Yield responses and nutrient uptakes of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) as affected by liquid organic fertilizer and vermicompost
Main Article Content
Abstract
Results indicated that the application of 15 Mg ha-1 vermicompost was considered as the best dosage for increasing pod weight, grain weight of groundnuts as well as N, P, and K uptakes. Moreover, the use of liquid organic fertilizer did not increased growth and yields of organically grown groundnuts. The use of liquid organic fertilizer did not improve the effectiveness the use of vermicompost in promoting growth and yields of organically grown groundnuts.
