Abstract |
Most of the soils in northeast Thailand (NET) is sandy in texture. This type of soils contained low organic matter and low nutrient, as well as low soil water holding capacity that results in low crop productivity. Chili is the main vegetable crop cultivating in NET. Several kinds of food included chili as an ingredient. The objectives of this research were to investigate the influence of various organic matters on soil properties, growth and yield of chili grown under greenhouse conditions. A completely randomized design with four replications was used in the present study. The treatments consist of three kinds of organic matter; (T1) Coconut shell hair, (T2) Calabura (Muntingia calabura L.) dry leaves, and (T3) Samanea saman (Samanea saman (Jacq.) Merr.) dry leaves in comparison with (T4) without organic matter (control). One chili seedling was transplanted into the soils in a plastic pot with size of 20 cm. in diameter and 18 cm in height which filled 3 kg of dry soil. All various organic matters were incorporated into the soil at a rate of 50 g pot-1. Results revealed that all various organic matter application increased soil pH and organic matter when compared to control at harvest. For soil moisture content (SMC), Coconut shell hair application give the highest SMC entire the growing period. Irrespective of crop growth, the maximum root and shoot growth were observed in the Calabura application treatment. In the present experiment, Calabura application gave the highest number of pod plant-1 and pod yield, but insignificant with Samania saman treatment. Calabura application increased yield by 40% over control.
