Promoting plant yield and quality improvement in saline alkali land by using biomass organic fertilizer and reducing chemical fertilizer measures.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
aimsThe agricultural development of saline alkali land has always been an important direction for improving land use efficiency and food production. The study aims to explore the effects of biomass organic fertilizer and reducing the use of chemical fertilizers on watermelons in saline alkali land, providing a scientific basis for the sustainable development of saline alkali agriculture.
methodsThe study selects a mixed application of biomass organic fertilizer and chemical fertilizer with different proportions, and compares the growth, yield, and quality of watermelon in saline alkali soil.
resultsThe research results indicated that the biomass organic fertilizer improved the growth rate and yield of watermelon in saline alkali soil. Compared with conventional fertilization treatment, the combination of biomass organic fertilizer and weight loss significantly increased soil organic matter content and promoted watermelon growth. In addition, watermelon treated with biomass organic fertilizer also performed better in terms of quality, including better fruit size, soluble solid content, and vitamin C content than conventional fertilizer treatment. The study also found that applying organic biomass fertilizer and weight loss in saline alkali land can increase the yield and quality of watermelons, and have a significant improvement effect on soil nutrients. This fertilization method could effectively increase the soil organic matter content and provide a more suitable environment for the growth of watermelons.
conclusionsThe above results indicate that the proposed combination has significant advantages in watermelon cultivation in saline alkali land, and is significant for the sustainable development of saline alkali agriculture.
