Abstract :
Background and Aim: Compost, as an organic amendment causes proper soil ventilation and drainage and improves the absorption of water and nutrients in the plant, improving its yield. Water shortage is one of the limiting factors in the production and yield of peanut plants. Peanut grow best in light and sandy soils. After flower production, moisture shortage and soil dryness can prevent pegs from entering the soil. Therefore, compost can sufficiently soften the soil and increase the growth and flowering of peanut. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of water deficit stress and compost fertilizer application on peanut yield and some agronomic traits in Guilan province.
Method: The present study was carried out in a split-plot randomized complete block design with 3 replications in 2021 in Astaneh Ashrafiyeh city. The main factor included no irrigation and 50 and 100 percent water requirement, and the secondary factor included organic compost fertilizer at 4 levels of 0, 5, 10, and 15 ton.ha-1. Organic compost fertilizer included an equal mixture of livestock manure and rotted rice stalks. The cultivated peanut cultivar was "Guil Badam". At the end of the growing season, the traits of number of lateral branches, length of side branches, number of leaves per plant, root length, number of pods per plant, single seed weight, seed yield and pod yield were evaluated.
Results: The results of the analysis of variance of the traits showed that the effect of water requirement, compost effect and their interaction on the number of lateral branches, length of lateral branch, number of leaves per plant, root length, number of pods per plant, single seed weight and seed yield were significant at the 5% level and on pod yield at the 1% level. The interaction between water requirement and compost fertilizer showed the highest pod and seed yield in the 100% water requirement treatment with a water use of 431 mm and a consumption of 10 tons. Ha -1 of compost fertilizer, respectively, with an average of 4835 and 3143 kg.ha-1. The results of correlation of different traits with seed yield and stepwise regression analysis showed a significant effect of pod yield trait. In the correlation of traits, seed yield had a positive and significant correlation with pod yield traits (0.974**), length of lateral branch (0.721**) and number of lateral branches (0.671*). Pod yield also had a positive and significant correlation with length of lateral branch (0.745**) and number of lateral branches (0.693*).
Conclusion: In general, it can be concluded that adding compost to agronomy land increases soil moisture and promotes plant growth in the soil and helps increase the number of pegs and pods. This study showed that applying compost to the soil increased the ability to absorb nutrients and moisture, and compost improved plant growth and yield by providing the nutrients needed by the peanut plant.
