Clay–organic complexes (COC) impart chemical and physical protection to soil carbon (C). In the present study, aim was assess long-term effects of different organic amendments on C stability in COC, distribution aggregates, concentration aggregates labile fractions inceptisols located at research farm situated semi-arid sub-tropical climate India. The results showed that percentage large macroa...

Cotton stalks, remaining after the cotton is harvested, are considered waste material and disposed of by burning. Presently, supply good quality manure, such as farmyard manure (FYM) low. Thus, recycling stalks compost can reduce dependency on FYM apart from reducing inorganic fertilizer use soil health enhancement. Some studies have reported conversion ginnery wastes into organic manure. Howev...

The study was conducted to determine the interactive effects of biochar application in combination with farm yard manure (FYM) and nitrogen (N) fertilizer on soil organic matter (SOM) and mineral nitrogen at Agricultural Research Farm of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Agricultural University Peshawar in 2010-2011. Soil samples at 0-15 cm depth were collected from maize and mungbean plots at harvest stage (...

Fertilization, either in the form of organic or inorganic, always affects plant growth, yield, and nutritional quality fruit crops. Further, efficacy fertilizers depends on various factors, including area, climatic conditions, cultivars. Rawalakot has ideal conditions for growing strawberries. However, no studies related to impact different soil amendments growth habit strawberries have been co...

The ecology of cellulolytic bacteria in bulk soil is still relatively unknown. There only a handful papers on the abundance and diversity this group bacteria. Our study aimed to determine impact various crop management systems farmyard manure (FYM) fertilization potentially spore-forming (SCB). site was nearly 100-year-old experiment, one oldest active field trials Europe. highest contents tota...

Abstract Cotton crop, plays a significant role in Pakistan’s economy by ruling prominent place edible oil and local textile industry. Phosphorus (P) inaccessibility deficiency of soil organic matter are the key restraints for low crop productivity cotton. Therefore, two years field study was designed during 2014-15, to explore influence phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB), farmyard manure (FY...

Traditional mulch material (farmyard manure) has long been used in agriculture. However, recent developments have also introduced the scientific community and farmers to advanced chemicals such as potassium polyacrylamide (KPAM), which revolutionised concept of soil water-holding capacity many compared with other materials being used. To compare effect different organic inorganic amendment unde...

In the current study, we evaluated impacts of organic and chemical fertilizers as well foliar application growth regulators on quantitative traits seed oil content safflower grown in northwestern Iran. The experiment was done a split-plot (3 ? 5), main plot assigned to different fertilizers, including fertilizer (FYM: farmyard manure 20 t ha-1), full (FCF) no fertilization ?control? (NF). sub-p...

The Westsik’s long-term crop rotation experiment was set up in 1929 at the Nyíregyháza Experimental Station (NE Hungary) on a slightly acidic Arenosol. Besides fallow (CR), effects of different organic amendments (lupine as green manure, lupine main crop, straw and farmyard manure (FYM) were studied with or without N NPK-fertilizers. consisted rye, potato, lupine, oat common vetch. soil potato ...

Integrating farmyard manure (FYM) and legume intercropping improves soil chemical microbial properties, thereby increasing forage productivity nutritional value. The purpose of this study was to evaluate how fertilizer treatments affected the composition, in vitro gas production organic matter digestibility (IVOMD), volatile fatty acid (VFA) Napier desho grasses upper Blue Nile basin Ethiopia. ...
