The Nutrient Content, Growth, Yield, and Yield Attribute Traits of Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Genotypes as Influenced by Organic Fertilizer in Malaysia

One of the most important challenges to continuously maximizing crop production on limited areas of agricultural land is maintaining or enhancing soil fertility. Organic fertilizer application is needed to replace nutrients recovered by crops from the fields in order to restore the crop production potential of the soil. The utilization of chicken manure as an organic fertilizer is essential in improving soil productivity and cop production. In Malaysia, demand for rice as a food source is rising in tandem with population growth, while paddy rice production capacity is becoming increasingly constrained. Field experiments were carried out in Sungai besar, Kuala Selangor, Malaysia during the two planting seasons in 2020 to evaluate the effects of different levels of organic fertilizer on the growth and yield of rice genotypes. A split plot layout in a randomized complete block design with three replicates was used. The twelve rice genotypes were in the main plots. The sub-plots were treatments. The experiment comprised 4 treatments, viz., T1 = 100% NPK (N150P60K60), T2 = Chicken manure @ 5 t ha−1, T3 = Chicken manure @ 7 t ha−1, and T4 = Chicken manure @ 10 t ha−1. The study indicated that different levels of chicken manure and NPK fertilizer showed significant effects on growth, yield, and yield contributing characters of all the rice genotypes. Results showed that application of chicken manure 10 t ha-1 was the best in producing growth and yield contributing characters, grain and straw yields, and also nutrient (N, P, and K) contents in grain and straw. The maximum number of panicles (422.56 panicles m−1), the maximum number of filled grains (224.49 grains panicle−1), and the maximum grain yield (8.02 t ha−1) and straw yield (9.88 t ha−1) were recorded from T4 treatment at the rice genotype BRRI dhan75. Although the highest biological yield was recorded from T4 treatment, a statistically similar result was found for T3 treatment. The highest harvest index was also recorded for T4 treatment. Therefore, rice genotype BRRI dhan75 can be recommended under chicken manure @ 10 t ha−1 for rice production in Malaysia.

Chicken and sawdust decomposed and their effect on the performance of chili pepper in Aguaytía, Ucayali

The effect of the application of three levels of chicken manure and three levels of decomposed sawdust on the yield of the chili pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.) in Aguaytía - Ucayali, located at Km. 171 of the Carretera Federico Basadre left bank, Pucallpa was studied. - Lima, interior 3.2 km, for which, a nursery was made for storing and ringing the seedlings into ringing bags, which were later installed in the prepared crop field, to which the organic fertilizers were applied. in a localized manner, at the time of installation and every three months, studying two factors: chicken manure (0, 1 and 2 kg / plant) and decomposed sawdust (0, 1 and 2 kg / plant) and their combinations, under a design of complete random block with a 3 x 3 factorial arrangement and a Duncan mean test at 0.05%, determining that, as the amount of decomposed manure applied to the plant increases, the values in the development variables increase vegetative o and yield, being the application of 6 kg of chicken manure per plant which achieved the best averages in all the variables studied, also observing that, as the amount of decomposed sawdust applied to the plant is increased, the values in all the The variables studied decrease, being the treatment without the application of decomposed sawdust the one that achieved the best averages, corroborating this behavior in the interaction of the factors, in which the application of 6 kg of decomposed chicken manure alone achieved the best averages in all the variables studied.

