Soil fertility can be potentially improved and degradation retarded by replacing some of the chemical fertilizer with bio-fertilizer (BF). To optimize such change, BF was applied at substitution ratios 0% (BF0), 30% (BF30), 50% (BF50), 70% (BF70), 100% (BF100) in a field experiment 2018 2019. organic carbon (C) contents, stability, C contents aggregate fractions were determined 0–20 cm layer.

Liquid animal manure and its management contributes to environmental problems such as, global warming, acidification, and eutrophication. To address these environmental issues and their related costs manure processing technologies were developed. The objective here was to assess the environmental consequences of a new manure processing technology that separates manure into a solid and liquid fr...

Most agricultural crops cultivated in Brazil are highly nutrient demanding. Brazilian soils are generally acidic with low base saturation and available nutrients. Demand for fertilizer application has increased because the national agricultural sector expansion. To improve productivity without environmental impact, there is the need for the utilization of novel procedures and techniques to opti...

Panama disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense infection on banana is devastating banana plantations worldwide. Biological control has been proposed to suppress Panama disease, though the stability and survival of bio-control microorganisms in field setting is largely unknown. In order to develop a bio-control strategy for this disease, 16S rRNA gene sequencing was used to assess th...

to evaluate the effect of drought stress, biofertilizer and chemical phosphorus fertilizer on yield and seed protein percentage of two lentil cultivars, an experiment was conducted in split factorial based on crbd design with 4 replications in research farm of university of tehran (karaj-iran) during 2009-10. the main factor including three irrigation levels (irrigation after 70, 90 and 130 mm ...

Trichoderma bio-fertilizer is widely used to improve soil fertility and carbon (C) sequestration, but the mechanism for increasing C accumulation remains unclear. In this study, effects of on mineralization aggregate-associated organic were investigated in a field experiment with five treatments (bio-fertilizer substitute 0 (CF), 10% (BF10), 20% (BF20), 30% (BF30) 50% (BF50) chemical fertilizer...

In order to investigate the appropriate combination of chemical and bio-fertilizers and their effectiveness on corn seed yield while defoliating the upper leaves of the ear, a randomized complete block design experiment with four replications. Fertilizer treatments were applied at four levels including 100% urea, 75% urea + 100% Nitroxin, 50% urea + 100% Nitroxin, 25% urea + 100% Nitroxin. In h...
