ASSESMENT OF RICH MANURE FOR IRISH POTATOES: THE PROSPECT AND PREPARATION OF THE BEST COMPOST MIX FOR COMMERCIAL POTATOES FARMING
The study analyzed the assessment of rich manure for Irish potatoes it prospects and preparation of the best compost mix for commercial potatoes farming. Manure, as organic fertilizers, provides essential nutrients to the soil, promotes soil structure and fertility, and enhances overall plant growth. The study revealed that the application of organic manure, such as farmyard manure or compost, significantly increased potato yield compared to chemical fertilizers. The study showed that the preparation of compost mix for commercial potato farming entails a meticulous blend of organic inputs, tailored to the specific nutrient requirements and soil conditions of potato crops. Common ingredients include animal manures, crop residues, and green waste, supplemented with amendments like bone meal, kelp meal, and rock phosphate to bolster nutrient diversity. On this basis it was concluded that the assessment and preparation of rich manure-based composts offer promising avenues for enhancing Irish potato cultivation, promoting soil fertility, and optimizing crop yields. By leveraging organic amendments and tailored compost blends, farmers can foster sustainable agricultural practices while reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers. One of the recommendations made was that thorough soil testing should be conducted before applying compost, assess soil nutrient levels and pH to tailor compost formulations to specific deficiencies and requirements, ensuring optimal potato growth.
