Methodology:
Please provide introduction.
Research design:
The utilization of experimental research design is appropriate for this study as it allows
for the determination of whether Talahib, okra, banana peels, and eggshell (organic
waste) can be used as the main components of cardboard box product packaging that
also serves as fertilizer.
Experimental design provides a thorough strategy for gathering and analyzing data,
specifically focusing on identifying causal linkages and testing hypotheses to address
the research objectives.
Careful planning and implementation of experimental design offer a reasonable
possibility of discovering effects and obtaining robust results.
Suggestions:
Clearly state the specific experimental design employed in the study (e.g., randomized
controlled trial, factorial design) to provide a better understanding of the methodology.
Justify why experimental research is the most appropriate choice for this particular study
and explain how it enhances the validity and reliability of the findings.
Consider mentioning the specific research objectives that the experimental design aims
to address, as this will further clarify the purpose and scope of the study.
The researchers conducted an experiment to collect data relevant to the study, aiming to
investigate the feasibility of using talahib and organic waste as key components in the
production of environmentally-friendly cardboard.
By employing scientific methodologies, the experiment was designed to ensure
efficiency and gather comprehensive and robust data on the topic under investigation.
Data collection, as described by Pritha (2020), is a systematic process of gathering
observations or measurements, allowing researchers to acquire first-hand knowledge
and original insights into the research problem.

The procedures described are relatively clear and provide a step-by-step approach to
producing the multi-purpose cardboard product packaging compost. However, there are
a few areas where more specific instructions or details could be helpful.
It would be beneficial to mention the required quantities of talahib grass, okra, and
eggshells to collect. This information will help ensure consistency and reproducibility of
the experiment.
The soaking of the materials overnight is mentioned, but it would be helpful to specify
the soaking medium. Is plain water sufficient, or is there a specific solution that needs to
be used?
While it is mentioned to cut the materials into small pieces, the size or dimensions are
not specified. Providing a recommended size range would assist in achieving consistent
results.
The addition of soda ash to the pulp mixture is mentioned, but the quantity or
concentration is not specified. It would be helpful to provide a specific measurement or
range to ensure accurate results.
The boiling time of one hour is mentioned, but the temperature at which the pulp mixture
should be boiled is not specified. Including the recommended temperature or heat level
would be beneficial.
The instructions mention allowing the mixture to cool down for 2 hours, but it would be
useful to clarify whether this should be done at room temperature or if there are specific
cooling conditions required.
It is suggested to pour off the excess water from the top of the mixture after it has cooled
down, but it would be helpful to elaborate on how to determine the point at which the
excess water has been removed.
The addition of crushed eggshells to the pulp mixture is mentioned, but the quantity or
ratio of eggshells to pulp is not specified. Providing a recommended ratio or range would
ensure consistent results.
The instructions mention pouring the pulp mixture into a shallow container with a flat
surface, but it would be beneficial to specify the dimensions or size of the container to
use.
The use of a silk screen is mentioned, but it would be helpful to provide guidance on the
type of silk screen to use (e.g., mesh size) and any preparation or treatment it may
require before use.
The procedure mentions lifting the silk screen slowly to allow water to drain through, but
it would be useful to provide guidance on how long this draining process should take or
how to determine when it is complete.
