This study investigates optimized organic fertilizer application methods for enhancing buckwheat (<i>Fagopyrum esculentum</i>) productivity in semi-arid conditions.

Subsurface-banded poultry manure (BaPM) maximized chlorophyll <i>b</i> (4.0 µg/mL), carotenoids (2.30 µmol/mL), anthocyanin (0.02 µmol/mL), leaf area index (2.03), seed nitrogen (3.4%), and spikes per plant (17).
