Introduction Pechay (Brassica rapa L. cv group Pak Choi) is an erect‚ biennial herb‚ cultivated as an annual about 15-30 cm tall in vegetative stage. Ovate leaves are arranged spirally and spreading. The petioles are enlarged and grow upright forming a subcylindrical bundle. Inflorescence is a raceme with pale yellow flowers. Seeds are 1 mm in diameter and are reddish to blackish brown in color. Uses and Nutritional Value Pechay is used mainly for its immature‚ but fully

treatment that we applied to our bean plants came from our class and scientific papers that help back our experiment. Examining many studies on the effects of nitrogen fertilizer on a variety of plants helped us better understand what the fertilizer was doing to the plants. A study done on Brassica plants showed that when nitrogen fertilizer was introduced there was an increase in biomass production‚ causing lower stress brought on from B phytoextraction increasing plant growth (Chemosphere).

Fertilizer has been known to help plants and food crops by making them grow faster and larger. Fertilizer is used on many of the foods we eat by the fertilizer is not only in the plant crops. Fertilizer becomes excess runoff in the water as it rains. That eventually my end up inside our ponds and lakes. In the case of piper lake‚ a fertilizer plant‚ HTC fertilizers‚ leakes large amounts of fertilizer into eagle river which feeds onto piper lake. Since then algal blooms have been a dramatic increase

The effect of water and fertilizer on corn seedlings Biology 1108 Lab Section November 7‚ 2012 Abstract The effect of water and fertilizer on corn seedlings was examined. It was hypothesized before the experiment that enough water with sunlight and air should make the plants grow healthy. It has to do with photosynthesis. Fertilizer is also going to make the plants grow much faster; this is because of the nutrients in it. The experiment took about four to six weeks to complete; it took some

suppose an agronomist wants to measure the effect of a new brand of fertilizer on the yield of potatoes. To do so‚ he selects 10 pieces of land and divides each piece into two portions. Then he randomly assigns one of the two portions from each piece of land to grow potatoes without using fertilizer (or using some other brand of fertilizer). The second portion from each piece of land is used to grow potatoes with the new brand of fertilizer. Thus‚ he will have 10 pairs of data values. Then‚ using the procedure

What affect does fertilizer have on the rate of growth in plants over a certain period of time? When tested‚ there is no affect on the growth of plants from a change of an environmental factor‚ such as an exposure to fertilizer. By changing the independent variable (whether or not the plant was planted with fertilizer)‚ you are testing to see how the dependent variable would change (the growth of plants). In order to assure that there is no experimental error‚ a control must be kept to produce the

SEAWEED AND SUGAR AS FERTILIZER (A Science Investigatory Project) Submitted by: Josh Graham Wilken Tapia Student To: Mrs. Marilyn Quinton Research Teacher Statement of the Problem 1. Can Lato (Caulerpa lentillifera) be used as fertilizer to plants? 2. Compared to usual fertilizers‚ will sugar help yield lato fertilizers a better result to growing of plants? 3. Can Lato seaweed and sugar complement with each other in making a crop-yielding fertilizer? Null Hypothesis

ONE ACRE FUND: CASE STUDY The scene is Bungoma‚ Kenya; Moises Postigo is a buyer interested in purchasing fertilizer on a large scale for his not-for-profit organization the One Acre Fund (OAF). OAF’s mission is to provide fertilizer to farmers “who have nothing” on a credit like system and when the farmers produce their crops a percentage of their supplus would be returned to OAF. Eventually the farmers would no longer need a “free hand out” and will be able to support themselves and their families
