“…Organic fertilizer application in soil increases or stabilizes the soil pH [4,33,34]. However, the findings of this study indicated that M1, MS1, M2, and MS2 amendments were more effective in increasing the soil pH, which is consistent with the previous results of Han et al [35] and Das et al [9]. Adding various organic supplements to the soil enhances the accumulation of basic macronutrients, especially N, K, and P, as well as soil organic matter [16].…”

Effect of Sugarcane Straw and Goat Manure on Soil Nutrient Transformation and Bacterial Communities

et al. 2018

Crop residue and animal manure as a soil amendment have been recognized as a feasible agricultural practice owing to its contribution in improving the soil fertility (SF). The primary advantages of this practice are determined by the activities of soil microorganisms. However, goat manure (M), sugarcane straw (S), and goat manure plus straw (MS) amendments influence soil bacteria, their activities, and SF in clay-loam soil remains undefinable. Therefore, this study distinguished the efficacy of M, MS, and S amendment on soil enzyme activities and the availability of nutrients, including various bacterial populations in clay-loamy soil with respect to two different phases (50 and 100 days). In order to analyze the bacterial structure and their activities, we employed high-throughput sequencing (HTS) and soil enzyme activity (SEA) tests. Soil amended with M and MS not only significantly enhanced nutrient availability, including C, P, and N, soil pH, as well as SEA for C and N cycles in both phases. Additionally, the increase in nutrient availability was greater in M-and MS-amended soils in the second phase (100 days) compared to the M-and S-amended soils in the first phase (50 days). Moreover, plant growth promoting and lignocellulose degrading bacterial genera were enhanced under M-and MS-amended soil compared to S-amended soil in both phases. Distance-based redundancy analysis (dbRDA) showed that soil pH, carbon-nitrogen ratio (C:N), and nitrates (NO 3 − )were inducing the fewest changes, while total nitrogen (TN), total carbon (TC), available nitrogen (AN), available phosphorus (AP), total phosphorus (TP), available potassium (AK), and ammonium (NH 4 + )were the main operators in terms of change in bacterial populations. In general, we observed that M and MS are better amendment sources as compared to S amendment in order to enhance the SF in the clay-loamy soil in both phases, but greater fertility was exhibited in the second phase.

“…Photosynthesis activity increases in the case of sufficient K (Hu et al, 2015). Manure compost is a robust source of plant nutrients (Han, An, Hwang, Kim, & Park, 2016). The addition of organic materials improves the plant rhizosphere, making the soil structure crumble and soil aeration better, so that root plants more easily absorb K nutrients.…”

Effects of Chicken Compost and KCl Fertilizer on Growth, Yield, Post-Harvest Quality of Sweet Corn and Soil Health

et al. 2020

This study aimed to determine the effects of chicken compost and KCl fertilizer application on the growth, yield, post-harvest quality of sweet corn (Zea mays L. var. saccharata), soil respiration and microbial population. The research was arranged according to a Factorial Random-Block Design consisting of two factors and three replications. The first factor was the dose of chicken compost (0 and 15 t/ha) and the second the dose of KCl fertilizer (0, 50, 100 and 150 kg/ha). The results showed that chicken compost stimulated the growth, yield, postharvest quality of sweet corn, respiration, and microbial activity of soil. KCl fertilizer increased SPAD values linearly and quadratically chlorophyll pigment, β-carotene, yield components, and yield. KCl fertilizer did not affect soil respiration, fungi, or bacteria populations. The use of chicken compost reduced the need for KCl fertilization by 25%. Therefore, the integration of organic and inorganic fertilizers are recommended to be applied by farmers in the tropics.

Fertilizing by using chicken manure as an organic amendment is a complementary to improve chemical fertilizer efficiency. This study was conducted in Glasshouse & Nursery Complex of IIUM with the objectives of evaluating different rates of chicken manure application on soil properties, leaf nutrients and the growth response of fig trees for early growth effects. The soils were amended with 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 50% of chicken manure on three months old saplings of cultivar BTM6 in five replications were used to observe the effects. The experiment was observed for three months. The nutrient content in T1 and treated soil showed a significant difference at p < 0.05. The T5 had the highest content of nutrients compared to other treatments. However, the leaf nutrient contents did not show any significant difference among all treatments. Survivability of the trees were 100% with T2 showed a superlative growth response with the high number of branches, leaves and fruits thus provide high yield production as compared to other treatments (p<0.05). The results clarified that application of chicken manure improved soil properties and promote growth response of fig trees in tropical environment.
