With this growing trend of demand, there is need to evaluate the performance of some of these organic manure such as cow dung. Cow dung is readily available in most parts of Nigeria and its cost of application is very affordable, however its effectiveness has been believed to be affected by fermentation time. It is in light of this that this study seeks to investigate of effect of fermentation time on the pH and TDS (total dissolved solid) of cow dung fertilizers. The method used for the study was a manure fermentation process conducted in laboratory. The result of the study revealed that fermentation time affects the sample solution of 1:2 ratio proportions since it has more increased pH level as well as the TDS. The result also indicated that the ratio solution with higher pH and TDS level next to 1:2 is that of 1:4 and least is 1:8. It was therefore concluded that the level of pH left for the soil from cow dung fertilizer is highly affected by fermentation time....Preview Download Preview +Other Science Technology project topics and materials you might be interested in»Bacteriological qualities of food thickener deuterium microcarpum (ofor) and brachystegia eurcycoma (achi) sold in Owerri main market»Obstacle detection robot with ultrasonic sensor»Design and construction of cell phone charger»Physiochemical assessment of soil samples from Nwambe Reserve Forest, Ndubia Igagu Izzi L.G.A, Ebonyi State.»Antitrypanosomal activity of ethanol extract of Tridax Procumbent leaf and whole flower on T.
