The use of manures and irrigation systems are essential ways to improve the fertility of coastline poor soils in Côte d’Ivoire and to optimize crop yields at any time of the year. The present study aims to identify the best manures and irrigation systems suitable for the vegetative growth of eggplant on the tertiary poor soils of the coast in Côte d'Ivoire. For this purpose, combinations of fertilizer (urea and organic manure from chicken droppings) and irrigation techniques (manual watering and drip irrigation system) were tested in Fisher block design. So, vegetative growth variables of Eggplant, Aub 21N / 06, grown on tertiary soil at the Marc Delorme research station of the Centre National de Recherche Agronomique (CNRA) in Southern Côte d'Ivoire were evaluated. The results showed that the growth dynamics of collar circumference, height and leaf production of eggplant irrigated by drip system and fertilized with organic manure from chicken droppings was significantly higher. The eggplants that received a treatment composed by organic or chemical manure without irrigation and those without manure and irrigation expressed lower vegetative growth. The organic manure from chicken droppings associated with the drip irrigation regime had a significant beneficial effect on the average growth rates of the collar circumference (0.0035 cm.day-1), height (0.5669 cm.day-1) and leaf production (3.12 leaves.day-1) of eggplant. It appears that organic manure from chicken droppings associated with drip irrigation regime is an agricultural innovation to disseminate to market gardeners to cultivate the eggplant on littoral tertiary soil.

The objective of this study was to restore degraded soils with organic manure from agro-industrial bio-waste (seed cotton) in the Department of Korhogo in Northern Côte d'Ivoire. The research plots were set up in a Fisher block experimental design with four treatments, namely T0 (control soil), T1 (bio-waste at 1 month of biodegradation), T2 (bio-waste at 3 months of degradation) and T3 (bio-waste at 6 months of degradation). On each of the treatments, bio-waste was applied using spreading technique and the variety F8128 of corn was sown to evaluate the agronomic performance of bio-waste. Four agronomic parameters were measured: Plant height, collar diameter, ear weight and grain yield. Likewise, the physical, physico-chemical and chemical analyses of the soil were performed before sowing and after corn harvesting. The work was carried out from 2018 to 2019 in the district of Korhogo in Northern Côte d'Ivoire. Our study shows significant increase in corn grain yield in each of the treatments (T1 = 2.26 T/ha; T2 = 1.98 T/ha and T3 = 1.48 T/ha) compared to the control (T0 = 1 T/ha). Laboratory analyses of the soil and bio-waste indicate a very low level of organic matter (MO varies from 0.55 to 0.77 g.kg-1) in the soil of the experimental plot and good mineralization of the organic matter in the bio-waste regardless of the decomposition time (C/N varies from 12 to 13). After application of the bio-waste, the organic matter content (T3 = 10.28 g.kg-1; T1 = 23.61 g.kg-1 and T2 = 23.63 g.kg-1) and nitrogen content (T3 = 0.69 g.kg-1; T1 = 1.16 g.kg-1 and T2 = 1.21 g.kg-1) of the various treatments significantly increased compared to the control soil (MO = 0.66 g.kg-1 and N = 0.013 g.kg-1). The pH level increased where the organic manure was applied becoming slightly acidic (5.7 to 6.4) compared to the control that had strong acidic reaction (4.8 to 5.1).  Based on our study, it is evident that organic fertilizer has positive effect on corn yield. The seed cotton bio-waste has had an improving effect on the degraded soil of in Northern Côte d’Ivoire.

L’objectif de ce travail était de définir un itinéraire de culture favorable à la croissance des plants d’ananas MD2 en fonction des saisons de mise en culture dans la localité de Bonoua, au Sud - Est de la Côte d’Ivoire. Les effets de trois lits de plantation (terrain plat, billon sans un film polyéthylénique et billon recouvert avec un film polyéthylénique) ; de deux densités de plantation (50000 et 70000 plants/ha) ; de quatre types de fumure [F1 (Urée + Potasse) ; F2 (Urée + Potasse + Oligoéléments) ; F3 (Urée + Potasse + Engrais complet) et F4 (Urée + Potasse + Engrais complet + Oligoéléments)] et de deux fréquences d’application de fertilisants (3AP et 7AP) ont été testés. Au terme de la phase végétative du cycle, les comparaisons intersaisons des paramètres mesurés ont montré que quels que soient les traitements appliqués, le nombre de feuilles vivantes et la longueur de la feuille D les plus importants, ont été obtenus lorsque les plantings ont été réalisés à la grande saison pluvieuse. Les masses des feuilles D ont été supérieures au seuil de 70 g pour les plantings effectués pendant la petite et la grande saison pluvieuse, ainsi qu’à la grande saison sèche. La confection de billons a permis aux plants d’ananas MD2 d’avoir une bonne croissance végétative en saison sèche dans la localité de Bonoua.Mots clés : Ananas MD2, croissance, feuille D, saison, Fertilisant, Côte d’Ivoire. English Title: Effects of bedding, planting density and fertilization on the vegetative growth of pineapple (Ananas comosus L., var. MD2) at different planting seasons in the Bonoua zone in Côte d'Ivoire The objective of this work was to define a cultivation itinerary favorable to the growth of MD2 pineapple plants according to the growing seasons in the locality of Bonoua, in the South - East of Côte d'Ivoire. The effects of three planting beds (flat ground, ridge without a polyethylene film and ridge covered with a polyethylene film); two planting densities (50,000 and 70,000 seedlings/ha); four types of manuring [F1 (Urea + Potash)]; F2 (Urea + Potash + Trace elements); F3 (Urea + Potash + Complete fertilizer) and F4 (Urea + Potash + Complete fertilizer + Trace elements)] and two fertilizer application frequencies (3AP and 7AP) were tested. At the end ofthe vegetative phase of the cycle, inter-season comparisons of the measured parameters showed that, regardless of the treatments applied, the most important number of live leaves and leaf length D were obtained when the plantings were carried out during the long rainy season. The D-leaf masses were above the threshold of 70 g for plantings carried out during the short and long rainy seasons, as well as during the long dry season. The making of ridges allowed the MD2 pineapple plants to have a good vegetative growth during the dry season in the locality of Bonoua.Keywords: Pineapple MD2, growth, leaf D, season, Fertiliser, Côte d’Ivoire.
