BACKGROUND: Soil nutrition management is an important factor, which determines the plant growth. Soil fertility is determined by the presence or absence of nutrients i.e. macro and micronutrients, which are required in optimum level for crop. OBJECTIVES: Evaluate the effect different amount of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers in maize field under sugarcane ...

Two field experiments were carried out during the winter seasons of 2000/2001 and 2001/2002 at the Agricultural Experimental Station (at Abeis) Alexandria University, to investigate the response of globe artichoke plants cv. French, to the inoculation with Halex2 and Microbein biofertilizers under varying N levels (0, 45, 90 and 135 kg N fed -1 ). The results indicated that increasing N applied...

Background: Basil (Ocimum basilicum L.), a member of the Lamiaceae family, has traditionally been used as a medicinal plant in the treatment of headaches, coughs, diarrhea, constipation, warts, worms, and kidney malfunctions. Objective: To investigate the foliar application effects of bio-stimulators and bio-fertilizers on morphological and phytochemical traits of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.). ...

This research was aimed at assessing the fertilizer quality and public health implications of using digestate biofertilizer from the anaerobic digestion of food wastes and human excreta. Twelve (12) kg of food wastes and 3kg of human excreta were mixed with water in a 1:1 w/v to make 30-l slurry that was fed into the anaerobic digester to ferment for 60days at mesophilic temperature (22-31°C). ...

BACKGROUND: Super absorbent polymers (SAP) by increasing the capacity of water storage and nutrition materials, reduction of wasting water and evaporation from the surface of soil improve crop production under water stress condition. Bio-fertilizers have the significant advantages to chemical fertilizers; for instance, they do not produce toxic and bacterial substances in the f...

considering the importance of medicinal plants growth and biological application of fertilizers with sustainable agricultural production in order to eliminate or reduce chemical input to achieve desirable and sustainable quality, an experimental research was  conducted based on a randomized complete block design with two factors of chemical nitrogen (46% urea nitrogen) at  two levels (zero, 25 ...

in order to evaluate the effects of different plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) on yield and yield components of sesame, an experiment was conducted in the form of randomized complete block design with three replications at research station, faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad in year 2009. treatments were: 1) nitragin (containing of azotobacter sp., azospirillum sp...

abstract in order to evaluate the effects of biofertilizers on yield and morphological characters in dragonhead, an experiment based on randomized complete block design with four replications was conducted in 2008. treatments were nitroxin, biological phosphorus, biosulfur, nitroxin+biological phosphorus, biological phosphorus+ biosulfur, nitroxin+ biosulfur, nitroxin+biological phosphorus+ bio...

Beneficial microorganisms are found in biofertilizers, which can assist boosting the soil's availability of N, P, and K promote plant growth. This study aims to ascertain impact optimal combination biofertilizer fertilizers for sweet corn yields, total bacteria, humic acid, C-organic yields. With 1 control treatment, 2 doses fertilizer, 6 combinations fertilizer biofertilizer, method used Rando...
