in the recent years, increasing production of waste as a result of population growth, increased food consumption, industrial development and urbanization growth, is regarded as a serious challenge. vermicompost, as an end product of urban waste recycling with proper physicochemical features, can play an effective role in plant growth and development and also in reducing harmful effects of vario...

introduction: vermicompost is one of the important bio-fertilizer which is the product of the process of composting different organic wastes such as manures and crop residues using different earthworms. vermicomposts, especially those are derived from animal wastes,contain the large amounts of nutrients compaired with the composts prepared from crop residues. vermicomposts contain plant availab...

BACKGROUND: Vermicompost has many characteristics such as high porosity, ventilation and proper drainage, high moisture absorption and maintenance power, high uptake level for water and food stuffs, and its use in sustainable agriculture is very useful to improve soil porosity and thus more availability of nutrient elements required by plants. Manure plays an important role in ...

organic compost can reduce various plant stresses, because of its porous structure, high water storage capacity, and existence of some substances resembling hormones and plant growth regulators. this study was performed to investigate interactions of different levels of vermicompost extract and salinity stress on morphological characteristics of bean seedlings. the experiment was conducted in c...

in this research, effect of vermicompost and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) on physiological traits of lemon balm under drought stress condition was investigated in year 2012 at karaj research institute of forest and rangelands. experiment was conducted as split-split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications. irrigation (normal: irrigated to field capacity...

two separate experiments were carried out with the aim of investigating the effect of vermicompost and its aqueous extracts on traits related to germination and growth of tomato varieties, (mobil and superorbina). in the first experiment, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10 and 100% extracts of vermicompost (v - v) along with control (distilled water) were studied on germination of two varieties of...

A field experiment was carried out throughout Zaid season 2022 on the research farm of Department Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, SHUATS, Prayagraj, to examine variations in physicochemical properties soil yield maize, as affected by levels NPK vermicompost eastern part Uttar Pradesh. The at test site sandy loam texture is located 25024’30’’ North latitude, 81051’10” East longitude, ab...
