“…When applied with other organic wastes WRW generally showed significantly higher crop yields, particularly at higher WRW application rates (Table 2). Sairi et al (2018) used NPK in the growth of chili seedlings and found it to be on par with fermented WRW, which led them to conclude that fermented WRW can be used as NPK replacement. Hariyadi (2020) substantiated it with a recent study that reported that WRW performed better than monosodium glutamate and air conditioner's water on tomato's growth (Table 2).…”

“…The global mineral fertilizer demand increases every year because its demand is affected by population and economic growth, agriculture production and governance, and food price (FAO, 2015). Compared with mineral fertilizers, organic fertilizer has a longer-term effect on soils and plants, and it is claimed to be more environmentally friendly (Chandini et al, 2019;Sairi et al, 2018;Shaviv, 2001). However, one of the shortcomings of organic fertilizer is its slower effect on plants than inorganic fertilizers due to the slower release of organic fertilizers' nutrients.…”

“…It also increased the growth of mushroom (Handiyanto et al, 2013;Kalsum et al, 2011), height and leaf number of Adenium plant (Andrianto, 2007), chili (Sairi et al, 2018), as well as mustard green plants (Hairudin, 2015). Wulandari et al (2012) attributed the higher root growth of lettuce to the high sulfur (S) content (270 mg L -1 ) present in the WRW (Table 2), in which S helps in thiamine synthesis.…”

A significant wastewater source in every household is washed rice water (WRW) because it contains leached nutrients (from washing the rice prior to cooking) that could be used as fertilizer. The paper reviewed the current understanding of the potential use of WRW as a plant nutrient source. WRW was shown to increase vegetables growth, such as water spinach, pak choy, lettuce, mustard, tomato, and eggplant. Different researchers have used various amounts of WRW, and their results followed a similar trend: the higher the amount of WRW, the higher the plant growth. WRW has also been used for other purposes, such as a source of carbon for microbial growth. WRW from brown rice and white rice had nutrients ranging from 40-150, 43-16306, 51-200, 8-3574, 36-1425, 27-212, and 32-560 mg L-1 of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S, and vitamin B1 (thiamine), respectively. Proper utilization of WRW could reduce chemical fertilizer use and prevent both surface and groundwater contamination and environmental pollution. However, only a few of the studies have compared the use of WRW with the use of conventional NPK fertilizer. The major drawback of WRW studies is that they lack depth and scope, such as determining the initial and (or) final soil physico-chemical properties or plant nutrient contents. Considering the rich nutrient content in WRW, it will impact plant growth and soil fertility when used as both irrigation water and plant nutrient source. Therefore, it is recommended that studies on WRW effect on soil microbial population, plant, and soil nutrient contents to be carried out to ascertain the sustainability of WRW use as a plant nutrient source.

Chemical and Microbial Characterization of Washed Rice Water Waste to Assess Its Potential as Plant Fertilizer and for Increasing Soil Health

The wastewater from washed rice water (WRW) is often recommended as a source of plant nutrients in most Asian countries, even though most current research on WRW lack scientific rigor, particularly on the effects of rice washing intensity, volumetric water-to-rice ratio (W:R), and condition of the WRW before plant application. This research was thus carried out: (1) to determine how various rice washing intensities, fermentation periods (FP), and W:R would affect the nutrient content in WRW, and (2) to isolate, identify, and characterize the bacterial community from fermented WRW. The WRW was prepared at several rice washing intensities (50, 80, and 100 rpm), FP (0, 3, 6, and 9 days), and W:R (1:1, 3:1, and 6:1). The concentrations of all elements (except P, Mg, and Zn) and available N forms increased with increasing FP and W:R. Beneficial N-fixing and P- and K-solubilizing bacteria were additionally detected in WRW, which helped to increase the concentrations of these elements. Monovalent nutrients NH4+-N, NO3−-N, and K are soluble in water. Thus, they were easily leached out of the rice grains and why their concentrations increased with W:R. The bacteria population in WRW increased until 3 days of fermentation, then declined, possibly because there was an insufficient C content in WRW to be a source of energy for bacteria to support their prolonged growth. While C levels in WRW declined over time, total N levels increased then decreased after 3 days, where the latter was most possibly due to the denitrification and ammonification process, which had led to the increase in NH4+-N and NO3−-N. The optimum FP and W:R for high nutrient concentrations and bacterial population were found to be 3 to 9 days and 3:1 to 6:1, respectively. WRW contained nutrients and beneficial bacterial species to support plant growth.
