Abstract
Two field experiments were conducted in Akure, South Western Nigeria to compare the effect of types of livestock manure on growth, yield and plant nutrient contents of cassava. Four types of manure (Poultry, Goat, Pig and Cattle at 10 t/ha) a control treatment (0 t/ha) and 30:30:30 kg/ha NPK were compared in a randomized block design with three replications. The test soils were low in organic matter (OM), N, and available P. Analysis of manures showed that Poultry manure (PM) was highest in N, K, Ca and Na. Pig manure (PG) was highest in P, Cattle manure (CM) was highest in Mg, while Goat manure (GM) had least Na, Ca, Mg and P. Plants fertilized with different manure types and fertilizer showed similar growth pattern. The PG, GM, CM, PM and NPK increased tuber yield by 32, 22, 44, 24 and 40% respectively. Highest fresh root weight (t/ha) given by PM was 13.07 t/ha and 27.7 t/ha at 9 and 12 MAP respectively. Manures and NPK significantly increased leaf N, Zn and Fe; GM and NPK increased stem N; CM, PM and NPK increased leaf K; PG, CM, and NPK increased Ca in plant and PM increased leaf Mg. Livestock manure enhanced availability of nutrients for increased yield in cassava production. (Odedina, Joy Nwakaego; Odedina, Samson Adeola and Ojeniyi, Stephen Olusola.
