“…The effect of suchitha was visible during later period of crop growth and it may be due to the availability of nutrients at later stages of crop growth. It was reported that the application of rapid organic fertilizer (suchitha) has resulted an increase in the availability of micronutrients at the later stages of banana crop (Leno and Sudharmaidevi, 2018) [11] . Leaf area shows the photosynthetic efficiency of plants and so does the leaf area index (LAI).…”

N2 -N1 + 50% N top dressed in three splits, N3-N1+ 100% N top dressed in three splits. M5 registered superior values for leaf yield per harvest, leaf area index and the number of leaves harvested per plant was superior in M2 and was on par with M5 and M1. N1 recorded the highest number of leaves harvested per plant, Leaf Area Index. The interaction m5n1 was found significantly superior with respect to leaf yield per harvest and LAI. For leaf yield per plant, m5n1 recorded higher value and was on par with m2n1. Hence the growth media M5 and organic nutrient schedule N1 can be suggested for obtaining higher yield.

“…The rhizosphere priming effect is decisively linked with carbon and nitrogen dynamics largely contributed by the added thermochemical organic fertilizer. The efficiency of thermochemical organic fertilizer in providing a synchronous supply of essential nutrients inclusive of micronutrients during the critical growth stages of banana has been well established Leno and Sudharmaidevi, 2018). The inherently acidic soils of Kerala are predominantly deficient in secondary nutrient elements calcium and magnesium.…”

Aim: To study the carbon fractional status of the growing media and to find out the best organic nitrogen source for fortification of thermochemical organic fertilizer, the manurial constituent of growing media for container cultivation of okra and tomato. Methodology: Container cultivation of okra and tomato were done in completely randomised design. Treatments included fortification with farmyard manure, neem cake, groundnut cake, poultry manure, vermicompost, coir pith compost, hatchery waste organic fertilizer, urea and unfortified thermochemical organic fertilizer. Carbon fractions, viz. total organic carbon, permanganate oxidisable labile carbon, microbial biomass carbon and soil respiration of the growing media were analysed. The yield and yield attributes of the crops were determined. Results: Irrespective of the organic source of nitrogen used, the fortified thermochemical organic fertilizer imparted a high status of total organic carbon to the growing media. Fortification with farmyard manure enhanced labile carbon, soil microbial biomass carbon and soil respiration over those fortified with other organic and inorganic sources. Container grown okra in a growing media with thermochemical organic fertilizer fortified with farmyard manure out yielded urea based fortification by 55.96%. Tomato grown in coir pith compost fortified growing media enhanced yield by 27.37% over the groundnut cake fortified growing media. Linear regression models of labile carbon with microbial biomass carbon (R2 = 0.8946) and with soil respiration (R2 = 0.9053) were significant and with a good fit. Interpretation: Fortification of thermochemical organic fertilizer with various organic sources of nitrogen imparted a high total soil organic carbon status. Synergic effect of the farmyard manure fortification was evident in labile carbon, microbial biomass carbon and soil respiration. Growing media fortified with farmyard manure was ideal for container cultivated okra whereas that with coir pith proved to be ideal for tomato, a solanaceous vegetable crop.
