Evaluation of the agricultural geometallic impact of the potential use of vermicompost by multidimensional statistical analysis
Öz
It is widely accepted that earthworms play a pivotal role in the modulation of soil nutrient dynamics and the conversion of organic matter. This research focused on examining the toxic effect of reusing sea lettuce-added vermicompost on agricultural yield through multidimensional statistical analysis. Different doses of sea lettuce collected from the Black Sea coast and local farm manure were composted and their chemically effects on agricultural productivity were investigated. Metallic enrichment levels were used to assess the outcomes. The study evaluated the impact of vermicompost on enhancing the yield of local cucumber plants, utilising them as bioassay material. Statistically significant differences were found in some parameters of soil analysis at the end of the experiment. The EF (enrichment factor) values for Zn in G3, G4, and G5 achieved extremely high enrichment levels of 42.92, 26.25, and 29.36, respectively. When the EF values computed in each group for the vermicompost set are analysed, considerable enrichment was noted for Cu as G3 (25.81) and G4 (13.07). In particular, when the organic matter content in G5 was lower compared to other groups and when examined in terms of metallic enrichment, it was observed that vermicompost application increased agricultural productivity and the yield increased rapidly with increasing U. Lactuca dose.
