“…Also, this fertilization treatment increased the TSS and vitamin C of juice about 8% and 31% compared to use check treatment, respectively. These results are in line with those obtained by Mosa et al (2014), El-Salhy et al (2015 and Amin et al (2017). They revealed that there is a potential benefit due to bio and organic-N in the commercial production of pomegranate for its effective.…”

“…So, it requires frequent use and high concentration which becomes an expensive item for orchard management and environmental pollution. Therefore, modern technologies that are based on organic and biological production and that are dependent on the use of organic and biofertilization should be used while reducing the use of chemical nitrogen fertilizers, as well as their safety for soil, human, animals and environment (Verma, 1990;Mosa et al, 2014;El-Salhy et al, 2015 andAmin et al, 2017).…”

“…Due to its multipurpose medicinal uses it is also known as "Dadima" in Ayurveda (Paranjpe, 2001) and as "super fruit" in the global functional food industry (Martins et al, 2006). Juice of pomegranates have antioxidants i.e., polyphenols, tannins and anthocyanins, hence can be used to control of cancer and chronic inflammation (Michel et al, 2005;Ephraim andRobert, 2007 andAmin et al, 2017).…”

The current investigation was executed at in a private the Orchard, located at El-Badary district, Assiut Governorate, Egypt, to study the effect of organic and bio-form fertilizers on vegetative growth, nutrient status and fruiting of Manfalouty pomegranate trees during 2019 and 2020 seasons. The experiment was arranged in a complete randomized block design with five replications and it consisted of five treatments.The results can be summarized as follow:Using the recommended dose of nitrogen (RND) via thrice form (mineral plus organic and bio-form) significantly increased the shoot length compared to use RND via mineral-N fertilizer (check treatment). All fertilization treatments significantly increased leaf area, chlorophyll and contents of N, P and K in leaves compared to check treatment. The fertilization treatments significantly increased the yield/tree and significantly decreased the fruit splitting and sunburn percentage compared to use mineral-N source only. Fertilization with any twice form (organic plus mineral)or thrice form (organic + bio + mineral) significantly improved the fruit properties by increasing the fruit weight, arils percentage and total soluble solids as well as sugar, anthocyanin and vitamin C contents and decreasing the total acidity compared to using the check treatment.It is clear from the current results the importance of fertilization through organic and bio-form for pomegranates productivity, via improve the fruit quality which reflects on induce the increase packable yield. In addition, such fertilization treatments reduce the cost of production and environmental pollution.

“…Similarly, Ray et al (2014) reported that the fruit of pomegranate plants treated with 300-g N + 1-kg neem cake per plant showed high TSS (12.29Bx), total sugar (10.74%), reducing sugar (9.78%), non-reducing sugar (1.09%), and ascorbic acid (21.93 mg 100 mL 1 juice) contents as well as low acidity (0.39%). Amin, Ali & El-Moneim (2017) also showed that a mixture of organic and biofertilizers (organic N and PK raw mineral rocky materials at 2,000 g plus NPK biofertilizer at 300 mL plant 1 ) provided the greatest improvement in all of the studied growth parameters for pomegranate, with the promotion of mineral composition and total chlorophyll noted in young trees treated with mixed organic materials (NPK at 2,000 g plant 1 ) and biofertilizers (NPK at 300 mL plant 1 ). Furthermore, Aly & Zagzog (2019) found that the application of biofertilizer and organic fertilizer enhanced all vegetative growth parameters of Zaghloul date palm ( Phoenix dactylifera L.), with the replacement of mineral fertilizer in this scenario also reducing pollution.…”

Background The aim of this study was to determine the individual and interactive effects of various irrigation regimes and fertilizer treatments on the quality of the Wonderful pomegranate cultivar. Methods Two field experiments were conducted over two consecutive growing seasons (2018 and 2019) to determine the individual and interactive effects of various organic and mineral fertilizer treatments on the fruit quality of the Wonderful pomegranate under various irrigation conditions. A split-plot experimental design was used, in which the main plots included three levels of irrigation (100%, 80%, and 60% of evapotranspiration) while the subplots included five fertilizer treatments with different co-application ratios of mineral and organic fertilizers. Results All tested physicochemical properties of the fruit were significantly affected by the irrigation treatment, with irrigation at 80% of evapotranspiration representing the best strategy for reducing water use and improving fruit quality. Moreover, the co-application of mineral and organic fertilizers had a significant effect on fruit quality, with 75% mineral + 25% organic fertilizer improving all of the physical and chemical properties of the fruit in both experimental seasons. Irrigation and the co-application of mineral and organic fertilizers also had a significant interaction effect on the physicochemical attributes of fruit, which further increased fruit quality. Conclusions The co-application of organic and mineral fertilizers produced better quality pomegranate fruit than mineral fertilizer alone under deficit irrigation conditions. This technique could therefore be applied to improve the fruiting of horticultural trees in arid growing regions.
