The antimicrobial activity of 12 plant extracts was tested against the phytopathogens Alternaria alternata and Fusarium solani. In addition, the compatibility of the extracts toward Bacillus liqueniformis, a biofertilizer and a non-target microorganism, was assessed. Plants tested belong to the Euphorbiaceae, Asteraceae, Crassulaceae, Rubiaceae, Convolvulaceae, Verbenaceae, Orchidaceae, Nyctagi...

BACKGROUND Dairy effluents contains high organic load and unscrupulous discharge of these effluents into aquatic bodies is a matter of serious concern besides deteriorating their water quality. Whilst physico-chemical treatment is the common mode of treatment, immobilized microalgae can be potentially employed to treat high organic content which offer numerous benefits along with waste water tr...

intercropping is considered as a method for increasing yield per unit and stability. in order to evaluate the effects of phosphorous biofertilizer and chemical phosphorous on fodder quality of corn (zea mays l.) and grass pea (lathyrus sativa l.) intercropping, two field experiments were conducted as factorial based on randomized complete block design with four replications at two places simult...

ABSTRACT Irrigation water salinity can cause serious problems in crop production, while organic fertilizer sources potentially mitigate saline stress. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the productivity of maize crops under irrigation with and fertilization. The was conducted field from August November 2020 at experimental farm Universidade da Integração Internacional Lusofonia Afro-Brasileira ...

Chemical fertilizers primarily focus on providing a few essential nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK), neglecting other micronutrients required for healthy plant growth. This imbalance can lead to nutrient deficiencies in plants subsequently the food produced. Contributing better security improved nutrition growing population, these organic manures biofertilizers provide...

introduction safflower) carthamus tinctorius l.) is a tolerant plant to water deficit due to long roots and capability for high water absorption from soil deeper parts. safflower can growth successfully in regions with low soil fertility and temperature. behdani and mosavifar (2011) reported that drought stress affect on yield by reducing yield components and agronomic traits. biofertilizer dur...
