Inoculación de microorganismos en el proceso de compostaje

Abstract

In the Province of Tungurahua in Montalvo parish, there are a large number of guinea pig farms that provide an important source of organic fertilizers, which is an ideal opportunity to use bioinoculants from efficient strains of microorganisms that allow the development of agricultural bio-inputs. The objective of this work was to determine the effect of bioinoculants on the content of organic carbon, total nitrogen and the carbon / nitrogen ratio. According to the statistical analysis, it was observed that there were no significant difference (p = 0.05) between the application of bioinoculants and the control without bioinoculants. With the application of Aspergillus fumigatus and Bacillus subtillis, the composting process was accelerated to 14 days. Great temperature was reached when A. fumigatus was inoculated and acidification aswell, while major electrical conductivity was observed in bionoculants composed by A. fumigatus y B. subtillis. Major number of colony forming unids were represented by bacteria communities and fungal communities.
