Abstract The research objective was to make a formula for economical complex soil conditioner of bio-organo mineral for tea, coffee and cacao plantations. The soil conditioner (SC) formula for such plantations was made by mixing the urea, phosphate, leucite and kieserite with the ratio of 25:7:12:3. The experiments at Block B5 showed the amount of harvested dormant leaves was 3.37 kg/100 m2 while the control yielded 2.29 kg/100 m2. There is a difference around 1.08 kg/100 m2 or 47%. The amount of Peko shoots was 19.82 g/100 m2 when using the soil conditioner while the control had 14.89 g/100 m2 performing the difference 33% while at Block A10, the amount of harvested dormant shoot was 3.53 kg/100 m2. There is a difference around 3.29 kg/100m2 or 7%. The amount of Peko shoot was 18.25 g/100 m2 while the control acquiesced 15,05 g/100m2 – the difference of both was 21%. The Robusta grew from 25.4 cm to 28.5 cm when using the BIOM-SC. but the plant height is only from 24.4 cm to 26.8 when using NPK fertilizer.

Abstract The Guinea savannah zone of Nigeria is beset by increasing population and infrastructural development, thereby putting pressure on available land with rapidly declining fertility due to low organic matter content, soil erosion, high temperature and seasonal bush burning. Sesame is cultivated in this zone and the yield has remained very low, compared to yield in other parts of the world. This could be attributed to poor nutrient status and poor cultural practices used by peasant farmers. A field experiment was conducted at the Teaching and Research Farm, University of Ilorin, Nigeria, in a southern Guinea savannah zone in 2015 and repeated in 2016 cropping season to determine the effects of 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), a plant growth regulator and NPK fertilizer on the growth and yield of sesame. The experiment was laid out as a factorial arrangement, fitted into a randomized complete block design replicated thrice. The factors imposed were 2,4-D (0, 5 and 10 ppm ha−1) and NPK 15:15:15 (0, 100, 200 and 300 kg ha−1). Data were collected on vegetative traits (plant height, number of leaves, leaf area) and yield components (number of capsules per plant; yield per plant and per hectare). The data were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) using the Genstat statistical package 17th edition and significant means were separated by using the least significant difference at 5% level of probability. The result revealed that using plant growth regulator and NPK fertilizer had significant effects (p<0.05) on plant height (151 cm) and yield per hectare (530 kg/ha). The qualitative and quantitative analysis of the seeds further reaffirmed the presence of bioactive compounds, such as saponins, tannins, flavonoids and phenolic compounds, which are important health promoting food in the seeds.

Relative water usage of four species of container-grown woody ornamental shrubs (Buxus japonica (Japenese boxwood), Leucophyllum frutescens (Texas sage), Ligustrum japonica (ligustrum) and Pittosporum tobira wheeleri (dwarf) pittosporurm)), normally used for home landscaping in south Texas, were evaluated by comparing water consumption and frequency of watering with growth rates and horticultural quality after six months growth in containers. Growth rates were determined by the difference in plant height and leaf area from the control unwatered plants and were used to characterize the suitability of ornamental shrubs for xeric landscapes. While frequency of watering had no significant effects on plant height, only ligustrum and dwarf pittosporum plants watered on weekly basis showed positive change in leaf area. There was considerable leaf regrowth in Texas sage plants after initial leaf loss. Of all the shrubs tested, dwarf pittosporum plants watered biweekly used less water to maintain their horticultural quality.
