Acacia tree fertilizer
The aim of this research is to know the characteristics of al-Samar fertilizer by analyzing it with the standard of the soil protocol of the Globe program to answer the basic question of this research, which is: * What characteristics will the fertilizer (Al Khimy) add to the soil protocol standard? An organized study plan was developed. At the beginning, we gathered some information about the organic fertilizer and then we brought quantities of al-Samar fertilizer, which we conducted some analyzes. These analyzes are: 1- PH measurement. 2- Measuring salinity and conductivity. 3- Measuring the carbon reaction. 4- Measuring the amount of roots. 5- Determine the color of the two samples. In the end, we were able to find a set of conclusions, the most important of which are: • Fennel fertilizer (Khimy) reduces the basicity of the soil. • Samar fertilizer (Khimy) contains large quantities of roots. • Samar fertilizer (Khimy) contains high amounts of carbon, which indicates the presence of many remains of dead creatures. • Samar fertilizer is a good organic fertilizer for plant nutrition. • The artificial fertilizer can be replaced with the compost for the compost because it is environment friendly. Finally, we recommend the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Water Resources to use this natural resource in any way. We also recommend that farmers use this natural resource.
