“…Oregon, in assessing the effects of municipal solid waste compost (MSWC) mixed with soil, in different ratios, without fertigation. Aditionally, this average was similar to the mean value of 4.26 ˚Brix, determined by Aminifard et al [36] in fruits of sweet pepper cv. California Wonder, developed under in field, whose fertilization consisted of four levels of compost (0, 5, 10 and 15 t•ha −1 ) and their conclusion was that fruits harvested from plants that received compost had significantly greater TSS than those harvested from the mineral fertilizer plots.…”

The aim of this research was to determine the effect of three organic manures (vermicompost, simple compost, compost with gypsum) with four different levels, as sources of fertilization, and mixed with river sand, this was used as an inert material, on the phenolic content, antioxidant capacity and total soluble solids of bell peppers (Capsicum annuum L.). The 12 mixtures formulated, with eight replications, were distributed in a completely randomized design. Data were statistically analyzed by analysis of variance and means were compared by test Tukey 5%. All variables were significantly affected (p ≤ 0.001). Fruits with highest phenolic content were developed in the mixtures M2, M5 and M6 with 538.76, 541.54 and 565.04 mg GAE•100 kg −1 DW, respectively. Antioxidant capacity of fruits was increased with mixtures M2, M5, M6 and M7 with values of 934.48, 942.04, 921.69 and 924.17 μM TEAC•g −1 DW, respectively. The soluble solids content was higher in mixtures M1 and M2 with values of 4.93 and 4.97 ˚Brix, respectively. It was concluded that the variables studied were favored when applying, as sources of fertilization, mixtures of these organic manures with river sand, which could represent a suitable alternative for food production with quality nutraceutical.

“…The highest antioxidant activity was obtained in plants with a dose of 10 tons ha -1 compost. The results obtained by Aminifard et al (2013) prove that compost has a strong impact on fruit quality and on the antioxidant compounds of pepper plants under field conditions. For these reasons, the compost may be regarded as a preliminary bioprocessing stage to improve the antioxidant effect of the fruit and the quality of the pepper.…”

“…These include polyphenols (phenolic acids and a large group of flavonoids and anthocyanins), vitamins A and C, tocopherols, carotenoids, organic acids, calcium, selenium, chlorophyllins, glutathione, indoles, phytates, thiocyanates, and linoleic acid isomers (Szajdek and Borowska 2004). Research shows that substrates rich in humic compounds increase the quantity of antioxidants in plants (Aminifard et. al 2013, Jarosz 2006, Rimmer 2006a, Shiow and Hsin Shan 2003.…”

“…al 2013, Jarosz 2006, Rimmer 2006a, Shiow and Hsin Shan 2003. From research by Aminifard et al (2013) it follows that the antioxidant effect of the fruit and the quality of sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) depends on the level of the compost dose (0, 5, 10 and 15 tons ha -1 ). The highest antioxidant activity was obtained in plants with a dose of 10 tons ha -1 compost.…”

Soil is one of the most important elements of the natural environment, it is characterized by the highest resistance to degradation. It is the first element in the trophic chain and may have different effects on the health condition of people, primarily through the consumption of plant raw materials. One of the effects of soil contamination is the formation of excess free radicals in cells, which leads to oxidative stress. Free radicals contribute to the damage of lipids, proteins, mitochondrial and nuclear DNA and also to disorders in the signalling pathways responsible for the broad spectrum of cellular responses. The result of this is the emergence of many diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular disorders, osteoporosis, inflammation, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease. However, it is possible for people to protect themselves from the excess of free radicals found in soils and cultivate plants in the best quality soils. The best way to assess soil quality is to determine its total antioxidant capacity using the different methods available (FRAP method, CUPRAC method, FOLIN-CIOCALTE method, ABTS + method, DPPH + method). Such designations make it possible to assess the soil in terms of its suitability for the production of high-quality food or the possible need for reclamation. It should be noted that soil quality may be improved by adding antioxidant compounds to it, which in turn will increase the amount of antioxidants in agricultural raw materials. One of the ways to achieve this is balanced fertilization, especially organic, but also mineral.

“…The findings of increases in chemical characters quality of pepper fruits with NPK mineral application are in agreement with those reported by El-Bassiony et al (2010). Also, many investigators found increases in chemical characters quality of pepper fruits by application with chicken manure such as those reported by Aminifard et al (2013); Khandaker et al (2017). This result may be attributed to the synchronization of availability of the proper forms of nutritive elements via organic or inorganic fertilization.…”

Two greenhouse experiments were conducted during 2014/ 2015 and 2015/2016 seasons in the Experimental Station Farm, Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Aswan University, Egypt on a sandy textured soil under unheated plastic houses. The target fertilization program seeks to achieve the best combination of various organic and NPK mineral fertilization that lead to the highest yield and quality of produced sweet pepper plant ''Lama Star F 1 hybrid'' especially during the winter season. Therefore, 12 treatments were arranged in a Split plot layout in complete randomize block design with three replicates. Chicken manure at the rates of (10, 15 and 20m 3 /fed.) were randomly arranged in the main plots, while NPK mineral fertilization at rates of (0:0:0, 50:30:50, 100:40:80, and 150:50:110 Kg N:P 2 O 5 :K 2 O/fed., respectively, were randomly distributed in the subplots. The obtained results demonstrated that the treatment combination of chicken manure at 20 m 3 / fed. Plus either 150:50:110 or 100:40:80 Kg. NPK/fed. brought about the highest significant mean values of most studied characters as vegetative growth characters (i.e. plant height, number of leaves/plant, the number of branches /plant and plant fresh weight); yield characters {i.e. No. fruits /plant, average fruit weight (g), early yield/m 2 (kg) and total yield/m 2 (kg)}; fruit quality (i.e. TSS %,vitamin C, and non-reducing fruit sugars); chemical analysis characters (viz,a, b and total chlorophyll and N, P, K contents in leaves and fruits ) during both seasons of the study as compared to the other treatments. Based upon, the reported results, it is possible to conclude that, the combination among 20 m 3 /fed. of chicken manure plus either 150:50:110 or 100:40:80 Kg. NPK/fed. considered as the optimal combination treatment whereas it gave the highest mean values of vegetative growth characters, yield and its components and fruit quality of pepper plants grown under plastic houses conditions at Aswan governorate.
