Abstract

Chili is one of the vegetable commodities that have great prospects for development, one of which is by increasing the production of chili with organic and inorganic mulch. In addition to increasing the production, mulch can determines macro beneficial soil fauna in crops chili. This Research was conducted on agricultural land, Faculty of Agriculture, USU. This research used Randomized Block Design (RDB) non factorial with 4 treatments (organic mulch, organic mulch + Bacillus Sp., organic Mulch + Bacillus Sp. + Trichoderma, mulch Plastic). This diversity is determined by diversity index assed (Shannon-Wienner). The results indicated that the macro fauna species caught are the family Salticidae, Formicidae, Gryllidae.
