Abstract

Challenges of safety food decreasing & chemical pollution were need to improve organic effective fertilizers. Two open field experiments were applied in Nubaria Agricultural-Research Station farm; in two seasons, 2023 and 2024 for evaluation influence poultry tea or vermitea with algae and seaweed mixed on maize growth & production parameters. Experiments were laid-out on split plot designs (RCBD) for nine-treatments, and 4 replications. Results cleared that, highest significantly values in vegetative, yield and quality parameters were produced at T5 (poultry tea as a soil fertigation at 6 times with foliar spraying on leaf by seaweed and algae mixed at 3 times). While lowest significantly values in growth, yield and quality attributes were recorded in inorganic fertilizers (control) T1. Organic fertilizers caused significantly increased in vegetative & production of maize plant. Among all organic treatments, lead to higher growth, yield and chemical components on grains & leaves were done by combination between as soil fertigation with foliar spraying together as compares to inorganic fertilizers (control). Thus, recommend the combination applying of organic and bio fertilizers treatment (T5) as a sustainable agriculture for safety maize production under Smart Agritechnique.