Aims: Study aims to evaluate the effect of chicken manure and mycorrhiza levels as fertilizers on vegetative growth and on phenological stages of Sorghum in Far North Cameroon.
 Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted in the Valorization Station of Agricultural Research (PSAR) of Yagoua.
 Methodology: For this study, variety S-35 of Sorghum have used. Three levels of fertilization were used to evaluate germination rates, vegetative growth and phenology of this variety. The levels of fertilizers applied were 20 g of mycorrhiza, 50 g of organic manure and 20+50g of effect combined mycorrhiza+organic manure in comparison to the check (0g). The experimental design was the randomized block design with 3 replications. After evaluation of germination rates in the farm, we had evaluated the height, diameters and precocity of plants.
 Results: Uses of different levels of fertilization on germination rates were important for all the levels of fertilizers compared to the control (27. 5 %). It’s varying from 52.5 % for the chicken manure, followed by the effect of combined treatments (45 %) and bio-fertilizers with 67 %. Compared to the check, the use of chicken manure as fertilization was most significant (P<0.05) on the height of plants during the vegetative growth. The diameters of plants according to the different treatments were most significant (P<0.05) respectively by the supplies of chicken manure, the effect of both treatments (mycorrhiza+chicken manure) and mycorrhiza treatment. Theses different levels fertilization was influenced the phenological stages of plants especially first flowering of plants days after sowing. Flowering of plants at 50 % was most favorable for the treatments based on the uses chicken manure and the combined effect of treatments (mycorrhiza+chicken manure).
 Conclusion: Uses of chicken manure and mycorrhiza as fertilizers on Sorghum were significant to the vegetative growth and flowering stages of plants. Levels of chicken manure had positive effect on plant height. Plants diameters were most positively affected by organic manure, mycorrhiza and the effect of both treatments during growing of plants.

Soil fertility status of cassava fields treated by integrated application of manure and NPK fertilizer in Zambia

BackgroundCassava is a heavy feeder crop that can cause serious depletion to soil nutrient stocks. This research aimed to explore soil fertility status and nutrient supply capacity at different growth stages of cassava fields under combined application of organic manure and NPK fertilizers in two agroecologies of Zambia. Topsoil (0–20 cm) samples were collected from cassava fields treated with factorial combination of four levels of chicken manure (0, 1.4, 2.8, and 4.2 ton ha−1) and four levels of NPK (control, 50N-11P-41.5K, 100N-22P-83K, and 150N-33P-124.5P). The soils were sampled under the cassava canopy to determine soil pH, available phosphorus (AP), total nitrogen (TN), organic carbon (OC), cation exchange capacity (CEC), exchangeable bases and micronutrients (Fe, Cu, Mn, and Zn). The samples were collected before planting andafter establishment at 4, 8, and 12 months after planting (MAP).ResultsManure application significantly (p < 0.05) increased soil pH, while the application of mineral fertilizer reduced soil pH at all the plant growth stages. Similarly, manure application and their interaction with mineral fertilizer increased OC and TN levels, especially at harvest. By contrast, OC and TN decreased with the application of mineral fertilizer. AP levels increased following the application of both fertilizers. In addition, manure application significantly increased soil Zn content from 0.69 mg kg−1 in the control to 3.54 mg kg−1 for the highest level of manure at harvest. The interaction between manure and NPK significantly affected Fe and Mn content in the soil.ConclusionThe results revealed that sole chicken manure application or its combination with mineral fertilizer improves soil nutrient status of cassava fields in Zambian condition.

Effect of Chicken Manure Application on Cassava Biomass and Root Yields in Two Agro-Ecologies of Zambia

Fertilizer application is known to increase crop yields and mitigate net soil nutrient mining due to continuous removal. However, smallholder farmers rarely apply adequate fertilizers because of high cost, limited availability and lack of awareness. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of chicken manure on cassava root and biomass yield at Kabangwe and Mansa, two locations representing agroecological zones II and III, respectively, in Zambia. With the aim of exploring alternative soil fertility management for smallholder farmers, the effect of sole chicken manure and mineral fertilizers was evaluated on cassava. The treatments were four levels of chicken manure (0, 1.4, 2.8, 4.2 ton/ha) and a single level of mineral NPK applied at 100N-22P-83K kg/ha as recommended. The design was a Randomized Complete Block (RCBD), with three replications using the improved cassava variety “Mweru” during the 2015/2016 growing season. The results showed significant (p &lt; 0.05) treatment effects on cassava root yields and yield components (fresh and dry root, leaf, stem, and total biomass) at both sites. The highest mean fresh (27.66 ton/ha) and dry root yield (9.55 ton/ha), and total fresh biomass (53.68 ton/ha) and dry biomass (16.12 ton/ha) production were achieved with the application of 4.2 ton/ha of chicken manure. This treatment showed 71% and 81% fresh root yield advantage over the control at Mansa and Kabangwe, respectively. While the marginal rate of return (MRR) was negative for the mineral fertilizer, it was positive for all the chicken manure treatments with the maximum (315%) achieved from the application of 4.2 ton/ha. The study concludes that application of chicken manure significantly increases the yield and biomass production of cassava and is economically efficient.

