In order to address the issue of nutrient deficiency in coconut coir-based nursery substrates, three materials with supplementation effects, namely pig manure, composted rice husks, and agricultural humic acid, were added equal volumes substrate. The newly formulated substrates then tested for their seedling growth effects on cucumber rice. Results indicate that substrate formulation consisting "10% manure + 30% peat 50% coir 10% vermiculite" was capable satisfying requirements both seedlings, highest acceptance among farmers.

Organic waste utilization stands as a pivotal approach to ecological and economic sustainability. This study aimed assess the stability, maturity, evolution of co-composts comprising various blends green (GW) sheep manure (SM). Employing diverse array physico-chemical biological parameters, we investigated co-composting process over 120 days. Three types garden (mixture (MGW), fallen leaves (FL), grass cutting (GC)) were utilized. The results revealed significant compost transformation, evident by odor insect absence shift dark brown coloration, indicating maturation. C2, derived from FL, exhibited superior soil amendment potential. Significantly, it pH level 6.80, an EC 2.45 mS/cm, OM content 55%, along with C/N ratio 16.15. Analysis macronutrients values 1.98% for TN, 3.22% TP, 0.61% K. Crucially, showed no phytotoxic effects boasted high GI 94.20% low respiration rate 4.02 mg/50 g, its stability appropriateness agricultural application. Our findings underscore compost’s potential eco-friendly amendment, offering valuable insights sustainable management supporting circular economy.

Agricultural activities generate substantial quantities of waste, which are often relegated to landfills or incineration. However, these residues can be effectively valorized through composting, transforms them into valuable organic fertilizers (OF). Composting agricultural waste (AW) mitigates environmental impacts and offers significant benefits in enhancing soil fertility productivity. This practice is particularly beneficial regions with low degraded land, where compost improve health review provides a comprehensive analysis the literature on valorization AW focusing its environmental, agricultural, economic health, especially Morocco’s ecosystems. It synthesizes findings from studies published over past two decades offer critical insights recommendations for optimizing composting practices. By systematically evaluating, this highlights as pivotal strategy reducing impact, promoting sustainable management. Future research essential explore opportunities process, including content enhancement processing duration. In summary, process seen an effective solution that fits within principles circular economy (CE) requires careful evaluation ongoing monitoring.

Traditional dredged sludge disposal methods are characterized by low resource utilization and high carbon emissions, leading to serious environmental pollution. This study used sludge, composted pig manure, sawdust as raw materials, supplemented them with composite biological agents prepare improved soil. Plant adaptability the soil was comprehensively evaluated using factors such seed germination index (GI). The alkaline nitrogen content in increased 78.61% compared of other nutrients available potassium also varying degrees. Ryegrass GI 51.06% (IS1) sludge. main dominant fungi were Tausonia, Trichoderma, Cystoflobasidium, which promote nutrient activation antagonize pathogenic bacteria, making environment more conducive plant growth. Dredged successfully converted into planting Fully utilizing nitrogen, phosphorus, substances enriched provide for growth is an efficient method achieve utilization.
