Journal Title: International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development - Year 2020, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
A plant bio stimulant is any substance or microorganism applied to plants with the aim to enhance nutrition efficiency, abiotic stress tolerance and or crop quality traits, regardless of its nutrients content.A research was conducted to determine the effect of bio stimulant on the growth of Cowpea Vignaunguiculata L. . Soil samples were collected from two local Government area of Kano state namely Dambatta and Makoda Sudan savanna . The result showed that across the soil there was no significant difference in the height of cowpea at week four of planting whereas a significant difference was observed in the Spad value. At week eight the result also showed that cowpea plant treated with bio stimulant in Makoda was significantly higher in terms of height, similarly for SPAD values. The least value in terms of height and chlorophyll content was recorded in control 1 and 2.The results also showed that the mean number of nodules was found to be higher in Cowpea inoculated with bio stimulant 8.90 followed by the Cowpea inoculated with bio stimulant and fertilizer 7.10 and the least root noodles was counted in control 1 4.1 . For root length, significant difference was detected at both week four and eight 7.6 and 16.2 in cowpea plant treated with bio stimulant in Makoda soil sample respectively. There is need to inoculate Cowpea since there was significant difference between the treatments.
