The study aimed to evaluate the effect of organic fertilization on Brassica oleracea var. capitata plants. The research was conducted at the Angamarca la Vieja farm, located in the Pilancón community, part of the Ramón Campaña parish, Pangua canton, Cotopaxi province. The study lasted 90 days for the establishment of the trial and experimental work. Evaluations were carried out at 30, 60, and 90 days after transplanting, using a completely randomized block design (CRBD) with five treatments and four repetitions, totaling 20 experimental units. The fertilizers used were poultry manure and compost, with two doses evaluated (2 kg/m² and 4 kg/m²), along with a control treatment (10-30-10 formula). The variables evaluated were plant height, stem diameter, cabbage diameter, cabbage weight, yield per plot, and yield in tons per hectare. The study concluded that the use of organic fertilizers, namely poultry manure and compost, improved certain agronomic variables. Although no significant impact was observed on plant height, it was found that poultry manure at a dose of 4 kg/m² had a positive effect on cabbage diameter, while compost at the same dose showed improvements in crop weight and yield. These results suggest that organic fertilization can be a viable alternative to increase agricultural production sustainably, promoting agricultural practices that benefit both productivity and soil health. |
