Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the effects of different organic fertilizers on plant growth, yield, quality properties and element contents in spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.). The research was carried out under open field conditions in Bolu province. In the study, Matador spinach variety was used and seven different applications were examined. The applications were as follows: 1) Control, 2) Chicken manure, 3) Turkey manure, 4) Sheep manure, 5) Cattle manure, 6) Vermicompost and 7) Chemical fertilizer. The experiment was established in randomized complete block design with three replications. According to the research findings, significant differences were found among the applications. In general, organic fertilizer applications significantly increased yield, plant height, plant wet weight, plant dry weight, dry matter content, number of marketable leaves, nitrogen, phosphorus, sulphur and selenium contents of the plant in comparison with control and chemical fertilizer. The highest yield was determined in cattle manure application. It was observed that cattle manure increased the yield by 88.08% compared to the control and increased the yield by 41.16% compared to the chemical fertilizer. In organic fertilizer applications, heavy metal contents such as arsenic, chrome, cobalt, and nickel were found to be lower than the control and, aluminum and cadmium contents were found to be lower than chemical fertilizer. As a result, it was determined that organic fertilizers examined in the study have positive effects on plant growth, yield, quality properties and element contents of spinach and organic fertilizers can be used successfully for sustainable agriculture in spinach cultivation.

Farklı Organik Gübrelerin Ispanakta Bitki Gelişimi, Verim, Kalite Özellikleri ve Element İçerikleri Üzerine Etkileri

Abstract

Bu çalışma, farklı organik gübrelerin ıspanakta (Spinacia oleracea L.) bitki gelişimi, verim, kalite özellikleri ve element içerikleri üzerine etkilerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırma, Bolu ilinde açık arazi koşullarında yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada Matador ıspanak çeşidi kullanılmış ve yedi farklı uygulama incelenmiştir. Uygulamalar aşağıdaki gibidir: 1) Kontrol, 2) Tavuk gübresi, 3) Hindi gübresi, 4) Koyun gübresi, 5) Sığır gübresi, 6) Vermikompost ve 7) Kimyasal gübre. Çalışma tesadüf blokları deneme desenine göre 3 tekerrürlü olarak kurulmuştur. Araştırma bulgularına göre uygulamalar arasında önemli farklılıklar bulunmuştur. Genel olarak organik gübre uygulamaları verim, bitki boyu, bitki yaş ağırlığı, bitki kuru ağırlığı, kuru madde içeriği, pazarlanabilir yaprak sayısı, azot, fosfor, kükürt ve selenyum içeriğini kontrol ve kimyasal gübreye göre önemli ölçüde artırmıştır. En yüksek verim sığır gübresi uygulamasında tespit edilmiştir. Sığır gübresinin verimi kontrole göre %88.08, kimyasal gübreye göre ise %41.16 artırdığı gözlenmiştir. Organik gübre uygulamalarında arsenik, kobalt, krom ve nikel gibi ağır metal içerikleri kontrole göre, alüminyum ve kadmiyum içerikleri ise kimyasal gübreye göre daha düşük bulunmuştur. Sonuç olarak, çalışmada incelenen organik gübrelerin ıspanakta bitki gelişimi, verim, kalite özellikleri ve element içerikleri üzerine olumlu etkilerinin olduğu ve organik gübrelerin ıspanak yetiştiriciliğinde sürdürülebilir tarım için başarılı bir şekilde kullanılabileceği belirlenmiştir.
