This study aims to test a consortium of indigenous Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) in shallot cultivation with Pb contaminated media. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse. A completely randomized design (CRD) was used in this study with one treatment factor. The treatment was the customary consortium of indigenous AMF from 17 locations of shallot land contaminated by Pb. The application of AMF showed no significant effect on fresh bulb fresh weight, leaf fresh weight, plant fresh weight, the total length of leaves, and the number of shallots. The percentage of infection in all treatments, except controls, showed a high percentage of AMF infection. AMF treatment from Slatri Land II showed the highest percentage of infection, that is 93.33%. The consortium of indigenous AMF from Kupu Land II was able to reduce the highest Pb accumulation of tubers compared to the control by up to 83.660%.
