Assessment of compost extract on yield and phytochemical contents of pak choi (Brassica rapa cv. Chinensis) grown under different fertilizer strategies

An experiment was conducted to assess the effect of different extraction of compost extracts on pak choi (Brassica rapa cv. chinensis) under two fertilizer regimes. Aerated compost extract (ACE) and non-aerated compost extract (NCE) were prepared and all treatments (ACE+organic fertilizer, NCE+organ...
