Purpose: Although the popularity of liquid organic fertilizers (LOFs) has considerably increased recently, there have been concerns over their usage due to low nitrogen content. This study aims to discuss the current developments in nitrogen-enriched LOFs that address the above limitation, subsequently promoting sustainable agricultural practices. Method: A thorough review of existing literature on nitrogen-enriched […]
Purpose: Floral waste, as a frequently overlooked resource for sustainable agriculture, can be harnessed to produce nutrient-rich soil amendments resulting in an enhancement of soil fertility and augment crop yields. This in turn can foster a circular economy, minimizing waste disposal and promoting a green economy. This study was aimed to explore the potential of […]
impact of vermicompost leachate (VCL) and inorganic fertilizer either alone or in combination on growth and biochemical parameters in Stevia rebaudiana (Bertoni) through a soilless culture system. Methods The cattle manure-based vermicompost was processed by earthworms and the resulting leachate was brewed for 48 h and then collected in the system reservoir for use in […]

Purpose: The growing adverse effects of agrochemicals on environmental health and safety warrant an examination of ecologically safe alternatives for weed control. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of rice-husk waste on the growth performance and weed management (WM) of Ocimum sanctum. Method: In a randomized complete block design with three […]
Purpose: A study was conducted to transform bovine blood, a slaughterhouse by-product, into an organic source of nitrogen, which is otherwise disposed of through sewer systems only to pollute the nearby water bodies. Method: The annual blood production in the Khulna City Corporation (KCC) slaughterhouses was estimated, blood samples were collected, and blood meals were […]
