“…This is also indicated by the strongest correlation between the germination rate and the growth of seedling stems and radicles. Our results, which clearly show that the seedling growth is highly correlated with seed germination, are consistent with results obtained by other researchers [43][44][45].…”

Background The production of medicinal plants depends on two major factors: the seed quality and the presence of seed-borne pathogens. The use of conventional plant protection products is not allowed in organic production, and therefore such production is highly risky. In an attempt to find an environmentally-safe solution and the equilibrium between the seed germination and the presence of fungal pathogens, the impact of essential oils of oregano, cinnamon, basil, caraway, mint, and lavender, at concentrations of 0.002 to 1% on Althea officinalis seeds aged one, two and three years, has been investigated. Results The treatment with lavender essential oil at the concentration of 0.02% was the most effective in three-year-old seeds. This treatment increased both seed germination and seedling growth by 13% and 24–35%, respectively. It also reduced the presence of seed-borne fungal pathogens in the range from 53 to 100%. Concuclusions The results indicate the benefits of certain essential oils in crop production. They may provide more sustainable and successful cultivation of marshmallow crops, especially in organic production.

“…Storage with high CO2 partial pressure had no additional effect on the physiological potential of soybean seed maintenance compared to O2 reduction alone. In line with the study of [29] that seed germination was very fast after harvest and began to decline as seed storage was extended for 3, 6, and 9 months, respectively.…”

The study on the production and distribution of soybean seeds was carried out in January-September 2020. The location of soybean seed production was 33 ha across Central Java Province, Grobogan, Kendal, and Brebes districts. The seeds produced are SS1 class consisting of Grobogan (22 ha), Anjasmoro (10 ha), and Dega 1 (1 ha). Seed production was carried out by cooperating with soybean seed partners. The data collected includes data on prospective soybean seed production, yield, and distribution of soybean seeds. Existing data were analyzed descriptively. The study results showed that the Grobogan seed's productivity was 2,150 kg/ha on average, while the Anjasmoro was 2,030 kg/ha, and Dega 1 was 2,120 kg/ha. Overall yields of soybean seeds from 33 ha were 73,803 kg. The percentage yield of Grobogan was 79.072%, Anjasmoro 80.20%, and Dega 1 was 66.67%. The seeds were distributed to seed producers in the Central Java Province recommended by the Central Java Seed Monitoring and Certification Agency and the Central Java Seed Producers and Traders Association.

“…Humic substances also make cell more permeable to take up nutrients 15 and resultantly enhance the plant growth 54 . The mechanism for BC is different, it has high water retention potential that results in slow mineralization 55 and less leachate production 53 . This results in reduction in nutrient loss 43 and consequently increase the plant growth 46 .…”

Kitchen waste is increasing globally, similarly in Pakistan bulk of municipal solid waste comprises of kitchen waste specifically, tea waste. Composting of kitchen waste is one of the promising ways to convert waste into useful product, resulting into zero waste. This study is aimed to convert waste (kitchen waste) in to a resource (compost) using bulking agents (tea waste and biochar) for reducing maturity time. Secondly, compost application on Solanum lycopersicum (tomato) was also tested. Four compost treatments were designed under aerobic composting conditions for 30 days. Tea waste and biochar have accelerated the maturity rate and produced a nutrient rich compost. Final compost had Electrical Conductivity of 2mS/cm, Carbon Nitrogen ration of 15, 54% of organic matter, 15% of moisture content, 48% of cellulose content, and 28% of Lignin content. With the use of Co-compost the Solanum lycopersicum showed 133% germination index, 100% germination, 235% Munoo-Liisa Vitality Index and 1238% seed vigor index. Co-compost also improved the soil total nitrogen by 1.4%, total phosphorous by 2%, total potassium by 2.1% and bulk density by 2.6 gcm−3. This study successfully used tea waste and biochar as bulking agents to reduce maturation time to 30 days. Tea waste and biochar enhanced the organic matter degradation, lignocellulose degradation, water holding capacity, porosity, seed’s vigor, germination index. This research can be helpful in developing home composting and home gardening to combat solid waste management and food security issue in developing countries.
