<em>This study aims to determine the effect of the interaction of cow state fertilizer and Mutiara NPK to plant growth and production of purple eggplant on alluvial soil in polybags. This research was conducted on Karet Street, West Pontianak District, West Kalimantan Province with an altitude of ± 1 meter above sea level. This research was conducted from March 25 to July 2, 2021. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with a factorial pattern consisting of 2 factors. The first factor is cow state fertilizer (S) with 3 levels, namely s<sub>1</sub> = 40 grams/polybag, s<sub>2</sub> = 60 grams/polybag and s<sub>3</sub> = 80 grams/polybag. The second factor is Mutiara NPK fertilizer (N) with 3 levels, namely n<sub>1</sub> = 1,2 grams/polybag, n<sub>2</sub> = 1,6 grams/polybag and n<sub>3</sub> = 2 grams/polybag. The number of treatments in this study was 9 treatment combinations and each treatment consisted of 3 times. Each replication consisted of 3 plant samples, so the total number of plant samples was 81 plants. The variables observed in this study were plant height (cm), number of leaves per plant (strands), number of fruits per plant (fruit), and fruit weight per plant (grams). The results showed that cow state fertilizer treatment had a significant effect on the number of leaves per plant, a very significant effect on fruit weight per plant, and no significant effect on the number of plants and fruit per plant. Mutiara NPK fertilizer treatment had a significant effect on fruit weight per plant and had no significant effect on plant height, number of leaves per plant, and number of fruit per plant. The interaction of cow state fertilizer and Mutiara NPK had a significant effect on fruit weight per plant and had no significant effect on plant height, number of leaves per plant, and number of fruit per plant.</em>

Experiments were carried out in the Nursery of the Department of Forestry and Environmental Management, the Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike in Abia State during 2016 and 2017 cropping seasons to determine  the effect of NPK fertilizer on the growth performance of three selected crops, Zea mays, Abelmoschus esculentus and Vigna unguiculata grown on a derelict kaolin mined soil. The experiment comprised of treatment pots which has three rates of fertilizer on the kaolin soil each (kaolin soil +NPK (40 kg), kaolin soil + NPK (30 kg) and kaolin soil + NPK (20 kg) kaolin soil with zero treatment (Control 2) and a control 1(un-mined) soil, it was replicated three in Complete Randomized Design (CRD). Parameters assessed include Plant height (cm) and the number of leaves weekly for six (6) weeks. Data were analysed using ANOVA at p< 0.05. The result obtained showed that growth performance of the test crops was positively affected by NPK treatment based on the quantity applied with the highest recorded height (16.50) and the number of the leaf (11.27) in Kaolin mined soil combined with 40 kg of fertilizer when compared with the control. Plant height obtained with various fertilizer treatments were in the order: 16.50>15.99>14.65 and 11.27>10.20>9.01 for the number of leaves. The result of the macro element levels in the plants showed that the nutrient uptake and accumulation were enhanced by both NPK fertilizer and the quantity added with the highest level of nutrient on the plants obtained in Kaolin soil combined with 40kg of NPK fertilizer. The study showed that kaolin mined degraded soil can be put into good use with the appropriate concentration of fertilizer treatment, thus putting more degraded land under agricultural production and ensuring food security is developing country like Nigeria. The study further suggests a sensitization program for farmers on the appropriate concentration of inorganic fertilizer to be applied to their farmers to avoid pollution.

Nitrogen is a major nutrient for plant growth, nitrogen was absorbed by plant roots in the form of NO3-(nitrate) and NH4+ (ammonium). Nitrogen deficiency affects negatively on plants, like stunted plant, leaf turns yellow, and limited rooting system, while excess nitrogen causes elongated vegetative growth, easy to fall down, reduce the grain quality and its response to pests and diseases. The purpose of this study is to determine the available soil-N, plant N uptake and growth as well as the yield of paddy rice (Oryza sativa L) due to the treatment of straw compost and NPK fertilizer. Treatment was carried out in a factorial experiment designed in randomized block design, the straw compost factor consisted of  two dose levels: 0 and 3.0 ton ha-1 and NPK fertilizer factor consisted of five dose levels: 0, 75, 150, 225, and 300 kg ha-1 with three replications. Research findings indicated that the amendment of straw compost together with NPK fertilizer increased the plant uptake of N, but straw compost improved independently the soil-N, and plant growth (plant height and number of tillers/clump). Likewise, NPK fertilizer independently increased soil-N, growth parameter (plant height and number of tillers/clump) and grain yield (number of grains/panicle and number of filled grain/panicle). The straw compost amendment at 3 tons ha-1 along with 150 kg NPK ha-1 resulted the highest N-uptake of 3.51%.

To determine the effect of Organic-based Fortified Foliar Fertilizer (OFF) on the growth and yield of ‘Lakatan’ banana, this study was conducted at the University of Southeastern Philippines, Tagum – Mabini Campus, Mabini Unit, Mampising, Mabini, Compostela Valley Province, from December 2015 to March 2016.          The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with six treatments replicated three times. The treatments were: T1- control; T2- Recommended Rate of NPK fertilizer/ha; T3 - ½ RR of NPK/ha; T4 –Organic-based Fortified Foliar fertilizer (OFF) at 100 ml/16 liters of water; T5 - ½ RR of NPK + OFF; and T6 - RR of NPK + OFF. Results showed that no significant effects were observed in terms of the plant height at 15, 30, 45 days after application (DAA), pseudostem girth at 15, 30, 45 DAA, and number of hands per bunch. However, significant differences were obtained in the number of leaves, number of fingers per bunch, fruit weight (kg) and yield (tons/ha) of ‘Lakatan’ banana. The highest number of leaves were obtained in T6 – RR of NPK fertilizer/ha + OFF which is comparable to T5 – ½ RR of NPK fertilizer/ha + OFF. T6 – RR of NPK+ OFF also had the highest number of fingers per hand than the rest of the treatments as much as 21% higher than the control. The fruit weight of T6 – RR of NPK+ OFF has 61% higher than untreated and the yield of 37 tons/ha is higher than the national average yield of 9.4 tons/ha in ‘Lakatan’ banana.

This study was carried out at Subarna Agro-Based Initiative’s (SABI) field, Noakhali, Bangladesh during the period of Rabi Season, 2018. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the growth and yield performances of okra in different types of organic fertilizers and to identify the possible fertilizer treatment which enhances both growth and yield of okra [Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Monech] .BARI Okra-1 was taken for the study. A Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) was used and there were 4 treatments namely; Farm Yard Manure (T1), Vermi-Compost (T2), FYM + Vermi-Compost (T3) and Integrated Nutrient Management (T4) were replicated three times. Plant height (cm), number of leaves, total flower, total number of fruits, fruit length (cm) and fruit weight (g) data were taken as parameters on the growth and yield of the plant. Though fruit weight was observed higher for the effect of T3 (72.78 g) but in case of Integrated Nutrient Management (T4) the other characters such as plant height, number of leaves, total flowers, total number of fruits, fruit length were observed higher. The T4 showed a comparatively better result of growth and yield than other treatments. This study clearly indicated that Integrated Nutrient Management which contains the micronutrients with minimum inorganic and organic manure may be a potential source for better growth and high yield in okra.
