Influence of organic fertilization on the economic efficiency of field lettuce production

In our country lettuce is widely cultivated as a field and greenhouse crop. A significant part of the production during the autumn-winter and winter-spring period takes place in unheated polyethylene greenhouses. An important factor in the choice of variety is, on the one hand, the quality indicators in line with market requirements, which have been the subject of a number of studies at home and abroad, and, on the other, the possibility of achieving high profitability of production. The aim of the study is to evaluate the economic effects of the application of organic fertilizers in the production of field lettuce. The comparative economic evaluation of different fertilizer options is carried out using the ranking method. The most attractive fertilizers for practice are Italpolina and Lumbicompost.
