The purpose of this study was to examine the use of bio-activator from banana tuber and goat rumen to make liquid biopesticide fertilizers. The liquid biopesticide fertilizer (LBF) was formulated from ginger, turmeric, curcuma, papaya and pineapple. The ingredients are blended prior to test. Treatment 1 (Bio) was set with the mixture of LBF added with bio-activator from banana tuber and goat rumen, the positive control mixture was added to EM4 bio activator, while control (C) only added with arcades. All treatments were mixed a concentration of bio-activator of 50 ppm. The results showed that the use of bio-activators from banana tubers and rumen goats to make liquid biopesticide fertilizers has shown effectiveness compared to controls. This process shows an increase in nitrogen content from day 13 to 17. Organic matter and carbon content are highest on day 13, while phosphorus content is highest on day 17.
