Response of sweet pepper plants to foliar application of compost tea and dry yeast under soilless conditions

Abstract Background Sweet pepper is considered one of the most important vegetable crops cultivated for local consumption and exportation. Under greenhouse conditions, effects different rates yeast compost tea on vegetative growth, leaves mineral content, fruit yield quality were studied two consecutive years 2018/2019 2019/2020 under soilless conditions. Nine treatments (CT) or dry (DY) applied using control (sprayed with distilled water); CT (10L/fed.); (20 L/fed.); DY (3 g/L); (6 (10L/fed.) + (20L/fed.) g/L) g/L). Results showed that mixture at a rate 20 L./fed. plus 6 g/L, respectively, had significantly increased physical (length, diameter fresh weight), total yield, content (N, P K) nutritional value (calcium vitamin C). The maximum return profit comes from L/fed) followed by g/L.) Conclusion It clear all enhanced parameters plants as well are economically feasible including treatment. However, looking Revenue/Cost ratio (R/C), can find net revenue about 192.72 L.E./m 2 R/C 1.90, g/L.).
