Partitioning and wellbeing indicator common bean for soilless culture system

The impact of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-l9) has prompted the need to explore alternative culture systems at the household level to both increase people's resilience and close the gap of hunger inequality and under nutrition of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG-2). In this study, Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L) was grown using a soilless culture system (SCS) in three different household residences. The partitioning plant's behavior was observed for favorable impact from both organic and inorganic fertilizer treatments. Two-week-old common bean seedlings were grown in separate media consisting of organic fertilizer from chicken manure and inorganic fertilizer (NPK). Sprinkle-on media and foliar techniques were used to fertilize plants with inorganic Super-grow and organic fertilizer based on rice waste. As a control, Hoagland solution was used to irrigate plants in all locations. The result shows that both plants partitioning and shoot to root ratio were improved by the combination of chicken manure, NPK, and Hoagland. Super growth liquid fertilizer and rice waste fertilizer also showed similar positive results. However, the plants were inhibited when they came into contact with household wastewater containing detergent. We concluded that Common Bean could be adapted into the soilless culture system in household residences and also be integrated into the Biophysical economic circulatory model. Concurrently, more attention must be paid to the plant partitioning indicator while research scale-up has the potential to support the targets of the 7 SDGs. © 2022 Author(s).
