Abstract

The study aims to investigate the effect of various organic waste materials on the growth of cucumber plants. The study is motivated by the increasing need for sustainable agricultural practices and the potential use of organic waste as a source of nutrients for plant growth. The experiment will be conducted using a randomized complete block design with three treatments: food scraps, animal manure, yard waste. Cucumber seeds will be sown in pots filled with soil mixed with the respective organic waste material. The growth parameters such as plant height and length of leaves will be measured at regular intervals. It is hypothesized that cucumber plants grown in soil amended with organic waste materials will exhibit better growth compared to those with no fertilizer. This hypothesis is based on previous studies that have shown the positive impact of organic waste on plant growth due to its nutrient content. The results obtained from this research will contribute to our understanding of the potential use of different organic waste materials as a sustainable alternative to synthetic fertilizers in agriculture. It may also provide insights into effective methods for recycling and managing organic waste for agricultural purposes.
