- Intervention effect Incorporated poultry manure produced higher soil organic matter in tomato than broadcast application.
- Intervention effect Incorporated poultry manure produced higher soil and leaf N, P and K in tomato than broadcast application.
- Intervention effect Incorporated poultry manure produced higher soil and leaf Ca and Mg in tomato than broadcast application.
- Intervention effect Incorporated poultry manure produced higher growth of tomato than broadcast application.
- Intervention effect Poultry manure applied 3 weeks before transplanting gave higher leaf nutrient concentrations in tomato than application at 0, 3 or 6 weeks after transplanting.
- Intervention effect Poultry manure applied 3 weeks before transplanting gave better growth and yield of tomato than application at 0, 3 or 6 weeks after transplanting.
- Intervention effect Poultry manure applied 3 weeks before transplanting increased tomato fruit yield by 4.0 t/ha compared with 6 weeks after transplanting.
- Intervention effect Poultry manure applied 3 weeks before transplanting increased tomato fruit yield by 2.8 t/ha compared with 3 weeks after transplanting.
- Intervention effect Poultry manure applied 3 weeks before transplanting increased tomato fruit yield by 1.5 t/ha compared with no application at transplanting.
- Recommendation Poultry manure applied 3 weeks before transplanting with incorporation is recommended for tomato cultivation in the forest-savanna transition zone of southwest Nigeria.
- Mechanism The higher yield with application 3 weeks before transplanting is attributed to better synchrony between crop demand and nutrient supply.
