Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Rice straw compost at 30% (v/v) increased plant dry biomass and fruit diameter of tomato in both media.
- Intervention effect Rice straw compost at 30% (v/v) increased yield and WUE of tomato in both media.
- Intervention effect Water deficit decreased plant dry biomass, fruit diameter, yield and WUE of tomato in most treatments.
- Intervention effect Soilless media amended with rice straw compost gave the greatest water use efficiency of tomato.
- Intervention effect Rice straw compost significantly increased total organic matter in greenhouse soil for tomato growing media.
- Intervention effect Rice straw compost significantly decreased total organic matter in soilless media for tomato growing media.
- Association Days to 100% wilt were positively correlated with total organic carbon of the media (R2 = 0.90).
- Association Increases in total organic matter were associated with decreases in the loss of media moisture content of tomato growing media.
