“…In the present study, the highest yield (16.40 ton ha-1) was obtained when 50% poultry manure was applied in combination with 50% NPK fertilizers. In agreement with Kibria et al [20], application of 50% NPK+50 PM proved most effective in ensuring good performance in terms of growth and fresh fruit yield of ladies finger in the present study. Kibria et al [20] found that fresh fruit yield of ladies finger with application of full poultry manure @30 ton ha -1 and 50% NPK+50% PM (full NPK @120 kg N, 60 kg P and 80 Kg K ha-1) were statistically similar but significantly higher than that with the control and full kitchen compost (@ 30 ton ha -1 and 50% NPK+ 50% compost.…”

A field experiment was conducted in the crop field of the Department of Soil Science, University of Chittagong, Bangladesh to study the effects of biogas plant residues, poultry manure and NPK fertilizer on growth and yield of ladies finger (Abelmoschus esculentus L Moench). There were six treatments -control (no fertilizer/poultry manure/compost), full NPK @ 120 kg N ha -1 , 60 kg P ha -1 and 80 kg K ha -1 , full biogas plant residues(BPR) @ 30 ton ha -1 , 50% NPK+ 50% BPR, full poultry manure (PM) @ 30 ton ha -1 , 50% NPK+ 50% PM. The treatments were arranged in randomized block design with three replications. The data collected were number of leaves, plant height, fruit length, fruit circumference, number of fruits and fruit yield. The results showed that full NPK fertilizer did not significantly increase the growth and yield of ladies finger over control. Compared to control addition of full poultry manure and its combination with NPK fertilizer resulted in 6.28 to 7.29 fold increases in yield. were obtained in treatments with biogas plant residues compared to treatments with poultry manure. Our result indicate that poultry manure can be used in combination with the application of inorganic fertilizers for better growth and yield of ladies finger in the valley soils of Chittagong.

“…Application of biogas residue increased the average leaf area as in the case of T2, but average leaf area was decreased at higher application of residue as in T3, indicating that T3 might have had an inhibiting effect due to the high N level of biogas residue. The finding is in agreement with Kibria et al [35], whom wrote that the application of 50% NPK+50 PM proved most effective in ensuring good performance in terms of growth and fresh fruit yield of ladies finger. Olaniyi et al [36] reported a similar trend, that growth of okra (ladies finger) plant was markedly influenced by the application of organominerals, NPK fertilizer and their combination as observed from the increased plant height and number of leaves compared to control.…”

This paper investigates the bioconversion of mixed fruit waste as a potential source of biogas and organic fertilizer. The initial and final total solids (TS) of substrates were 19.15 and 8.76 % respectively. The volatile solids (VS) of the substrate before and after digestion were 95.11 and 54.94% respectively. The TS/VS lost in fermenter was found to be 0.16. On the sixtieth day of planting the maximum plant height was T3 250.31 cm for 50:50 % NPK fertilizers and neither biogas residue, followed by 100% NPK fertilizer with 242.65 cm, control with no NPK fertilizer nor biogas residue of 241.73 cm while 100% biogas residue has the lowest with 203.65 cm. The result for 1000 grain weight shows that 50:50 % NPK fertilizer and biogas residue has the highest weight of 276.34 grams, followed by !00 NPK fertilizer with 254.78 grams, 100% biogas residue has 240.12 grams while the control with no NPK nor biogas residue added has the least weight of 188.56 grams. The study also shows that residue left after the production of biogas is a valuable organic fertilizer that can be used as an alternative to inorganic fertilizer in maize production and soil fertility. Yield of maize was significantly increased over that of the control. Markedly influenced by the application of organo-minerals, NPK fertilizer and their combination as observed from the increased plant height, diameter of plant stem, leaf area and Weight of 1000 kernels compared to the control. Biogas residue has therefore proved to be environmentally friendly and an effective fertilizer. The use of locally available, nutrient rich organic sources is an effective means for improving soil fertility and increasing crop yield in view of the escalating cost of inorganic fertilizers and low fertilizer use efficiency of crops.

“…Inferior results were obtained in T 3 (waste of poultry at the rate of 5 ton/ha) when linked by all other treatments. Kibria et al (2013) observed that joined usage of poultry manure waste plus chemical fertilizer not only increased yield but also plant growth. The integration of poultry manure with inorganic source also improves the availability of nutrient to maize and its use efficiency (Ayeni and Adetunji, 2010).…”

I n Pakistan, maize is the most significant crop next rice and wheat. Maize is called "king of grain crops". Its average production is 3428 kg ha -1 (Anonymous, 2008). Along with grains it is also grown for fodder (Khaliq et al., 2004). In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) it is cultivated in 55.01 % of the total area with 63.01 % of yield production whereas in Punjab30-35% yield is achieved from 38% of the total area. In Sindh and Baluchistan, it is produced with 3% and 5% yield of the total cultivated area (GOP, 2015). Maize production in 2010 in Pakistan was 36581000 tons from 9 lac 81 thousand ha. Maize grains are the source of minerals, vitamins and ashes. It contains fats (5.8%), proteins (10%), starch (72%), sugar (3%) and burning ash (1.7%). It is used for the production of cosmetics, flakes, syrup, alcohol, starch and fats. The origin of maize plant is exotic South USA (Chaudhary et al., 2014). Pakistani soils are Abstract | Pakistani soils are deficient in organic matter. Organic matter in the soil affects soil properties and processes. The adequate carbon level of the soil is 1.29 % but in Pakistani soils carbon is less than the adequate level because of high temperature and low rainfall. Different sources of organic matters such as farm yard manure, poultry waste, rice husk etc. can increase productiveness of soil. Combined usage of poultry waste material and chemical fertilizer improved maize growth and health of soil. This experiment comprised of 11 treatments applied under completely randomized design like, T1 = chemical fertilizers at recommended rate, T2 = chemical fertilizers at half recommended rate, T3 = waste of poultry at the rate of 5 ton/ha, T4 = waste of poultry at the rate of 7.5 ton/ha, T5 = waste of poultry at the rate of 10 ton/ha, T6 = T1 + T3, T7 = T1 + T4, T8 = T1 + T5, T9 = T2 + T3, T10 = T2 + T4 and T11 = T2 + T5. At maturity and different agronomic and yield parameters were recorded before harvesting maize plants. Laboratory analysis for collected soil samples was carried out. Data were statistically analyzed. Results indicated that treatment (T8) produce maximum plant height (115.0 cm), biomass (64.34 g) and root length (27.083 cm) of maize. Organic matter content (1.78 %), phosphorus (16.67 ppm) and potassium (213.0 ppm) concentration in soil was also increased in this treatment.
