摘要:Household composting is rapidly increasing and many encounter problems on how to make a setup that goes well within their premises. The aim of this paper was to identify organisms or their combinations which improved household composting outcome from selected wastes within Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines. The experiment focused on the application of macro and microorganisms namely, vermi worms ( Eisenia fetida ) , Trichoderma harzianum and Effective Microorganism s (EM) and their combinations which resul ted in the highest percent reduction in weight of waste, biofertilizer produced and macronutrien t content after forty five (45) days of composting at the household level. Results showed that T. harzianum + E. fetida (T4) was most effective in weight reduct ion of waste and biofertilizer produced while compost produced from the T. harzianum (T2) achieved the highest total macronutrient (NPK) among the treatments applied
