Abstract

A field experiment was conducted on clay soil in Armanet section, Aluxor Government, Egypt during two seasons (2022/2023)to study the effects of using plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and different types of bacterial strains as biofertilizers. The experiment also tested the use of compost tea or vermicompost tea as organic foliar extracts. The results showed that the combination of PGPR, compost, and organic teas led to higher growth and yield of henna plants compared to traditional mineral fertilizers. The bio-organic fertilizers also had a positive effect on the microoranisms in the soil. Conclusions, using bio-organic fertilizers can improve henna plant productivity and reduce the need for mineral fertilizers, benefiting the environment.
