An experimental study was conducted in Gbadolite city to develop composts from peanut (Groundnut) and maize residues alone or combined. The study found that plots modified with compost based on peanut (Groundnut) residues combined with corn residues are of good quality compared to non-waste compost combined and unamended plots as indicated by the average values of plant height (91.9±0.79 cm vs. 54.0±1.35 cm), diameter at the collar (12.66±0.47 mm vs. 9.00±1.41 mm); number of leaves ( 20.6±0.47 vs. 15.6±0.47); leaf lengths (23.5±1.17 cm vs. 19.4±1.92 cm ); leaf widths (7.32±0.44 cm vs. 6.34±0.68 cm) yield per hectare ( 22.63±0.67T/ha vs 11.51±2.85 T/ha ). It is therefore desirable that compost be characterized from a physical-chemical point of view (pH, minerals, C/N ratio, etc.) and considers the production of other plants grown on this substrate in order to assess its effectiveness.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
