“…The yield of fresh biomass in shaded dill was 13.6 kg ha −1 , which was statistically significantly higher (factor significance < 0.05) than in the control variant (10.8 kg ha −1 ). Similar results were reported in a study by Popović et al [ 34 ]. Large dill biomass (stalks and umbels) can be used as feed additives and thus reduce the amount of waste.…”

This study determined the content and composition of dill seed (Anethum graveolens L.) essential oil under varying light conditions: non-shaded plants in open fields and plants covered with pearl shade nets (40% shade index). Essential oil was extracted using Clevenger hydrodistillation. The essential oil content was 4.63% for non-shaded plants and 4.81% for shaded plants. GC/MS analysis revealed twenty-one and twenty-two components in dill seed from non-shaded and shaded plants, respectively. The terpenic fraction of essential oil from non-shaded plants consisted mainly of oxygen-containing monoterpene derivatives (53.6%), with carvone (46.1%) as the primary component, followed by monoterpene hydrocarbons (46.4%), predominantly limonene (43.8%). Essential oil from shaded plants contained a higher content of carvone (49.8%) and a lower content of limonene (37.8%) compared to essential oil from non-shaded plants. Non-shaded plant essential oil exhibited stronger antioxidant activity (EC50 value: 26.04 mg mL−1) than shaded plant essential oil (54.23 mg mL−1). Dill seed essential oil showed the most potent antimicrobial activity (disc diffusion method) against Escherichia coli (inhibition zone: 15–18 mm). Shaded plants demonstrated a positive influence of essential oil against Klebsiella pneumoniae. Carvone and its derivatives, as the main components, hold significant potential in the food industry and alternative medicines. A practical implication of this study could be higher plant densities or intercropping of dill, as it thrives with minimal light.

“…Berenguer & Faci (2001) reported that water deficit stress reduced dry matter production and plant height in sorghum. Irrigation compared to the control (without irrigation) caused a 79% and 47% increase in dill biomass yield in the first and second year, respectively (Popović et al, 2019).…”

Drought is the most important abiotic stress in arid and semi-arid regions of the world and causes a decrease in the yield of agricultural plants. One of the ways to deal with drought is the use of hydrogels. Two pot experiments were conducted to study the effect of hydrogel polymer on the growth and the physiological traits of fenugreek and dill plants. The study was carried out as a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design. The experiment included two factors: hydrogel polymer rates (0, 0.02, 0.04, and 0.08 grams per kilogram of soil) and irrigation intervals (irrigation intervals of 3 and 6 days). Results showed that leaf, stem and seedling fresh and dry weight were increased by hydrogel polymer application in both plant species. Hydrogel polymer increased leaf relative water content but decreased chlorophyll content. Plants treated with the polymer applied at 0.08 g kg-1 produced the highest dry matter. The improvement was probably due to the increased leaf relative water content. The highest dry weight of the seedling was measured in plants treated with the polymer applied at 0.08 g kg-1 , whereas the lowest seedling dry weight was found in plants that were not treated with the polymer. The effect of irrigation interval on growth characteristics of both plant species was not significant. Overall, the use of hydrogel improves plant biomass in dill and fenugreek. Application of amounts higher than 0.08 g/kg of hydrogel on dill and fenugreek is recommended for further research.

The aim of this paper is to maintain soil fertility on an organic farm without livestock production by using alfalfa green biomass. The research was carried out on the farm of Mokrin PP company, by modeling and sizing of crop rotation with alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) on the non-carbonate humoglay. To ensure a cost-effective technical solution, alfalfa seed production was organized. In the autumn of 2015 alfalfa sowing was carried out in a field of 5 ha. Green biomass of the first and third cuttings, as well as crop residue after harvesting of seeds in the second cutting, were mowed and chopped by harvester for low silage and stored in the silage-pit. After nine months, a mature alfalfa compost was obtained with optimum values of total nitrogen (5.04%), organic matter (42.56%), C/N, pH, humidity, and EC. Two-year alfalfa utilization is the recommended time in this research because to the following benefits: in crop rotation, alfalfa field is provided with nitrogen by symbiotic ni?trogen fixation and the alfalfa is cultivated every five years in the same field, while in the middle of that period the field is fertilized with compost produced on the farm. The amount of compost obtained by crop rotation (2016 - 48.80 t; 2017 - 62.30 t) is enough for about 20% of the arable area per year. Thus, the fields are fertilized every fourth year with 10 t ha-1 of compost. Thanks to alfalfa biomass and seed and also nitrogen fixation, maintaining soil fertility is resolved in a sustainable and natural way.
