Abstract

The present work of investigation proposes to systematize the production of organic fertilizer from the waste of fruits and vegetables in the composting plant of the Municipality of Comas; in such a way to improve the final disposal of organic waste. The two types of waste were characterized between fruits and vegetables with weights of 290 kg of vegetables, and 72.8 kg of fruit, and 156 kg of manure as part of the input, which make up a pile for the production of fertilizer. Likewise, other inputs were used to improve the degradation of organic matter; 5 kg of chancaca, 100 g of yeast, 2.5 kg of Cal diluted in 50 L of water. With respect to the physicochemical characteristics measured during the process, the highest temperature of 65 °C was obtained, which went down until reaching 29 ° C, the pH between 5.8 to 7.5 during the whole development and the humidity decreased according to the process from 56.57 % up to 36.55 %. Thus, with the system proposed for the production of organic fertilizer was obtained improvements in the essential nutrients of organic fertilizer, with Nitrogen (N) 1.92 %, Phosphorus (P2O5) 1.92 % and Potassium (K2O) 3.19 %. Also, pH 7.04 and organic matter (MO.) 32.32 % which these values ​​improved the quality with respect to those produced in Comas composting plant.
