Agrohomoeopathy applies the principles of Homoeopathy to plant health management, aiming to stimulate physiological processes, improve nutrient uptake, and promote sustainable agriculture. Moringa oleifera, known as the “Miracle Tree,” is valued for its rich nutritional profile, particularly calcium and phosphorus, which are crucial for plant metabolism and human nutrition. Calcarea phosphorica 6C, a classical Homoeopathic tissue remedy, is associated with mineral assimilation, especially calcium and phosphorus. This study evaluated its efficacy in enhancing the mineral composition of Moringa oleifera leaves.

A prospective experimental study was conducted on 60 healthy Moringa oleifera saplings, randomly allocated into treatment (n = 30) and control (n = 30) groups. The treatment group received irrigation with Calcarea phosphorica 6C diluted in distilled water, while the control group was irrigated with potable water under identical conditions. Each group was divided into three subgroups (10 plants each), forming three composite replicates. Leaf samples were collected before and after a 60-day intervention, dried, powdered, and analyzed for calcium (g/100 g) and phosphorus (mg/100 g) using UV Absorption Spectrometry. Statistical Evaluation was performed using paired and independent t-tests.

The treatment group showed a statistically significant increase in phosphorus content compared to baseline (p = 0.0032) and relative to the control post-treatment (p = 0.0185). The control group exhibited only minimal, non-significant changes. No significant differences were observed in calcium content in either group, though minor variations occurred.

The findings indicate that Calcarea phosphorica 6C enhances phosphorus assimilation in Moringa oleifera leaves, highlighting its potential as an eco-friendly bio-enhancer. Although calcium remained unaffected, the results support further investigation into different potencies, longer durations, and larger samples to establish its role in sustainable agriculture, reducing chemical dependence, and improving crop nutritional value.
