Effect of vermicompost and its mixtures with water treatment residuals on soil chemical properties and barley growth

Water treatment residuals (WTR) and organic amendments can improve both organic wastes recycling and soil reclamation. The present work was carried out to evaluate the effect of vermicompost, when used alone or in combination with WTR at mixed ratios of 2:1 and 1:1 wet weight (Vermi: WTR ), on soil...

The present work was carried out to evaluate the effect of vermicompost, when used alone or in combination with WTR at mixed ratios of 2:1 and 1:1 wet weight (Vermi: WTR ), on soil chemical properties of saline sodic soils, and on barley growth (Hordeum aestivm).
