Other claims from this paper (15)
- Association Irrigation regime significantly affected leaf production of both vegetables.
- Intervention effect Daily irrigation gave kale heights of 20, 46, and 54 cm at 14, 28, and 42 DAT.
- Intervention effect Full BSFFF produced taller kale at 42 DAT than other treatments.
- Intervention effect Full BSFFF increased kale leaf number at 42 DAT versus other treatments.
- Association Irrigation and fertilizer interacted significantly for kale height at 14 and 42 DAT.
- Intervention effect Daily irrigation with either half BSFFF plus half NPK or full BSFFF yielded the highest leaf chlorophyll in kale and Swiss chard.
- Intervention effect BSFFF soil amendment gave the lowest pest infestation in kale and Swiss chard.
- Intervention effect Full BSFFF or NPK with daily irrigation increased fresh shoot weight and leaf dry matter in both crops versus control.
- Intervention effect Kale fresh shoot yield was 14–69% higher under full BSFFF and daily irrigation than NPK.
- Intervention effect Swiss chard fresh shoot yield was 13–56% higher under full BSFFF and daily irrigation than NPK.
- Intervention effect Kale leaf dry matter was 8–73% higher under the same combination than NPK.
- Intervention effect Swiss chard leaf dry matter was 16–81% higher under the same combination than NPK.
- Intervention effect During water stress, BSFFF maintained 41–50% higher kale leaf dry matter than NPK.
- Intervention effect During water stress, BSFFF maintained 33–49% higher Swiss chard leaf dry matter than NPK.
- Recommendation The authors advocate scaling WMSG and BSFFF for sustainable urban food systems.
