The purpose of this literature study was to examine whether the addition of azolla to water hyacinth compost has the potential to increase N nutrients in water hyacinth compost. The methodology was carried out by reviewing research results from various scientific journal literature. The result, that the nutrient content of water hyacinth compost has a total N element of 1.3%, while according to other studies, the total N nutrient content in water hyacinth compost is (1.58-1.75%), then Azolla plants have a total N content of 2.77% while in other studies showed that the total N content of azolla was 2.57%. The conclusion, combining water hyacinth with azolla has the potential to increase N nutrients in water hyacinth compost.
