Abstract

Biofertilizers was a carrier-based inoculants containing latent microorganisms. The incorporation of microorganisms in the carrier allows easy long-term storage and high effectiveness of biofertilizers. The aims of this study were to obtain the best carrier in maintaining population of Trichoderma asperellum. The research used completely randomized design, consist of six carrier material. The materials tested for its ability as a carrier were the mixed of empty fruit bunches compost + azolla + chicken egg shell + poultry manure; the mixed of rice straw + azolla + chicken egg shell + poultry manure; the mixed of rice husk + azolla + chicken egg shell + poultry manure; empty fruit bunches biochar; rice husk biochar and cow bone biochar. Research was conducted in soil biology laboratory, Agriculture, Universitas Sumatra Utara, Medan from April 2018 until May 2018.The result showed the cell density of T. asperellum after 8 weeks of storage on all carrier treatments was increasing steadily. The carriers with the highest population T. asperellum after 8 weeks of storage was the mixed of rice straw + azolla + chicken egg shell + poultry manure. The carbon and nitrogen content of the carrier affects the cells density of T. asperellum.
