Furthermore, organic by-product can be used for mulshing which can reduce of loss of water by evapotranspiration. Moreover, tendency, towards organic agriculture and sustainable became agriculture amecessty to maintain soils fertility, safety, health and consequently the agricultural environment. | ||||
