Abstract

The utilization of municipal solid waste compost reduces the application of chemical fertilizers and increase the growth and yield of crops. Application of upto 25 t ha-1 of municipal solid waste compost was found to have a minimum of 15% increase in growth and yield of crops compared to no treatment. The application of 50% of municipal solid waste compost and 50% chemical fertilizer also leads to approximately the same level in increasing the growth and yield of crops compared to 100% treatment of chemical fertilizers.
