technology that combines local ingredients such as the organic waste of oil palm using indogenous microorganisms of local Riau namely Trichoderma spp. which acts as an activator with the addition of a carrier (inert carrier) such as bentonite, kaolin and ash bunch. the Long term aims of this research is to increase business productivity and livelihoods of the farmer of oil palm plantations in Rokan Hilir through the application of Biotrikom technology. The short term aims is the adoption of innovation and biotrikom technology by palm oil farmers so as to using the waste into products of high economic value, aplication Biotrikom as biofertilizer and biopesticide on oil palm cultivation so as to improve business efficiency and productivity of oil palm plantation.
