Abstract
Changes in lifestyle and the negative impact of chemicals make people aware of the dangers of consuming food products that contain chemical residues, so that many people switch to consume organic food. Black rice is one of the kinds of rice that it starts to be widely has consumed as organic functional food because of its antioxidant and dietary fiber content. Black rice rarely has cultivated because it longer harvests age and lower productivity than white rice. The way to increase the production and quality of black rice is by apply manure or biofertilizer which contains the nutrients needed by plants. This study aimed to find bio activator formulation that has the highest nutrients and functional microbes content in biofertilizer. This study used a completely randomized design with 5 bio activator treatments: Bacillus (B1)- Trichoderma (B2)- Saccharomyces (B3)- Bacillus + Trichoderma (B4), Bacillus + Saccharomyces (B5) which have replicated 3 times. The results showed that the bio activator formulation had a significantly effect on the total bacteria, very significantly effect on the organic C content, total N-fixing bacteria, P solubilizing microbes, N and P content.
