Abstract: Liquid organic fertilizer is produced through the fermentation of plant waste. This study aims to determine the optimal fermentation time, the effect of Trichoderma sp addition on NPK content, and whether the fertilizer meets the standards set by Minister of Agriculture Regulation No. 261/KPTS/SR.310/M/4/2019[1]. The fertilizer was made using an anaerobic fermentation process with banana peels, cassava leaves, and EM4 as a bioactivator. The independent variables were fermentation durations of 0, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days, along with Trichoderma sp additions of 10g and 30g. Constant variables included 2 kg banana peel waste, 4000 ml coconut water, 1 kg cassava leaves, 75 ml EM4, and 250 g brown sugar. The results showed that the best fermentation occurred on day 28 with the addition of 30g Trichoderma sp. However, Trichoderma sp did not significantly influence NPK levels. The analysis revealed that the NPK content of the fertilizer, derived from banana peel waste, coconut water, and cassava leaves, did not meet the minimum technical quality standards for organic fertilizers, which require an NPK content of 2–6% as per the Minister of Agriculture's Decree No. 261/KPTS/SR.310/M/4/2019[2]. This study highlights the need for further optimization to enhance the NPK levels in liquid organic fertilizer.
