“…Rotowa et al (2017) conducted a study to identify the effect of organic and mineral fertilizer treatments on the growth of Moringa olifera seedlings, and ultimately, they found that the highest growth traits of Moringa olifera seedlings recorded in poultry manure and then cow dung treatment. Awosan and Morakinyo (2020) demonstrated that the highest significant value for seedling height, leaves number and branches number of Deinbollia pinnata were achieved when the species was manured by organic fertilizer (cow dung), while the control had the highest mean value in collar diameter. James, (2020) demonstrated that organic fertilizer application had a positive effect on the seedling height, basal diameter, leaf number and leaf area of Eucalyptus torelliana seedlings.…”

“…Han et al (2016) reported that the mean dry weight of the stems and leaves of yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera L.) were significantly enhanced after application of a mixed of animal manures (1000 g.m -2 ; mixture of poultry manure, cattle manure, swine manure, and sawdust) or NPK fertilizer (urea, 30 g.m -2 ; fused superphosphate, 70 g.m -2 ; potassium chloride, 15 g.m -2 ), compared with the control. Awosan and Morakinyo (2020) demonstrated that organic fertilizer (cow dung) gave the highest significant value for stem, leaf and root dry weight of Deinbollia pinnata seedlings. Hamad et al (2020) informed that the highest significant value of stem and leaf dry weight of Brachychiton populneus seedlings were achieved when the seedlings treated with 4 g NPK fertilizer.…”

In nursery stage, some silvicultural treatments have been applied to produce high quality of forest seedlings. Fertilizer application is one of the most significant treatments that effects on the growth and development of the seedlings. This study was performed in early November 2019 to early April 2020.The paper evaluates the effects of organic and inorganic fertilizers on the growth of Eucalyptus microtheca seedling under nursery growing conditions. Organic fertilizer was used with three levels of animal manure, which are 0, 50 and 100 g/pot, and three levels of inorganic (compound chemical) fertilizer, which include 0, 1 and 2 g/pot of NPK (15:15:15), and each treatments were replicated three times due to availability limited numbers of Eucalyptus microtheca seedlings in the nursery. Vegetative growth parameters taken include, seedling height (cm), leaf number, stem diameter (mm) and biomass (g). The results obtained from the experiment showed that the effects of the treatments were significantly difference from the control for all the parameters accessed. Results of this research concluded that the best seedling growth performance and biomass allocation of E. microtheca were obtained from the seedlings that fertilized with 50 g organic matter and 2 g NPK fertilizer. The results will help nursery man to produce healthy and a high