Efecto de la gallinaza en plantaciones de cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) en desarrollo.

We studied the effect of the organic chicken manure on the growth and development of cocoa trees (Theobroma cacao L.), during their juvenile stage. The experiment was initiated in February, 1993, in three commercial plantations, 20 months old, located in the county of El Rama, Region V. During the following 14 months we carried out three application , comparing, the three levels of chicken manure (454 , 908 . and 1,362 g per tree and application) with mineral fertilizer (three applications , of 15-15-15fertilizers100 g per tree, plus one application of, urea 100 g per tree), and a check without any applications. A random complete bolck design was utilized and means were compared by, Duncan’s test and regression and correlation analyses were also made. The results showed that with the application of 1,362 g of chicken manure, a significatively higher effect over the initial production of cocoa, and an increase of the stalk diameter were observed. The applications of 454 and 908, of chicken manure resulted in production levels equal to those of the treatment with mineral fertilizers. In relation to plant height, we did not find statistical differences among treatments. The treatment without fertilizer , showed the smallest growth and lower production.

Comparison of medium-term organic and inorganic fertiliser application on leaf nutrient concentration and yield of maize in rural agriculture in the Mbizana area, Eastern Cape province, South Africa

A five-year study was conducted in the Mbizana area, Eastern Cape province, to assess the seasonal and medium term effects of chicken manure and inorganic fertiliser application to an acid clay loam topsoil on nutrient element uptake and yield of maize in a field trial under dryland. Treatments consisted of a once-off application of three levels of dolomitic lime, annual application of two levels of inorganic fertiliser, and three levels of chicken manure. A no-till practice with hand planting and fertiliser application was used. Leaf and soil sampling, as well as harvesting were performed and analyses done. Chicken manure application induced similar maize leaf macro- and micro-nutrient concentrations to the recommended inorganic fertiliser (Frec) level and, in general, significantly higher values than the traditional fertiliser level (Ftrad). Augmenting chicken manure with inorganic nitrogen led to significant increases in leaf nitrogen and phosphorus levels. Grain yields under chicken manure were similar to those under Frec, but far superior to those under Ftrad. It is concluded that under acid soil conditions the improvement of soil fertility, either by organic or inorganic fertiliser application, can result in maize grain yields of about 3 Mg ha-1 under the prevailing rainfall conditions.

Effects of liming and inorganic fertiliser application on soil properties and maize growth and yield in rural agriculture in the Mbizana area, Eastern Cape province, South Africa

A five-year study was conducted to assess the seasonal and medium-term effects of liming and fertilisation of an acid clay loam topsoil on soil properties and on the growth and yield of maize under dry land. Treatments consisted of a control, a once-off application of three levels of dolomitic lime, annual application of two levels of inorganic fertiliser, and three levels of chicken manure. A no-till practice was used with hand planting and fertiliser application. Leaf and soil sampling, as well as harvesting, were performed and analyses done. Soil extractable acidity, acid saturation and leaf Mn and K were reduced significantly, whereas soil pH, soil and leaf P, Ca and Mg increased significantly with an increase in lime application. Liming had no clear effect on soil K, maize leaf N, Cu, Fe and Zn, or on maize grain yield. The higher commercial fertiliser level significantly increased soil P, K and Ca, as well as leaf N, P, K, Cu, Mn and grain yield, compared to the traditional level. These results emphasise the longevity of liming application and that low soil fertility, followed by soil acidity, are the primary factors limiting soil productivity in the study area.

