Title of the project APPLICATION OF PULVERIZED ORGANIC FERTILIZER FROM HYDROLYZED CHICKEN FEATHER TO GARLIC (Portulaca oleracea)
Project Adviser Ms. Luzviminda A. Dinglasan
RESEARCH PLAN
A. Problem/s
1.What are the composition of chicken feather?
2. How does the feather meal helps the production of garlic?
3. How many grams of pulverized organic fertilizer is needed per 10kg of soil? 4. What are the effects of organic fertilizer on garlic?
Objectives
1. To know the effect of pulverized organic fertilizer from hydrolyzed chicken feather .to the growth of Allium Sativum.
2. To make a pulverized powder from hydrolyzed chicken feather that will be applied to garlic.
3. To determine the disadvantage of an inorganic fertilizer
Hypotheses
1. The feather meal offers a promising prospect in agriculture as an organic fertilizer when applied to garlic.
2. The organic fertilizer will help in increasing the production of garlic.
3.
A. Method/Procedures (Describe in detail)
A. Preparation and Hydrolyzation Of Chicken Feather
Feathers, the keratin carbon and nitrogen source used in this study were obtained from a market in Blumentritt, Manila. Steam jacketed, batch or continuous pressurizedcookers heat or hydrolyze and sterelize the animal, poultry by product by product raw materials.
The feathers were thoroughly washed to remove dirt and blood stains, sun-dried for few hours. The dried feathers were then grinded using grinder pound. Standard sieve of 60 mesh particle size was used to obtain very fine feather substrate. The powders were kept at room temperature and used for further studies.
B. Planting Garlic with the organic fertilizer
