Transformation of Poultry Wastes and Oil Palm Residues into Liquid Fertilizers and its Use in the Fertilization of Oil Palm at the Juvenile Stage

“…At this dose, regardless of the oil palm growth parameter, the foliar application of vermiwash generated values that were statistically higher than those displayed by the application on the substrate. Beya [9] explains this situation by the fact that the effect of applying fertilizer to the soil is slower than that of foliar application. Or, according to the same author, this reflects the fact that leaf fertilization stimulates the plant by the fact that it is directly related to the enzymatic activity of plants.…”

“…These observations could mean that the plant, for its development, uses less fertilizer product in foliar application than in application on substrate. This is evident when Beya [9] argues that the positive effect of foliar fertilizer is based on better absorption of applied nutrients. This implies economical and efficient use of vermiwash in the production of oil palm plants in the nursery phase.…”

“…It is also characterized by an early production of bunches, an economic exploitation of about 30 years and a strong resistance to Fusarium wilt. It is the one that is currently popularized in the Ivorian areas of oil palm cultivation, for the creation of oil palm plantations in Côte d'Ivoire" [6][7][8][9].…”
