Özet

Vermicomposting is a low-price, environmentally companionable practice in which organic remnant is processed to raise fertility in agriculture. Humic substances in vermicompost improve the chemical and physical properties of soils and promote plant growth. For the study, soil samples were taken from 10 different points from EleOcirt district of Agri province. Grown in Sugar Beet Soils. Vermicompost was applied to the taken soils at 0, 2, 6 g to 1 kg of soil (0, 2, 6 g/1 kg/pot of soil). This work aims to determine the chlorophyll amount, antioxidant enzyme activity, and lipid peroxidation on Zea mays plants associated with vermicompost application. The results show that the application of vermicompost causes a decrease in catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, and guaiacol peroxidase enzyme activities and lipid peroxidation, but an increase in superoxide dismutase enzyme activity. Furthermore, vermi compost applications did not have a negative effect on plant growth. On the contrary, it increased plant growth.
