Nutrient Status and Ameliorating Effects of MORINGA Leaves or Poultry Droppings on Soil Ph and Garden Egg Yield

Year: 2014

Type: article

Abstract: Sustainable production of crops on tropical soils requires soil amendment to remediate soil acidity status and raise fertility level. Industrial lime and inorganic fertilizers are either not available or too expensive to buy. This study was carried out with the objective of investigating the effects of two organic manures, Moringa (Moringa oleifera Lam.) leaves and poultry droppings, on soil acidity amelioration and increased fertility for sustained production of garden egg (Solanum aethiopicum L.). The field trials were conducted at the Teaching and
