Abstract/Summary
The effect of the urban refuse compost in combination with Azotobacter sp. and in combination with chemical fertilizers was tested on the growth of Brassica napus L. cv. Black Behi (pechay). The untreated soil with 60-30-30 commercial fertilizer, the untrated soil with compost from urban refuse and untreated soil and formula 1 [ (70 percent compost + 10 percent urea + 10 percent solophos + 10 percent potassium chloride) ] gave the highest shoot fresh weight with the value of 61.870 grams, 64.142 grams and 54.142 grams respectively. The same treatments gave the highest plant height of pechay with the value of 29.66 centimeter, 26.80 centimeter and 27.54 centimeter respectively.
