Abstract

Bat guano is rich in carbon, nitrogen, essential minerals and beneficial microbes. It is considered as a potential organic fertilizer for plant growth and productivity. The aim of the study was to test the effect of varying amounts of bat guano on plant growth and productivity of tomato. The results showed that the growth and productivity increased significantly with the amounts of bat guano applied. With the amount of 0.5 or 1 t/ha was found to have the greatest impact compared to other treatment and control groups. The amount of 0.5 t/ha (or 35 g/plant) is an appreciate amount and recommended for tomato production.
