A field experiment was conducted to determine the effect of combined application of fortified poultry manure with ash and NPK fertilizer on the performance of sakanal onions (Allium cepa L.) variety during 2018/2019 dry season in Chimola (Gwadabawa LGA) and Wurno (Wurno LGA), Sokoto State. The treatments consisted of three (3) levels combination of fortified poultry manure with ash (1:3 ratio) at 5, 10 and 15t ha-1 and three (3) levels of NPK at 30, 45 and 60kg ha-1 which were combined and laid-out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) replicated three (3) times. Sakanal onion variety was used as a test crop. The data generated were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) procedure for RCBD using SPSS version 23.0. The results revealed that fortified poultry manure with ash and NPK fertilizer significantly (P<0.05) affected Growth and yield parameters such as plant height (71 - 62 cm), number of leaves (8), fresh bulb yield (70t ha-1), crop growth rate (1.52g cm-1) in Chimola and Wurno. Individual bulb weight (300g), bulb diameter (7.8cm) were significantly (P<0.05) affected in Wurno location. Cured buld yield (55t ha-1) responds significantly (P<0.05) to the application of fortified poultry manure with ash and NPK fertilizer in Chimola location. The result of the study revealed that application of fortified poultry manure with ash and NPK fertilizer (P15NPK3) significantly improved the performance and shelf-life of sakanal onion variety and physical and chemical properties of the soils in the study area.

The experiment was carried out at the Field Laboratory, Department of Environmental Science, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during the period of March, 2012 to July, 2012 to evaluate the effect of fertilizer and manure on the growth and yield of Tulsi and Pudina. There were six treatments consisting of control (No fertilizer and manures), cowdung, poultry manure, cowdung+ NPK fertilizer, poultry manure+ NPK fertilizer and Mixed fertilizer. All the treatment significantly influenced most of the growth and yield components of Tulsi and Pudina. The plant height, No. of branch/plant, No. of leaf/plant, Leaf length, 1000- fresh leaf weight and fresh yield were highest where cowdung was applied. All the above parameters were lowest where no manures were applied (control). From these results it was clear that cowdung was the best for soil quality and growth and yield of Tulsi and Pudina medicinal plant.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jesnr.v7i2.22197 J. Environ.

A field experiment was carried out on a farmer’s field at Kannitamilnadu village in Cuddalore district, Tamilnadu during 2018 to find out the suitable organic inputs and pattern of mulching for better growth and yield of roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffavar. sabdariffa). The experiment was laid out in a factorial randomized block design with five levels of organic manures and four levels of mulching with three replication.. Best of the interaction effect was due to the combined application of 25 t FYM + 3 t poultry manure ha-1+ plastic mulch (M3S2) which recorded the highest values for all growth and yield parameters viz., plant height (228.3 cm), number of branches (14.5), leaf area (308.9 cm2), number of calcyes/plant (33.5), calyx yield/plant (233.9 g) and calyx yield/ha (6568.75 kg). The lowest values of these parameters were recorded under control (no organics and no mulching) treatment

Fertilizer Combination

Seedling performance is a prerequisite for successful palm oil cultivation. Determining the growth of seedlings in addition to genetic factors can also be influenced by the provision of nutrients at the beginning of growth. This research was conducted with the aim to get the best combination of cow manure with urea and NPK on the growth of oil palm seedlings in pre-nursery. This experiment used a factorial design, consisting of a single factor arranged in a completely randomized design (CRD), which is a combined application of cow manure, urea fertilizer and NPK fertilizer consisting of 4 combination levels (0.4 g urea + 0.4 g NPK; 0.2 g urea + cow manure fertilizer, 0.2 g NPK + cow manure fertilizer, and 65 g cow manure fertilizer). Research data was analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) at 5% significance level. The results showed that administration of a combination of 0.2 g urea + 40 g cow manure produced the best growth of oil palm seedlings, although it had the same effect as a combination of 0.4 g NPK fertilizer + 50 g cow manure, whereas the combination treatment of 0.4 g urea + 0.4 g NPK fertilizer and 65 g cow manure treatment resulted in lower growth of oil palm seedlings.

Field trials were conducted at the University Orchard Aliero, Kebbi state University of Science and Technology Aliero, during the 2017 and 2018 dry seasons, to study the  growth and yield of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench) varieties influenced by sole and combined application of NPK (15:15:15) and Poultry manure. The treatments consisted of a factorial combination of three Okra varieties: LD88, NHAE47-4 and Dogo; and three level of nutrients: 800 kg NPK (15:15:15) ha-1, 100%PM ha-1 equivalent to 6.6 t ha-1 and 50% NPK+50% PM ha-1 (400 kg of NPK [15:15:15] + 3.3 t of PM ha-1) and the untreated control, each designed to supply the recommended dose of 120 kg N ha-1 using a compound fertilizer NPK (15:15:15) and poultry manure and cow dung. Results revealed that plant height, number of leaves, number of pods per plant, mean pod weight (g), mean pod length (cm), fruit yield per hectare were significantly increased when the recommended N dose of 120 kg N ha-1 was applied using only NPK (800 kg NPK [15:15:15 ha-1]) or a combination of NPK+PM at 50:50 ratio in conjunction with variety NHAE47-4. Based on the results of this study, it could be concluded that the integration of organic and inorganic fertilizers in form of NPK fertilizer and poultry manure at 50:50 ratio in conjunction with variety NHAE47-4, could be adopted for higher pod yield.

A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of combined application of urea and poultry manure(viz., 100% N-urea, 75% N-urea + 25% N-PM, 50% N-urea + 50% N-PM, 25% N-urea + 75% N-PM and 100% N-PM) on yield and quality of two varieties of lettuce viz., Green Span and NAI RE KUI DA F1at the Horticulture Farm of Agriculture and Forestry University, Rampur, Chitwan, Nepal from October 30, 2015 to January 30, 2016. Results revealed that the integration of 50% or more N-PM had significantly higher values in growth, yield and quality parameters while the use of 100% N-urea had the lowest one. Similarly, the two varieties significantly differed in all characters and the variety Green Span performed better at all levels of integration of N-urea with N-poultry manure than NAI RE KUI DA F1. Based on interaction effect, Green Span performed better with 100% N-poultry manure while NAI RE KUI DA F1 did better with the combination of 50% N-urea and 50% N-PM. SAARC J.
