The condition of the ever increasing deficit ( lack of) in meeting the needs of fertilizer nutrients, either type or amount, from year to year the greater unknown. For Indonesia else, means to meet them still rely on some macro-nutrient ( phosphorus, potassium) and secondary nutrient ( Mg, Ca, S) and micro-element) of import sources. Domestic fertilizer demand, which comes from imports, of which type of fertilizer in the form of phosphates ( P2O5) , potassium ( K2O) , secondary macro nutrients include Magnesium or Kieserite ( Mg) , Sulphur ( S) , Calcium ( Ca) and micro-elements ( Fe , Zn, Mo, B, Bo) . So far, fertilizer - is entirely a domestic production is only element in the form of Urea Nitrogen - Diaminomethanal ( NH2) 2CO-and a small portion of SP-deposit sources scattered in small quantities ( spot deposit) in the southern part of Java and other areas.
The availability of chemical fertilizer - as a non-renewable resources ( unrenuwable) while, on the other hand, its use is increasing, has been and will encourage increased prices continuously. Even the threat of deficits, the need for fertilizer nutrient availability, without adequate anticipation ever since it predicted the days-the greater the future.
Not over the concept of site-specific fertilization, ie, nutrient intake, based technique soil fertility conditions in each location ( specific lokalita) , also have contributed to the increase in fertilizer demand. The use of fertilizer was walking with unwise. Although government policy has been a long time, and thought to increase crop productivity while reducing the use of fertilizers - farmers and implementers of government in the field in general has not run a specific pattern of local fertilization.
Even further, existing conditions show that the majority of Indonesian farmers - out of a small businessman-estate and agribusiness company still has a dependency that the fertilizer is urea ( urea minded) and have not had adequate access to data and information mastery fertility of the land where the farm enterprise . Without fertilization specific location, to pursue the same productivity will be required average intake of fertilizers is increasing, and in line with the environmental pollution of agricultural land was higher. The increase in critical land polluted due to high doses of chemical fertilizers, organic material migration into the city without the return of waste material fungsian human consumption and the diversion of land will threaten the food production and the national agricultural output in the future.
Indonesian agricultural patterns - and mostly in developing countries-who harvest and send all parts of the plant to the consumption centers ( cities) also play a role in increasing agricultural damage due to lack of organic matter ( organic C) of agricultural land in the village. Waste material ( waste) human inedible plants, the sorting in the market, in the kitchen and shopping centers in the city, has established a collection of organic waste and then into the garbage problem in the city. While other, at the same time, agricultural land in the villages do not have enough material to meet the organic source ( C Organic) . Thus there has been nutrient impoverishment of agricultural land, and over time the Indonesian agricultural soil fertility decline.
Pollution and destruction of agricultural land had increased in line with the use of high doses of chemical fertilizers by farmers. Dosage recommendations Rice Research Institute for 1 ha of rice 250 kg has been raised solely by the farmers to use urea reached 500 kg, even 1000 kg / ha / season by rice farmers who perceive the plant must be green.
Several ministries and regional governments have been aware of and seek to prevent pollution and land degradation, including through the rehabilitation program and forestry ( GN RHL) . However, realizing the success rate would be higher if supported by a good fertilization. On the other hand, the classic problem of scarcity and price hikes of fertilizer every time the growing season is often still occur. Whereas industrial production of synthetic fertilizers made from small and medium APPKMI members - which include Organic Fertilizer, Organic granule and liquid form, Compound, NPK, Compost, Fertilizer Single products can be a complement of state-owned large industrial fertilizers. For large industries, it is certainly not also be a threat and a rival, since most members APPKMI fertilizer producers still use fertilizer as a result of industrial basic materials.
In the framework of participation in development of fertilizer business of agriculture, plantation and forestry, has made efforts to strengthen and unify the vision and mission in place of Small and Medium Enterprises Association of Indonesian Fertilizer Producers ( APPKMI) . In a gathering of entrepreneurs Appkmi fields of fertilizers, organic and inorganic, organic fertilizer production machine tools and manufacturers of composting machinery.