Influence of Chicken Manure on Growth and Yield of Forage Sorghum (Sorghum Bicolor L.Moench )

The increasingly demand of chicken meat in Sudan has prompted more poultry farming with consequent ef- fects on increased utilization of organic wastes (e.g. chicken manure) as fertilizers. Organic wastes contain varying amounts of water, mineral nutrients and organic matter. While the use of organic wastes as manure has been in practice for centuries world-wide. A field experiment was conducted at the Experimental Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Khartoum, Shambat during the period (February - May 2007) to study the effect of different rates of chicken manure on growth and forage yield of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.), Moench). The treatments consisted of four levels of chicken manure; 0, 1.2, 2.5 and 5.0 tons/ha. The treatments were arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design in four repli- cates. The character studies were plant population, plant height, number of leaves per plant, stem diameter, leaf area index, and fresh and dry forage yield. The results showed that there were significant differences among treatments in most pa- rameters during the growing period for growth attributes under study. Chicken manure resulted in an increase in growth attributes as well as forage yield. Chicken manure (5 tons/ha) produced higher fresh and dry forage at harvest than the other treatments.

Produção de capítulos florais da camomila em função de populações de plantas e da incorporação ao solo de cama-de-aviário

O experimento foi realizado no horto de plantas medicinais da Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul, em Dourados, de abril a setembro/2000. Avaliou-se o efeito do uso de cama-de-aviário semidecomposta incorporada ao solo e populações de plantas sobre as características morfológicas, a produção e a qualidade do óleo essencial dos capítulos florais da camomila cv. 'Mandirituba'. Os fatores em estudo deram origem aos nove tratamentos, combinando respectivamente espaçamentos entre plantas (m) e cama-de-aviário (kg m-2): 0,16 e 1,2; 0,24 e 1,2; 0,16 e 2,8; 0,24 e 2,8; 0,20 e 2,0; 0,11 e 1,2; 0,29 e 2,8; 0,16 e 0,2 e 0,24 e 3,8, dispostos no delineamento experimental de blocos casualizados, com quatro repetições. As características avaliadas foram altura de plantas; número, altura e diâmetro, massa fresca e seca e análise qualitativa do óleo essencial dos capítulos florais. A altura média máxima das plantas da camomila 'Mandirituba' foi de 0,61 m, sendo considerada cultivar de porte baixo. Não houve efeito significativo da interação espaçamentos entre plantas e cama-de-aviário sobre as características avaliadas. A produção dos capítulos florais foi influenciada mais intensamente pelo espaçamento entre plantas do que pela cama-de-aviário. O menor espaçamento induziu os maiores números (56,57 milhões ha-1) e massas secas dos capítulos florais (1.080 kg ha-1). As alturas (0,71 a 0,81 cm aos 100 dias e 0,68 a 0,71 cm aos 116 dias após transplante), o diâmetro (1,96 a 2,13 cm aos 100 dias e 1,83 a 1,91 cm aos 116 dias após transplante) e a massa unitária dos capítulos florais (0,12 g) não foram significativamente influenciados pelos tratamentos estudados. A produção média de massa seca dos capítulos florais (800 kg ha-1) foi maior que a média brasileira convencional (500 kg ha-1). O óleo essencial obtido, nas amostras dos nove tratamentos, apresentou cor azul intensa e odor característico, como descrito na literatura para os óleos de boa qualidade e apropriados para a comercialização.

