A field study was conducted to determine the effect of organic and mineral-based fertilizers on phytochemical contents in the tubers of two cassava varieties. Treatments were arranged in a split plot design with three replicates. The main plot was fertilizer source (vermicompost, empty fruit bunch compost and inorganic fertilizer) and sub-plot was cassava variety (Medan and Sri Pontian). The am...

different resource of fertilizers had an effect on grain yield, oil and grain quality. information regarding the effect of simultaneous application of organic, chemical and biological fertilizers on canola (brassica napus l.) traits is not available. in order to study the effect of different systems of soil fertility on grain yield and quality of canola (talayeh cultivar), an experiment was con...

Organic waste materials are being used in huge amounts (tons ha) for improving soil health and crop yields. Recycling of organic wastes enriched with nitrogen and L-tryptophan (L-TRP) could convert organic waste material into a useful soil amendment, which may be effective even when added in substantially small amounts (kg ha). Organic waste material of fruits and vegetables was collected and s...

introduction in agricultural ecosystems, organic fertilizers play an important role in producing sustainable agricultural production. considering this sajjadi nik et al (2011) reported that with increasing of vermicompost inoculation with nitroxin biofertilizer, capsule number per sesame plant increased, so that the most of capsule number per plant (124.7) was observed in 10 t/h vermicompost wi...

in order to find out suitable organic fertilizers for elimination of chemical fertilizers usage and the optimum sowing date in pot marigold cultivation, an experiment was conducted in the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, in 2007 growing season. for this purpose a split plot experiment based on completely randomized block design with three replications was use...

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...

to evaluate the effects of organic, chemical and integrated fertilizers on yield and yield components of turnip (brassica rapa) an experiment was conducted in research farm of college of agriculture, university of tehran, iran, during 2009 - 2010 growing season. the treatments were arranged as randomized complete blocks design with three replications and fifteen different fertilization systems....

Fertilization plays an important role in crop growth and soil improvement. This study was conducted to determine the best fertilization system for wheat production. Experiments were arranged in a complete block design with three replications in two years. Main plots consisted of six methods of fertilization including (N1): farmyard manure; (N2): compost; (N3): chemical fertilizers; (N4): farmya...
