Organic Fertilization on Shallot | Chapter 8 | Emerging Issues in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 4

 The request of organic manure aims to increase the quantity and condition of shallots and reduce the rate of pressure loss of shallots in the depository process, as well as increase soil virility, reduce synthetic inputs, and be environmentally friendly and tenable. Applying organic fertilizers to the soil plays an  main role in reconstructing soil structure for fear that it increases air aeration and smooth water movement, as well as growing the bulk bulk of the soil, thereby growing the absorption of water in the soil and growing plant growth and result. Using organic manure on shallots can affect the number of tillers and plant tubers cause applying basic fertilizer will form granules that bind outside clay. As a result, the soil enhances more porous because roots and tubers can surely penetrate and form best and more numerous tubers. Organic fertilizers are a beginning of minerals and strength for microorganisms to break down, raise soil pH and increase cation exchange ability, improving adeptness and nutrient rude answer of N, P, and K and increasing crop yields.
