“…As it is known that organic contain essential nutrients of N, P, and K, which support the growth of Pegagan plants so that growth yields and increased biomass are obtained. It is in accordance with previous studies stating that the increase in plant weight was caused by the higher nitrogen content in the formulated fertilizer because it increased the rate of photosynthesis by increasing the chlorophyll content, and the accumulation of carbohydrates in the leaves increased plant weight [11].…”

The demand for Pegagan plants to be used as medicine continues to increase yearly. One alternative to increase the productivity of Pegagan is by giving organic fertilizer. Therefore, it is essential to study the influences of giving biofertilizer and organic fertilizer based on the dose used in increasing the growth and biomass of Pegagan. Here, two treatments were applied: biofertilizer (BF): 0, 1, 2, and 3 ml/L and organic fertilizer (OF): 0, 3.650, 7.301, and 10.952 tons/ha with three replications. If the significant variance were fulfilled, Duncan’s Multiple Distance Test with a level of 5% would be continued. The results demonstrated that the administration of biofertilizer revealed no notable effect on all observed parameters. The interaction between biofertilizer and organic fertilizer also had no notable impact on all parameters. In conclusion, applying organic fertilizer could notably improve the number of primary tendrils, leaf fresh weight per plot, and root fresh weight per plot.

“…Supper phosphate (19% P2O5) at the rate of 45 kg P ha⁻ ¹ was applied during soil preparation. Potassium fertilizer in the shape of potassium sulphate (51% K2O) at the rate of 200 kg ha⁻ ¹ was applied in three equal doses, at the same times as nitrogen fertilizer application, these doses application according to [16,17].…”

This study was conducted in the Agriculture research station of Chamchamal in Sulymaniyah / Iraq, on 3rd July 2022. Was designed using a completely randomized block design (CRBD) 4*4 with three replications. The arrangement of treatment is as follows, the first treatment was chemical fertilizer (NPK) consisting of four levels (0, 50, 75and 100) % of recommended application dose. The second treatment of two types of poultry manure (0, 4ton ha−1 domestic, 4ton ha−1 imported, and 2ton ha−1 from domestic and imported), results obtained from this study can conclude as follows. All parameters (Plant height, Number of leaves, Leaf area, Stem diameter, Biomass, and Chlorophyll content in heaves) significantly differ is by levels of chemical and organic fertilizers compared with control, the combination between 50% of recommended chemical fertilizer and 2 ton ha−1 of both organic fertilizer gave the highest value for all parameters.

“…One of the greatest problems facing most African countries is the inability to grow enough food for her ever-increasing population. Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most important cereals crops that provide staple food to address the growing shortage of food for a large number of human populations in the worldwide (Hossain et al, 2012). In the global, maize occupies the third after wheat and rice.…”

“…Thus, there is a tendency to use another source of fertilizer such as organic fertilizer. Organic fertilizers such as compost, farmyard and animal manures may be used as a substitute for chemical fertilizer (Hossain et al, 2012;Mohamedelnour et al, 2018). The addition of compost made from plant residues enhanced crop production by improving nutrient availability for plant, as the result of improving soil properties (Liu et al, 2013;Olowoake et al, 2018;Khan et al, 2019).…”

There is need to convert mesquite (Prosopis spp.) into a useful product instead of constituting a menace to agricultural lands. Thus, it was suggested using mesquite as compost. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of composted mesquite on some soil properties, vegetative growth parameters and nutrient contents of maize. The compost was made from mesquite tress through aerobic methods and was applied at five rates: 0 (T1), 10 (T2), 20 (T3), 30 (T4) and 40 (T5) t ha-1 equivalents. A pot experiment was carried out in a complete randomized design, with four replications. Results shows that T5 is positively affected both of plant and soil compared with other treatments. T5 is significantly (p < 0.05) increased plant height (107±0.147 cm), number of leaves (9.0±0.250), stem diameter (1.3±0.014 cm), dry matter (48±0.026 g plant-1), total N (8.27±0.006 g kg-1), P (5.35±0.009 g kg-1) and K (38.5±0.008 g kg-1), compared with control treatment were (81±0.326 cm), (6.0±0.250), (0.6±0.006 cm), (30±0.712 g plant-1), (3.25±0.009 g kg-1) (1.85±0.007 g kg-1) and (25.5±0.013 g kg-1), respectively. While, soil analysed for pH (8.21±0.009), EC (1.32±0.010 dS m-1), N (2.15±0.006 g kg-1), P (4.90±0.006 mg kg-1), K (19.53±0.004 mg kg-1) and SOM (6.72±0.004 g kg-1), where in control treatments were (8.51±0.008), EC (0.77±0.008 dS m-1), (0.84±0.004 g kg-1), (1.64±0.007 mg kg-1), (11.01±0.022 mg kg-1) and (3.4±0.006 g kg-1). This study showed that composted mesquite application offers the potential to enhance soil quality, improve maize growth and nutrients content. Moreover, T5 (40 ton ha-1) showed a significant superiority compared with other treatments.
