The current study goal is to determine the influence of some organic fertilizers over the growth and the productive qualities of the glasshouse cucmbers grown as a substrate culture. The experimental work was conducted in non-heated glasshouse Venlo type in Maritza VCRI Plovdiv with Defense cucumber variety (EZ). Adding Humustim to the nutrition regime of the glasshouse cucumbers increases the first quality production (99550 kg/ha).The quantity of the yield from second quality was not influenced by the use of the studied fertilizing bioproducts. The treatment with Humustim did not significantly increase the total yield in comparison with the conventional fertilization but there was considerable higher influence over the productivity among the rest of the fertilizing bioproducts. As a result of adding the organic fertilizers to the nutrition regime the percentage distribution of the production from first quality was not increased.

Greenhouse Vegetable Production

AbstractOrganic farming seems to be a solution in environmentally sensitive zones such as the protection zone of Tahtalı Dam, which supplies fresh water to Izmir, the third largest city in Turkey. Greenhouse vegetable production is the major agricultural activity in this area (Menderes Township). However, due to the pollution risk from agriculture, governmental authorities have issued a regulation discouraging the use of chemicals within the collection basin of the dam. An on-farm project was conducted in 2001 to introduce organic greenhouse vegetable production in the Tahtalı Dam preservation area and to serve as a model for other areas in Turkey facing similar ecological problems. Two irrigation levels and four organic fertilizers were tested on the growth of cucumbers (Cucumis sativus cv. Sardes). The four fertilizers were two rates of farmyard and poultry manure (30 and 50 tons ha−1) with and without two organic fertilizers based on either bacteria or algae. During the growing period, pests and diseases were monitored weekly and preparations allowed in organic agriculture were used when necessary. Plant diseases did not create any significant problem, but the pest population, in particular spidermites, increased. No significant differences in cucumber yield were found between the fertilizer and irrigation treatments tested. However, it should be noted that yields from the addition of 30 tons ha−1 of farmyard or poultry manure and organic fertilizers were the same as those for 50 tons ha−1 of manure alone. The average total yield was 13 kg m−2, within an acceptable range for short-term crop production in this region, but 55% lower than a conventional substrate culture trial nearby. However, due to reduced production costs and a price premium for organic products, the organic produce yielded a net return of US$1.12–1.79 per m2 whereas that for conventional bag culture produce was US$0.55 per m2. Our results indicate that, under present conditions, organic greenhouse cucumber production has less environmental impact and is more economic than conventional bag culture, due to reduced chemical input and reduced operating and initial investment costs.

Sustainable agricultural development depends mainly on the recycling of organic wastes to reduce environmental pollution, as well as to reduce the use of mineral fertilizers. Expired milk products are rich in organic carbon and nitrogen, so they are good raw materials for making organic fertilizers. In this study, expired milk products were converted to organic fertilizer (EDPF) by gravity and thermal treatments. The extracted EDPF was used in the nutrition of Williams banana plants under field conditions for two growing seasons. The field experiment consisted of four treatments including: C = control without N fertilization, U = traditional urea, SRU = slow-release urea, and EDPF. EDPF significantly (p < 0.05) improved the growth and yield of Williams banana in comparison to U and SRU. EDPF significantly minimized the soil pH and increased the soil organic-C and cation exchange capacity compared to the other treatments. EDPF increased the total yield of bunches by 20% and 17% in the first and second years, respectively, above U and SRU. EDPF surpassed the traditional and slow-release urea in its ability to supply the banana plants with nitrogen. NH3-N loss from U, SRU, and EDPF reached 172, 132, and 100 kg N ha−1, respectively, which accounted for 34%, 26%, and 20% of the total added nitrogen. Nitrogen loss from the investigated treatments was in the order: U > SRU > EDPF > C. EDPF significantly reduced the ammonia volatilization compared to U and SRU by reducing the soil pH and increasing the soil organic matter. The dynamic of NH3 emissions not only depends on the nitrogen form but also on climatic conditions and concentrations of NH4+ in the soil solution. Protecting the ecosystem and maximizing the benefits of wastes utilization can be done through the recycling of expired dairy products to organic fertilizers.

The article presents studies on the influence of the microbiological product “Trichodermine”, bio-organic fertilizers and growth regulators based on humic acids „Nagro”, „Stimix”, „BioLife” and mineral fertilizers (NPK) on the biological activity of the soil, the degree of disease, caused by Alternaria capsici-annui Savul & Sandu and pepper yield in field production. It has been found that the differences in the "Soil Biological Activity" indicator depends on the number of micro-organisms, the composition (species diversity) and the percentage of major Micromycetes. Organic products help optimize soil health and reduce the total content of fungal colonies, and in the Micromycetes composition the fungus Trichoderma sp. is more common. When mineral fertilizers are introduced, the number of fungal pathogens and toxin producers increases. A higher total yield was obtained in variants with biological treatment. The increase in yield is between 9% and 29%.

Tetragonia Tetragonioides

The purpose of the experiment was to study the effect of salinity (NaCl) on growth, biomass production (total yield), mineral composition (macro- and micronutrient contents in leaves and the soil in which the plant is grown) of Tetragonia tetragonioides during the vegetation period. The experimental work was conducted in the greenhouse at the University of Lille 1, France, from 2 November 2015 to 25 January 2016. Three salinity treatments (T1 (50 mM NaCl), T2 (100 mM NaCl), T3 (200 mM NaCl)) and a control treatment (T0 (0 mM NaCl)) were applied. Analysis of the results showed that the total yield of the crop had low variation between the salinity treatments and the control treatment. The salt concentrations had an effect on the macro- and micronutrient contents in leaves and soil. In conclusion, T. tetragonioides exhibited good potential for use as a species to remove salt. This is the main important finding of this research.

Secondary Raw Materials

The paper discusses reserves of secondary raw materials, local organic fertilizers, and ameliorants (peat, sapropel, phosphogypsum, phosphorites, lignite coals, zeolites, gypsum, limestone) in the Republic of Bashkortostan. The effect of phosphogypsum and poultry manure on soil fertility and potato yields is studied. The use of gypsum to improve soil has been studied and used in agriculture and environmental restoration for many years. Most of the published literature is devoted to the influence of the use of gypsum on soil properties and not on yield. The paper presents the results of a field experiment on the use of phosphogypsum together with poultry waste, with detailed documentation of changes in the microelement composition of soils, the mode of precipitation, and the total yield after fertilizing. The results of the given work will be useful in determining gypsum application norms; there are also recommendations for future research on the use of gypsum for soil improvement. The yield improvement may be the result of an additive or synergistic effect; therefore, a meta-analysis of gypsum experiments is strongly recommended to improve recommendations for the use of gypsum in various environments. The optimal application rates of secondary raw materials are found. The soil humus сontent improves, and potato yield increases from 13.9 to 75.7 С/ha when phosphogypsum is applied separately and in combination with poultry litter. There is the nutritional value of the poultry manure, with the main elements as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Phosphogypsum is characterized with high content of strontium (14691 mg/kg) and rare earth elements (cerium – 1358 mg/kg, praseodymium – 123.9 mg/kg, neodymium – 418.5 mg/kg, samarium – 77.5 mg/kg, europium – 19.9 mg/kg, gadolinium – 58.9 mg/kg, terbium – 6.91 mg/kg and dysprosium – 25 mg/kg). The content of total element forms in phosphogypsum was determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (IPC-MS) using a VG Plasma Quad and Elan-6100 mass spectrometer.
