Germination and field emergence of vegetable seeds in composted biosludge

A field study was conducted to detennine the influence of composted biosludge on seed gennination and seedling emergence of ten types of vegetables. Results revealed apparent improvement on the percentage gennination and emergence of vegetable seedlings for both composted-soil (2 compost:1 topsoil (...
