The kinetics of phosphorus (P) desorption in soils is important from plant nutrition and environmental perspectives. An experiment was conducted on the field plots that received 100 t ha of solid dairy manure 1 (DM), sewage sludge (SS), or urban solid waste compost (UC) and one rate of chemical fertilizer (CF) for 1, 3 or 5 consecutive years to investigate the residual and cumulative effects of...

Organic fertilizer application is often touted as an economical and effective method to increase soil fertility. However, this amendment may increase dissolved organic carbon (DOC) runoff into downstream aquatic ecosystems and may consequently alter aquatic microbial community. We focused on understanding the effects of DOC runoff from soils amended with compost, vermicompost, or biochar on the...

introduction: citrus are one of the important orchard fruit production that after banana is second in production at the world level and every year, chemical fertilizers having most important role in increasing crops productions, but in long application of fertilizers cause soil destructions and polluting underground water. also soils of dry regions are very poor in organic matter level. nowaday...

qualitative and quantitative analyses of phyto- and zooplankton, and growth performance of cyprinus carpio linnaeus were done in earthen vats receiving compost, diammonium phosphate and vermicompost as direct application fertilizer were conducted. significant differences were observed in the diversity and abundance of plankton in response to fertilization. the highest production of fish was obt...

Problem statement: This experiment was carried out for study the effects of chemical and biological fertilizers and interaction between them on some physiological characteristic and yield and its components of seed corn in two different irrigation. Approach: The experiment was conducted in a split plot factorial with completely randomized block design using four replications. Sub plots consiste...

background & aim: thymus daenensis is recognized as aromatic herbs,   which used in food, flavoring, pharmaceutical, and perfumery industries. this   study was conducted to investigate the response of t.daenensis to   different fertilizers (chemical and organic) along with chitosan.  experimental:  treatments consisted of different fertilizers including: f1 =c (control without manure and fertil...

Bio-fertilizers are naturally occurring soil bacteria that aggressively colonize plant roots and benefit plants by providing growth promotion. This investigation was aimed at determining the effect of Nitroxin bio-fertilizer application on growth, inoculation and yield production of corn hybrids. An experiment was conducted as split plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with fou...
