This study explores the production of compost from organic waste using an innovative rotating compost bin and its application in banana cultivation. The project was conducted Project-Based Learning (PBL) approaches to promote meaningful, student-centered learning. Organic waste such as food scraps and dry leaves was collected, processed, and converted into compost within 2–4 weeks through a controlled system incorporating aeration and regular monitoring.The resulting compost was applied to banana plants, and growth performance was compared with plants grown without compost. Data on plant height, leaf count, and soil condition were collected and analysed. Findings indicate that compost-treated plants showed improved growth, healthier foliage, and enhanced soil moisture retention. The study also demonstrates the potential of composting as a sustainable solution for waste management and agricultural productivity. This project aligns with global sustainability goals, particularly responsible consumption and climate action.
