Abstract: Although the black soldier fly frass fertiliser (BSFFF) is globally recognised as a promising and potential high-quality organic fertiliser, there is inadequate information on its impact on the growth performance and nutritional status of maize. Furthermore, no information exist on their combination with mineral fertiliser (NPK) as well as economic impact on maize production. This study evaluated the comparative impact of BSFFF, NPK and commercial organic fertiliser (Evergrow®) on...
Abstract: Biogas can be produced from any biodegradable feedstock that is suitable for anaerobic digestion. In present day biogas production from barley straw and cow dung was investigated using the number of small reactors. Barley straw was codigested with Cow dung with the aim of biogas production. Five treatment mixtures of Barley straw and Cow dung in ratio of 100% Barley straw(BS), 70% Barley straw(BS) and 30% Cow dung(CD) , 50% Barley straw(BS) and 50% Cow dung(CD) , 30% Barley straw a...
Abstract: Biogas is an eco-friendly renewable energy source through the anaerobic digestion of organic waste materials. In this study, biogas production from co-digestion of Bidens pilosa(BP) and poultry Manure (PM) in five mix ratios (100%BP, 75%BP:25%PM, 50%BP:50%PM, 25%BP:75%PM and 100%PM) were evaluated under at 38ºC using a batch mode digester over 21 days of fermentation. In all treatments, physico-chemical parameters such as pH, total solid, volatile solid, moisture content, organic ...
