Investigates the effects of organic manure and plant extracts on apple yields, indicating improved fruit quality with specific cultivars.

The aim is to explore how organic manure and nettle extract influence growth and yield in different apple cultivars.
Conducted a factorial randomized complete block design with three replications
Applied foliar spraying of organic manure and nettle extract on specific dates
Analyzed data using SAS software and Duncan's multiple range test
Granny Smith showed 97.6% greater leaf area compared to Starking and local cultivars
Leaf chlorophyll content was 12.1% higher in Granny Smith
Granny Smith exhibited a 64.5% increase in yield, reaching 183.33 kg per tree
Optimal treatment significantly enhanced various physiological parameters and reduced fruit acidity by 30.4%
