TI  - The Effect of Farm Manure on Yield and Some Soil Properties in a Pear Garden in Yozgat
AB  - The aim of this study is to determine the effect of farm manure applied at two doses on some chemical and physical properties of the soil. In addition, it was conducted to determine the relationships between the contribution of improved soil health and quality to the development of pear trees. For this purpose, farmyard manure of EtruĢka variety grafted on a 6-year-old OHF 333 rootstock planted in Gedikhasanlı Research and Application Center was applied to the crown projection of the trees in three different doses (control, half dose: 5 kg tree-1 and full dose: 10 kg tree-1). At the end of the study, while there was no statistical difference between applications in 2018 and 2019 measurements in tree height measurements, 5 kg tree-1 and 10 kg tree-1 farm manure applications affected 2020 measurements significantly. When the number of shoots was examined, there was no statistical difference in the year of application (2018) and one year after (2019), while in 2020, 5 kg tree- 1 and 10 kg tree-1 farm manure applications were higher than control. With the application of 10 kg farm manure per tree, the organic matter content of the soil was increased from "low" level (1.02%) to "medium" level (3.03%) at the end of the first year. A similar situation was valid for 5 kg tree-1 dose application, although the increase in the amount of organic matter was lower (2.45%). At the end of the second year, while the level of organic matter in soils where high dose application was applied was preserved as "medium" (2.14%), the low dose application lost its effectiveness and the level of organic matter fell back to the "low" class (1.45%). The most effective application reducing bulk density and penetration resistance was 10 kg tree-1 dose.
