Influence of compost and liquid bioferment on the chemical and biological characteristics of soil cultivated with banana (Musa spp. L.)
The effects of compost and liquid biofertiliser on the chemical and biological characteristics of soil cultivated with banana (Musa spp. L.) cv. 'Grand Naine' were investigated. Four treatments (liquid bioferment (LBF), compost (COM), liquid bioferment + compost (LBF + COM) and unamended (...
