Abstract | ||||
One of the main factors responsible for the success of sustainable food production is the availability of using cheap fertilizers from natural sources and reducing the use of mineral fertilizers. This work was undertaken during the 2022 and 2023 seasons to indicate the impact of spraying both amino acids enriched with different nutrients and vermicompost tea (VCT) at 100, 200, 400, and 600 ml/L on the growth, yield, and fruit quality of Ewaise mango trees grown under Aswan climatic conditions. This experiment was set up in a randomized complete block design with five treatments and three replications. Spraying the trees with amino acids enriched with different nutrients and VCT at 100 to 600 ml/L had an announced promotion on all aspects of growth, yield, and fruit quality compared to the control treatment (water spraying). The highest values of the studied growth and fruiting traits were obtained due to the higher concentrations of VCT. Using VCT at concentrations higher (600 ml/L) failed to show measurable effects compared to 400 ml/L. So, the greatest impact on the growth, yield, and fruit quality of Ewaise mango trees was gained by spraying the trees three times with VCT at a 400 ml/L rate. | ||||
