Plants nutrients supply from the chemical fertilizer is the key to increasing agriculture production by enhancing the land productivity. However, the demand-supply gap of fertilizers in India has increased in recent times, thereby leading to increased dependency on imports .India imports which were about 2 million tonnes in early parts of 2000 increased to 10.2 million tonnes of fertilizers in ...

BACKGROUND Radionuclides in the phosphate fertilizers belonging to (232)Th and (238)U and (40) K are the major contributors to the outdoor terrestrial natural radiation. These radionuclides are transferred from fertilizer to food through soil. MATERIALS AND METHODS Present work deals with the alpha activity in the different parts of the potato (Solanum Tuberosum) plants grown under controlled...

The Cobb-Douglas production function assisted in answering the...

Increasing demand for more jujube (Ziziphus jujube Mill.) production requires understanding the specific fertilization needs of jujube trees. This study was conducted to compare fruit yields, phenolic profiles and antioxidant activity of jujube in response to different fertilizers. Application of organic fertilizer appeared to enhance the phenolics and antioxidant activity accumulation of jujub...

In many parts of the world food security is at risk. One of the biophysical root causes of falling per-capita food production is the declining quality and quantity of soils. To reverse this trend and increase soil fertility soil and plant nutrients have to be replenished. This review provides a literature survey of experiences of using multi-nutrient rock fertilizers for soil fertility enhancem...

In the contemporary era, excessive use of chemical fertilizers in areas where strawberries are intensively cultivated disrupts balance nature and reduces economic efficiency. Therefore, using organic biofertilizers sustainable agriculture can solve these problems. The effect fertilizer other treatments on yield, quality, plant growth Monterey strawberry variety was investigated. Solid farm manu...

A field experiment was carried out at SCDA Pitești, on an Albic Luvisol with a 25.0-25.2% clay content, soy crop, Raluca TD variety. Seeds were treated Bradyrhizobiumjaponicum, the density 45-50 germinable grains/m2, and distance between rows 50 cm. Fertilizers applied during vegetation cycle as follows: Dual 1 liter/ha, Décor 0,5 liters/ha, Pulsar liter/ha. The experimental design included 12 ...

Background: This study of the large-flowered azalea cv. ‘Anneke’ investigated impact two factors, i.e., methods fertilization and mycorrhization, on nutritional status plants during three years nursery cultivation. Methods: Single mineral fertilizers, a slow-release fertilizer Hortiform pH (SRF), fertigation in combination with mycorrhization plants, were applied. Plant roots inoculated fungi f...

Introduction Interest in organic production methods for vegetables continues to increase. Production practices for organic field production of vegetables have a long history, but practices to grow organic vegetable transplants in a spring greenhouse are poorly known. Organic fertilizers and composts are available but the efficacy and rates for use have not been evaluated. Experiments in the sum...
