“…A well‐documented benefit of OMA use is as a fertilizer that impacts productivity and crop nutrition. Manure has been used to provide sufficient nitrogen (N) to orchard crops (Mordoğan et al, 2013; Preusch & Tworkoski, 2003). In apples ( Malus domestica ), application of bark mulch decreased apple leaf N while boosting leaf phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) (Neilsen et al, 2014).…”

“…Manure and mulch in combination with inorganic N fertigation all increased yields in relative to N fertigation alone (Amiri & Fallahi, 2009; Forge et al, 2013; Sanchez et al, 2003). Often, however, OMA sources do not increase yield compared with conventional fertilizer (Neilsen et al, 2014) and may improve or not negatively affect fruit quality (Mordoğan et al, 2013; Peck et al, 2009; Roosta & Mohammadi, 2013).…”

Advancing conservation agriculture depends on understanding nutrient dynamics of organic matter amendments (OMA) on no‐till soil. This field incubation study compared surface‐applied composted dairy manure (CM), green waste compost (GWC) and an unamended control from March to September in 2015 and 2016 using a RCBD in a California almond (Prunus dulcis) orchard. Measurements included OMA nutrient release rates, changes in soil organic carbon (SOC), total N (TN) and inorganic N, P and K availability using in‐season soil sampling and collection of ion exchange resin (IER) membranes from 0 to 10 cm depth, and cumulative N and P availability using soil IER cores from 0 to 50 cm depth. We hypothesized OMA sources with a lower initial C:N increase soil N availability, greater soluble phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) concentrations increase P and K availability, and all OMA sources increase SOC with the greatest N recovery in the TN pool. No differences were observed in C, N and P release rates, while the K release rate was the greatest. In‐season N availability showed no effect but P and K availability differed as evidenced by greater IER adsorption and soil extractable P and K. Both OMA sources significantly increased in SOC and TN. Net N mineralization from OMA sources ranged from 0.7% to 8.0% of applied N and total N recovery in TN and inorganic N pools increased based on the initial C:N. These results advance our understanding of nutrient dynamics while conserving the soil due to the no‐till practice of surface‐applied OMA.

The study was conducted in Kirkuk Governorate during the growth season 2022 to investigate effect of organic fertilizer Travert Evo (0, 5, 10) ml. L −1 and spraying with Kinetin (0, 150, 300) mg. L −1 and Boron (0, 40, 80) mg. L−1 in some fruit characteristics of fig cv. white Adriatic trees were treated at growth start, after fruit setting and a month later. experiment was included (81) treatments with (3) replicates adopted according randomized complete block design R.B.C.D. result indicated that application of organic 10 ml.L−1 and spraying with kinetin 300 mg.L−1 or boron 80 mg. L−1, single or interaction led to a high significant increase in TSS, total acidity, total sugar, reducing sugar, sucrose, vitamin c.as well as treatment of organic 10 ml.L−1 + kinetin 300 mg.L−1+ boron 80 mg. L−1gave a highest result compared another treatment which gave 19.68%, 0.255%, 19.33%, 17.16%, 2.17%, 7.35%, sequentially.

“…This fruit crop has been gaining commercial interest around the world, and under intensive cultivation under soilless and glasshouse culture yields reach from 81 t ha -1 [6] up to 109.5 t ha -1 [7]. Under this production system and other, more conventional systems [8,9], organic or combined fertilization is required to enhance fig productivity, regardless of plant guiding, pruning, pest, disease and weed control, irrigation [10], and plant nutrition [3,9,11,12]. The seasonal variation of macro-and micronutrients in high-and low-vigor fig tree orchards in California was studied [11], but no production values were offered.…”

Aims: The effect of a complete NPK matrix on leaf nutrient concentrations and dry biomass of ‘Black Mission’ fig plant organs was tested under an intensive culture system and protected environment. Study Design: A randomized complete block design with four blocks was employed. Place and Duration of Study: The experiment was conducted from April to November 2016 at the Campo Experimental La Laguna, located in Matamoros, Coahuila, Mexico. This research station belongs to the Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Forestales, Agrícolas y Pecuarias (INIFAP) of Mexico. The experiment was set up under a macro tunnel equipped with a shade mesh with 50% sunlight attenuation. Methodology: Two-year-old fig plants (cv. ‘Black Mission’) previously propagated from stem cuttings were used. There were three application rates each for N (0, 80, and 160 kg ha-1), P (0, 40 and 80 kg ha-1), and K (0, 80, and 160 kg ha-1) arranged in a balanced factorial matrix of 27 treatments. After harvest, leaf samples were collected to determine nutrient concentrations and they were split into roots, shoots, leaves, and fruit Results: The greatest total dry biomass was produced by the interaction of 80 kg ha-1 N and 40 kg ha-1 P and yielded the following leaf nutrient concentrations (mean ± SD): N 2.9 ± 0.3%, P 0.11 ± 0.01%, K 2.1 ± 0.4%, Ca 1.4 ± 0.7%, Mg 0.34 ± 0.03%, Fe 166.4 ± 49.5 mg kg-1, Cu 6.3 ± 1.7 mg kg-1, Mn 83.3 ± 20.9 mg kg-1, and Zn 22. 6 ± 3.8 mg kg-1. Application of 80 kg ha-1 N and 40 kg ha-1 P could be suggested for commercial fig production. Conclusion: Application of 80 kg ha-1 N and 40 kg ha-1 P could be tested under similar commercial production systems; however, the addition of supplemental K deserves further study.
