Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Fermented clover amendment increased plant height and leaf number of tomato transplants compared with non-fermented clover.
- Intervention effect Three weeks fermented clover at 20% mixing percentage gave the highest values of the growth parameters.
- Intervention effect Fresh water (260 mg l-1) gave the highest vegetative growth of tomato transplants among salinity treatments.
- Intervention effect Fermented clover alleviated salt stress on tomato transplants under saline irrigation.
- Intervention effect Fermented clover increased growth parameters of tomato transplants under saline water irrigation.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that clover can be used for producing organic tomato transplants instead of imported media.
