| Abstract | ||||
| Excessive chemical fertilizer used in farming to increase crop yields has increased the risk of environmental destruction and has serious negative impacts on human health. To solve these problems, agriculture farming has evolved to using bio-fertilizers, which not only raise productivity, minerals, and organic compounds but also reduce the harmful effects of chemical fertilizers. In this study, two strains of green microalgae had been isolated. Then each algal isolate was grown in BBM media and BFCE, then the pellet of two isolates after growth was taken and resuspended in the irrigation water. The algal treatments enhanced Corchorus olitorius growth parameters, as well as an increase in photosynthetic pigments and protein content compared to the control plant during the flowering stage. Based on the obtained results Chlorella sorkiniana and Scenedesmus quadricauda could be used as biofertilizers. | ||||
