Abstract:
Crop production in agricultural dry land areas of Africa. is limited by low soil fertility. Bokashi amendment to this soil is considered to be the key solution to overcome the problem for continuing sustainable crop productions. A number of research results in Indonesia have been shown to have beneficial effects in using Bokashi. It is believed that Bokashi is a technology which could change agricultural management to more natural farming system than chemical based practices. Accordingly, it may improve the soil fertility and plant production. Moreover, adopting the Bokashi amendments in this area is regarded to be more adaptable to farmers and abundance locally raw material resources.
