TAILIEUCHUNG - Effects of winter green manuring on organic cucumber production in unheated greenhouse conditions
The effects of winter green manure crops on organic cucumber production were determined in unheated greenhouse conditions in order to integrate soil building and conservation practices, which are critically important in greenhouse production without crop rotation. | Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry Research Article Turk J Agric For (2013) 37: 315-325 © TÜBİTAK doi: Effects of winter green manuring on organic cucumber production in unheated greenhouse conditions 1, 2 1 3 Yüksel TÜZEL *, Hale DUYAR , Gölgen Bahar ÖZTEKİN , Özlem GÜRBÜZ KILIÇ , 4 5 5 Dilek ANAÇ , Nilgün MADANLAR , Zeynep YOLDAŞ 1 Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Ege University, Bornova, İzmir, Turkey 2 Bayındır Vocational School, Ege University, Bayındır, İzmir, Turkey 3 Akhisar Vocational School, Celal Bayar University, Akhisar, Manisa, Turkey 4 Department of Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, Faculty of Agriculture, Ege University, Bornova, İzmir, Turkey 5 Department of Plant Protection, Faculty of Agriculture, Ege University, Bornova, İzmir, Turkey Received: Accepted: Published Online: Printed: Abstract: The effects of winter green manure crops on organic cucumber production were determined in unheated greenhouse conditions in order to integrate soil building and conservation practices, which are critically important in greenhouse production without crop rotation. The study was conducted between 2006 and 2008 to compare (1) pea (Pisum sativum L.), (2) Italian rye-grass (Lolium multiflorum L.), and (3) common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) as winter green manure plants. These treatments were compared with a control without green manuring (4). All of the plots were divided into halves, and poultry manure was applied as 0 (–PM) and kg m–2 (+PM) to each. Cucumber (Cucumis sativus ‘Sardes’) was grown as a spring cycle production after winter green manure plants were incorporated into the soil. Treatments were evaluated in terms of yield, fruit quality parameters such as electrical conductivity, pH, titratable acidity, total soluble solids, and dry weight. Soil fertility and pest/disease incidence were also determined. It .
