Boesenbergia rotunda (L.) Mansf. is a highly important medicinal plant underZingerberaceae family commonly known as temu kunci and widely found in Asiancountries where it is commonly used as food ingredient and ethnomedicine. Therhizome and fingerroot of this species contain several bioactive compounds withpharmaceutical properties. This plant requires optimum environment especiallynutrient to increase the production and improve the quality of this plant. Intensiveuse of chemical fertilizer in agriculture affected people health and environment.Organic material has been widely used in agriculture development to improve thesoil quality, crop yield, plant growth performance, and to reduce the dependencieson chemical fertilizer. This study was conducted to identify the effects of organicmaterials on plant growth and production of selected secondary metabolites of thisspecies.
