A field experiment was conducted at Agricultural Experimental and
Research Station, Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, Giza,
Egypt in the two summer successive seasons 2008 and 2009. The
present work aims to study the response of snap bean to different
rates of compost and time of application in comparison with two
different sources of inorganic fertilizers. The experiment included
8 treatments, the recommended mineral fertilizer (MF) as a control,
Natural fertilizer (NF), i.e. 4, 6 and 8 tons of compost as organic
sources were applied once through soil preparation (O). These
treatments were applied at two equal splits at soil preparation and
30 days after sowing (S). The same rate of (N: P: K, 50:45:60 kg/
fed) was applied either in MF or NF treatment. The N source in both
treatments was ammonium sulfate, super phosphate (P) and potassium
sulfate (K) in MF treatment and phosphate rock (P) and natural
potassium (K) in NF treatment. Results showed that MF, NF, 4 tons
compost O and S treatments produced significantly taller plants in
combined over seasons.
