The highest compost levels of N, P, and K were obtained in compost-C3, ( 40 % cow manure, 20 % chicken manure, 40 % crop residues, 500 kg rock phosphate, 300 kg orthoclase and 200 kg animal hoof ).
Bone meal and animal hoof increased Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu levels, therefore, the compost quality was significantly improved due to the application of these materials.
Total organic matter content in the farm compost (C1) was significantly increased due to the additions of bone meal and animal hoof. C1 and C3 respectively.
Where :
C1 (40 % Cow Manure + 20 % Chicken Manure +40 % Crop Residues)
Control.
C2 (40 % Cow Manure + 20 % Chicken Manure + 40 % Crop Residues + 500 kg Rock Phosphate + 300 kg Orthoclase + 500 kg Bone Meal.).
EM culture was found very effective in increasing the concentration of macro and micronutrient levels in squash leaf, as well as, soil nutrient contents (soil fertility). Furthermore, the yield has been maximized when it applied in conjunction with C1, C2 and C3 treatments. However, 8.12 tons/feddan was the highest squash yield obtained due to the application of C3 compost combined with EM culture.
Significant increases in N, P, K, Ca, Mg and micronutrients contents of squash
leaves were observed as a result of bone meal and animal hoof additions to the farm compost. Significant increases in total-N, available-P and exchangeable-K in soil were found as a result of bone meal and animal hoof applications to the sandy soil.
DTPA-extractable Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu were gradually increased in soil by time as a result of bone meal and animal hoof additions to the farm compost (C1).
Generally, it could be advised to use the compost C3, which composed from 40 % cow manure, 20 % chicken manure and 40 % crop residues, 500 kg rock phosphate, 300 kg orthoclase and 200 kg animal hoof with the sandy soil at a rate of 20 tons/fed. in conjunction with EM culture at a rate of 4 L/fed.
(1 L EM + 1 L molasses + 13 L water / fed / 2 weeks) for squash crop. Also, any available natural organic additives rich in NPK is recommended to be added to the compost heap in order to increase the nutrient contents and consequently satisfy the needs of organic crops.
