The effects of lime, fertilizer and manure applications on soil organic matter status and soil physical properties are of importance to agricultural sustainability. Agricultural Water Management, Vol. The effect of independent application of The effect of independent application of OMF at different rates and chemical fertilizer (CF) was investigated in the screen house. Organic materials such as FYM have traditionally Their effects are complex and many interactions can occur. Effect of organic manure and fertilizer on soil water and crop yields in newly-built terraces with loess soils in a semi-arid environment. soil chemical properties and nutrient composition of pepper. 117, Issue. The mixed fertilizer treatment was the best for tomato production, which could be interpreted as the release of nutrients from organic and inorganic fertilizers at different times. ... We conclude here that the application of N fertilizer improved soil microbial biomass and respiratory activity. fertilizers (Zn, Fe) on agronomic traits and yield components of chickpea, an experiment was carried out at the highland semi‑arid regions in Piranshahr district ( 36° 40ʹ N, 45° 08ʹ E; 1840 m). Effect of Intensive Inorganic Fertilizer Application on Microbial Properties in a Paddy Soil of Subtropical China. , p. 123. The negative impacts of chemical fertilizers, coupled with escalating prices, have led to growing interests in the use of organic fertilizers as a source of nutrients [2, 3]. 18 determined the nematode community distribution within aggregates under different application rates of manure, the variation in nutrient status and in soil nematode communities within aggregates following the combined application of inorganic fertilizers with different organic materials remains unclear. Although Jiang et al. Previous article in issue; Next article in issue; Key words. In the short-term, liming can result in dispersion of clay colloids and formation of surface crusts. But, microbial diversity was reduced when excessive urea was applied in the tested paddy soil. Fertilizer treatment (mixed or IPNS) produced a higher yield compared to organic fertilizers and inorganic fertilizers alone in cabbage and in eggplant . Effect of Combining Cattle Manure and Inorganic P-fertilizer on Soil Properties and Maize Yield in Acidic Soils in Beira Corridor, Mozambique Muambole, Arlindo Abstract: Mozambique lags behind all other Southern and Eastern African countries in maize production leading to maize imports.

inorganic fertilizers leads to deterioration in soil chemi- cal, physical, and biological properties, and soil health [2].
