Adult flies will die and their carcasses can be used as fertilizers for plants, cosmetic products. Not only its larva or maggot, but its <em>prekuvanya<\/em> can be used as cattle and fish food. &#8220;It can increase protein in cattle which eventually consume by humans,&#8221; he added.  <\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, he said that the method was still in trial phase at Gunung Madu Plantations (GMP) sugar factory in Center Lampung since 28 April 2014 by using <em>blotong<\/em> [sugarcane waste]. &#8220;Using <em>blotong<\/em> is still new in Indonesia,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p>Gunamarwan, finance and general manager of GMP said that the factory produced 80 thousand tons of <em>blotong<\/em> during harvest season. They welcomed initiative to turn <em>blotong<\/em>, known as waste, to more resourceful material. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Results of this method are proven to be able to increase nitrogen from 0.2 to 1.2 percent. In addition, lands have become more fertile and ground increased from 10 cm to 14 cm,&#8221; Gamawarman said. &#8220;Aside from <em>blotong<\/em>, we also encourage employees to separate organic and non organic waste.
