dc.description.abstractIn this study, the impact of foliar spray treatments with fish amino acid (FAA) and urea on the growth parameters of Solanum lycopersicum was investigated. The results revealed significant influences on plant height, number of leaves per plant, and Leaf Area Index (LAI). Notably, the foliar application of 2% urea stimulated cell division and metabolic activity, resulting in taller plants and increased leaf count. Conversely, 1% FAA exhibited a notable increase in plant height, leaf count, and chlorophyll content, showcasing the potential of FAA to enhance metabolic activity and cell division. However, higher concentrations of FAA negatively impacted growth parameters. The study further explored the field growth differences, highlighting the substantial increase in fresh and dry weights under the foliar spray of 2% urea. Additionally, the yield of green leafy vegetables, particularly amaranthus, was significantly influenced by urea and FAA, with 2% urea contributing to a remarkable increase in yield. The research underscores the potential benefits of FAA and urea in enhancing soil fertility, nutrient content, and overall crop yield, providing insights into sustainable agricultural practices. Finally, the study introduces the benefits of fish protein fertilizer, emphasizing its role in soil enrichment, microbial biomass maintenance, root and leaf growth stimulation, and overall plant health. The environmentally friendly nature of fish protein fertilizer and its positive impact on Solanum lycopersicum make it a promising alternative for sustainable and robust agricultural practices.
