Minerals Rich Organic Manure (MROM)

International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology, 2023
Abstract: Indiscriminate use of synthetic chemical fertilizers over past few decades in India and other countries of the world, has become a cause of great concern to maintain long term soil fertility, the soil environment, and its components. The soil microbial community plays a major and important role in fostering soil health and plant growth. While

Cattle Manure Enhances Methanogens Diversity and Methane Emissions Compared to Swine Manure under Rice Paddy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Livestock manures are broadly used in agriculture to improve soil quality. However, manure application can increase the availability of organic carbon, thereby facilitating methane (CH4) production. Cattle and swine manures are expected to have different

UNVEILING THE NATURE OF CARBON DECOMPOSITION ON DIFFERENT ORGANIC MANURE SOURCES: THE IMPACT OF TEMPERATURE REGIMES IN A SUBTROPICAL CLIMATE [PDF]

Journal of Applied Life Sciences and Environment
Organic sources are vital for crop nutrient management, but nutrient release from organic manure depends on temperature and other factors. We conducted a laboratory incubation study to investigate how temperature (15, 25, 35°C) affects the decomposition ...
