“…Otherwise, the highest bunch weight was gained by the application of organic-N fertilizers only, whereas, the least bunch weight related to fertilizing by mineral sources. Islam et al (2017) proved that, application of mixed organic manures consisting of 10kg cowdung and 1kg mustard oilcake or 10kg poultry manure along with recommended mineral fertilizers gave higher yield with high quality of sweet orange (BARI Malta 1) rather than the alone recommended mineral fertilizers or only cowdung with recommended mineral fertilizers. Therefore, for better yield and quality production of BARI Malta 1 mixed organic manure consisting of cowdung and mustard oilcake or poultry manure along with recommended mineral fertilizers could be suggested.…”

T O EVALUATE efficacy of fertilizing with different combinations of organic fertilizers on yield, fruit quality and nutritional status of "Wonderful" pomegranate trees, a field experiment was carried out in "Hegazi farm" located in Cairo to Alexandria desert road, Egypt. during three growing seasons 2016, 2017 and 2018 on nine years old pomegranate trees cv. 'Wonderful' growing in sandy loam soil under 62% shading. Nitrogen requirements were added from different combinations of commercial organic fertilizers such: Compost (COM), Chicken Manure (CHM), Cattle Manure (CAM) and Mineral Fertilizer (MF) by the rate 40 kg actual N fed-1 with or without humic acid addition. The experiment consists of ten treatments spread in a randomized complete block design with five replicates. Fertilizing with (50% (CHM)+ 50% (COM)), (50% (COM) + 50% (CAM) and (33.3% (CHM) + 33.3% COM) + 33.3% (CAM) + humic) enhanced vegetative growth, yield. Fertilizing with (50% (CHM) + 50% (COM) + humic) and (33.3% (CHM) +33.3% (COM) +33.3% (CAM) + humic) improved fruit physical properties like (arils weight, juice weight and juice volume). Fertilizing with, (50% (COM) + 50% (CAM) + humic) gave the highest content of TSS%, TSS/acid ratio & ascorbic acid and least content of acidity. So it could be recommended by, fertilizing "Wonderful" pomegranate trees by one of these treatments (50% CHM +50% COM + humic), (50% COM +50%CAM+ humic) and (33.3% CHM+33.3% COM+33.3% CAM +humic) by the rate of 40 kg actual N fed-1 to improve yield, fruit quality and nutritional status.

“…Malta (Citrus sinensis) is one of the pivotal fruits, due to its nutritional enrichment specially vitamins and minerals and also a fruit having high demand in Bangladesh (Islam et al, 2017;Milon, 2019). The initial stage of a systematically developed young malta orchard has plenty of space that farmers can use to grow various seasonal crops to increase the productivity, profitability and net income of the land.…”

Sustainable agricultural practices like agroforestry systems are being advocated to overcome various problems of farming. A young malta (Citrus sinensis) orchard (3 years old) was transformed into a fruit tree-based agroforestry system in which the performances of summer (okra and Indian spinach) and autumn (mungbean and kangkong) crops and year-round spices (ginger and turmeric) were evaluated following randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replication each and eventually compared between agroforestry systems and respective sole cropping (control) from March 2018 to February 2019 at BSMRAU field. The experimental results revealed that the yields of the associated crops deprived when grown at the closest row position from the bed of malta tree and spices. Yields of okra, Indian spinach, mungbean, kangkong, turmeric and ginger were reduced by 7.57, 6.52, 14.86, 13.26, 9.70 and 16.23%, respectively under agroforestry system as compared to control. However, malta yield was increased by 5.35% in agroforestry system than control trees. The findings also indicated that the crops in agroforestry system was less hindered by the shade effect of malta trees due to less dense canopy of young malta trees. In comparison to sole cropping system, the higher benefit-cost ratio (BCR) (2.93) and land equivalent ratio (LER) (2.83) were obtained in the studied agroforestry system that explicated higher system productivity and land uses. Notable improvement of total nitrogen and organic matter were obtained in the soil under agroforestry system. Therefore, malta-based agroforestry system can be a promising alternative to provide higher economic benefits, boosting food and nutritional security, improving soil nutrient status and utilization of land.
