| The aim of the study was to assess the effects of groundnut shells on soil properties, growth and yield of maize. The study was carried out in Jalingo, Taraba State, North-Eastern Nigeria in July, 2019. Treatments in the study were four doses of groundnut shells (0.0, 2.5, 5.0 and 7.5 t ha-1); arranged in a randomized complete block design, replicated four times. Each plot was 2.0 m × 2.0 m with 0.5 m gap between the plots and replicates. Crushed groundnut shells were applied on a dry matter basis at the rates of 0, 2.5, 5.0 and 7.5 t ha-1 28 days before planting maize. Seeds were planted on prepared land treated with crushed groundnut shells. Soil properties were determined at harvest, maize growth parameters were determined at 50% flowering and maize... |

| The application of organic fertilizer to the soil is considered as good agricultural practice because it improves the fertility of the soil and plant quality. The aim of the study was to produce compost tea using poultry droppings, cow dungs and water leaf (Talinum triangulare) in a ratio 5:5:1 and evaluate its effects on soil properties, growth and yield of Amaranthus hybridus. The study was carried out in Jalingo, Taraba State, North-Eastern Nigeria in July, 2019. The experimental variables include control (no treatment), 1 kg of compost per 10 L of water compost tea, 1 kg of compost per 20 L of water compost tea, 1 kg of compost per 30 L of water compost tea, 500 kg ha-1solid compost and 500kg ha-1 NPK fertilizer. The treatment combinations were done in... |
