The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of organic (cattle manure) and inorganic fertilizers (composite NPK (15:15:15)) and natural zeolites on soil properties, vegetative growth and yield of apple plants grown on vertisol under Cacak conditions (Western Serbia). The results showed that the combined fertilization induced a decrease in acidity, an increase in humus content, a partial increase in total nitrogen, and, primarily, a rise in available phosphorus and potassium levels. A highly significant interactive effect of the apple cultivars and nutrients on one-year-old shoot length and trunk cross-sectional area and a significant effect on yield per tree and yield per hectare were determined.
