Effect of Superabsorbent Polymer Composite Filled Carbon Fiber Towards the Germination of Abelmoschus Esculentus

As agriculture activities are becoming major sector that contribute a lot of income to Malaysian economy, the sustainability of the soil and environment need to maintain to ensure the soil fertility is not affected by this growing sector. The application of superabsorbent polymer filled carbon fibe...
