High-Quality Compost Production In Patumbak - Indonesia

Organic fertiliser derived from processed livestock waste has become an essential resource for local farmers in response to the inconsistent availability of subsidised inorganic fertilisers. On October 30, 2025, Purnomo, a staff member at PT Nousindo Nusatara Agri’s compost processing plant, showcased the Indonesian Oil Palm Research Institute (PPKS) Laboratory Analysis Certification in Patumbak, Deli Serdang, North Sumatra. This certification confirms that the local compost fertiliser meets quality standards necessary for soil nutrient requirements and supports small-scale fertiliser industries in participating in the national food program. PT Nousindo's conversion of cow dung into high-quality compost offers a vital independent solution for agricultural sustainability. Photo by Aditya Sutanta/ABACAPRESS.COM
