Abstract

The current paper evaluates the quality of Albizia procera (Roxb.) Benth plants, produced in nursery with the use of three organic substratum obtained thanks to the mixture of different proportions of Compost, carbon) peat, worm humus, pigsty waste, bovine and horse manure, by using plastic containers of 90 cm3 of capacity. The behavior of morphological parametersand rates of the species at the end of the growing, on the different substratum used were evaluated, obtaining the best results in the 53 substratum compound of Compost at 25 %, plus pigsty waste at 50% plus worm humus at 25% (Co-25%, Rc-50%, HL-25%).
