Abstract

The current study was carried out in the Baloza area of the North Sinai Governorate, Egypt, throughout two consecutive seasons (2020/2021 and 2021/2022) to determine the impact of biochar (B) and vermicompost (V) as well as their interactions on the yield of fruits and essential oils of Dutch fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill) plants. The findings of the interaction indicated that when plants were given a greater level of biochar  B2 (4.8 t/ha) in combination with vermicompost V3 (9.6 t/ha), they achieved the significantly highest increments in growth, fruits, and oil yields as well as NPK uptake. Also, the results showed that Trans-anethole, Estragole, L-fenchone, and D-limonene were the main chemical components of the extracted essential oils.
