- Intervention effect Farmyard manure consistently increased the number and weight of pea nodules.
- Intervention effect The aqueous extract of farmyard manure also increased the number and weight of pea nodules and plant growth.
- Intervention effect The increases from farmyard manure were smaller than those from a combination of P and K fertilizers or activated vermiculite.
- Observation Field beans (Vicia faba) reacted to organic materials in the same way as peas.
- Observation French beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) reacted to organic materials in the same way as peas.