Produtividade do inhame em função de fertilização orgânica e mineral e de épocas de colheita

Na Empresa Estadual de Pesquisa Agropecuária da Paraíba em João Pessoa, foi instalado um experimento em solo Podzólico Vermelho-Amarelo de textura arenosa, com o objetivo de se avaliar a produtividade do inhame Dioscorea cayennensis variedade Da Costa, em função de fonte e doses de matéria orgânica, de adubação mineral (NPK) e de épocas de colheita. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi blocos casualizados, com parcelas subdivididas em arranjo fatorial 2 x 4 + 2, com quatro repetições, estudando-se nas parcelas principais o efeito de épocas de colheita (sete e nove meses após o plantio) e nas subparcelas, oito tratamentos formados por quatro doses de esterco bovino (5; 10; 15 e 20 t/ha) e por quatro de esterco de galinha (2,8; 5,6; 8,4 e 11,2 t/ha), associadas a 100-120-60 kg/ha de N - P2O5 - K2O e dois tratamentos adicionais (testemunha absoluta e adubação mineral isolada). O emprego de matéria orgânica proporcionou incremento de 3,8 t/ha na produtividade do inhame na colheita aos nove meses. A produtividade alcançada com esterco bovino, aos sete meses, superou significativamente em 1,9 t/ha a produtividade obtida com esterco de galinha. Aos nove meses, o esterco de galinha proporcionou aumento significativo de 2,0 t/ha na produtividade em relação à obtida com esterco bovino. A produtividade de inhame obtida com adubação mineral isolada aos sete e nove meses após o plantio, superou significativamente a testemunha em 7,7 e 4,4 t/ha, respectivamente. As doses de 13,3 e 12,6 t/ha de esterco bovino mais NPK foram responsáveis pela máxima produtividade de inhame (18 t/ha) colhido aos sete meses e 20 t/ha, colhido aos nove meses após o plantio, respectivamente, enquanto a dose de 7,0 t/ha de esterco de galinha proporcionou produtividade máxima de 15 t/ha de inhame colhido aos sete meses e de 22 t/ha colhido aos nove meses após o plantio. A produtividade média geral obtida na colheita aos nove meses após o plantio alcançou 18 t/ha superando, significativamente, em 19,5% (3,5 t/ha) a média de 14,5 t/ha obtida na colheita aos sete meses.

Nitrogen input, primary productivity and fish yield in fertilized freshwater ponds in Indonesia

Twelve 0.2-ha ponds in West Java were fertilized weekly with four levels of chicken manure (12.5, 25, 50, and 100 g dry weight/m 2 week −1) during a 149-day growout experiment for Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus) production. Laboratory leaching experiments for measuring dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) release from chicken manure showed that nitrogen was released as ammonia-N, which was rapidly lost from the manure and leveled off at about 6 mg NH 4N/g dry weight chicken manure after 4–5 days. Allochthonous DIN input from both chicken manure fertilization and almost daily source-water additions ranged from 0.055 to 0.142 g N/m 2 day −1. Source water contributed more nitrogen than manure in all but the highest fertilization treatment. Pond averages of net primary productivity (NP) ranged from 0.54 to 2.00 g C/m 2 day −1, while gross fish yield at harvest ranged from 4.9 to 15.7 kg fresh weight/ha day −1. Net fish yield (NFY) was linearly correlated to both the dry weight sum of NP and chicken manure fertilization ( r 2=0.97) and allochthonous DIN input ( r 2=0.96). Results suggest that Nile tilapia obtained organic carbon from both primary productivity and manure-derived detritus. DIN availability limited algal productivity at a chicken manure fertilization rate of 100 g dry weight/m 2 week −1 when microbial decomposition of manure supplied sufficient CO 2. Incorporation of allochthonous DIN input into NFY increased significantly from 15.0% at the three lower fertilization rates to 25.4% at the highest loading rate. Using organic fertilizers proportionally rich in phosphorus and carbon relative to nitrogen may maintain this element's limitation of algal productivity. Efficient utilization of DIN input also may minimize total and un-ionized ammonia concentrations. In the absence of deleterious ammonia effects on survival and growth, fish yields can be readily predicted from measurements of nitrogen inputs.
