The effect of vermicompost on the forming ingredients of calendula officinal is L herb´s essence
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 9
Abstract
One experiment was carried out for different levels of vermicompost on the forming ingredients of calendula officinal is L herb´s essence in form of totally random design with 4 treats (2%, 4%, and 6%) with 3 replication at research farm at Shahrekord University in 2013. The comparisons of mean were done by LSD test at level five. The photochemical properties measured by GC.MS. The forming composition includes Menthon, Gamatrepn, Alphamololen, caryophyllene´s essence have been obtained. The results showed that, the different levels of wormy compost on the essence ´s forming ingredients. Except Caryophyllene increased in 1% levels significantly. The increases in different levels of vermicompost increased essence contain throughout providing additional nutrients that are present in forming ingredients of calendula officinal is L´s essence. While consumption reduction of chemical inputs in herbal produce and their production is basic condition of its normal healthy, therefore, calendula´s positive response to biological organic fertilizer is promising to sustainable production possibility of this medicinal plant.
