Abstract

To evaluate the decomposition rate and the C/N ratio of biomass residues from several crops that are the main food sources in Indonesia, a litterbag study was conducted from February to November 2016 on ultisols in Natar Village, South Lampung, Indonesia. There were four types of crops biomass residues used i.e., maize stovers, rice straws, shoots and leaves of cassava, and soybean stovers in the form of fresh or compost. A fifty gram dry weight of biomass was put into a litterbag, placed above the ground and at a depth of about 10-20 cm, and incubated for nine months. The remaining biomass (dry weight), the content of Organic-C, Total-N, and C/N levels of the remaining biomass in the litterbag were observed every month until nine months. The dry weight of biomass was obtained
