The phytochemical characterization of Amaranthus sp. leaves powder post MOLP green fertilizer treatment.

Moringa oleifera is known as a miraculous plant with multiple beneficial ingredients for humans and plant development. Besides, Moringa oleifera can effectively be utilized as a stimulant, environmentally friendly biopesticide, and the green source for several potential nutritional organic compounds. The Moringa oleifera derivates can be used in the agricultural system. The eco-friendly characteristic of Moringa oleifera, especially the leaf powder water extract, is the lowest cost alternative for green fertilizer and improving crop yields. The preparation of moringa leaf powder (MOLP) and its characterization were done to figure out the essential ingredients of these green materials. The MOLP water extract was treated with a 50% dose of the Amaranthus sp. plant for one month. Chemical analysis results show that MOLP has a high level of macronutrients for plant growth. Interestingly, in line with the MOLP characterization results, the Amaranthus sp. leaves powder also has a high level of chlorophyll, macronutrients, and micronutrients post MOLP water extract treatment. Thus, this preliminary data can be proposed as the hallmark for green fertilizer and biostimulant development to increase the nutritional values within the plant. MOLP water extract's soil intervention can help achieve a higher economic yield, particularly for the vegetable plant. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
