Abstract

Two filed experiments were carried out during the two
successive years of 2004 and 2005) to study the effect of
propagation methods (seedlings from seeds and terminal cuttings)
alone or with using organic manure fertilizer such as farm yard
manure ''FYM'' or poultry manure ''PM'' at rates 0, 10, 20 and 30
m3/ fed. on growth and chemical constituents of sweet basil
plants. The obtained results indicated that, all growth parameters
i.e., plant height, number of branches/plant, number of
inflorescences/plant, fresh weight of herb/plant and number of
roots as well as volatile oil percentage, oil yield per plant and per
feddan, N, P and K % and total carbohydrate contents in the herb
were significantly increased as methods of propagation such as
terminal cuttings and organic manure application of poultry
manure. The best results were obtained from poultry manure at
rate of 20 m3/fed. or farm yard manure at rate of 30 m3/fed. Also
cultivate terminal cuttings combined with organic manure
fertilization gave the best results than seedlings combined with
organic manure fertilization. Terminal cuttings combined with
poultry manure gave the best results than other combines. The
maximum increment in the studied growth parameters and
chemical constituents as well as yield and its component were
obtained by cultivate with terminal cuttings using medium rate 20
m3/fed. from poultry manure or high rate 30 m3/fed. from farm
yard manure at rate of 30 m3/fed. fertilization.
