Impact of Vermicompost as Component of Growing Medium on Phytomass Formation of Radish (Raphanus Sativus L.)

Agriculture, 2018
In Slovakia more than a half of the landfill‘s waste consist of the biodegradable waste (BDW). Therefore the BDW composting can decrease significantly the production of the landfill gas as well as the financial and space requirements for landfills ...

Compost‐Based Organic Amendments and Synthetic Fertilisers Enhance Soil Health and Crop Yield Worldwide

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fertiliser management is central to achieving sustainable increases in crop productivity while maintaining soil health. Yet, it remains unclear how chemical fertilisers, organic amendments (OAs), or their combination have comparable effects on soil health at a global scale.

Microbial Biostimulants Improve Germination, Growth and Nutrient Availability of Ornamental Kale in Sustainable Peat‐Free Cultivation

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Microbial biostimulant application increased germination, growth and nutrient availability in ornamental kale grown in both peat‐based and peat‐free substrates. Improvements in phosphorus and potassium availability and reduced bulk density in peat‐free media highlight the potential of microbial biostimulants to enhance plant establishment and support ...

Insights into the Microbiological Safety of Vermicompost and Vermicompost Tea Produced by South African Smallholder Farmers [PDF]

Indian Journal of Microbiology, 2018
Feedstock used in the production of vermicompost (VC) and vermicompost tea (VCT) may harbour various pathogenic bacteria responsible for a number of animal and human diseases worldwide. The identification and characterisation of such pathogenic organisms is necessary for assessing the safety of these products.

Untargeted Metabolomics Coupled With Machine Learning Unravels Crop‐Specific Versus Generalized Effects of Biostimulants in Cucumber, Pepper, and Tomato

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT In recent years, agricultural practices have shifted toward sustainability, aiming to reduce the use of agrochemicals and rely more on bio‐based solutions. However, the effectiveness of these latter suffers from inconsistency. Understanding how different crops respond to biostimulants, instead of referring to a specific trial or crop, is a ...

Potential of Vermicompost Drippings and Other Vermicomposting Products on the Growth and Yield of Lettuce

Southeastern Philippines Journal of Research and Development, 2020
Vermicompost drippings (VD), one of the by-products of vermicomposting, have been largely ignored in the Philippines as an organic fertilizer for economically important vegetable crops. Several reports mention that using vermicompost drippings/leachates have significantly improved crop growth, which had been attributed to its large amounts of plant ...

Biochar‐Compost From Cashew Apple Residue as a Soil Amendment for Cashew Cultivation in Ghana

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The study investigated the effect of different compost types on the growth performance of cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) varieties cultivated in a Lixisol from Northern Ghana. Six compost formulations were prepared using various combinations of poultry manure, cow dung, biochar, and cashew apple residue at different mixing ratios.
