Variations in the performance, fruit shelf life, and mineral compositions of two varieties of pepper (Capsicum chinense ) grown under different soil amendments and seasons by Christopher Aboyeji, Aruna Adekiya, John Afolayan, Faith Okunlola, Barnabas Akaazua, Nifemi Adesola

“…Purpose: A study was carried out during the 2021 dry season and 2022 rainy season to evaluate the differences in the performance, fruit longevity, mineral, and vitamin C compositions of two varieties of pepper (Capsicum chinense) cultivated using different organic amendments and inorganic fertilizer as a check. Poultry manure (PM), Tithonia diversifolia (TD), cattle manure (CM), inorganic fertilizer (NPK 15:15:15), and the control (CTRL) were used as treatments.Method: Organic amendments were applied at a rate of 20 t ha-1, while NPK was applied at a rate of 180 kg ha-1. …”
