In this study,
it was aimed to compare
nutritional status of organic and conventional oil-bearing rose (Rosa damascena Mill) gardens in Lakes Region.
For this, leaf and flower
samples were collected from oil-bearing rose gardens in Lakes Region, Isparta. In these samples nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron,
zinc, manganese, copper
and boron analyses
were made. When the leaf analysis results obtained from conventional and organic production areas were compared,
it was seen that nutrient concentrations of the leaves
from conventional gardens
were higher generally. And these results were significant in terms of nitrogen, manganese, and zinc concentrations. Similarly, flower nutrient concentration of conventional gardens
were higher for all examined
nutrients and differences between organic and conventional gardens for nitrogen,
potassium, calcium and iron concentrations were significant.
