Abstract
The experiment was conducted to determine suitable composting method to convert agricultural by-product into organic fertilizer and evaluate effect on the growth and yield of cucumber in 2023 spring season. The experiments were carried out at the field of the Faculty of Agronomy, Vietnam National University of Agriculture. The traditional aerobic composting and mix aerobic composting were tested to compost agricultural by-products consisting of rice straw, chicken manure and elephant grass. Research results showed that the mix aerobic composting method produced higher mass and quality of compost in comparison with traditional method. Combination treatment of mix aerobic compost with chemical nitrogen fertilizers had a positive effect on growth, development and yields of cucumber than other treatments.
