expiration date and maintain their quality for longer if they are not used. If all proce-

dures are executed accurately, by applying fertilizers byper the regulations, this ferti-
lizer can generate 40-60% higher yields than regular harvests.

The agricultural program in Pinrang Regency, implemented by Bappelitbanda
Pinrang Regency in 2021, aims to enhance agricultural productivity by utilizing organic

fertilizer. The program focuses on the available plantation area of 17,143.23 hectares,
which presents an investment opportunity in the agricultural fisheries sector. In 2020,

this sector achieved a production output of 42,075.01 tons of fishery products. The

agricultural land area allocated for rice plantations is 56,097.80 hectares, while the
area designated for maize cultivation is 10,815 hectares. In 2020, the total rice output

amounted to 638,983 tons, while corn production reached 122.02 tons during the same
year. Currently, the cultivated area for crops is 41,177.65 hectares, with a production

of 19,070.47 tons, which varies between coconut and sugar palm.

Raksun's study (Raksun, 2016) showed that using non-organic fertilizer led to
a significant increase in agricultural plantation yield, ranging from 3 to 20 percent.

Concurrently, implementing organic fertilizers will enhance output outcomes by 20 to
23 percent. Follow-up investigations utilizing Yomari International corporation's or-

ganic fertilizers, enhanced with nanotechnology in Japan, shown a notable 40-60 per-

cent augmentation in crop yields (Yomari International, 2021).
The aim is to enhance agricultural productivity and maximize profits in Pinrang

Regency by utilizing organic fertilizers with nano technology, as indicated by the pro-
spects of paddy and overall agricultural production (Bappelitbanda Kab Pinrang, 2021).

The projected maximum profit is IDR 4,911 trillion. According to the data, there was
a 40% increase in paddy production, from 638,983 tons to 894,576 tons.

A study conducted by Arafah (2011) investigated the use of organic fertilizers in

Pinrang to improve food security. The study compared the profitability of two different
organic fertilizers: manure organic fertilizer, which resulted in a profit of Rp1,582,480

per hectare and increased productivity by 23.19%, and straw organic fertilizer, which
resulted in a profit of Rp580,600 per hectare and increased productivity by 7.42%. A

similar study was conducted by Raksun (Raksun, 2016), which demonstrated that us-

ing organic fertilizer, specifically bio green granules fertilizer, enhanced the soil's phys-
ical, chemical, and biological properties. This had a positive impact on plant growth

and yield. Applying a specific quantity of bio green granule during fertilization might
significantly increase agricultural yield, specifically by 2.8 tons per hectare or 23%. A
