Growth, Yield and Yield Characteristics of Three Pepper Cultivars to Fertilizers Application in the Mount Cameroon Region

This study determined the effects of organic and inorganic fertilizers on growth yield three pepper cultivars in Mount Cameroon Region. Pepper seedlings were treated with six treatments (T1 = no (control), T2 250 Kg/ha NPK 20:10:10, T3 350 T4 450 T5 20 Mg/ha poultry manure (PM), T6 30 PM).
