   A biological experiment was carried out for the purpose of knowing the effect of the type of organic matter, source and level of phosphorous on the growth and yield of corn (Zea mays L.) in gypsum soil.  The experiment was carried out in one of the agricultural fields in Salah al-Din Governorate / Al-Alam district in the year 2019. The study included three factors (type of organic fertilizer, phosphorous source and phosphorous level).  The factor included the type of organic fertilizer (not adding Z, compost K and sheep waste S), while the second factor included the source of phosphate fertilizer (Triple super phosphate T, diammonium phosphate D), and the third factor included phosphorous levels (0, 90, 180 and 270) kg P ha-1.  The experiment was carried out in three replications according to a randomized complete block design (RCBD).  Sheep manure outperformed compost in all growth and yield traits, and diammonium phosphate fertilizer outperformed Triple le super phosphate, and the level (270) kg P ha-1 was superior to the rest of the addition levels in all growth and yield traits. The interaction between sheep manure and diammonium phosphate fertilizer at the level of addition (270) kg P ha-1 gave the highest average in the dry weight of the vegetative mass after 45 and 75 days of planting, it reached (55.50 and 130.81) gm plant-1, respectively, Chlorophyll content in leaves (52.80) SPAD and grain yield reached (8119) kg ha-1.

With increased pressure on cropping land, traditional soil fertility regeneration has become less effective. Farmers with no alternatives would therefore be compelled to cultivate on marginal lands, highly risking crop failure and food security. Soil fertility can be improved by employing Agroforestry principles of incorporating organic inputs into the soil. This study investigated the effects of leaf mulch of Gliricidia sepium, Senna siamea and Leucaena leucocephala and their combination with inorganic fertilizer on maize (Zea mays L) growth and yield. The study was conducted in a randomized completely block design at the Faculty of Renewable Natural Resource farm, KNUSTGhana. Fresh leaf biomass at 5 t ha]1 weight was incorporated into the soil and compared with the addition of inorganic fertilizer at 0, 30 and 60 kg N ha Â]1 levels. Soil laboratory analysis showed that the mineral content of the leaf biomass varied with L. leucocephala having the highest N content and S. siamea having the lowest N content. The addition of the different levels of the inorganic fertilizer to the leaf biomass significantly influenced the yield of maize. Combining leaf biomass of S. siamea, G. sepium and L. leucocephala with inorganic fertilizer significantly increased maize yield and can be recommended for improving maize and other crop production.
