Optimization of Rice Hull Bokashi Application Rates for Improving Soil Properties and Performance of Pepper (Capsicum spp) under Tropical Conditions in Owerri Nigeria

Food insecurity, waste disposal, soil degradation and low agricultural productivity remain major challenges in Nigeria. This work was carried out to evaluate the characteristics of fermented Rice Hull-Bokashi (RH-B) and its effects on soil and pepper (Capsicum spp.) performance. The fermentation process lasted for 12 days, during which, temperature...
