Title: Impact of organic fertilizers on yield and nutrient uptake of cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata)
Abstract: Goal of the study was to investigate nutrient uptake, growth and yield of the cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata) variety‘Atlas-70’as influenced by the application of different organic fertilizers. Randomized complete block design (RCBD) comprising five treatments with three replications were executed to conduct the study. Treatments were T1= Soil Test Based 100% Recommended Dose of Chemical Fertilizer (RDCF), T2= 5 t/ha Cow dung (CD) + integrated plant nutrient system (IPNS) based Chemical fertilizers (CF), T3=5 t/ha Poultry Manure (PM) + integrated plant nutrient system (IPNS) based Chemical fertilizers (CF), T4= 5 t/ha vermicompost (VC) + integrated plant nutrient system (IPNS) based Chemical fertilizers (CF), T5= Absolute control. Results of the experiment showed that the same amount of N, P, K and S from cow dung, poultry manure and vermicompost showed significant differences (P≤0.05) on plant height, unfolded leaves, head circumference, marketable yield, total yield and nutrient content in cabbage. Organic fertilizers (cow dung, poultry manure and vermicompost) resulted better nutrient uptake as compared to the chemical fertilizers. However, vermicompost tended to be the potential organic source for higher yield and nutrient uptake of cabbage and thus is suitable substitute of the most commonly used nitrogen (urea) sources for the production of cabbage.
