My Manure Experiment On Maize Cultivation by RainMoreDFARMS(op): 5:56pm On Aug 28, 2024

So, I recently embarked on manure experiment on maize. Attached are the results after harvest.

Note: I am not a commercial maize farmer, I only cultivate for my animal consumption. These are local seeds gotten from an open market.

Rabbit urine is like gold in East Africa. Highly sought after.
BTW, congrats. I like people that take the initiative to test and retest everything and come up with their own protocols.

I did similar for maize using mycrorrhiza, urea and NPK. One application of NPK and 1 of combined urea and mycorrhiza is what I use. Stunning results year in year out.

The rabbit urine and chicken poop did better than the rest. Rabbit poop is good for manure too. Cheers.
