Abstract

suitable N (500 g.N/plant/year) either completely via inorganic N form or through 25 to 75 % inorganic N plus 12.5 to 37.5% banana compost, filter mud or poultry manure besides biofertilization with Biogen (as a source of Azotobacter sp. and Azospirillum sp.) and Effective microorganisms (EM) each at 50 ml/plant /year. This study focused on selecting the best source and ratio of inorganic N as well as organic and biofertilizers that recommended for improving yield and fruit quality. Using N via 50 to 75 % inorganic N in combined with any organic and biofertilizers gave the best result on fruiting of the plants in relative to using inorganic nitrogen at 100% of the suitable nitrogen. The best organic and biofertilizer sources were poultry manure and EM respectively. Nitrite and nitrate in the pulp were greatly declined with organic and biofertilization treatments.The best results with regard to yield and fruit quality of Williams bananas were obtained with fertilizing the plants with the suitable N (500 g N/plant /year ) through 50% inorganic N +25% poultry manure + EM at 50 ml/plant/year.
