more nitrogen use efficiency in crops is important for maintaining and developing sustainable agriculture. in order to study the effect of different levels of mushroom compost and different resource of nitrogen on yield, yield attributes and nitrogen use efficiency of wheat (triticum aestivum l.), an experiment was conducted at faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, durin...

Understanding how carbon, nitrogen, and key soil attributes affect gas emissions from soil is crucial for alleviating their undesirable residual effects that can linger for years after termination of manure and compost applications. This study was conducted to evaluate the emission of soil CO2, N2O, and CH4 and soil C and N indicators four years after manure and compost application had stopped....

The present research was conducted to mitigate the environmental contamination and with the aim of evaluating the possible impacts of the application of sugarcane bagasse sewage sludge-based compost (BSC), vermicompost, and fish compost on different aspects of physiology, growth, and development of Lilliumlongiflorum var Ceb-Dazzle. The bulbs were planted in four different prepared soil mixture...

introduction and aim: sennai (cassia angustifolia vahl) is one of the valuable plants which used to constipation treatment. production of organic plants is one of the goals of medicinal plant production, this is possible with the application of bio-fertilizers. in the past decades due to the use of chemical fertilizers numerous environmental impacts, including soil and water pollution problems ...

Among the aquatic weeds, water hyacinth is considered to be the most obnoxious of all aquatic weeds and occupies eighth rank in the world. Water hyacinth caused lot of problems to human beings and animals in many ways. The present study is therefore aimed to develop an appropriate technology for recovery of resources from aquatic weeds by pit methods of composting. Compost was prepared from aqu...

present study determines not only the total amounts of metals (cr, cu and pb) in superficial agricultural soil of sistan area in eastern iran, but also the chemical partitioning of these elements in seven statistically selected cases. the analysis was run for local soil, soil treated by non-contaminated organic, compost and chemical fertilizers as well as soil treated by metal-contaminated fer...

Growing fruit trees on the slopes of rolling hills in South China was causing serious environmental problems because of heavy application of chemical fertilizers and soil erosion. Suitable sources of fertilizers and proper rates of applications were of key importance to both crop yields and environmental protection. In this article, the impact of four fertilizers, i.e., inorganic compound ferti...

The objective of this work was to study the effect of sewage sludge compost on ammonia and nitrate accumulation in the olive-grove soil. This study has been conducted since 1998. To evaluate sewage sludge compost on soil-grove four treatments were set up in a clay loam soil in Seseña (Toledo, Spain). Every experiment was replicated four times. The applied treatments were sewage sludge compost (...
