Agrochemical Composition of a New Organo-Humic Fertilizer and the Response of Cucumber Plants to Various Application Rates on Sandy Soils

Key Points

• This study aims to evaluate the effects of a new organo-humic fertilizer on cucumber plant growth in sandy soils.
• Conducted a randomized trial comparing different application rates of the organo-humic fertilizer (30–45 t/ha) on sandy soils.
• Used Izyashchny variety of cucumber plants to assess growth and development improvements.
• Analyzed the agrochemical composition of the fertilizer produced from poultry manure.
• Application rates of 30–45 t/ha of the organo-humic fertilizer resulted in significant positive growth in cucumber plants.
• Cucumber plants showed enhanced development characteristics attributable to the fertilizer application.
• The fertilizer was found to be rich in both macro- and microelements while being free from harmful substances.
