Abstract
A study was conducted in a farmer field in Nakhon Ratchasima province to investigate the cumulative effect of chicken manure (CM), cassava starch waste (CSW), and cassava tails and stalk (CTS) applied for seven consecutive years on cassava, Huay Bong 80 variety’s yield and nutrient uptake in low fertile Yasonthon soil series. The experimental design was arranged in a randomized complete block with three replications. Treatments comprised no soil amendment application (T1), the applications of CM (T2), CSW (T3), CTS (T4), CM + CSW (T5), and CM + CTS (T6) with each soil organic amendment applied at the rate of 6.25 t/ha. Results in the 7th crop showed that the application of CM + CTS (T6) highly significantly promoted the highest fresh tuber yield and starch yield (P < 0.01), but with no statistical difference from other treatments with soil amendments applied (T2–T5). All treatments using soil organic amendments promoted fresh tuber yield and starch yield of 108.0–140.7% and 89.9–128.6% greater than that of the control plot without soil amendment application. The use of CM + CSW (T5) highly significantly (P < 0.05) induced higher aboveground biomass (Stem base, stem, and leaf and branch) than did no application of soil amendment (T1). Overall, the addition of CM mixed with both wastes (T5–T6) also resulted in cassava taking up rather greater plant nutrients than did other treatments. The results demonstrated that continuous application of soil organic amendments for several years positively had a cumulative impact on cassava’s yield and nutrient uptake.
