Vigna unguiculata subsp sesquipedalis L. also known as string beans/pole sitao is one of the major vegetable crop produced in Philippines all year round because its adaptability to types soils except for saline soil. Thus, response soil amended with vermicompost was determined. Growth and yield pole applied varying amount obtained. Level nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium pH were tested before aft...

damping-off disease of cucumber caused by soil-born fungi pythium aphanidermatum is one of the most destructive diseases of cucumber. in this research, the effect of three bio-fertilizers including; nitroxin, mycorrhiza and vermicompost in single and combined form on induced resistance and yield components in greenhouse cucumber (es-2862) infected with damping-off disease was investigated. thes...

The study was aimed at understanding the effect of vermicompost on the growth and yield of Capsicum annum . The main aim of this investigation was focused on the assessment of the potency of selected earthworm species Eudrilus eugeniae with respect to their biodegradation of Lady’s finger waste into organic manure known as vermicompost. The present study has been carried out to estimate macro a...

The main objective of this study was to determine the effects of vermicompost and amino acids on the qualitative and quantitative yield of chamomile. The experiment was conducted during the growing season of 2010 at the Alborz Medical Research Center. The Treatment groups consisted of vermicompost (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 tons/ha) and the sprays of amino acids (budding stag, flowering stage, and bu...

introduction: application of organic fertilizers in agricultural soils with low organic matter content is one of the best ways of nutrientsaddition to these soils. different organic fertilizers have different effects on nutrient availability in soil. moreover study of the distribution of nutrients in the soil allows investigating their mobility and bioavailability. the nutrients availability an...

Increasing attention is being paid to use of organic fertilizers such as manure and vermicompost which can increased yield and protect the environment. Replacing chemical fertilizers with manures has the benefit of low production cost and imparts beneficial effects on soil. Then an experiment was conducted during 2013 to measure effects of organic fertilizers on essential oil of dill (Anethum g...

in this study, the effect of hole mulching application of zn and mn on acacia, elm, and plane nutrition was examined in the green spaces of isfahan. three different sites were chosen in a randomized complete block design using six treatments of: 1. cow manure compost, 2. cow manure vermicompost, 3. urban waste compost, 4. urban waste vermicompost, 5. dug hole refilled with the same soil coming ...

This experiment was designed to characterize the physical, chemical and microbial properties of a standard commercial horticultural, greenhouse container, bedding plant medium (Metro-Mix 360), that had been substituted with a range of increasing concentrations (0%, 5%, 10%, 25%, 50% and 100% by volume) of pig manure vermicompost and to relate these properties to plant growth responses. The grow...

Instrumental analysis of vermicompost with the help of modern technologies provides essential information on its maturity, before it can be used for agricultural application. Nowadays, vermicompost is considered as a promising organic alternative to chemical fertilizers in agriculture and horticulture. The objectives of this review are to summarize the sophisticated instrumental techniques such...
