The impact of various organic sources on tomato yield and quality: A review

Organic matter plays a crucial role in maintaining soil health and boosting crop productivity. A firmer basis for increased crop yields and resilience to environmental challenges can be achieved by creating and preserving a healthy soil with more organic matter. Increased soil organic matter levels frequently result in more sustainable systems with higher yields that are more reliable over the long run. The highest crop yields typically were acquired when the soil contained approximately 3.75% organic matter, according to an analysis of various soil types with differing levels of organic matter. Organic matter in productive soils was often 3.0-3.5 percent. Organic fertilizers have been found to boost tomato yields and enhance fruit quality. The complex effects of organic fertilizers on tomato yield and quality have been found to be influenced by a number of factors, including the amount of organic matter in the soil, the total amount of nitrogen in the soil, and the type of organic fertilizer used. These results provide insightful information and useful recommendations for the efficient application of organic fertilizers in greenhouse farming.

Abstract

Organic matter plays a crucial role in maintaining soil health and boosting crop productivity. A firmer basis for increased crop yields and resilience to environmental challenges can be achieved by creating and preserving a healthy soil with more organic matter. Increased soil organic matter levels frequently result in more sustainable systems with higher yields that are more reliable over the long run. The highest crop yields typically were acquired when the soil contained approximately 3.75% organic matter, according to an analysis of various soil types with differing levels of organic matter. Organic matter in productive soils was often 3.0-3.5 percent. Organic fertilizers have been found to boost tomato yields and enhance fruit quality. The complex effects of organic fertilizers on tomato yield and quality have been found to be influenced by a number of factors, including the amount of organic matter in the soil, the total amount of nitrogen in the soil, and the type of organic fertilizer used. These results provide insightful information and useful recommendations for the efficient application of organic fertilizers in greenhouse farming.
