EFFECT OF DIFFERENT RATES OF (CHEMICAL AND ORGANIC FERTILIZERS) ON FRUITS YIELD AND OIL CONTENT OF CORIANDER (Coriandrum sativm)
Abstract
Cultivated fruits Coriander conducted in sheets (1 x2 square meters) of soil type (Silty Loam) using animal compost (sheep waste) levels (0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 tons. ha-1) and other chemical transactions at levels equaled values (NPK)valaes at in the organic compost, named N0P0K0 ,N18P2K3 ,N36P4K6 ,N54P6K9 ,N72P8K12 and N90P10K15 kg. Ha-1 (urea "45% N" source of nitrogen and phosphate Super unilateral "9% P" source of phosphorous and potassium sulphate "43% K" source of potassium). Results were : 1-Treatment comparison (without organic or chemical fertilizer) The sum of fruits (658 kg. Ha-1) and the quantity of oil (5.42 liters. ha-1). 2-Treatment (2 tons. 1 hectare) of manure gave the highest sum of fruits reached (1348 kg. Ha-1) and the highest quantity of oil (13.48 liters. ha-1). 3-N72P8K12 excelled treatment of chemical fertilizer excelled equaled 4 tons. 1 ha of compost gave the sum of the fruits of the (1008 kg. Ha -1), whereas treatment N54P6K9 was equivalent to 3 tons. 1 ha of compost) oil hit (11.25 liters. ha-1).
